Sentinel… From waaay back. Like, Commodore 64 age. I think it would be a perfect VR game, too.

WildStar got done dirty… It hit at the wrong time, but was so much fun. I could never get any friends to play with me. Le sigh.
sudo apt dist-upgrade Then reboot?
(I think. Not an expert.)
Honestly? I found it suggested on that other site. Something to do with the kernel modules. All I know is that I had no working GPU, ran that, rebooted, and then everything was gold.
I had to depmod -a, before then my gaming was messed up.
Super Mario 2: Don’t you pick up that key! Hey, put that key down!
Not that Alanis Morissette song?
Trying to add my user to wheel: sudo groupmod -a wheel Deleted my group membership in everything but wheel. That was fun! Remote system too! Edit: I still don’t remember the syntax. Geez.
This is such a short, sweet game, runs on everything: Portal. Even my mom likes it!
I’m currently ignoring my project for my Servers class… Instead, I’m reading up on how to migrate my NextCloud into my Proxmox. Oh crap!
Agreed! That’s a couple steps after you convert into a full-blown LiNerd, but I have a Ventoy nestled next to my portable Mint. I landed on Ventoy after I snagged an IODD-2541 and decided that someone had to have implemented the concept in software.
I’m old. Mint 15 XFCE, I burnt an installed copy onto a thumb drive, and ran into a weird grub glitch. Asked on a Mint forum, and Clem himself (maker of Mint) wrote me a detailed how-to-fix. Warm fuzzy feelings for Mint.
To quit vim is simple!
Just get a second computer, network with the first one, SSH into the first one, find the process ID of vim, and pkill! Easy as pie!
One of my favorite things about Linux is this: you can try it. Get a thumb drive, get Rufus or Etcher. Download Mint, Ubuntu, something with a “Live Linux”. Boot from the thumb drive, spend an hour or two surfing, clicking around, seeing if things work. 2018, you had like an 80% chance of a flawless experience. 2024, it’s way higher! Plus, the alternatives have gotten slower, more bloated, more interested in monetizing you than serving you, so even if it feels strange, and you have to relearn some stuff, more than ever, it might be worth it.
Even if it didn’t work quite right, keep the thumb drive around. The number of times I’ve rescued an important file off of a messed up system using a thumb drive with Mint on it? You’d be surprised.
I’m no big gamer, but my gaming laptop is a Ryzen with RTX3060, and I dual boot it (Fedora and Windows 10.) I used the rpmfusion Nvidia drivers, no issue, and I get slightly better frame rates and a bit better 3D mark scores in Fedora than Windows. It’s been that way since 37 or 36, I think. Palworld, Monster Hunter World and Rise, Genshin Impact (I know, I know), Borderlands, EDF 5, all work great, along with some retro stuff like City Of Heroes and EQ99. So, I guess I’d like to know why I shouldn’t use Fedora with Nvidia? Also, when you say production machine, do you mean like a server? I’m a student.
I feel like I should throw in a good word for Fedora. I run a combination of dnf and flatpak, and have a grand time, and am doing an IT diploma program aimed very solidly at Windows under Fedora. I’ve used Ubuntu, Mint, and Manjaro, and landed on Fedora for my desktop experience.
Loving Lemmy! Never felt like it was worth posting on Reddit, this place feels like some weird, dysfunctional, extended family.
I have a 2013 MacBook Air. No issues. I have open core legacy patcher on the Mac OS side to push me well past the cut off for the OS, but it’s slow. The Ubuntu side works great still. Good battery life and the battery is still the original, I believe. I don’t remember ever changing it out. Been meaning to switch to LMDE or something, but I had a number of false starts dual booting back when I did it and have been busy.
I’ve had success with an NTFS partition, but I’ve pretty much just used it like a buffer. If I want to move something from one OS to the other, in it goes, reboot, out it comes. Never lost anything that way. This is Ubuntu and MacOS on an ancient MacBook Air.
I own the remake, and I actually had a fan site for it… And got to interview John Freaking Carpenter for that fan site, as he did the music for Sentinel Returns. It was exactly as awesome as it sounds.
