2 has 3 sides instead of 4

Nah, it's not doing a lot of heavy lifting on my server, it'll be good for years to come most likely

Did some server maintenance yesterday, including driver updates. Broke my system since it updated my Nvidia driver to 590.x which no longer supports our little 1060s. Had to roll back the driver, thankfully easy. Suppose I better start keeping an eye out for some sort of upgrade...

Debian repos don't have the latest drivers

.run files are definitely doable in Linux, don't know why you'd think otherwise. It's my preferred way to install the proprietary drivers on Debian

A&W for root beer floats, Mug preferably over Barqs, but almost no fast food place around here have Mug. Barqs does have caffeine as well which is a nice pick-me-up

Common Misbeliefs is definitely a better way to phrase it

As another user said, sources for updates should definitely be required. If your goal is to educate people, provide them with the sources you yourself are pulling the facts from.

I'd also suggest curating what "facts" are being presented and how. I put in 2011 for myself, and according to the website it was "taught in schools around the world" (copied from your mission statement) that "The 5-Second Rule for Dropped Food". Yes, that is a nonsense sentence. What exactly is the fact you are stating was taught around the world? What science or fact was being taught that was disproven or updated?

Of course we can infer that this refers to the old wives tale/childhood joke (I cannot think of a better term, sorry) that when food is dropped, you have 5 seconds to pick it up for it to be "safe". I'd be concerned if this was taught in ANY school as somehow being scientific at any point in time (after germ theory was widely accepted).

You might also have different categories or subjects instead of saying things are "facts". The old food pyramid wasn't taught as being "the best nutrition guide" or that it was irreplaceable. It was the best we had at the time, and any competent science class will remind you that these things change as we learn more. I'd label that as "Guidelines" or similar instead.

I'm not reading this as OP shaming porn. The "fucking perverts, aren't we?" reads (to me) as them lumping themselves in with the rest of us.

Yes, we're indeed fucking perverts, and it's fucking great!

Pokémon Z-A has honestly been one of the most fun Pokémon games I've played in a loooooooooooooooooooong time

For the controller issues, run games with Proton 9.x. As far as I know controllers don't work right with Proton 10.x

 

Update with solution at the end

Hi all! If there's a better community for these questions I can post over there instead.

I'm not new to linux in general, but I am new to gaming on linux. I finally ditched Windows and installed Debian 12. I've got propriety Nvidia drivers installed, Steam's installed and I've only checked one other game so far (Palworld, working flawlessly).

Monster Hunter Wilds is just giving me a headache and I'm not quite sure how to troubleshoot it, whether it's something on my side (most likely) or something else. I can get the game to start using Proton Experimental (bleeding edge), it does it's graphics/shader thing, gets past the branding, and then freezes on the "Initializing Network" screen.

I've looked through through the ProtonDB and tried various launch options that were recommended, but still with no luck. I'm actually locked out for 24 hours because Denuvo sees switching Proton versions as trying to reinstall on multiple machines, so any potential solutions will have to be tested once that lock resets.

Happy to provide anything needed, logs or whatnot. Might just need to be pointed in the right direction to find those.

System Info:

  • Debian 12 (bookworm)
  • Kernel: 6.1.0-32-amd64
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
  • RAM: 32GB
  • GPU: RTX 3060 Ti
  • GPU Driver: 535.216.01

Edit: Finally got things working! Turns out that the Debian repositories don't have up to date drivers, didn't realize that going in. Fully removing Nvidia drivers and manually installing the latest version from Nvidia (Following this guide) has me playing again! There's a few visual glitches that I need to see if I can get fixed with some mods, but if anyone is having similar issues then it may be a driver error!
