The closest you can get is .2 or .3 cents. It's called a mill. Gas stations use it all the time.

Anyone with an AM radio has known this for decades.

Seriously? Fuck you. This supports the genocide of every LGBTQ+ person in all of North America, be it directly or indirectly. No one wants what is happening in Gaza. But, I have to say the potential genocide (in the complete erasure of culture as well as open murders with little to no consequences sense) here is even higher.

I have the unfortunate circumstance of being a trans woman in GA. I already have had to completely shut off most contact with people, both work and personal.

I've already had rocks thrown at me in an attempt to kill me (this was years ago, even). I already feel like I have to carry a gun. If things go the way they seem, I will even have to order in groceries because it will further empower the people that hate my existence.

The foreign policy is shit, no question. However, I don't like the possibility of being raped and murdered by some asshole that thinks he understands Co² emissions after watching some video.

I have a lot to say here, especially as a very blue collar machinist. I will refrain, though.

In conclusion: by "avoiding" the genocide in Gaza (which may have been resolved), you have also doomed people like me to maybe live in fear for the rest of our lives.

I'm not just worried, I am frightened and have nowhere to turn.

They were trying to run it cracked through an alternative launcher.

How else are you supposed to boil wine?

It is one of the mecha Tux wallpapers that were made for the Nobara distro. I believe I just grabbed it from inside KDE, but it has been a while.

My dog seems to agree with this sentiment.

There is a community, but it isn't open for whatever reason. I check every now and again.

But the cropping makes it almost unusable.

Yep. That's the monitor screen - last legs at best. At the point where distro hopping is impossible because the main screen is unusable and I can't even use GRUB anymore.

 

I'm running nobara currently as my distro, but these issues persist after trying Pop!_OS and several other distros with help from forums etc. Be it pure WINE, Proton, or Lutris installs across multiple distros and drivers, the game will work perfectly for the first run. Afterwards, the game will immediately crash after character selection.

I'm at an in-between level of experience with Linux, so I'm not inept but far from a guru. I suspect the issues might be caused by the recent half integration of DX11. As far as that goes, let me explain - this game is old and ran on DX9 up until 2023. I'm not sure if that weird hybrid combo kills compatibility or not.

There is an intall that almost works here. It would be a lot of work to get this to work on my current Fedora based install vs. what it is meant for, but the install methods should be the same. The issue is that with that install textures are garbage and most are just jet black.

I can provide specs etc. If there is some kind of known bug on Proton that will prevent me from launching on Steam that can be fixed with Protontrix please let me know.

I know that I'm likely to be the only one to post about this issue here, ever, but I don't know a better place to ask than here! Also, the game is free on steam if someone can get it going correctly.

I'm at a loss. I have to completely wipe an install to get it working again which is a pain because my UI gets reset.

I've made quite a few posts to /c/risa that are actual OC. I'm either horrible at humor, the timing is bad, or it doesn't work for whatever reason. Extremely low effort memes? Lots of upvotes. If I do high effort stuff that takes an hour or more, I'm just discouraged by the lack of even comments.

So, to tie this all up - is it worth a latinum bar to keep trying to do OC? Do you all even want that (seriously)?

 

I'm trying out using imgur as the host. I hope that works! Let me know if it doesn't. As an aside - I really like this one.

It's the thought that counts.

 

This doesn't fit the format, and can't work with it, but this is where my head went as soon as I saw "11 Rikers Riking" -First truly “high effort” post on my part - this took more time than I care to admit.

 

I'm getting a little bit better at this, I think...
