Normies hate this one simple trick (www.youtube.com)
 

A short video that politely steers normies to the right direction. Grandma approved.

Linux and the Fear of Change (for the stubborn gamers) (www.youtube.com)
 

Many of us are notorious fence-sitters. This video attempts to explore some of the psychology of our profound hesitation when switching operating systems. I will share my personal experience, talk about some of the fears we face when making big changes, offer some warm encouragement, and do it all without a whiff of the elitist technobabble that tends to rear its ugly head in Linux discussions.

A contemporary guide to lowsec travel in EVE Online (www.youtube.com)
 

I've often had to explain these mechanics to newcomers, now I finally can rest. For any ex-EVE players here, this video is probably a nice trip down memory lane. For those that don't play, this is probably very confusing.

Shockingly undereducated. I would feel embarrassed if I were you.

Incomprehensible comment.

Yeah, it's still popping.

Honestly, I totally get that. But for what it's worth, the game is more than just maximizing efficiencies like this. This is just a crazy case for me.

Multiboxing is not botting. Conflating the two implies ignorance.

For context, "multiboxing" is running multiple clients at once, and usually stacking them on a single monitor and rapidly flicking through them with a program like EVE-O Preview to activate commands with the mouse in short order. It is allowed in EVE, it is not against the TOS. Some people multibox with tiled windows, or one per monitor, though, because they prefer it for various reasons.

I love EVE Online, but "multiboxing" was tricky for me in Linux. I like using the CLI for everything I can, but get completely swamped still when dealing with cocktails like Lutris, WINE prefixes, and dependencies.

So I was super interested when I stumbled upon Bottles - it seemed to solve a lot of my issues. Then, I realized GNOME's workspaces basically did the same thing as the old Windows program I used... and that was all she wrote. It worked perfectly for me, why overthink it?

I recorded my newbie solution to (hopefully) convince other players to switch. Do you have any advice or corrections for me? Did I make a cardinal sin? Is this the dumbest thing you've ever seen? Hit me with your honest takes. <3

(EVE Online, OC) If you understand even 1% of this video, it may be time to touch some grass (youtu.be)
 

I've long wanted to encapsulate these thoughts on contemporary safe spots. Sadly, this issue is terribly unimportant, and who the hell plays EVE in 2024, am I right? But the fire burns inside me nonetheless. And now it burns inside you as well. Bobspeed, Capsuleer.

Just me or dragon ball is REALLY popular among black people, why is that? in c/[email protected]

It blew my mind because I wasn't expecting it.

does dbz talk shit different than other anime? I feel like everyone kind of talks shit to everybody else in every anime with heroes and villains.

I don't know. Never watched it.

Was he saying that talking mad shit was specifically compelling to black people?

That is what he meant. I interpreted it as "fuck yeah dude, that shit rules" more than "we talk shit" but who the hell knows.

I towed a guys truck one time. Nerdy fella, talked a ton. Said he loved DBZ. I fucking went for it, said "yo why did every one of the black dudes I know growing up love DBZ?" And without missing a beat he looks at me and goes "they talk MAD shit in the show man." Blew my mind.

It's super fun. The recent updates to this game have opened up an entire new world of possibilities. If you've never played or haven't played in a while, check out some gameplay footage of it, it's so much better now.

Wow, such a thoughtful and useful comment. I had to be carful to avoid spoilers and you were super sensitive to that while still giving great advice. Bravo and thank you.

I am having so much fun with this one. The systems are super polished and everything feels so smooth. If you are into platformers and somehow missed this one too, watch me play for a bit. It seems to have everything.

If you have any pointers that aren't blatant spoilers, I would love to hear them. Thanks in advanced.

The controller support seems good, but this style of platform shooter is pretty rough in general with the swivel aim. I think you could skip this one if you are a controller user (I love them too).

Got any wise tips on how to enjoy the game, without giving anything away? I am at home in these sandboxes, but wouldn't want to miss out on something fun.
