I haven’t played TF2 in a while (before f2p?), my understanding is that community servers were mostly fine and how we’re mostly on random casual games?
At least this game has a dedicated server option, contrary to the other TF2.
I typically don’t care about things like hairstyle, makeup or clothes. But my wife has started giving herself a buzz cut and I simply hate it. I told her and she grew it out for a while, but she said longer hair was making her depressed and it needed to be a buzz cut. She said it just looks like her when she sees it. Part of...
You’re both going through depression and that’s rough on its own.
I love my wife’s long hair, but idk, I love her more than I do her hair.
If she buzz cuts it, or ever gets cancer and loses it, or, whatever happens really, I can’t really see my feelings for her changing over this.
I’m not judging here, I’m saying there’s probably more to this than just the hair itself?
I can’t know if it’s about other changes related to your depressions, coping with agender-ness, attraction, control, or whatever, but I think none of us here is really equipped to help you out.
Not that I don’t want to help, but you’re probably better off seeking professional help.
Now, whether that’s a solo psychologist or couples therapy, be mindful of choosing a practitioner that’s friendly to the agender and trans people.
I imagine it would suck for your wife to get shoved into a religious zealot’s trad-wife conversion therapy.
I’m a dude with long hair who’s not shy of either my masculine nor feminine side and I’d be pretty bummed if my wife told be she hated how I look and signed me up for boot camp so they buzz cut my hair.
Feels like the hair is the tip of the iceberg here.
Good luck to you both.

My husband recently upgraded to an AM4 platform. His issue is that there is no display. The gpu fans look like they are trying to start, but cannot. Additionally, there is no POST sound and the power button, while able to turn on the pc, will not turn it off. The lights on the motherboard work, as do the cpu fans and case fans....
EZ Debug LED: Debug LED indicators
These LEDs indicate the status of the motherboard.
CPU - indicates CPU is not detected or fail.
DRAM - indicates DRAM is not detected or fail.
VGA - indicates GPU is not detected or fail.
BOOT - indicates booting device is not detected or fail.
They’re on the right side of the mobo next to the RAM slot, above the ATX power supply connector.
If the diagnostic LEDs aren’t OK… check that the power supply cable (Big 24-pin, middle right edge) is fully seated.
Check that CPU power is connected (8-pin, top right)
Check for extra standoffs.
Try different output connectors on the GPU.
My Nvidia card displays the POST/BIOS on the rightmost used output connector, but I can’t remember what my 10xx did. I think it was DVI, HDMI, then DP.
Anyway, might wanna use a single monitor until you figure this out and make sure it uses that input, had a weird monitor the outre day that would default to some random input even if it was unplugged.
Might be the cpu power connector too.
I assume you checked the cpu isn’t installed the wrong way.
Might the mobo needing a firmware upgrade to support that CPU.
I’ve been meaning to play something else, but I keep playing Shattered Pixel Dungeon…
I really wanted to give Helldivers 2 a try, but I don’t really feel like installing the rootkit bullshit for a co-op game.
I’ve heard from here about a Deep Rock Galactic autoshooter, might give that a try.

is a booster-bot not really of linux, I would say ANTI-LINUX, and promotes constantly marketing by 3-4 corporations that seek to dominate linux and displace all alternatives.
What bot?
Your only mention is a community, where there are multiple people posting and commenting about different Linux related subjects.
It’s more akin to a mastodon hashtag than to a user, which makes your clamoring for ban a bit weird.
Ok, but what you’re mentioning is actually a Linux community on a lemmy instance. That’s like a fediverse version of a linux subreddit.
It might show up weird on mastodon, idk.
The bot you speak of does not exist (or you didn’t mention their username), lemmy.ml/c/linux is just a collection of different people posting different threads about linux related stuff.

So… the PC in my living room is actually a VM with a dedicated GPU (PCI passthrough).
I wonder what are the odds of this game even running or falsely flagging me…
Bring dedicated servers back.
Can’t have persistent server capacity issues if I can throw my own hardware at it.
This also gets rid of match making, which is whatever. Just give me a server browser and I’ll find a few favorites and hang on those.
It can also keep working long after the companies give up on them too.
Except that plenty of surgical abortions happen because the baby is already dead in the mother’s uterus though.
Being dead doesn’t magically teleport it away and it needs to be taken out for the mother to survive.
Which is, medically speaking, the same procedure as a surgical abortion.
Okay let me start with two heavy hitters right from the get go and don’t forget these are only personal oppinions and I absolute understand if you like those games. Good for you!...
At least back in the day, multiplayer games released with the server you could self host.
Or you’d find a chill one that you liked and it became its own little community of sorts with regulars and whatnot.
Now, some games make it genuinely hard to even play multiple rounds back to back with the same people.
The ranking system and match making superceded the lobby.
There’s still a lot of enjoyable games, gems even, but there’s a lot of hot garbage too.
I don’t think it’s (just) Internet’s fault.
Hell, we’d play Diablo over dial-up and it was amazing at the time.
I think it’s more the corpo greed making its way everywhere. No mTx, no subscription, no battle pass, no unlocking bs, no cosmetics, no unending daily grinds, just you, the game, maybe a buddy if your family didn’t need the phone.
DRM didn’t exist, they’d ask you questions about the game manual instead.
I remember bringing the Fallout manual on a trip and reading through it thinking about what character I’d make. Now everything is digital only, you’re almost lucky if it comes with a wallpaper.
I’ve been playing Minecraft for the first time.
Yup.
Idk why I hadn’t, probably just the timing with my life when it came out I guess.
I’m a big fan of legos so that’s not too far.
I’m playing it vaguely like Deep Rock Galactic, although even a diamond sword pales compared to a minigun or flamer.
I really enjoy time loop games where the player can explore and there’s a story, and isn’t just a puzzle game. I played Outer Wilds a few years ago and I loved everything about it, it’s my favorite in the genre....
It’s not a real time loop, but you’re an immortal amnesiac who just woke up on a mortuary slab.
Apparently not for the first time either.
The game revolves around figuring out why you’re even immortal, what to do about it, and what your different previous incarnations were up to.
While not a time loop, it has a unique vibe that’s vaguely similar to a time loop in a sense.
Maybe more like a death loop I guess (not related to the Deathloop game).
It’s a 90s era CRPG if that’s your jam.

Which is something super common in Metroid too.
