thinks queer people are the ones who are confused
Not a native English speaker, so I might be completely wrong, but doesn't the word 'queer' litteraly mean 'confused' / 'weird'? Not that it makes a difference in this context, I'm just wondering

No, I've met a lot of people like you, but honestly, I have a hard time understanding why you feel that way. I'm in a couple of small group chats with people I'm friends with in real life. A group chat makes it easier to organize meeting up and sharing pictures with everyone after. Besides that, in a group chat I feel less pressure to reply, because if I'm not interested in a topic or have nothing to say, someone else will pick up and the person who started it won't feel ignored. In the same way, I feel I am able to share more easily, as I am not putting pressure on any one person to respond and I don't risk feeling rejected, but often a person who I wouldn't have expected to be intressed responds to my message that I would have not sent them personally so I feel like I get to know them better. I have no shame in admitting that I often mute these group chats when I'm trying to focus on something or am not interested in the current topic. However, I also know what it means to be in a group chat where I know almost no one and they are talking about thinks that only relate to them, so maybe that's the majority of the experience you've had?

Yes, it's really good! I do think that it can become a bit repetitive towards the end, but it's worth it for the beginning moments of exploration and discovery. If you haven't played a similar game like Morrowind before, I'd recommend looking for a guide that would explain character creation and skills. I never played the original, so I am no purist and would encourage you to check out some QoL mods and definitely turn on smaller dungeons in the settings, even for a first playtrough. Have fun, if you decide to try it!

I bought The Farmer Was Replaced yestarday, so I'll probably be finishing it over the weekend. It's a cute programming incremental game, but if you have 0 experience with writing code the later challenges might get too difficult

I was going to say Factorio as well! :D Hollow Knight has a native port and is a fantastic game, but my favorite games are ones like OpenMW or DevilutionX where the entire engine is remade from the ground up and open-source

Yes, but will it change my mind about crossbows? I always assumed that these games which were specifically designed with the wiimote in mind are not really worth playing with a mouse. I never tried any, so I could be wrong

Never played it, but my biggest problem is with medieval fantasy type games, as I said in the post, I was fine using a crossbow in Half-Life. That said, I will not care if a crossbow is more powerful, I'll use a regular bow instead if available

Ah, if only I had a wiimote
In all the games I've played (one exception being Half-Life, but that's different) I really don't like using crossbows and avoid doing so at all costs. I don't really know why that is, but to me they don't seem to fit the setting of games like Elder Scrolls or Gothic. I love using regular bows, however. Maybe crossbows feel too modern for me? I don't really know anything about medieval weapons or when they were invented. What about you? How do you feel about crossbows in these types of games or do you have a similar weird thing you just don't like and refuse to do in video games?

Hello, I've installed Fedora 38 (KDE spin), about the time it came out and need a little help updating it. I got a system update through Discover when 39 came out, I updated it restarted, and I didn't think much of it. Now that Fedora 40 came out, I did the same thing, but this time, after the update, I checked the system information in the settings, and it says that I am still running Fedora 38! I have a dual boot system with Windows 10 (ugh, but I need it for work) and I noticed that in grub the option to boot Fedora also says 38. There are also some recovery boot options. I'm confused and don't know what to do to update to 40? Would really like to avoid doing a fresh install. I'd say I'm a novice Linux user, but this is the first time in dealing with something like this, so sorry if I missed some crucial information, will provide anything needed to help fix this issue. Thanks in advance!

If I understand correctly, you feel weird that she knew about you transitioning, but didn't say anything. To me, it sounds like a nice thing: she waited for you to be ready, allowed you to say it on your own terms instead of risking to confront you at a bad time. Also, you say that your relationship wasn't the best with her, but she still knew, to me that sounds like she still has a strong connection with you and feels and senses you the way only a mother does, which is great because it sounds like you really care about your relationship with your parents.

As a junior dev, who mainly works with C#, wf improvements are they talking about? I always thought that C++ is way better for when performance is important, like in emulation. At my company, the seniors keep talking about how we should move away form .NET to C++.

If I had a Vita, I'd play Silent Hill Book of Memories. I heard it's a really bad game, but as a Silent Hill fan, I'd still like to try it as it is exclusive to that console.
Also, Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3 on a handheld sound pretty cool

I'm pretty sure that people pirating games have little to do with the current surge micro transaction filled games. It's the opposite, the people who buy all that shit and let companies get away with it are to blame.

I've encountered a problem, not sure if it's related to the update or not. On both Eternity and browser my Subscribed feed shows posts from All. From Eternity only upvoting posts fails with a 401 code, but I seem to be able to do it on the browser. Any one else encountered some like that?

I absolutely loved Hollow Knight, it was a much needed proof to me that video games can still be fun and suck me in.
I never played any souls game before it for more than a few minutes at a friends place and in the mid game I too thought that I would not be able to finish it. But I'd say I got quite good at it by just playing the way I wanted to and exploring. Yes, I did have to leave some bosses and come back later, but it always felt doable and never unfair. Granted, I did not complete the whole 112% of the game, but that's something that I liked about it, it felt like I could do all that I wanted, felt satisfied with and leave.
Anyway, my point is, don't worry about the difficulty too much, I think the game is balanced in such a way, where there are always things to do at your skill level.
Also, if you don't feel like you are getting better at it and just getting better gear, I'd recommend starting a new temporary save and seeing how far you can get to without dying. I cannot describe how much this surprised me, how all the patterns I memorized stayed with me and how much I could do with minimal upgrades.

Hasn't changed much since
I have a laptop with a Ryzen 7 5700U, 16 GB ram, running Fedora 38 linux. I'm looking to run a local uncensored LLM, I'd like to know what would be the best model and software to run it. I'm currently running KoboldAI and Erebus 2.7b. It's okay in terms of speed, but I'm wondering if there's anything better out there. I guess, I would prefer something that is not web-ui based to lower the overhead, if possible. I'm not very well versed in all the lingo yet, so please keep it simple. Thanks!
I think we all draw a line between privacy and convenience and I think I found mine and settled into a comfort zone of sorts. I use Fedora 38. My browser is Mozilla Firefox with it's "strict" setting. uBlock origin and uMatrix. When I need/want to use a site that doesn't work due to blocked connections I relax the restrictions in uMatrix or temporarily disable it entirely if I get frustrated or I'm in a hurry. I watch videos on YouTube. Don't use social media, but I do use Facebook messenger (although I prefer to use Signal with the handful of people I can). I use a Xiaomi phone with custom ad blocking DNS (I'd like to get a Pixel with GrapheneOS someday). I look for an app on F-Droid first, but install it through Google Play if I can't find what I need there. I use Qwant and DuckDuckGo. I use ReVanced. I do not use a VPN. I think that's all the relevant information. My question is: how easy do you think it still is for big tech to track me? Are there any suggestions you would have for a person like me that wouldn't sacrifice too much convenience?
