No.

They are all terrible movies, with droid-like performances, plot holes the size of a Sarlacc pit and effects and fight choreographies as pointless as the little pistons on the exterior of a surrogate hand.

Mark Hamill should be ashamed of agreeing to participate in them, even more to compensate the fact that apparently Ford cannot help himself from doing it here and in the Indy movies.

The game is The Entropy Centre. Midnight Fight Express, which I have finished right before, doesn't seem to be affected.

Since 2 days ago the game (not Steam) started returning the error:

"A D3D11-compatible GPU (Feature Level 11.0, Shader Model 5.0) is required to run the engine."

I am on LMDE6.

Proton Hotfix or Experimental or 9.0-4 are not working.

Proton 8.0-5 is the first one that works, but with some significant lagging, but I am positive I played the same version of the game using Experimental a few days ago with no lagging and on same Nvidia drivers (535.216.01).

An FPS counter titled VK (I guess from Vulkan) shows when running 8.0, while it didn't in Experimental.

I have tried resetting the shader precaching in the settings, but nothing changes.

The game was also uninstalled and reinstalled, to no avail.

Any tips for debugging this?

Yes, but this is a gameplay trailer. It should show me realistic gameplay experience on a PS5, a platform I would expect Playstation to be boasting about.

It may be too much to ask but here it goes:

I have temporarily installed LMDE6 on an HDD where I had a bit of free space, worked with it, experienced Steam with Proton and now I am convinced: I want to move to Linux from Windows for good.

Have another disk, an SSD in which most of the space is taken up by the Windows C: partition. Would like to move Linux there after shrinking the Windows partition a bit more than what it currently occupies now.

I have tried to do this with Paragon on Windows, but after restarting no change can be seen, despite no error being presented. Tried from Linux with GParted but all attempts end up with an error when running ntfsresize.

So

  1. What do I use to do this and how do I do it safely? 2.How do I move the content of my current Linux partition (less than 50 GBs) to that disk keeping the bootloader and everything else working? And what filesystem is best to use?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Anyone here working on Figma Desktop in Linux? It is the one activity that keeps me from completely shifting to Linux from Windows since it is something I do when I work remotely.

Would something like Bottles help? Or are there even simpler ways that do not involve working from the browser or looking for alternatives?

Disclaimer: I am very new to Linux (1 week).

I have installed the Valve version of Steam on LMDE6. I have used Disks to automatically mount the NTFS drive I used with Windows (doesn't hold bootloader, it is just for Steam library storage) at boot ( /media/[username]/Gaming ) and I made it the default library folder in Steam.

Running games works perfectly (actually, performance is surprisingly good), but I cannot install them due to a "disk write error".

I looked for solutions and found this page, from which I understand that I need to change permissions to the mounting point, but when I do, using chown -R, I get a "Read-only filesystem" error for all files and folders.

I can see no options to fix this in Disks and I tried to edit fstab once, but it messed things up so badly I had to use the USB drive with the portable installer to fix things.

I mean, sure, it's not as population dense as the USA, or Mexico, but Canada is huge, your people are nice, you have some of the best entertainment companies on the planet (namely Cirque du Soleil and Pornhub), your natural resources and attractions are unbelievable and your actors are the best (especially the BSG/Chronicles of Riddick cast).

And yet, as an Italian with an international perspective (lived abroad for the last 16 years and visited the USA and South America repeatedly), I have been not "Canada-aware" for most of my life.

I get it that you are not boasting like your neighbors (and that alone makes you better than them imho), but how come that I was left to realize only today that the Manitoba flour I used to make pizza all my life takes its name from one of your provinces, while I know about all the shitty pizzas the US made up in a century.

Same thing goes for Latin American countries, even the ones I never visited, like Mexico or Argentina.

I shall visit soon and I hope you can take the chance to teach me more in the meanwhile.

I barely use it, even at work and just got this group invitation. Have I been lucky till now or is this new?

Just like Mussolini.

I heard an Italian military analyst recently defining an Iran-US war as "Netanyahu's childhood dream". Seems like Trump is working hard to make his dreams come true.

That's in line with being from Switzerland. Act cool, but be sure to stick with the richer people and do their interest. Never used Proton (I use Tuta instead) for that reason only. You are free to call me racist.

That's cheeky.

And the Russian economy at this point.

I would like to know what Modi said exactly to elicit such response. I know the guy is not of my liking already, but lately I am interested in knowing whether he is just playing as a relay for Putin or rather distancing himself from him.

Why unfortunate? They match quite well if you ask me.

Am I the only one who finds the 1950s version also not nice from an urban planning perspective? I mean, it is a car-centered design anyway.
