I mean gamers nexus I am pretty sure covered this a year ago in their GPU black market video? And I don’t think that was breaking news from them it was just reported on because they were seen together regularly? So it’s not like people didn’t know. And we all saw them be buddy buddy, and we all know Trump loves corruption so I mean none of this is a surprise?

    Why woulda China give a shit? It wasn’t illegal to import these chips into China. Just illegal for Jensen to knowingly export them to China.

    This feels more like them saying “wow we investigated it and found you were tricked so it’s totally not your fault for purposely avoiding export bans. It’s all chinas fault.”

    What? T1 fractals are easy quick join randoms. Like, you can fail every mechanic and be fine.

    T3’s are where you need to know mechanics by.

    I mean some people might be dicks about it but I mean, I don’t think that a majority of the people doing T1’s unless it’s like fractal rush where people are doing those for quick rewards and get grumpy about it taking more than 5 minutes.

    Idk man I play gw2 now which it’s fine.

    If you have a group of friends it’s good fun, and really cool. You can also get in Groups fine for easy enough content and it’s there if you want more but also in gw2 nothing is really forced there’s a ton of open world content and story and etc you can do even for endgame that don’t require you to form a party. But also that games built to make seeing other humans a good experience instead of bad, and map meta events bringing everyone together but not needing to coordinate or anything save for specific maps make it fine for those who don’t want to talk to others (or are trash at the game) but still want big cool fights and such.

    There is story in the 5 man dungeons but the literal story paths for those are soloable, and the 5 man ones do I guess have story but it’s mostly irrelevant (plus it’s not very hard content)

    Hey I was trying to set up archipelago to run a Chrono Trigger - Jets of Time randomizer file, and it needs a lua script to run to connect to archipelago. I couldn’t find a single SNES emulator with lua scripting enabled such as SNES9x-rr on windows. I tried just running that through proton but the lua scripts would not function. New to Linux so idk much on compiling shit natively or if I would need dependencies or to add something to wine/proton for lua to work or if there is an app image or something already that I could easily install that I didn’t see with a quick search.

    update: Okay, seems maybe with proton can get stuff running but the lua won't work. Seems I can get it to try and run it, but runs into some issue with a .dll and not being able to find "main" or whatever. Can't find any flatpack/appimg for a native emulator with a lua injector, and idk if I can install cuz sudo apt doesn't work on it and idk enough to figure out how I'm supposed to get and compile shit. Soooo, heck.

    Edit: forgot to mention incase it matters, running Bazzite 42.

    Resolved: Bazzite has issues with dependencies because of the whole atomic/immutable shit, so basically can't get any of these to work. However, I found you can bypass the Lua scripting needed by using https://github.com/Skarsnik/snes9x-emunwa/releases which has a network connect, so I just run that through proton instead.

    So, I was originally just going with Mint 22.1, but I’m getting a 9070xt and see mint is only on kernel 6.8 which doesn’t particularly support it?

    Is using it still okay? Should I go with Bazzite instead? Or something else. I’m fine with a little amount of work to get shit working nice and all, I am fine with figuring out how to use the terminal if needed and all, just want something stable to play games and other shit on. Mint sounded good, but not if it won’t support my GPU.
