I'm really getting over the enshitification of the internet.
  • Well, nothing of worth on social media tbh. Reddit and lemmy might be exeptions, but they're getting worse too (reddit more so ofc, but still)

  • The computer ain't gonna tell me when to restart. I decide that, not it. And it's not getting regular restarts. Hell, my phone bugs me about restarting after i don't do it for a month, and the fucking notification won't fuck off. Can't bloody stand it

    Do You Have a Fire Extinguisher in Your Home and is it Still Pressurized?
  • Not really, my family looked at me like i was mad when i suggested it. Got an out of date powder extinguisher from Volvo tho. Seems to be intact

  • Better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it.

    Long as you don't go overboard, i think it's perfectly reasonable to have something to defend yourself with. Granted, i would think a reasonable amount of guns to have for home defence would be 1, but i'm european so i dunno

  • What stopped working:

    • GzDoom (native, black screen after choosing .wad)
    • Orcs Must Die 1 & 2 (proton, either doesn't launch at all, or launches with severe graphical issues such as the menu and buttons missing or the whole thing being pink and green)
    • serious sam tfe, tse; painkiller black (wine via either bottles or pol, extreme speedup every 5 seconds)
    • luxor 3 (bottles, crashes on launch)
    • hotline miami 2 (proton, crash on launch)
    • lego indy 2 (bottles, sound effects at 150% loudness)

    most of these worked previously, but seemingly broke out of nowhere, unless driver or kernel updates wrecked thwm, but if that is the case i haven't the faintest clue on how to troubleshoot that besides trying every previous kernel i can still download.

    Device: Legion 5-15, 16gb ram, radeon 5 4600, nvidia rtx 3060 mobile, newest version of mint and newest LTS kernel. LUKS partition. I'll add more info when i get home.

    So, tl;dr:

    • how to troubleshoot proton games
    • how to troubleshoot wine games in bottles and pol
    • how to prevent games breaking out of nowhere in the future
