I can play Fallout 4 in full screen

For years I was stuck with a setup where my main monitor was plugged into the GPU via HDMI, but my secondary monitor only had VGA, for which the card did not have a port. My motherboard does have one, though. Using that basically worked... with random issues popping up both now on Linux and way back in the dark times.

One of these issues was that FO4 would not display correctly in full screen. It looked fine in windowed, but the cursor would be confined to the top left area of the screen, unless I had my second monitor, physically on the left, virtually on the right instead.

I just inherited a new card and I took the financial hit of a cheeseburger's worth for a VGA-DisplayPort adapter, and now it works just fine in full screen!

    If so, I think they only eat dead stuff. But I also heard they can sometimes chew on roots (and there are a lot of them here...)

  • Really have to make uBlock work to keep it sane nowadays. Best to just ditch it for any alternate frontend.

    Me, I just loaded all my subs into an RSS reader and now I watch it all through mpv. Wouldn't recommend, but one of the best decisions i've ever made.

  • Deleting Timeshift Snapshots ?
  • Yep. Would be pretty bad software otherwise. Best to set it up so it keeps one monthly, one weekly, and 2-3 daily snapshots. Then you don't even need to think about it, and it deletes older ones automatically. You can still do manual snapshots, and it won't delete those.

    Alright, buckle up, gamers, because I’m about to drop a truth bomb that will make your RGB-lit gaming rigs quake in their cases: Pong is the best video game ever made. Yeah, I said it. And here’s why. 1. Simplicity is Genius: Pong takes the concept of a video game and strips it down to its bare esse...

  • I tried playing Stalker SoC, but I can't get the audio working. Game works fine otherwise. I'm on Arch now, but I think I had the same issue on Mint and got it fixed somehow.

    -dsound switches the sound player according to the logs, but still no sound.

    Switching out OpenAL.dll didn't do much either.

    Any ideas?

    edit: they are actually converting their food. I thought they were literally stealing honey... whoops

    The issue is still open! The merge request seems to be almost ready. Though there hasn't been any new development since May.

  • Sounds neat! I'll check it out later!

    I'm basically tied to newsboat now (and I'm not complaining), but something where I don't have to hack it up with git would be nice, I suppose!

    Might want to fill out your privacy policy :)

  • The first case of appendicitis is a harrowing tale of the only medically trained person on the whole continent having to cut into himself or face certain death.

    The second one just did it for the lulz.

    Female-to-male rape, (how) does it happen without roofies?
  • UK too https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/part/1/crossheading/rape

    A person (A) commits an offence if—

    (a) he intentionally penetrates the vagina, anus or mouth of another person (B) with his penis,

    (b) B does not consent to the penetration, and

    (c) A does not reasonably believe that B consents.

    So I guess Mark was not raped.
