Capaldi's era is definitely a bit more on the serious side. Jodie's era is unfortunately not very well made as you've probably heard, a lot of early episodes take themselves too seriously, and often try to make a point but completely miss the mark.

You'll probably like the new season with Gatwa though, a lot of it is very campy (sometimes to a fault IMO), with some amazing more grounded episodes mixed in.

You can mostly skip to the new season. The only thing you need to know is:

SpoilersGalifrey is destroyed again by the master, who reveals that the doctor isn't a time lord, but an unknown species from another dimension that the time lords stole regeneration from.

I like rice but kind of like how I like bread. It's carbs that you put with other stuff give it more substance. On its own it can be OK (since its carbs) but pretty bland.

There's some Interesting graph theory problem somewhere in here about finding out if a network of N people in M relationships must include at least one gay person.

Csgo and 2 have a "trust" system to keep track of player behavior and put you in games with others of similar trust value. So if you get reported often or have a history of bad behavior, you're more likely to be put in games with other bad actors, and vice versa. Idk how effective it is though.

Honestly there isn't a great solution, which is kind of why I avoid competitive multiplayer games. Even kernel level anticheats can be circumvented.

The nice thing about vac is that theres pretty much no false positives. And valve will occasionally update it, catching a ton of cheaters off guard and getting them banned.

let me know if this isn't allowed, but I'm making a game, and also the music in it, and figured I'd share here. lmk if it's good.

I've used my switch pro a lot for games on my pc, but after updating to 22 it no longer works, and I have no clue why. It connects and shows the player count lights, but no blue light and no controller detected by any software. lsusb shows the device and udemadm monitor shows a bunch of changes.

Sometimes I can get it to connect by connecting with bluetooth, then quickly plugging it in, which makes me think that it's an issue with udev rules? It won't connect with bluetooth alone though.

Is anyone else experiencing this or have an idea on how to solve it?

EDIT: FIXED! The issue was that I had joycond installed at one point, and the upgrade removed it (since its not needed since the kernel has support now). I just went in /lib/udev/rules.d and deleted any files with joycond in the name (there were 2).

Half-Life 2 introduced a sidekick who's mixed race, has dyed hair, and punches cops in her first scene. And yet I've heard no one call that game woke.

(tldr, open source software has come a long way, and it's more than possible to create a full game without leaving Linux.)

So I've been a full Linux user for a couple years now, and a hobbyist game dev for way longer. I've always tried to make the most out of free tools, so I've used a lot of FOSS tools for game development before.

Going with that philosophy, Year Unknown's development has cost $0 (not counting store fees or my time), and the development is done with almost entirely FOSS software like Godot, Blender, GIMP, and Audacity. The only exception is Reaper, which is my DAW of choice (but to be fair, it's a really good DAW).

The game itself is a narrative-driven exploration game set in the very far future, where humanity has found a way to make the universe last forever. The game's story covers a lot of existential issues that come from the premise, revealed through two characters you can talk to through terminals.

I know there's other developers who have done the same, but I thought I'd share my experience, and I can answer questions about the workflow if you're curious, or trying to do something similar. Also, if the game seems interesting to you, a wishlist would be very appreciated!

An interesting project I quickly threw together after finding out that Godot can call javascript's "eval" function. You can really do anything with this engine.

It really seems like satire, but based off the guy's profile and normal posts I don't think it is.

I recently picked up a used RX 6600xt, and ever since the screen will occasionally freeze for 1-2 seconds before returning to normal. As far as I can tell, input and sound work as normal during these. There's no real pattern either.

I'm on Mint 21.3 Cinnamon, on the 6.5 kernel (there was a sleep related issue for me in the default kernel version). Since getting the GPU, I've replaced the CPU and motherboard.

Any guesses as to what this might be, or where to look? I tried checking mint's logs app and there didn't seem to be anything associated with it.

You're telling me that anticompetitive practices stifle competition?

For real though, this is great news. Glad the EU finally got apple to open things up a bit, even if it's only in the EU.

Seriously. I get feeling like you don't have much of a choice, but not voting is just giving up. Like, you're actively removing the little choice you have and handing democracy over to an overt fascist.

WebCord is an "alternative client" for Discord, although it's just running the Discord webpage in electron. Recently it updated its electron version so it supports sharing audio as well as video.

I tried it out today on mint (x11, pulseaudio) and it works flawlessly.

The idea of free software is extremely socialist/communist. People working together to create something that anyone can use for free, with profit being a non-existent or at least minor motivator.

If only people could understand the basic concept that hating a government is possible without hating the people living there.

#1 is just not being the default for 99% of devices. If someone gets a new computer, why would they go through the effort of installing a new os when the one it comes with works fine? Hell, I bet at least 50% of people in the market for a pc don't even know what an OS is.
