    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 🙂

    Weird! About all I can think of is a potential phishing attempt unless the folks over at the NYT bought them. They do have an interesting list of products (including former ownership of sports teams) but that doesn’t appear to be one of them. It’s also possible the system they use for emails got its wires crossed

    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 performance. Will check on that before the testing 🙂

    I probably do need to increase the font scaling, though. Everything looks so small on the monitor for my poor eyes 😛

    in reply to: No Bullets or Numbers for UL, OL #735

    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.

    • test
    • test
    <ul>
    	<li>test</li>
    	<li>test</li>
    </ul>
    

    🙂

    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! Even in the 70s, I’m drenched after just a short time.

    Saw this one yesterday and, as far as slasher films go, it was really good.

    Also saw Clue the other day and that was a blast!

    in reply to: HTML Entity Parsing #701

    And fixed 🙂

    Still need to determine the right property value for display, though

    in reply to: Random #695

    Oh! I found my soldering iron! 😀

    in reply to: Random #691

    Awesome images! I should browse Deviant Art more often!

    For a ship, the clowns could have a mini ship like a clown car 😛

    Cool! Didn’t know about such a device. Will definitely need to read more about it!

    I was thinking of setting geothermal generators in the volcanoes but TEGs could also be handy! How big can they be before efficiency tanks, I wonder? I don’t see that mentioned in the article. The idea with volcanoes is definitely worth exploring more!

    in reply to: HTML Entity Parsing #686

    So apparently, the h1 and h2 tags are set to display: none so only h3 will work. I’ve fixed the issue by setting the display to unset, which resets things back to the default behavior 🙂

    Let me know if there’s anything out of whack! No idea why they would hide the h1 and h2 tags

    Edit:

    Looks like it caused the title to appear on the forum index. Guess that was a header tag 😛

    I may be able to fix that issue. I clean forgot about the descendant selectors. It’s been too long since I worked with this stuff! It’ll come back to me as I go!

    Hmm, unset may not do what I thought it does. The default is block but unset causes it to show inline….

    The property value of unset is new to me as it didn’t exist last time I was working with CSS

    I’ve set up a new section to hold testing threads since some of the bugs we’ve encountered break other posts in a thread. 🙂

    in reply to: HTML Entity Parsing #681

    Seems to be working here. Which editor are you using?

    Sorry for the new topic. Wasn’t sure if you were done with the old sandbox posts

    in reply to: Random #668

    We should harness the heat from volcanoes for practical purposes. Many metals can withstand the temperatures so there’s no reason not to!

    in reply to: Legend of Zelda #657

    Mostly cleared and explored that area! Still need to find the last shrine and complete the other one, which I’ll do later. Just wasn’t in the mood for it 😛

    I love how hidden cave entrances are now marked with Blupees (a blue spirit/rabbit thing that gives money when struck). Makes it much easier to explore!

    And I got the Hylian shield! It was incredibly easy: all I did was summon a boat and then lit a pyre. Voila!

    in reply to: Random #656

    We need a show about literal clowns that develop a space program. Why? Why not! 😀

    in reply to: Sounds and Music #650

    Amazing! Sounds just like a bird!

    Had a new one crop up in my YT feed:

    Absolutely love it!

    in reply to: Films & TV Shows #649

    Rewatched the Toxic Avenger the other day and it’s a blast! 😀

    And caught Dead & Buried yesterday and it was quite good!

    in reply to: Random #648

    😛

    Sorry, was referring to these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_(journal) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nature_(journal) 🙂

    Cool! Wish we still had catalogues like that but they mostly stopped about fifteen years ago. I miss them as they were quite fun 🙁

    Sure! Would provide more atmosphere! 😀

    Yep, Doctorow has some intriguing ideas. Used to read him on Boing Boing back when he was a regular contributor.

    xkcd used to have some fun with him, too 😛

    in reply to: Unsubscribe Topic Issue #643

    Good that it’s known about. Hopefully they can get it fixed in the next update! 🙂

    in reply to: Computer Setup #641

    Yeah, I may need to ask them on their forums if I decide I don’t like Pop OS

    Nice list! Will keep it handy!

    Yeah, if it weren’t for the poor VR support, I’d probably try forgoing Windows entirely. I also may need to install the drivers for the fan controller.

    Hopefully *nix VR support will reach feature parity with Windows soon!

    We definitely need to get something cooking! On that note, we’ll probably want an ideas thread at some point 🙂

    It’s got two 1 TB NVM drives. I plan on putting Windows on one and *nix on the other so that should help. I don’t use a whole lot of space, generally, so hopefully that will be enough. Sounds good, will look into the health reports 🙂

    I always try to turn off autosaving with applications and games partly to reduce wear and tear on the drive but coding has a lot of writes due to the nature of it so splitting up the use of the drives should help somewhat 🙂
