I see. I would suggest looking up other environment variables the Steam Deck sets on boot, but since this doesn't look to be the case, my second suggestion would be hardware spoofing.

But even then, it just doesn't make any sense. Why support only the Steam Deck specifically when it's well known that Valve is updating SteamOS to make it work with other handheld devices like the Legion Go? Assuming they put some kind of hardware checking in the game initialization phase, why go through all this effort just to lose potential players?

Might be unrelated, but Marvel Rivals has a similar problem. If you just download it and play straight away, it won't open; you have to set an initialization flag SteamDeck=1 to make it open (source)

Maybe it's the same situation and this flag solves the problem, or maybe it's something similar

He'll probably go to jail, since there's a ton of evidence against him and his cronies, and most of right-leaning here won't pick a fight with our supreme court just to bail him out.

The real problem is: he won't really pay for his crimes in jail. Because he's a retired army captain, he'll go to a military prison, just like Braga Netto (his ex minister), and while in there he'll have access to cable TV, expensive wine and cigars, and whatnot. For context, our prisoners have a miserable life here: expired food, overpopulated cells and threats from organized crime leaders. Bolsonaro wouldn't last a single day in a common prison here, but because of his age and military rank, there's no scenario where this happens.

The only one who can make him pay is the devil himself, and I really hope he pays Bolsonaro a visit soon enough

What pisses me off the most is that the local police rescued them. For context, Brazilian police is known for being extremely violent, shooting unarmed people, throwing suspects from bridges and even killing suspects with an improvised gas chamber; all of this mostly based on color.

If they were black or had a lot of tattoos, police would say they were gang members or drug traffickers, shoot them from behind and fake the crime scene.

Keep 'em coming, we'll show them why Brazil isn't for the faint of heart. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

P. S.: o que genocida tem mais que a gente? Tem mais é que se fuder muito KKKKKKKKKKKKKK

I was talking about Westworld, an HBO show about AI, androids and "humanity". And yes, I know the original quote is from Romeo and Juliet, but quoting Dolores fits perfectly given the context

Yeah, it's easily one of my favorites, even though I've never finished it. I was deep into the third season, then I googled something about the show and discovered the last season got cancelled. I thought it was pointless to continue, since one entire season is a gap too big to fill with theories.

Just another brick in the wall of cancelled masterpieces, just like the TF2 Webcomic.

I tested this today with a friend, and apparently it doesn't need to be a video call, just a regular voice call is enough to do screen share.

I didn't test with a group call though, so I can't tell if it only works with two people.

Linux Mint é a opção padrão para novos usuários, como os camaradas já ressaltaram.

Recomendaria também o ZorinOS, que tem uma interface padrão bem familiar ao Windows e já vem bem completinho; além de que tem a versão lite (se não descontinuaram, não sei informar se ainda distribuem), que roda bem em máquinas antigas.

E por último, recomendaria Pop!_OS, ele tem uma versão que já vêm com os drivers da NVIDIA pré-instalados e tem a Pop Shop, pra caso queria baixar programas sem usar o terminal. Ele usa GNOME, uma interface totalmente diferente do Windows, o que pode dificultar um pouco a transição, mas fora isso, acho uma boa por evitar a dor de cabeça com os drivers de placa de vídeo logo de cara.

Hey everyone. I've been playing on Linux using proton for a while and stumbled across this scenario: you click "play" and the game won't start, it doesn't even bring up the "compiling vulkan shaders" card sometimes. This post is about a fix I've been using and wanted to share.

Use a process analyser (I use htop) to search for a process with the word "DIRECTX" or "DXSETUP". This process should run right after you install the game and click to play for the first time, as a post-install script. In my experience, this process usually hangs and stops the game starting sequence. Since I know my Proton setup already have DirectX updated, I kill this process (using signal 9 - SIGKILL) and the game starts booting normally.

I'm currently using GE-Proton8-14 and Pop!_OS 22.04

 

Well, everybody born in the american continent is technically "american" too, including Central and South America. Is there a specific term in english for these people?

Edit: Thanks for all your answers, especially the wholesome ones and those patient enough to explain it thoroughly. Since we (South Americans) and you (North Americans) use different models/conventions of continent boundaries, it makes sense for you to go by "Americans", while it doesn't for us.

 

I've recently discovered Radicle, which is a P2P code hosting platform, and I liked its concepts a lot. Any of you guys heard of or used it?
