Quoting: 14ChatGPT makes learning new things really convenient.

Not on any topic about which a moderate or greater amount of bullshit is talked. ChatGPT does not know the difference between true facts and errors, lies, and random murfle from internet bozos. It will mix all this together in anything it "teaches" you.
You might be OK on very specialized topics that hardly anyone talks about at all unless they know a lot about 'em.

I was not broadly speaking. Pair it with my context.

I'm glad to see there is a Flathub available. That was a task I had started to try to take on myself (never done it before), but I never got it completed. I feel a little bad for that, but am relieved someone grunted through it.

ChatGPT makes learning new things really convenient. I would have used that if I took another shot.

Quoting: GroganI didn't take the time earlier, but I just wasted some reading a bunch of those "overwhelmingly negative" reviews for this on Steam. It is overwhelmingly, review bombing. I actually am disappointed, I was expecting some of that, but I've yet to find one that I would mark as helpful. It's not my kind of game, so I won't be seeing for myself, didn't play the first one etc.

Most of it as about as constructive as drawing an ascii middle finger and far less thoughtful than that, even lol

Some of it just complaining about the change from paid to free-to-play model itself that they were all but forced into. (Fair enough, at least)

If you're going to post a bad review for a game (I have, when thoroughly disgusted with a game but I've also posted praising reviews), at least state what it is you don't like about it. Be snide and sarcastic if you want, even, but at least make a point.

P.S. Here's one that at least has some substance:

I am completely on the same page as you. At the same time, I think it's pretty obvious (voice of professor Gilderoy Lockhart) gamers (consumers) want a public voice somewhere. Reviews of the game are not appropriate for business choices and generic customer experience, but where else is appropriate? I think it's fair the feedback to be conveniently accessible from store pages, too, a bit less prominent than the game reviews.

I love choosing the extreme sides of Linux distros: Debian for servers and Arch for desktops.

It's quite amazing to use such impressive and free software.

Quoting: 14Save yourself the headache and use a single partition layout next time. The benefits of multiple partitions on the same disk are not worth it.

I don't mess with much, but I do very much like to keep a separate /home partition.

What are you gaining from that? When you copy to a new drive, do you do it at block level or something? Are you using different mount options? Different filesystem? I'm curious why you like it very much, enough to have to manage a synthetic size limitation.

Quoting: LoftyThe problem i have had consistently across mint installs and different hardware is that the Boot partition fills really quickly when i added the custom kernal. This means i have to manually clear out older entries (try not to do the wrong one by mistake). It keeps happening and all i have done is choose the same upgrade option as is available to everyone else.
It's a pain, it's pretty unprofessional to have to do this on a distro that promotes ease of use..

Like someone else said, I too have a bit of an endearing feeling towards Mint since it was the first distro I dual-booted with seriousness. But it's been about eight years since I replaced it with Arch, and there still isn't anything close to making me want to switch even though I play with distros in VM's frequently.

Quoting: GuestI hope they add more options for inventory management in future updates. I think they just shamelessly need to copy pathfinder in this respect: past act 1 every non-magical gear is basically junk, so it'd be a real improvement to just be able to classify this as junk and sell it instead of 'adding to wares' individually or manually selling it at a trader.

It's not as good as classifying a weapon type or rarity as junk, but you can at least multi-select with Ctrl or Shift to add multiple items to Wares in one action.

Quoting: 14I am not experiencing any problems with the game. I am not running any launch options, no MangoHUD, the normal Proton (not GE), mainline kernel. It's too bad several of you are mentioning bugs, but I have to wonder why. The game was in EA for a LONG time, so I was confident enough to buy it on release day. I'm quite happy.

Are you using DirectX or Vulkan? nvidia or amd gpu? (Or Intel?).

I'm not running it with any launch options or anything either, I can't tell if the weird film thing is due to an actual on-purpose effect, my eyes getting old, or what. But in Vulkan, definitely get randomly black boxes popping around. Been seeing other reports of that one though.

I'm on AMD and have only used Vulkan so far.

I did experience my first crash yesterday after I think patch #2. It was during the launch of the game. It loaded to 67%, froze, and then crashed. The crash detector said to verify files, which I did. There was a checkbox to do it in the crash detector instead of doing it through Steam. After that, it worked again. I was worried it was going to ruin my first co-op session, but it worked out.
