baby steps is hilarious! i’m on my second playthrough right now trying to find all the cutscenes because they’re so good

can you not just call me out by my full name here jeez

my favorite procrastination strategy is to clean my apartment instead of doing the thing i need to do because hey now my apartment is clean thats pretty sweet ive been meaning to do that (not that a clean apartment helps me do the thing i actually need to do in any way)

completely agree - if he sucks so much why dedicate so much mental space to an insignificant stranger who streams games or development or whatever online?

i guess people just love to follow minor e-celeb drama, but the biggest dunk you can make against someone like this is to just stop thinking and talking about them. reading people type about this stuff is like being in high school again lol

rip terry <3

yeah idk man that sounds like communism so im gonna have to arrest you. also what if a brown person benefits from that??? god forbid

i just memorized the entire web so i dont need to browse anymore. browsers are bloat

finally someone who gets it

barony!

my friends and i were just getting into the game and we didn’t know how long a good run could go.

for the uninitiated, barony is a coop roguelite that is very difficult especially in the early game, so all our runs had died relatively quickly. we had no clue that a winning run could take over 3 hours… so we celebrated our victory in the morning sunlight.

all ex-league players who i’ve spoken with (myself included) refer to league of legends and breaking free from it as if they were raised in a cult or dealing with life-ruining substance abuse that still affects them to this day

omg bestie

in case anyone is reading this looking for a solution the cable was not the culprit

nothing in between the computer and monitor - it’s just plugged straight in. my current guess is that some step of pacman’s install/update process changes something that also gets changed by something else (DE, config file, idk) after the boot.

could you elaborate?

i’ve been just dealing with this problem for an embarrassing amount of time now, and have gone through several version updates of the nvidia drivers with this problem persisting. i’ve also tried reinstalling the nvidia drivers with no change.

no unfortunately god’s intended resolution is just slippin right into my arch install uninvited

that’s worth checking - i don’t have a spare DP cable on hand to test, but you may be onto something.

previously, i tried unplugging and replugging the cable on the PC end, as well as trying other ports, to no avail.

just now, i tried replugging the end plugged into the monitor a few times and was able to reproduce the resolution issue a single time. this honestly just confuses me more though, because why would it happen only one time out of several cycles doing the exact same thing?

i’m gonna get another cable just to be sure but that wont be for a few days at least.

while i appreciate the effort, this has no effect on my issue. also maybe worth noting, i am using grub but not nomodeset. i toggled it on just to see if it would do anything but the problem persists.

if you look at my xrandr output on the first boot, the main problem is that it cannot see any other mode except 640x480 and running xrandr --output DP-0 --mode 1920x1080 fails. i cannot change it using plasma’s display settings gui or xrandr in any way - the only way i know how to get access to the other resolution/rate settings of that monitor is by rebooting.

all they need to do is stop being so scary and we can be chillin

i really like how this is just about the games. no corporations, no awkward presenters on a stage, just a bunch of cool games i would not have known about otherwise.

thanks for posting this - got a few new games on my wishlist :)

stuff them into a sack maybe

corporation yet again proving that if you want to be free to use your own things that you paid for on your own computer you can never trust anything that requires an internet connection to not trample all over your rights

love it very cool really vibing with the current state of software and the internet
