I love 1&2, but haven’t played any of the others. I’ve played some of The Dark Mod and it also has that same feeling.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 1 day ago:
Ive started a replay of BATTLETECH (2016), this time with all of the DLC. I need something turn based for now and this really scratches that itch. I love how good the gameplay is and the gritty graphics fit the setting so well.

The mount point changing like that means that it disconnected and then reconnected. That really makes it sound like the drive isn’t getting quite enough power, which causes a brown out, which Linux detects as the drive getting unplugged and coming back, which is why it gets a new dev entry.
A look through the usb logs by using something like usbrip would confirm that.

Interesting. When you say that they show up as a different drive completely, do you mean that their UUIDs change, or that they get mounted at a different point?
Anyway, random disconnection sounds like a hardware issue, maybe a USB brownout, as much as anything else. What’s your connection setup, distro and kernel version?

My partner, who is a non-gamer loves WytchWood, which is a rather slow paced crafting and wander around the woods game in a fairy tale setting.

Eh? I’ve never had a problem with reading NTFS drives in linux, including USB sticks and SATA/USB adapters. Are you just wanting to read them or use them as read/write? Write is a bit more tricky, requiring ntfs-3g, but most reasonable distros come with that nowadays.

Mint. It’s a great, simple, well supported first distro. And last distro, TBH. I know plenty of people like to distro hop as a hobby, but if you just want to use your machine pick a well supported basic distro and stick with it. Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora are all good options, but Mint is really aimed at newcomers.

Except, you know, for everyone that has an iRobot device that is going to lose connectivity soon.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to support anything from iRobot. I’m hoping that there will be a jailbreak made available before they go bankrupt, but I doubt it.
- Comment on Is it bad if I'm 31 and I feel genuinely sad and empty that a mythical creature isn't real? 6 days ago:
I mean, I’m pretty upset that I won’t be able to see a living pentaceratops, seismosaurus, or T-Rex. So, no, I think it’s fine.
- Comment on A list of open source games. 1 week ago:
Two thumbs up for The Dark Mod, which started as expansion of the best stealth games of all time.
- Comment on Valves first title with a 3 in it 1 week ago:
I know you’re joking, and that would be enough to get me to buy one even though I don’t really have a use case for it.

Or even unscented.

Sure is a good thing that you don’t have any hobbies that use any resources whatsoever otherwise you’d seem awfully hypocritical complaining about someone with a checks notes gardening hobby.

It’s all good, most of the US doesn’t remember that NM is a state.

Like I’m from the US state New Mexico.
- Comment on What’s wrong, babe? You barely touched your Spaghetacos 5 weeks ago:
New Mexican here. Get some green chile on there and it’ll be fine.

Not at all. Until roughly 150-200 years ago infant and childhood mortality was almost 50% worldwide, which of course massively brings down the average lifespan. If someone made it to 20, they would probably make it to 60 and have a good chance of seeing 70 or more.

- Comment on What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am? 2 months ago:
Slightly joking, slightly not: Bi means you’re over 35, Pan means you’re under 35 and Omni means you’re thought about it too much.

Typical rule I’ve seen is don’t date anyone younger than half your age + seven, so for your friend that would be 16. So, it’s right on the borderline.
- Comment on How do phone scammers work? I get them trying to get another persons money. But how do they get all the info and now can do voice fakes. I highly doubt they just pick a random person and say fuck them 2 months ago:
It’s really depends on the scam, but some of them really do pick a random person. Or, rather the autodialer/autotexter that they are using does. I’ve gotten several scam texts in the last week fishing for info.
Further, there is a lot of into out on the web. Some is just an easy look up for name and adddres from a phone number, other data is pulled from breaches that ends up public or for sale.
- Comment on Not stealing 2 months ago:
So true. I have two and they’re complete opposites. Every single thing that one is easy about the other is hard. I thought that the second would be easier because I learned some things from the first, but every lesson was useless.
- Comment on Not stealing 2 months ago:
I’m so feeling this this morning. I asked the 4yo if he wanted cereal or yogurt for breakfast. He screams “I’m not hungry! I want mama!”, runs to his room and slams the door. Two minutes later he comes out and punches me in the dick while I’m making lunches.

Considering the names of the types of quarks, I recommend renaming them genderinos.
