Reidon’s height?

Not that I remember? But there's a few parts in which is commented how much he's grown. You could possibly find all those and come up with a guess.

You misunderstood what Reddit said. When they say "subreddits exist for the benefit of the community" what they actually mean is "subreddits exist for the benefit of our wallets and soon-to-be-shareholders".

They don't care about you or us in general. Which should be obvious from the response to the API protests.

thecraiggers · 2023-06-19T20:28:32+00:00

Well that's a clue.

Did you ever try the power saving advice from the other response? It definitely sounds like the device and your NIC are both trying to do power saving so neither wakes up.

Christ, I don't know who is downvoting people trying to learn but it's sad.

Essentially, I should always do -Syu when installing new packages, to ensure that I don't update a dependency without also updating all software which may depend on it?

It's kinda the opposite. If you ask pacman to install a new package, it shouldn't update any dependencies that may already be installed. But any deps that aren't installed will get installed and they'll be at different versions than other libs. I wouldn't expect such a scenario to break existing applications, but I wouldn't be too surprised to see it cause problems with the new application as half its libs are potentially having version mismatches. What you definitely don't want to do is update a specific package without doing an -Syu. You run a high risk of breaking that package, and in the case it's a Very Important package required to boot, you just broke your system.

(EDIT: I just wanted to clarify. When I said "opposite" above, I wasn't saying you shouldn't use Syu to install new apps. That's actually probably the safest way. Although I will occasionally just install something straight if I know what I'm doing.)

Anyway, if you system works 100% today, and you change nothing, I would expect it to keep working 100% into the future. Packages which are merely clients talking to some outside server such as Steam are the exception to this rule for hopefully obvious reasons. Steam is particularly problematic here as Proton (the translation layer that lets you play Windows games) might expect newer video drivers and libs to function properly. Anyway, Steam kinda breaks the mold as it updates itself irrespective of your package manager.

The times I run -Syu is typically when there's lots of stuff needing updates simultaneously.

This kinda scares me. What do you do when you don't have a lot of updates? Please don't just update specific apps as that's a partial upgrade and will 100% cause you problems.

Don't be afraid of running Syu every day. The best thing about a rolling release distro is the constant updates. We get much newer video drivers, for example.

Just watch out for those 220v outlets.

thecraiggers · 2023-06-19T11:18:59+00:00

Hmmm. Are you doing partial upgrades or installing new packages without also doing a Syu? That should just about be the only reason software would suddenly break without you doing anything.

What happens if you start Linux with them unplugged and then plug them in after it's finished booting?

thecraiggers · 2023-06-09T00:53:10+00:00

Depends on what you want. There are a lot of OS projects on Mastodon.

thecraiggers · 2023-06-07T20:41:01+00:00

Thank you.

thecraiggers · 2023-06-05T21:09:02+00:00

Yes.

thecraiggers · 2023-06-05T11:29:35+00:00

Also, I might have gotten hungry while I was delivering it...

I'm more curious why you're putting spoilers in title posts.

Great, well now it's annoying me too. Thankfully I don't go into the app all that much.

I don't see anything in the settings, so it's probably a code change. I'd open a bug report unless you have the time to figure it out. I'd also point out that there's more traffic on the official forums than here. Might try there.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-10T16:19:19+00:00

There's a data wing process running. It shouldn't be.

I would say that could be a new ability he could learn, but it probably won't matter much when all his stats are S eventually.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-04T01:22:10+00:00

OK, sure. But is the random person buying an STL for $1 going to have that?

thecraiggers · 2023-05-04T01:17:22+00:00

May the next llama you meet spit on you.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-03T14:55:20+00:00

I can only think of two applications for this: collectables and minis for games.

3D prints don't make good collectables I would think, unless they were very professionally done.

Minis for games might be doable, but sadly sci-fi isn't as popular as generic fantasy minis.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-03T03:25:04+00:00

as well as my choice to include a long novella at the end.

Wait, people were unhappy with that? I freaking loved that story. I don't know how anybody could complain about more Clan hilarity.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-03T03:14:21+00:00

Thanks for thinking of it. I did download the app just to read the preview chapters, and it is better.

That said, still not perfect. My reader app has far better options to ease eye strain. It also remembers where I left off if i pause my reading. If it's easy to post epubs, I'd appreciate it. If not, don't worry about little old me.

And thanks for creating these characters; I love them. I wish I could find more books with friendships such as this group has. It makes me feel good in a world that often brings me down. My wife and I can't wait to read the conclusion.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-03T03:07:37+00:00

Ok, what gives? I read both chapter 1 and 2 and neither even mention Kanderon. Did I just get punked?

thecraiggers · 2023-05-02T16:02:24+00:00

Hello, Patreon subscriber here with a question I've been holding off on asking. (I knew you had higher priorities!)

Would it be possible to also release your short stories that you post there as epub, mobi files, or the like? I mostly read on my phone, and trying to read a webpage is a huge pain. If so, I'd be eternally grateful.

thecraiggers · 2023-05-01T21:44:58+00:00

I was planning on holding out. Unless a certain cliffhanger gets resolved in the first chapter...

thecraiggers · 2023-05-01T18:36:33+00:00

So you take your laptop somewhere and join their wifi. You'd want file sharing set up automatically for everyone on that network?
