  • Help me change my windows gaming pc to Linux
  • Mentioned elsewhere in the thread I think but not in a direct reply so making sure you see it, Lutris has the game specific scripts but also ones to set up environments for Origin/EA App. I've used those before with Sims 4 with both several expansion packs and some custom content.

  • How PayPal Shares Your Data
  • Hello! Thank you for the post to World News. Just wanted to let you know that submissions like this one might be more appropriate in our Technology community, for future reference.

  • Difference between Manjaro and EndeavourOS
  • I've been using EOS for about a year and a half, and for the year and a half I used Manjaro, and this is spot on. EOS is just a better experience, plus they've got much cooler default backgrounds!

  • Hello! It looks like you are bridging this over from Mastodon. Is there any way you could include a title or description that would carry over? Otherwise this just looks like a spam post to Lemmy users.

  • Video game publishers are starting to use "anti-DEI" as a marketing meme
  • While it can be tempting (especially with posts like this one) if you cannot respond to a comment or post that is not be(e)ing nice in a productive manner, please just report it so that a moderator can deal with it.

  • Advent of Code 2024
  • I'm doing it in Python, thought about Go but I didn't get far last year with Rust so I decided to keep it simple. I'm through the first 3 days and cooking up an unorthodox approach to day 4

  • GenAI killed music discovery for me. How are folks discovering HUMAN music in the modern era?
  • Been getting most of my new stuff via youtube recommendations, not of music but music videos. Then if I like it I track them down elsewhere and listen to more tracks

  • US judge strikes down Biden overtime pay rule
  • I was curious so I looked it up and this time it's actually not the Northern district in Texas, but the Eastern district. Still a Trump appointed judge though

  • Steam store pages are now required to disclose kernel-level anti-cheat [2024-10-30]
  • This comment is at best confusing and at worst an attempt at an insult. Please try to be clearer in the future, as well as be(e)ing nice.

  • How do I clean a cinderblock?
  • It's not chipped, those are premium beveled edges!

  • Twike EV pedal powered enclosed e-trike vehicle
  • A youtuber I like has made not one but two videos about Twike, one about a Twike he bought and one about when he visited their HQ

  • People who wear glasses, what are some things someone new to glasses should know?
  • People have mostly covered the important stuff, so something less important is: if you are liable to take them off with any regularity, you're gonna lose them on top of your head! I keep mine on pretty much any time I'm awake and not doing something specifically anti glasses (think swimming), but I know especially people who are farsighted while watching TV or nearsighed while reading will do this.

  • People who wear glasses, what are some things someone new to glasses should know?
  • Also, in ear headphones and speakers exist if you are like me and can't find a pair of on/around ear headphones that don't make your ears sad when you wear your glasses.

  • Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of August 11th
  • I am back on Elite Dangerous after taking some time to focus on Deep Rock Galactic in the first half of the year. I now have a second flight stick and did a little community class on flight assist off flying. Plus there have been lots of updates coming out. Taking advantage of the new engineering changes to build a really good combat ship and then going to focus on getting to Elite in combat probably, which also helps me practice my faoff flying.

  • Based on the content of the linked post and the evolution of the thread here, the mod team has decided to lock this post. There is an important difference between standing up for people who are marginalized and harassment, which this thread has been more or less equating. Please deal with this topic in a more nuanced manner going forward.
