Whats a slappin' or "bitchin!'" song to listen to whilst high? in c/asklemmy

[–] mushroomstormtrooper 3 points 3 days ago

Up Top by Busty and the Bass is a great one if you're looking for some tasty bass.

Captain Hook by Vulfpeck is also a favorite.

Is there a genre of music that's death metal without the screaming vocals? in c/nostupidquestions

Seconded. One hell of a show too.

I'm not at all suggesting supporting worse is better and I have no clue how you came to that conclusion. Allowing a Trump win was absolutely worse and I agree it would have been better for everyone to suck it up and vote blue.

That being said its incredibly fucked up to pretend the democrats are completely innocent which is just blatantly not true. They are better by comparison, but definitely not innocent and still supportive of genocide.

I'm not talking about the posts, I'm talking about you guys trying to sweep shit under the rug. It doesn't work like that.

Animals as Leaders, Thessa, Pomegranate Tiger, Myth of I, and Fractalize are great ones.

Stoort Neer and Vildjharta both have some really good instrumental albums.

Gore., Monolord, '68, and The Damned Things are all a little less heavy than what you might be looking for, but they are all great and have mostly clean vocals.

Polyphia and Chon are also both incredible but probably fall a little closer to something other than Metal.

It still applies? Just because the Republicans are exponentially worse doesn't mean the democrats weren't supporting genocide too.

Even if it's made up, there's still more we want to know.

If you could regulate something relatively inconsequential, what would it be? in c/asklemmy

The cat food I get has the plastic Velcro at the top. It's pretty handy.

Your opinion on coming down from drugs? in c/lemmyshitpost

[–] mushroomstormtrooper 1 points 3 months ago

Opioids can be pretty rough for me the next day, too and I've never even taken the real heavy ones. But otherwise I agree, alcohol is the worst.

What video games would you rather watch someone else play than play it yourself? in c/asklemmy

[–] mushroomstormtrooper 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Counterstrike and Tarkov because I'm too bad at them to have any fun playing myself, but I really enjoy watching competitive matches or streamers raids here and there.

Also, Dark Souls 1-3 and Skyrim. I've played them all so much and still play through here and there, but I like to watch challenge runs and see all the modded or otherwise ridiculous playthroughs that I don't have the patience to commit to myself.

Nvidia issues? in c/linux

[–] mushroomstormtrooper 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well that really could be it. My power supply is the only part in my PC that's still original other than the cd drive. I'll dig around and see if I can find a way to check it before spending the money on a new one.

Nvidia issues? (self.linux)

Hi all, I've been having more and more trouble. I came here for some help with Bazzite, which ended up being solved or so I thought. I got to play Elden Ring for a few hours after which I turned off my PC. Everything ran perfectly smoothly with absolutely no issues. The next time I turned it on, the hard freezes started back up. I thought it might have been an Nvidia driver issue or an issue with Plasma, so I tried just about everything I could find to no avail. The next step was to see if reinstalling from the installation media would work, no boot. Tried again, no boot. Tried switching to bazzite gnome, no boot. Tried switching to Pop OS and the installation media won't boot. Every time, the one of the two same things happen with all of these attempts: a flash of artifacting, then a hard freeze, sometimes with the artifacting stuck, or everything but the cursor freezes for ~30sec then it freezes too. Both scenarios require a hard restart, but then the same thing happens. One useful price of information is that Tails works flawlessly, I run it on occasion from a USB (lately moreso to look things up because it's my only way to use my PC since this has been happening). I've checked that my GPU and drives etc are seated properly, all seems fine on the hw end. I'm at my wits end and I don't want to go back to windows. I clearly have a lot to learn still, but I never expected this to end up as difficult as it's been. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I would love to be able to play Elden Ring, but at this point I just need a working system other than Tails.

I will try that next time it boots. It's been alternating between freezing at that same spot and waiting a minute or two now.

Bazzite Help (self.linux)

After my previous post (here: https://lemmy.world/post/16593726 ), I took some of the advice I got and switched over to Bazzite for the time being. After some very minor tinkering, Elden Ring launches and runs great other that a very tiny amount of stuttering.

Played for a few hours today, then went to get RuneScape set up with one of the community launchers. I had good luck with nmlynch94's launcher on previous distro's, but this time no textures would load unless the camera was moving. I uninstalled and switched to the other one (red-dragon I think?) and the game wouldn't launch at all. After a little bit of back and forth uninstalling and reinstalling it, rebooting, etc. with no changes, I gave up and uninstalled everything related to the jagex launcher. Everything was working fine at that point still, shut everything down after browsing the web and listening to music like normal with no issues and now Bazzite won't launch at all. Almost every try ends up in it freezing at

"Booting 'Fedora Linux 40.20240619.0 (Bazzite) (ostree:0)'

_"

Once, it booted to the lock screen then froze. I have things set up and would prefer not to have to do a fresh install, but I'm not quite sure what to do. I have been unable to find much help searching the web. Does anyone have any insight for me?

Edit: Got it to boot from the ostree:1 option rather than 0, but it froze up within ~90 seconds. Shut down and it seems to be refusing to boot again.

Edit: Well, it booted up and I'm back to Elden Ring. No freezes or anything. Not sure what I did, so I'm still concerned.

Elden Ring on Debian 12 (self.linux)

I've been hoping to get Elden Ring up and running before the DLC comes out, but I haven't had much luck so far. I am a newbie to Linux, currently running Debian 12 w/ GNOME, Ryzen 9 3900X, GTX 1080 Ti.

I have tried every proton version and plenty of suggested launch options with slightly varying levels of "success", but the best I manage to get is Proton GE with no launch options and the game launches, flashes black, then white and then crashes, the whole time with the game's custom cursor. Most other combinations get me a black screen before launch, no launch, or nothing (but steam says its running for a minute).

I believe my video drivers are all up to date, but I am a newbie, like I said, so I'm not confident I didn't miss something. Has anyone else been running into this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Update: I installed the proprietary Nvidia drivers and now only get a black screen or frozen terminal when I launch my PC. I'm currently in recovery mode and attempting to follow troubleshooting guides with no luck. "ERROR: The control display is undefined; please run 'nvidia-settings --help' for usage information." Is one of the errors I keep getting, but I only get part of the help dialogue, the rest is cut off. nvidia-smi just froze everything. Would it be a good idea to just go back to my installation media?
