How does your cat's nudity contribute to your skill at drumming?

Since those two facts were included in the same sentence, I must assume they are inexorably related.

That's not even marketing speak. I'm an actual marketing copywriter.

It's a bland description of a type of game and of game features. Nothing exciting about how it's written.

Since the dev replied to me, I was thinking of offering them free help, since it's a competitive marketplace and I like seeing small developers succeed. except then I saw they used AI in the game's development. Hard pass.

There might be another way to do it. But when I encounter issues like this, I find simplification is usually the easiest.

Still, would be worth seeing if anyone else replies with ideas. Maybe I can learn something, too.

The hair object is incredibly complex. How small is this printing? You might be better off recreating the object as a simpler series of polygons, especially since the current level of detail may not show up in the final print.

With a simpler object made from fewer polygons, you'll have less trouble doing boolean cutouts.

Yeah, that makes sense.

That's a LOT of polygons. What happens if you try a boolean transformation with a simpler shape, like a square or an iso sphere? Does that successfully cut out a shape?

Rule #1: Any game referring to itself as unique isn't.

It's not in the bios, it's a system configuration.

Here you go, I found the links I started from. I'm on Bazzite, but Fedora and Debian seem to work similarly around this.

Edit to add: I just looked up Cachy, I see that it's Arch. I'm not sure if Arch configures this in the same way, but hopefully this will at least lead you In the right direction.

Are you trying to print the hair and head as curved/complex interlocking objects? If so, that could be your problem.

I always have better luck using simple geometry for the interlocking features.

If that's not your problem, might help if you share screenshots of the actual models you're working with.

I'm an American, and even I recognize that Metric is the proper standard.

I don't remember all the steps, but it had nothing to do with the controller itself.

I had to edit system configuration - I entered the identifier of the motherboard USB device, and I told the system to allow it to wake the system from sleep. I'd have to search for the actual steps.

Really, it comes down to perspective. As someone in the U.S., the scope of what he's saying isn't as radical as it might seem - if you look at the surrounding context.

New York City as expensive. Laborers to work there can't afford to live there. 25 Euros may sound like a lot - but it's barely a livable wage inside the city.

And American rental housing is mostly owned by a small number of massive corporations. They use computer algorithms to determine how much they can charge to earn maximum profit. Rents have gone up exorbitantly, far more than inflation or even demand. So the rents need to be held in place and stabilized. It's a completely unregulated market.

Similarly, food stores are consolidated under a small number of mega corporations. In a functioning system, stores byproducts based on market rates, then sell them based on what people are able to pay. However, in the U.S., grocery stores dictate how much they're willing to pay for goods. Small businesses need to bribe the distributors in order to get proper placement within grocery stores. And grocery stores I've been raising prices when the cost of staples go up - but then never lowering them again. Poor people can qualify to get money for food, but they aren't able to buy enough now. Operating a food store for public good is a middle step to ensure farmers get paid and people can buy quality food.

Public transit was free for a few years during the worst of covid, and people all over the country have been campaigning to try to keep it that way.

So, taking all of the surrounding details into context? He's not nearly as far left of center as he seems. But without the context, I understand why it may look like he's more of an extreme leftist.

 

Hello! New to Bazzite, and have a system running great. There's just one thing I'm having trouble with: I want the system to wake up from a sleep state when it detects signal from a keyboard/mouse.

I tried following this guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/848698/wake-up-from-suspend-using-usb-device

It seems straightforward enough, and even though that's Ubuntu, I saw buses were set to "disabled." So I tried writing the rc.local, but it still won't wake up, even though the devices have power.

Am I missing something? Or can anyone point me to a better reference? Thanks in advance.

 

Worked on a friend's AC power adapter, the cord had gotten cut. Just a simple two-wire cord, nothing too complicated.

Didn't do a perfect job with the heat shrink tubing, but still made good connections and it'll be safe to use.

Wish I had upgraded my soldering iron sooner. The old one didn't heat nearly as evenly as this one.

 

As an added bonus, it literally looks like shit, too!

 

I sat there for a long while before the crying began, resonating up from beneath the creaky floorboards - and I smiled, a toothy grin slowly spreading across my face... because I knew my work was only just beginning.

 

Had nearly all the parts lying around, so I put this thing together.

I wanted to add stereo speakers, but it's hard to find good wiring diagrams for such a niche thing. So, mono for now.

The motherboard has a bad cartridge slot. So I designed and printed a custom speaker holder that fits into the cartridge slot. All pressure fitted, no glue.

Everything works so far. Just waiting for a new shoulder button/SD slot cable, so I can finish it up and load up some GBA games. :)

A few years ago, LXLE was my distro of choice for older hardware.

I haven't used it in a while, and now I'm trying to revive an HP Stream (AMD/4GB RAM/32GB SSD).

Anything else I might want to try first, or is LXLE still considered good for lightweight/feature rich?
