What are your games to get into the season for its vibe?


I mean games you played / you are going to play.

My list looks like this for example:
- Summer: DAVE THE DIVER
- Autumn: Against the Storm
- Winter: Frostpunk 2
- Spring: Terra Nil

What are yours?

[Star Trucker] (store.steampowered.com/app/238…) - omg. Bought it about a week ago, it's devoured my spare time.

Never tried a trucker sim before, usually more into base building, but daym--throw some scifi in there and I'm hooked! All the levers and switches work and are satisfying to pull. Blast through the short tutorial, put on some music, decompress, and just driiiive(/float).



Solution to my Thinkpad E16 Wi-Fi Woes


Continued From:
startrek.website/post/13283869
startrek.website/post/14075369

I managed to fix the one biggest gripe about my Thinkpad E16: the RTL8852BE Wi-Fi controller randomly dropping out. I actually found this a few days ago, but I had forgotten where I put the file I had edited. You put a file in modprobe.d called 70-rtw89.conf. Both /etc/modprobe.d/ and /usr/lib/modprobe.d work - I used the latter, but for the sake of conventions, you should probably use the former.

You then put in these options for the rtw89 module: options rtw89_pci disable_clkreq=y disable_aspm_l1=y disable_aspm_l1ss=y

Now, my Thinkpad is a fully functional Linux laptop. I will be docking it to an 8 from my initial score of 8.5, but I'm back to liking it for now. If you apply the fix, be sure to update the firmware as well - some older distros have an old version that works but returns a lot of journalctl error on this card.

Update: What do you know! The updated firmware-realtek just went into backports!

Thanks, bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sou…

According to the repair manual, my Wi-Fi card is actually replaceable, at least physically. I don’t know if Lenovo still does BIOS whitelists of cards like they used to (I think they did remove it a few years back.), but their OEM parts website has a diverse selection if this fix were ever to break.

I’d say other than the bottom being a bother to remove (and the keyboard not being designed to be replaced, though after some research, it seems possible), this is a surprisingly repairable laptop for how recent it it. It has dual SSD bays and a DIMM slot.

Oh that's good then. I think they stopped using whitelists a while ago, so if it is slotted you can probably replace it with anything. Maybe they reversed course on soldered modules then, or perhaps it only applied to some models. I looked into specs of the T16 at some point, and that one had soldered wifi module.

Map of 2000+ lemmy communities


cross-posted from: lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/27579423

This is my first try at creating a map of lemmy. I based it on the overlap of commentors that visited certain communities.

I only used communities that were on the top 35 active instances for the past month and limited the comments to go back to a maximum of August 1 2024 (sometimes shorter if I got an invalid response.)

I scaled it so it was based on percentage of comments made by a commentor in that community.

Here is the code for the crawler and data that was used to make the map:

Long distances actually don't really mean much it can't be guaranteed that they actually correlate to much. It is mostly the local groups that are conserved and a bit of the global structure.

Not bad specs, aside from that CPU. It is terrible. My wii probably has more processing power than that.

See Saturn at its biggest and brightest tonight before its rings 'disappear' in 2025


late but nice pictures. my unread email has been hovering around 200 lately. road trip
in reply to m3t00🌎

I either saw this or maybe a twinkling Sirius. I was on the balcony and noticed a white dot that was flashing different colors like red and green. I asked my partner what a UFO looks like lol. It never moved, just kept flashing light like a disco star. I looked it up and came across twinkling, and specifically Sirius. I'm just now seeing that Saturn could have been visible

pretty sure this was a planet NW of me a few days ago. not sure which. no twinkling
in reply to m3t00🌎

I don't think it was that big, but I'm in the middle of Arkansas so I don't know how it would look from here. I didn't realize twinkling was a phenomena. Pretty cool to learn about. I think the atmosphere bends the light?

The light flickering on stars and planets has to do with the Earth's atmosphere. In a dark sky look straight up and the stars directly above you will blink much less, and as you look at stars closer and closer to the horizon, they start to blink more and more. The worse your overall seeing conditions are for the night, the more intense the blinking can get.


It seems that Lemmy has dropped to 28k Monthly Active Users according to join-lemmy.org

I just noticed that active users on Lemmy got slashed, what happened?

The current top comment to the thread you linked to answers the question. Short answer is lemmy.world is now excluded from the numbers to avoid further centralization of uses to that instance.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) discovered a distant galaxy, JADES-GS-z13-1-LA, that emits a type of light called the Lyman-α emission line. This light is usually blocked by the intergalactic medium (the space between galaxies) and has never been seen from a galaxy this early in the universe's history, just 326 million years after the Big Bang

This discovery is puzzling because it challenges our understanding of how light travels through space and how early galaxies formed. Scientists are now trying to figure out why this galaxy's light isn't blocked like others.

We're essentially seeing hydrogen in a galaxy that is technically too young to have it.

A Small Tool to Make Modding Proton Games Easier


in reply to Confetti Camouflage

It doesn't currently allow for concurrent execution of EXE files, but that's a good idea. I'll see about implementing it.

I just want an easy way to use WeMod. There's this but it's usage is very complicated.


Seeking up to three Steam Deck owners to help playtest backgammon game on Steam


Boxcars is coming soon on Steam. If you own a Steam Deck, and know how to play backgammon or are willing to learn, I would appreciate it if you played a game or two using your Deck, and then let me know your feedback. Let me know if you are interested, and I will send you a key.
