I didn't play Stardew Valley because YOU made me sign a blood oath that I wouldn't.

Garuda on Surface Pro 5 - performance nightmare in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

Frankly, that leaves you with two options:

Be patient and learn, so eventually you have a working system.
Don't have a working system.

The Surface Pro is a very proprietary device. It requires the extra work in order for Linux to function on it.

There are communities of people who will be happy to help you on your journey to learn, but unless you go through the effort you won't solve your problem.

On the one hand, that outfit doesn't seem very practical for most things.

On the other hand, if the world is destroyed and you're barely encountering other people... fuck it, I guess!

No.

No.

I'm a trans drummer with a naked cat who approves disability applications, AMA in c/askmeanything@lemmy.ca

[–] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

How does your cat's nudity contribute to your skill at drumming?

Since those two facts were included in the same sentence, I must assume they are inexorably related.

Bolt & Whalington, a unique metroidvania with a "meta" mechanic that rewrites the game, is announced for PC with an unknown release window in c/metroidvanias@infosec.pub

That's not even marketing speak. I'm an actual marketing copywriter.

It's a bland description of a type of game and of game features. Nothing exciting about how it's written.

Since the dev replied to me, I was thinking of offering them free help, since it's a competitive marketplace and I like seeing small developers succeed. except then I saw they used AI in the game's development. Hard pass.

Help making system wake up to keyboard (sh.itjust.works)

Hello! New to Bazzite, and have a system running great. There's just one thing I'm having trouble with: I want the system to wake up from a sleep state when it detects signal from a keyboard/mouse.

I tried following this guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/848698/wake-up-from-suspend-using-usb-device

It seems straightforward enough, and even though that's Ubuntu, I saw buses were set to "disabled." So I tried writing the rc.local, but it still won't wake up, even though the devices have power.

Am I missing something? Or can anyone point me to a better reference? Thanks in advance.

Tried out my new soldering iron tonight. (sh.itjust.works)

Worked on a friend's AC power adapter, the cord had gotten cut. Just a simple two-wire cord, nothing too complicated.

Didn't do a perfect job with the heat shrink tubing, but still made good connections and it'll be safe to use.

Wish I had upgraded my soldering iron sooner. The old one didn't heat nearly as evenly as this one.

As an added bonus, it literally looks like shit, too!

As I sat there, at my desk in my office, the sun slowly sank from high in the heavens; soon, nightfall would bathe the landscape in blue-black darkness, smothering the world outside my window. (sh.itjust.works)

I sat there for a long while before the crying began, resonating up from beneath the creaky floorboards - and I smiled, a toothy grin slowly spreading across my face... because I knew my work was only just beginning.

Had nearly all the parts lying around, so I put this thing together.

I wanted to add stereo speakers, but it's hard to find good wiring diagrams for such a niche thing. So, mono for now.

The motherboard has a bad cartridge slot. So I designed and printed a custom speaker holder that fits into the cartridge slot. All pressure fitted, no glue.

Everything works so far. Just waiting for a new shoulder button/SD slot cable, so I can finish it up and load up some GBA games. :)
