If everything extracted you should be able to add the main .exe from the game folder to Steam now as a non steam game and use Proton that way (or do similar via Bottles or Lutris if you prefer).

Tricky part sometimes depending on the game is getting the right exe. I like bottles since you can do the Run executable to install which auto adds the .exe to bottles at the end, I needed this for Boltgun since I was picking a way wrong exe.

More fluffed crap to flood the internet but of course

Is this actively heated or just temperature controlled? From what I saw it just has vents to allow heat to escape (think leaving the door open when printing PLA).

If it was actively heated I would buy it in a heart beat, Voron doesn’t even like people talking about it due to the high danger if done wrong.

EDIT: Yeah just looks like the bed heater still unfortunately. I have a modded enclosed Ender 5 I just have a heat soak script tied to a thermistor midway up the frame so I’ll hold off until there’s an actual separate heating element. Hopefully soon!

Best part is it’s $5000 because they get to name their price. These sensors, headlights, etc, cost nowhere near that, but where else are you gonna go get em?

So in a few years when your new car has depreciated to somewhere around 10k and you get a massive repair bill? Well most people are scrapping it and getting another car, convenient for them…

Install them with Bottles or Lutris

Same here, saw the writing on the wall after 7 and tried Linux gaming a few times but it was rough back then so I always came back. I did however start at least dual booting with 7 onwards so apart from gaming I was a convert at that time.

This year finally got tired of all the crap, them trying to railroad AI junk in, ruining the control panel, absolutely BURYING settings, turning ones back on with updates, the entire operating system is a dark pattern when it used to be so much more streamlined. Switched to Bazzite and it feels like I’m almost back to Windows 7 except I don’t have to install drivers or anything, just install it, add any apps through the store and you’re off. What they’ve done to windows is ridiculous to me and I’ll never come back.

Chronically online detected: please go outside

I used Lutris before but I do Bottles now, fitgirl worked on both fantastic for me

I would extend this outside of protesting if you question your safety in the upcoming years at all. Obviously not open carrying but concealed with a permit if necessary in your state, even California’s qualifications are pretty simple and they’re usually the more strict of the states. Supreme court already ruled police have 0 obligation to protect you even if you’re actively being assaulted and they’re ten feet away so I personally will take my safety into my own hands and deal with any potential consequences if I’m ever unfortunate enough to need to use it (CCW insurance isn’t a bad idea for legal battles that may follow, don’t use USCCA they’ll deny coverage for any stupid reasons).

Obviously it’s not something every wants to or can do, some people aren’t comfortable with the idea and that’s totally fine. If you’re unsure maybe go to your range and rent one for the day and have them help or a friend help you out and see if you even want to go that route at all. It’s absolutely not for everyone.

Some sort of self defense is never a bad idea though and it’s usually a ton of fun. Being dangerous both armed and unarmed is great but one is better than none. BJJ, Muay Thai, kickboxing, boxing, anything will set you above most people who do nothing, will even odds against larger adversaries and has a lot of benefits for mobility later in life (hip mobility is huge). You don’t have to compete and get in a ring without headgear on to learn to defend yourself, technical sparring is light and usually turns into a fun challenge of reaction time and speed. BJJ competitions are pretty safe all around. Having striking and grappling is never a bad combo because you never know if someone’s going to tackle you and nullify your striking ability.

I believe I was printing Overture petg around 250 on a brass nozzle, I do around 270 stainless and it’s fantastic. I run a dual 5015 satsana duct (v2 with removable ducts) and keep the fan speed fairly low which seems to help get the airflow perfect

No thanks

I would imagine you could run into an issue like this building off an M1 or newer Mac and deploying to a Linux based env. We’ve run into a bit of an adjustment with our docker image builds where we need to set the buildarch or else it fails to deploy.

Our build times aren’t blazingly fast, typically around 4 minutes for npm/yarn build for frontend apps and loading the data to the image and any other extras like composer installs. Best time saving for us was doing a base image for all the dependency junk that we do a nightly on

WPEngine has been trash for a few years now but this felt like a weird way to handle it, I don’t love that they gobbled up ACF and DeliciousBrains and slowly began enshittifying their products which do feel almost necessary to core

My brother needed the driver installed in debian on Qubes but has been flawless beyond that. When I was still running arch it just worked out of the box

I did this with Qubes a year ago and haven’t had any issues apart from figuring out the right flags to get the full performance, otherwise the GPU would cap around 30% under load with low CPU load.

Kind of at the mercy of what your motherboard and bios will allow, mine I had to cheese a little and disable the PCI device on boot so I get to decrypt my disk with no screen lol but it works!

Not op but I do a lot of architecture and infrastructure work on top of my normal dev work so keeping everything separated and per-client has become a pretty important advantage for me personally

Fwiw I had to tinker a bit to get good video playback, Fedora was always choppy for me for some reason but debian is typically smooth with hw accel disabled.

As for the gaming, depending on your setup (I have a desktop and T480 I keep in sync) you can absolutely run two video cards and do PCI passthrough on one to a gaming VM. I have mine set up with a dedicated NIC and USB card and just use a KVM to swap between Qubes and Windows (for now) and it’s worked really well. Had to play around a ton to get the full speed out of the GPU though and it only seemed to work in windows so hopefully get that going for a Linux hvm one day.

Absolutely agree there is no going back, I have all of my work stuff entirely hardware agnostic and a full on replica of my work desktop ready to go in a moment should the desktop die. Apart from that keeping client work isolated has been such a game changer.

Fwiw I used to daily an x210 and then an x230 in IT and pretty frequently typed with one hand while carrying with another without the weight bugging me but your mileage may vary.

You can definitely send them flying and not damage them my coworker launched theirs across the office and the bezel just snapped back together.

I have a T480 now since I do more dev work and needed a slightly bigger keyboard/screen and it’s phenomenal with Qubes and 48gb of memory on the quad core i5. Love the ease to repair I just swapped a motherboard on it in around 30 minutes and was back up and running

Just research ahead and don’t buy one with a known hardware defect such as the 5As which are notorious for frying motherboards and screens. Went through 5 of them with the extended warranty over my phones life and they all died while in my hand abruptly. Less than a year or life per device almost always failing around 8 months for me.

If grapheneOS wasn’t so damn good I would’ve left pixels after that, Pixel XL abruptly died, 2XL had both cameras and the fingerprint sensor die out of nowhere, then the 4 5As. On an 8a right now and love it so fingers crossed it lasts!

If they had a user repairable device that ran it I’d buy it in a heartbeat

This is pretty great advice to get into it. I previously ran 3 poweredge 2950s but have since switched to nothing self hosted and back to everything self hosted but on a much leaner setup with a NUC and 14tb WD my book drive with a dual Noctua 4020 fan shroud I 3d printed that it absolutely needed as I killed the original drive in two weeks.

My replica is just a 14tb in my desktop I run rsync to pull the data occasionally after checking SMART status on the primary. It’s not versioned or perfect but it works great to give me a chance to backup my jellyfin media. Everything I care about also gets backed up via restic.

Eventually plan to run a build with the Modcase MASS with multiple drives but for now this setup has been working fantastic.
