  • Ofc I know it's not meant to be literal, but talking about killing black people or not is too direct. The subjects people like this usually want to talk about tend to be more layered, e.g. "what should we do about the Jew problem" so that if you take the bait you'll implicitly accept that "the Jew problem" exists to begin with.

  • Isn't (I|U) equivalent to ([IU])?

  • Cleaning the print surface with warm water and soap, and then avoiding touching it with your hands, is a good start if you haven't done so alreayd. Calibrating first layer height, flow rate, temperatures, etc. is generally the way, but if you want a quick and easy solution I gotta say that Magigoo has worked really well for me. It's a bit expensive, but I've reapplied it a few times and never have to wash the bed so that one bottle will likely last a lifetime. I think you can get similar results with a high PVA content glue stick or hair spray. And there are of course other 3d print glues which I haven't tried, I'm assuming they work equally well.

  • Personally I'm not looking an OS that is "not so bad", the initial impression should be "this is great" :)

    Ubuntu is kind of the “Windows” of the Linux world

    That's also the thing, I switched to Linux because I hated using Windows, and I don't like how Microsoft operates. The last think I want is a distribution which tries to be Windows made by a company which tries to be Microsoft. It's of course an exaggeration, and Ubuntu doesn't do EEE and patent trolling as far as I know, but at least for me it feels like they're going in the wrong direction when they keep reinventing the wheel, forcing solutions that users don't want, and generally trying to create a "one size fits all" desktop. I'm not against it, Ubuntu is probably a good choice for some users, it just doesn't fit me. I used Xubuntu for many years, and I also tried both Gnome and Unity at different points, but currently I use Fedora KDE.

  • Not entirely clear but perhaps OP is talking about blocking unwanted outgoing reqjests? E.g. anti-features and such since they mention traffic from their apps.

  • Ah, I didn't expect the results to be different when looking at the overview, this is what I saw..

    Any way to break down that "Other" and see what it contains? If it counts Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS as different operating systems there might be some more Ubuntu versions hiding in there.

  • I looked at the August 2024 results and SteamOS was not mentioned anywhere in the OS version section.

  • Probably because everybody with a Steam Desk shows up as Arch in the survey.

  • It did alright, don't think I saw that many obvious cheaters in BF1. BF5 would occasionally have obvious cheaters, but I would hope they get banned eventually just because it's over the top (shooting people through walls, infinite ammo, perfect aim). Difficult to say with more subtle cheats, but I suppose if they're indistinguishable from players who are just good at the game then I think most people won't ever notice.

    On the flip side I got permabanned from multiplayer in BF5 after EA falsely accused me of cheating, though I suppose that could've happened with any kind of anti-cheat, and could've been fixed by having half-competent support.

  • I think FairFight is the old anti-cheat, which at least used to be server side only.

  • Unfortunately most Battlefield games worked fine with Wine/Proton for years since EA used server side AC, so they already have our money.

  • I've never got my Vive to work well in Linux, even though I'm using X which supposedly still is better for gaming that Wayland.

  • What is the solution?

    My guess is that Microsoft wants provide some kind of kernel level anti-cheat, possibly directly integrated with directx, and it will use cryptography which will make it impossible to emulate with Wine/Proton.

  • Did you follow some guide when replacing the nozzle and bowden tube? Did you hot tighten it when putting them back?

    What speed are you printing at, which you think is too slow? What's your acceleration?

  • It’s a myth that capricorn tubing is better in any way

    I'd call it "successful marketing" :) But yeah, they're really managed to convince a lot of people that it has near magical properties, and I've seen a lot of random people recommend it to others for all sorts of issues.

  • So sad that they didn't fix the AC until the game had been around for years, I would've loved to play it in the beginning when the player skill was more varied. Tried to get into it when Linux was allowed but it seemed like mostly the try-hards were still playing. Had some good games but it was a bit too sweaty for my friends at times.

    I tried playing it through Wine during season 2 or 3, the game worked flawlessly but you would get kicked after 1-5 minutes due to missing AC.

  • The first game was named Battlefield 1942, so technically there hasn't been a "1" in the series before this :) It came out in 2016 so it's not really new, but I bought it last year and played it on Linux for a few hours with friends, and it still has an active player base.

  • Have they stated that they're going to support Linux or at least Proton/Wine? I did a quick search on the game's Steam forum and it sounded like it doesn't work currently.

  • Ahh, now I get it :P
