  • Autodesk Fusion 360 is moving it's cloud storage to Fusion Hub. Upgrading is Mandatory

    Jump

  • My solution to this was to back up all my projects so I have a local copy, and move to FreeCAD. I'm tired of Autodesk changing the deal every year or so.

  • Looking for laptop recommendations

    Jump

  • I agree, however if the price is making your nervous try a Factory Seconds Framework. We noticed no issues with on our end and it’s cheaper.

    Sure you get a 11th gen Intel, but the performance is still good enough for indi games and more than enough for surfing the web

  • PSN Down as PS5, PS4 Players Can't Log In or Play Online

    Jump

  • Nope, but if you resub you’ll get the games back.

  • Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3?

    Jump

  • I read the manual for my cars radio. It has a max file size limit of like 256 songs or so per folder. But it can also accept 256 folders.

    So if your cars is anything like mine you can probably play your songs just by splitting them up into more folders.

  • What is one video game cheat code that will you will always remember?

    Jump

  • Flying car cheat in San Andreas. I don’t know what the buttons are, by my muscle memory is so ingrained that if I start it I can usually get it after 1/2 attempts. Even if I haven’t touched the games in years.

  • The Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening

  • The Sims & The Sims 2 Legacy Collections - Official Reveal Trailer

    Jump

  • Honestly I like the convenience and not having to mess around with fan patches and mods to just get the game to run well. Especially on Linux running these versions of the games is painless.

  • The Sims & The Sims 2 Legacy Collections - Official Reveal Trailer

    Jump

  • Ummm.... no. Outside of the Ikea DLC for Sims 2, they include all the DLC with the price.

  • Steam Install

    Jump

  • Just going to add, flatpaks have a hard time picking up controllers at least if you are using remote play. Would strongly recommend the deb

  • framework 13 AMD... yay or nay?

    Jump

  • So I have a Framework 13 AMD with Mint. Framework on older firmware isn’t the best, but with Mint 22 and by extension 24.04 it’s fine.

    Got mine back in December and had no issues with the installation process. Games play fine though the fan goes to 100% after a bit. But with power profile in 22.1 it can quiet the machine down.

    Other than that and the occasional hiccup. Compared to other laptops it’s the best machine I’ve used. So far no issues with only a few times of opening the terminal to fix minor issues.

  • I Don't See a Reason to Switch to Windows from Linux Anymore in 2025

    Jump

  • Tbh running AMD isn’t easier. For my workload I needed OpenCL and when it wasn’t installed by default, and wasn’t apart of apt package manager. I had to follow a script which involves amdgpu and only having OpenCL install if I wanted my machine stable.

    Not the best experience.

    For Nvidia some distros have installers built in to handle it. Like Mint where it’s one click and a restart and I have everything.

  • I didn’t. I got a legit Windows 10 education edition and iso from my university when windows 10 came out. Along with windows 7 and xp

  • I know it won’t corrupt my data. I’ve just heard enough stories of a a windows update deleting grub that I didn’t want to risk it.

  • Is there a way to add a custom screen resolution of 1440x960 to Linux Mint/Ubuntu

    Jump

  • steam deb, I've had issues with Flatpak. Also using other launchers

  • Is there a way to add a custom screen resolution of 1440x960 to Linux Mint/Ubuntu

    Jump

  • Unfortunately I cannot install gamescope, running Linux mint, and it is not apart of the packages. And the build instructions requires multiple library downgrades, and when it was done, it spat out a Wayland error.]

    I believe this is also relevant for Ubuntu 24.04 as well.

    EDIT: Oh and after a reset I borked my Mint install. Thank you snapshots for the rescue
