Some sites set it up so Gravatar is the default but I don’t know if that automatically sets up an account or not

Cool! Yeah, I remember using V1 for Dwarf Fortress back then. Was quite useful to set up the generic layouts! Will keep an eye on it! Having V2 support would be nice even if I don’t use it much these days myself 🙂

Speaking of Dwarf…[Read more]

Lovely! And that’s given me another book to read! 😀

And got a new one that just came up in my feed:

Not even sure what genre it is but the melody is absolutely amazing! For some reason, it makes me visualize Bilbo’s visit to Rivendell in The Hobbit

Not yet, still haven’t decided on a VR headset but now that things are set up and functioning I’ll begin the research in earnest! 🙂

Will probably be looking at Valve’s and HTC’s offerings as the Facebook requirement of an Oculus is a bit of a drawback

Yep, I’m sure I’ll get used to it. Just used to cases using a 200mm top fan, which are pretty…[Read more]

Is this thread ready for me to reply to? Sorry, it never showed up in the stats and was listed as unread two weeks ago when it was hidden so I didn’t realize that you had made it visible

Seeing similar issues. The stats don’t update and it still thinks the posts that are no longer hidden are still hidden as per the notice in the top bar. Let’s hope they get it fixed!

Nope. Not sure how it connects but I’ll see if I can find out!

Yeah, the change takes a bit of getting used to. Most VR headsets have their own speakers so the speaker configuration shouldn’t affect it 🙂

Spent yesterday testing things out. A couple of hours in No Man’s Sky and no issues at all. 🙂

Fans are a bit loud but that’s to be expected…[Read more]

There should be a way to reset the orphaned accounts. Had that happen to me a time or two on other sites. I think they used to automatically create a dummy account for users way back when just to sync up avatars before official registration but I’m not sure about that.

Ah, gotcha. 🙂

Oh, no! Hopefully it’ll be okay!

Let’s hope someone can! That is completely foreign to me. I don’t want to say Greek as Greek is used in math!

Not yet! Still watching sloppy horror films! Yesterday was Humanoids from the Deep! The sexual content was a bit overdone and reminded me of Galaxy of Terror. Corman did have a part in the film so it’s probably not too much of a surprise

Also caught The Burning which was a lot of fun. It even has Jason Alexander in a very early role and you can…[Read more]

To reinstall the bootloader in my situation, I just had to do the following steps:

apt install --reinstall linux-image-generic linux-headers-generic
update-initramfs -c -k all
sudo bootctl --path=/boot/efi install

And audio works! 🙂 Only two speakers work, though, as the onboard sound only has a single line out port compared to the old system.…[Read more]

systemd-boot doesn’t have any customization options, sadly. It just provides a list of bootable options. I’d love to have a graphical representation for the boot menu even if it’s just seen for a few seconds. I like a little eye candy!

Fixing it wasn’t really much of an issue in my case, likely due to installing Windows on a separate drive…[Read more]

Installing Windows was rather complicated but it’s done. If anyone reads this and needs help: for System76 Thelio machines, you must choose the ISO option from Microsoft and not the MCT. The latter won’t been seen by motherboard. After you get the ISO, you need to create it using something like Rufus so it can install a dummy bootloader to it to…[Read more]

When trying to make nested lists, the UI pukes. Instead of creating a new list tag, it wants to close the main list. So one needs to manually type in the tag structure if they want to make a nested list. Annoying!

Yeah, the cache has been a bit odd lately. It hasn’t been updating as often as it used to so something definitely changed there

No issues arose while watching 4k videos or playing 0AD so now i can begin the long grind of figuring out what I need and getting things installed/set up. Will probably wait on Windows for a day or so so that I can reacquaint myself with Linux. 🙂

I haven’t really used KDE all that much, to be honest. Each time I’ve tried, I’ve had a variety of issues with it such as freezing, application crashes, and sluggish behavior. I really want to be able to use it as it’s gorgeous so I may give it another go soon. With all the developments with *nix GPU support, perhaps it’ll work much better…[Read more]

Yeah, it’s a static blue. It would be nice if it only showed up when there were unread posts but clicking the unread icon on the subforums seems to do the trick as well. I can remove it if it’s getting in the way 🙂

We have ignition! Going to start testing it in a few minutes (posting from it now 🙂 ). Once I’ve done some good testing with 0ad I can start setting things up properly. Going to take a bit. It’s been a long time so I’m going to have to get used to things again but shouldn’t take too long! I may also need to install the AMD drivers for better…[Read more]

Each item in a list needs to be denoted with the list item tag. The list type tags contain them and are only used once.

Not exactly lost. I knew where it should have been, it had just been buried under other things 😛

Not sure. I may use it for the coilgun when I get to it. At the moment, though, it’s a bit humid to be working in the garage.

Not bad temperature wise, only about 89F, but the humidity is absolutely terrible. The heat index as a result is over 100F!…[Read more]
