Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Call for Support: Bottles Team Needs Funding to Sustain Development1·2 days agoObviously. It too does wine environment management. But it’s meant for games, and for wine specifically, Bottles is just nicer.
Lutris is massive overkill if you just want run the windows version of python in order to compile python code to windows binaries. Not to mention it just isn’t as slick in terms of UX as a wine manager.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Call for Support: Bottles Team Needs Funding to Sustain Development10·2 days agoIt’s not a catch-all game launcher.
It’s a wine environment manager. And it is becoming increasingly good at simplying the complexity of setting up wine bottles for different things.
It’s basically winetricks on steroids, with a really nice GUI to boot.
Running windows games is just one use-case.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?17·5 days agoThat would have been Quantum Break. I don’t recall Control having any one cutscene that long.
But Quantum Break did the whole video-game/TV-series hybrid media thing, and was full of “episodes” that were essentially 30-minute cutscenes.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•KDE Devs, I Love You, But Please Remove This Feature81·5 days agoI dunno man.
It’s not like linux applications ever have different app-names in the menu, when compared to the package name you just saw when installing it.
That has never tripped me up. No. Never.
/S
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•KDE Devs, I Love You, But Please Remove This Feature31·5 days agoIt’s probably time based.
And this kind of thing isn’t for the type of people who mess with settings. If this defaulted to off, then it would actually be useless.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•KDE Devs, I Love You, But Please Remove This Feature381·5 days agoYeah. Plus they immediately got a reply from someone showing where you can turn it off in settings.
Lots people seem to think the cutest thing a cat can do is become breadloaf.
I think this is the cutest. Laying sideways, legs sprawled. Not a single tensed muscle, just enjoying existence.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Internal microphone not being detected pleaseee helppp1·8 days agoAudio devices can have multiple modes or “profiles” that determine what they do.
For my headset I have:
For my internal sound card I have:
If I set my headset to one of the options that doesn’t have “+ Mono Input” the mic stops working and doesn’t even show up in settings and apps anymore. Same if I use the “Stereo Output” mode on my internal sound card. They must be set to a mode with both output and input enabled to work.
I can see this from “Sound” in my KDE settings, but you can also configure this in the “Configuration” tab of pavucontrol.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I get help installing Tekken 7 on my fedora please 🥺3·8 days agoTekken 3 is a PS one game, not PS2.
It has no PC version. Any such thing is just the PS one version with an emulation wrapper.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Internal microphone not being detected pleaseee helppp1·8 days agoYou definitely seem to have what looks to be the right audio device getting detected.
The device that is “unplugged” should be the 3.5mm jack on your laptop (if you have one) not the internal mic.
My first guess is that your audio device is in the wrong mode. If it is currently set to something like “stereo output” change it to “stereo output+mono input” or “stereo duplex” from pavucontrol or audio settings.
she really was one of the “side”-charachter of all time
Good thing we’ll see plenty of her in the Anime, still.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone4·11 days agoYesterday we saw the biggest increase in signatures in a single day, even compared to the start of the initiative.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone2·11 days agoThis isn’t change.org or a twitter poll.
It’s an official EU citizens initiative, hosted on the EU web portal. The one maintained by the EU for the very purpose of digitally facilitating any and all citizens initiatives.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone2·11 days agoNo, I’m not.
Ok
I’m saying this is a waste of time.
I… What? Is that not a mutual exclusivity argument? For you to have a point, this time and effort would need to be better spent elsewhere. I not only disagree with that, but I have the time and energy to do the other things you are claiming will make a difference.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone5·11 days agoOh shit forreal?
Does that mean I can pay for shit online with made-up credit cards?
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone2·11 days agoCitizens iniatives may be a form of petition, but the difference is they come with actual legal requirements.
This isn’t some change.org bs, a list of names totaling some arbitrary number. That’s why it has a hard deadline. And requirements for how signatures have to come from more than one country.
This is a pre-existing system for the people of the EU to force it to tackle an issue. Most EU countries have equivalent systems locally, as well. This isn’t new or unusual for us.
Legal precedent is how the US works. Where lawsuits catalyzing the setting of new standards for what is legal, is the most common way the law changes. If you thought that’s how EU legislation got done, then you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about. Almost everything the EU does, is based on proposals. Not legal cases.
Those can happen in the EU, too, but we have additional ways to propose law as citizens, and legal cases are more common on the national level, rather than the continental level.
If you can gather proof (signatures) of concern on a given issue, you can force a proposal through the door that normally has to come from elected representatives.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone81·12 days agoRight. Because caring about A means you can’t care about B. If you support legislation, you must be boycoting nothing, because no-one in the history of existence has ever done both.
You’re claiming mutual exclusivity where none exists.
You sound more like you’re scared of the implications of this passing, because you’d have us voting with out wallets rather than… actually voting. Nevermind that even games not worth buying should still also be preserved.
Pre-orders, micro-transactions and battle-passes are still a thing, no matter how much we’ve shouted about “big company bad”. This type of crap isn’t something we solve by any one method alone.
And you don’t need to engage with youtube or any other social media, to accept that the phenomenon they enable, occur. To dismiss that reality would be idiotic delusion.
Millions of views is a lot, when all you need to get started, is one of those millions to sign a petition.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@beehaw.org•Stop Killing Games Initiative passes 700K milestone26·12 days agoI… What?
Botting something like a citizens initiative, where every signature WILL get scrutinized by government would be seriously stupid. Or are you saying commenters like me are bots?
Is it really that hard for you to imagine the possibility… that people care?
Or are just not aware of the chain of youtubers doing a call to arms on this, getting millions of views, completely explaining the signature spike?
Historically, there is no need to share a border with the US for them to come fuck your shit up.
Whether they leave you alone is… Not about whether you border a NATO member country.
Certainly not if you’re Russia.
