Providing their location data is already a thing. Apparently they feel threatened by it.

First thing, change the sign up front to “Ripley’s Believe It or Not” so people will know they’re going to see a mix of facts with some crazy make-believe bullshit.

Sounds like you are trying to use the “force compatibility” option inside of Steam? I switched out to Linux a few weeks ago. Installed Steam, initially thought I had to tell it what version of Proton to use for each game. Found that I was better off ignoring it, not using any forced compatibility option, and let Steam figure it out. My games run with very few issues that way. I just make sure I have the latest nvidia drivers, which it appears you do. Hope you get it running.

I tried both the flatpack and app image options for running Orca, but neither worked for me under Kubuntu.

That’s one I haven’t heard of. I’ll have to check it out.

That sounds like another possible option. I did see there was an Orca package for Arch; I would like to keep running Orca since I’m used to it, so going with an Arch distro might be the way to go.

My printer is a Ender 3 S1 Pro, running Klipper/Mainsail on a raspberry pi SBC.

Good to know Mint might be an option. I’ve used it before, could check it out again. I ran it on a Frankenstein’s monster of really old computer parts I cobbled together as a PC for my work room. Mainly just to stream music and reference videos online while doing projects.

Yep, downloaded the flatpack from Ubuntu repository. Sounds like folks are having similar issues with Orca, Cura, possibly Prusa if I remember what I read correctly. Since AnyCubic is a fork from Orca, not surprised it’s plagued with the same problems.

Thanks for the link. If Orca will run fine under Ubuntu, I may just switch over to that instead. I’m not hugely invested in Kubuntu yet, so it won’t be painful to do. Installing Ubuntu inside a Docker container inside of Kubuntu, just to run Orca, seems too matryoshka-ish for me.

I have no idea what coffee shop it was, just some random place my wife and I stopped at while traveling. But yeah, the mocha with cinnamon and cayenne is great, especially on cool and rainy days. The heat from the spice adds to the warmth of the drink.

I’ll occasionally make up coffee in the morning with chocolate, cinnamon, and a few shakes of cayenne pepper. Coffee shop I went to once did the same thing, called it an Aztec Mocha. Very good.

When I was a kid my dad would take us to Halo Burger in the Flint, Michigan area once in a while. Haven’t gone in decades, since I grew up and moved away from the state. Something about how the burger was seasoned, just delicious. Nowadays I usually stop by Culver’s for a double deluxe, now that there’s one not far from the house (did earlier today, actually).

Lorena Bobbitt, the renewed American hero for every young woman.

Unless they are all closeted homosexuals, blackmail is useless at this point. They’ve seen that the base will punch the ticket for every “R” candidate regardless of any transgression aside from being gay or trying to work across the aisle.

Yes her hair was green as seaweed, Her skin was blue and pale, Her legs they are a work of art, I loved that girl with all my heart, And I don’t give a damn about the upper part, Cause that’s how I get my tail! (The Mermaid by Great Big Sea)

The Dirtbag Diaries, The Moth, This American Life

None of these are programming related. I think quite a few people know about the last two, but Dirtbag Diaries probably less so. If you enjoy the outdoors, hiking, climbing, biking, whatever, it’s worth checking out.

If so, I wanna see what happens if you plug in a usb mouse jiggler.

It’s a dual drive redundant setup. Unless something catastrophic happens, I doubt both drives will go out at the same time. I could do an offsite backup as well, but just haven’t.
