Apparently don't pee on it. Today I learned.

No, not this year but maybe last fall, early winter. The game itself was running fine but without DLC (which neede the launcher to work) was useless to me.

Maybe I have to give it another try but this experience was the worst possible advertisement for "gaming on Linux" 😐

This is simply not true. I recently tried Linux for gaming after several years because I read that Valve made some great progress. Installed Crusader Kings III and didn't get Paradox Launcher to run which is necessary for any DLC.

This was literally the first game I installed from my huge library and it simpl didn't work so I had to do two hours of research, trial and error and reading error logs to conclude that I wasn't able to solve this problem.

This is the exact reason why I use Windows for gaming. It simply works 99 % of the time. And I don't have the time to troubleshoot my games all the time.

How is this a technical issue? Seems like your hard drive is working fine?

[–] sockenklaus 2 points 1 year ago

Interessant aber die Fragestellung ist natürlich sehr speziell und die Aussagekraft ist doch eher begrenzt. Ich arbeite z.B. in Hamburg mit Menschen, die unfall- oder krankheitsbedingt (unter anderem) unter starken Schmerzen und Spastiken leiden und bei mehreren von denen gehört Medizinalcannabis zur Therapie. Ist also nicht ausgeschlossen.

I am more worried about whether Topton can build a functioning motherboard than about whether they spy on me.

Thanks for your reply! Which board do you have?

[–] sockenklaus 19 points 1 year ago

Exactly! In the past, I would have chosen the red pill to change decisions that I made in the past. But today there are some things in my life that are not directly the result of conscious decisions, but that I would not want to miss.

Hmm maybe I had bad luck but I won't dare to try again because the experience was so bad.

For me it's toner for printers: I have a Brother laser printer at home that is not heavily used but at least once a week. I thought I'd save some money when I bought some cheap ass toner from Amazon that cost about half of what a original Brother toner costs and promised something like double the capacity.

Oh boy... I had the worst mildly infuriating two years of printing you could imagine: always disappointed of the printing quality but not THAT disappointed to replace this shitty but still at 2/3 capacity toner. I paid money for that toner so I'd squeeze every last page of shitty quality prints out of this fucking toner!

Last week I gave up and bought an original Brother toner and it's a bliss. 🙄

Damn TIL! I didn't know that and I didn't know that Hitler was stateless from 1925 till 1932.
