heavy as boulders?

This is to bad, I really enjoyed this game one of the better platformers to come out in a long time.

Great interview, thanks

Just had a similar issue a few days ago, where my system would freeze and spent 2 days trying to solve it. Ran a memory test, no issues. Tried NVIDIA drivers 470,535 and 550 with different combinations of the kernel including 6.x and 5.x (make sure you’re using generic). Issue was still there, grabbed a copy of windows and tried it there, same issue. That narrowed it down to a hardware issue. Started tweaking the bios and found the problem was a pcie gen issue, my motherboard was automatically setting it to 5 which was causing the crash I set it to 3, no more problems. You could use the same techniques to narrow down your problem as well. (Nothing was ever reported in any logs since it was a hard freeze, which made this a huge pain in the ass to fix)

Cool! Interesting, I thought True North meant that they somehow pointed north given another reference. Thanks for the info.

By far one of the most interesting articles I’ve seen on Lemmy so far, thanks for the link

I lived in peace and humanity first Berkeley, Ca for 10 years a bastion of liberalism taken to the extreme. For 10 years I voted repeatedly in local elections for more affordable housing and zoning changes to make it easier to develop taller buildings and rezone areas for housing development. In the time I was there I think I can count on 1 hand the number of apartment and housing developments I saw being erected. Every damn election people voted against zoning changes and shot them down. We eventually had kids and guess what, there was no place for us to raise a family. So we moved out of state. Californians have nobody but themselves to blame for the homelessness problem the NIMBYism there is to the stratosphere. They shit talk about places like Texas, but guess what? At least there people have a place to live, which is more than I can say for the majority of cities in California.

Great post, thanks for sharing

They provide services to ALL people. So tired of reading that only the poor use the library. My kids are always begging to be taken there to get books and do activities. We just used the color printer/copier at ours the other day and the first 3 copies were free. Libraries are an amazing community resource for EVERYONE.

Between airliners crashing and financial and public infrastructure being taken down by security flaws I wonder how many trillions of lost dollars and lives being lost it will take before critical software like this is held to a higher standard. Even though it’s just as important as the development team that writes the code, QA and a software dev process are still treated as unimportant and something you do only if you have the time to do it.

This should be it’s own post. Thanks!

Any “Gaming” headphones they are all such trash. Buy a nice pair of headphones with a quality metal headband and get an audio cable with a built in mic.

I really like this video, in it he demonstrates how a char pointer can be exploited to alter the return value in the stack and walks through an example of how it’s done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S0aBV-Waeo

Second on the Octopath Traveler II music. Even my son who is 9 and plays it as well as a ton of other games has only ever commented about how the music is really good on Octopath Traveler and no others (and I had never mentioned this to him). It’s definitely the best music I have every heard for a game. There was a glitch one time where the music wasn’t playing for some reason and I realized how much the music made the game come to life, NGL, I think it brings like 99% of the emotional engagement to it.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I didn’t know these even existed. My old roommate’s routine was to roast a single cup of coffee beans in a small steel pan on our stove every time he made a cup each day. It seemed like a lot of work, but he always said it was totally worth it.
