Quoting: BTRE

Quoting: WorMzyDon't downgrade your openssl package, you'll break everything that now depends on the new soname (including pacman! Well done!).

Not true in this instance. openssl is at its latest version on my system (1.1.0.e-1) and I only downgraded openssl-1.0 to 1.0.2.k-2. No breakage to either pacman or anything else insofar I can tell.

I'm not sure how you managed this. Curl has been rebuilt against openssl 1.1.0.e-1 (libssl.so.1.1.0), removing it (by downgrading openssl) will cause pacman to break with "error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".

Downgrading is not a solution, and just downgrading one package amounts to a partial upgrade.

Wow, so much bad advice in such a short amount of time!

Don't symlink the new soname to masquerade it as the old soname. Don't downgrade your openssl package, you'll break everything that now depends on the new soname (including pacman! Well done!). STiAT had the closest to the correct solution, but [never "-Sy" anything](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/System_maintenance#Partial_upgrades_are_unsupported [External Link]).

See https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/53618 [External Link], particularly Christoph Haag's comment.

I don't get who/what these cards are aimed at?

Cuda developers, university academics and the like.

I very much enjoyed the one GoL did previously, I'll be keeping a close eye on this!

I wouldn't even know where to begin coding a game, so I won't be participating, but best of luck to all those who do.

Alas, the Switch. :S:

It's hella fun, particularly LoZ.

Also Digimon World on the PS4, also very fun, but is definitely a marathon rather than a sprint. You spend a lot more time raising Digimon than exploring, at least at the start of the game.

On Linux, I last played Deus Ex and L4D2. Deus Ex is as fun as it was on day one, but I'm still stuck looking at everything. I've just finished The Rucker Extraction, and am on my way to my extraction point.

L4D2 is still fun if you have a group of people to play with. Once in a while the stars align and we get a game in.

EDIT: Oooh, caek!

Awesome! :D

So was this the Fort du Kremlin-Bicetre teaser, or is that still a mystery?

Fair enough. I've never played Call of Duty, so I have no idea how it plays.

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionBallistic is the closest thing we have to the major multiplayer shooters.

I'm curious what you think of CounterStrike: GO and TF2 then. CounterStrike was the major multiplayer shooter when I was younger, and although TF2 is more of a hat simulator these days, I hear it still has shooter and multiplayer elements.
