A rubber band isn’t launching a spark plug faster than just throwing it, and if you haven’t ever had to break a car window from the outside let me tell you, you need to get those ninja rocks moving pretty quick.

You aren’t causing any damage with that. Use a few condoms for the slingshot rubber and just whittle a Y shape out of some wood to tie it to. That will get a ball bearing through a 2x4 with a good arm.

You still need to disrupt operations on the ground. Logistical disruption does a lot more damage at the lowest level here. If they can’t get goons together they pose significantly less threat in the first place.

Motor oil balloons on windshields, broken windows, flat tires, tailpipe obstructions, anything to slow down movement and coordination.

Spark plug insulators, anything hardened ceramic, and some types of volcanic gravel all work. Anything harder than glass that comes to a sharp point.

The software isn’t the hard part, it’s the storage for the mods and networking infrastructure to get them out to people. Add in commonly requested features like comments, tagging, search with filters, and a website and you have a recipe for a wildly expensive and fairly complex product. As shitty as Nexus is, they have evolved into the YouTube of mods. A single entity hosting fairly sizable infrastructure to provide a free as in data theft service to basically anyone with a pulse.

I am curious to see if there is a good solution to decentralized data storage that isn’t redundantly copying the data X number of times and hoping for the best. That alone would go a long way towards solving the infrastructure issues.

The system update needs to be on a FAT32 drive without a label. The label shouldn’t matter. The update needs to look like a single folder on the root of the drive called $SystemUpdate. Plug it in, reboot the console.

If your console is modded it will specifically stop that process unless you rename that folder, but if you don’t know what you are doing then don’t mess with anything that touches the nand. Updating a modded box is its own process.

Also, just a fair warning, the Xbox compatibility files don’t come from a system update anyway, you need to use a program like Xploder to add the compatibility partition to your drive and manually copy it over. You should take some time and read up on SevenSins how to proceed.

You need to set an override in your environment variables to force it to use the gfx1030 kernel modules, but otherwise you shouldn’t have too many issues.

It’s unofficial, but the 6700xt uses the exact same core as one of the supported enterprise cards, so just using the drivers for it generally works just fine. I use a 6800M personally.

If you are struggling to get rocm installed at all then stop using the amd guides and just install the pre built binaries directly. Fedora packages them in their repository and in my experience rocm just works once you run dnf install rocm*.

Wow! What are the odds we were both born on the same day?

I can confirm, they have been doing this for months

Right side, starting in the middle and angling upwards as you read left to right.

And a port for the PS Vita! There was a decompilation effort a few years back, it has since been made portable enough to run on most anything with a framebuffer.

Honestly, with the price of lego and their own deviation from the “Lego” aesthetic in recent years I wouldn’t fault anyone for sticking with the clones. I have used quite a few of the “compatible” sets from China and other than the logo on top of the studs they are identical. Even the colors are on point these days.

Even better in the microwave

New instructions and only having to deal with one codebase are big, but there are some fringe reasons regarding security that I could see also being a factor. A 32-bit processor means something like a thunderbird athlon on the high end, maybe an old Pentium 4. Single core and pushing 30 in the best cases. You need an operating system that supports that chip, and there really is only so much you can do to make that setup even work in 2025.

It’s more a matter of why support that? Trying to run steam on a single core Athlon from 2000 would be painfully slow, to the point of being unusable. You couldn’t reasonably even keep steam running with a game, it would hog too much CPU. It’s possible to try it if you have an ancient tower laying around (don’t use your real steam account online with something like windows XP, it will be compromised in seconds connecting to the internet).

People with systems like that are going to need to use gog installers or use period accurate methods to install games. 32-bit only processors were already on the chopping block when steam came out, they really can’t handle modern steam. It would be a bit unreasonable to expect them to add a separate version for those chips, especially with the vulnerable operating systems they require going online being an issue, so we are left with a vestigial feature of 32-bit support for no great reason.

It really just makes more sense to cut it than keep it for the sake of novelty. There is some liability in keeping it, as well as technical overhead.

Sorry for the ramble.

As an American, you are doing God’s work. The only thing that gets through to these assholes is money.

I also have this issue on Summit, though the lines don’t show up in saved photos. I assumed it was a bug in the image rendering libraries.

I always used “Ss-Quill” in class, professionally I usually refer to the database as a series of pained grunts and whimpers

I have a Phillips evnia ultrawide that has accumulated over 6000 hours SOT over the last year and a half, over 3k of that was playing RuneScape 3. You have to turn the brightness down to 10% and be on a flat grey screen to even see the beginning of burn in. It’s really a non issue, even in “torture” scenarios like getting 200m mining xp on the screen full time.

Well, most people know what it takes to fill their tanks, so it isn’t an excessive amount, it’s like $5 extra and you go back for the change. Realistically 90% of people use cards and the ones that use cash put an amount that fits in the tank. I’m not going to put $20 in the tank if $15 puts it right at full, I’ll put $10 in and not worry about it.
