I did just that… and now I spend the same amount of time browsing Lemmy on Firefox…

Though there was like 4 days where I cut down…

So if a cheater wins hard enough, it can be called “fair and square”? Not sure what specifics could get me on board with that.

Perhaps, but with all of the voter suppression and election rigging that has been done by the Republicans, can you really say he won “fair and square” at this point?

Seconding this. And as another lemming said, moving a working setup from a Windows system can make your life easier. But once you have MO2 running, most mods can just be installed in it like normal. Though SteamOS makes it more trouble than its with to auto download mods via mod manager. Easier just to use the manual download option and then manually install it. (I set my MO2 downloads folder to be ~/Downloads to make my lifer easier on this)

Also, there is a Linux specific version of the 4GB patch. You have to make it executable and run it in the terminal to actually get it to patch.

You can run things like the BSA decompressor using proton tricks.

Or you can just run the 4GB patch and the BSA decompressor on a windows install and then copy the whole FNV folder over to your deck (overwriting files). That works too.

If you are a TTW kind of guy, do that on Windows, making it an installable mod, and then just copy that over. And do it before the BSA decompressor, or you will need to make a clean install of FNV.

Honestly, if you install MO2 using the link Headbangerd17 linked above, you can pretty much just follow the Viva New Vegas gude. Just use protontricks for the BSA decompressor and the Ultimate ESM fixes things, and the linux specific 4gb patch. Or again, do all of it on Windows and copy over the game folder and the MO2 folder.

P.S. Its possible to get a complete setup on the deck alone, but if you go that route, it will save a lot of time to plug in a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Or pair it to your work computer via SteamLink and do it while you’re supposed to be working.

P.P.S xLODGen can be added to MO2 and run on Linux just like it can on Windows. Though the SteamDeck does take a long time to actually generate LOD, so best to do it in chunks to make sure it looks good. It’s really sad when all the rocks look like stretched buildings after you waited for all worldspaces to generate. Trust me.

Your not wrong, though that kinda re-enforces my point. What would it take to convince a society to abandon an inherently unethical economic system?

This will be something of a unhelpful and unpopular answer, by you probably can’t.

What would convince you to stop eating meat from factory farms? What would convince you to only buy electronics from completely ethically sourced companies? What would convince you to only eat healthy nutritional food? To exercise regularly? So on and so forth?

There are many good and important, but inconvenient, things to do. But for most folks, the first step is wanting to. If he doesn’t, it will be an uphill battle.

Comparison mostly. HD and 3D isn’t impressing you by virtue of it being superior to real life (it isn’t after all), it’s impressing you compared to other examples of the same thing done “worse”. The best portrait artist in the world can not make something look more “real” than the reference material, but it can compared to other attempts at painting.

This is true in other natural things as well. For example, a really big tree surrounded by smaller similar sized trees feels “really impressive” compared to a mountain surrounded by other… similar sized mountains. Or why a particularly colorful plant seems impressive surrounded by a bunch of green and brown plants.

On the other hand, things like OLED screens can be impressive compared to the natural world due to their ability to arrange and display colors rarely found in nature.

Weird, seems like we had the opposite experience. On my home network SteamLink is usually about 30-40ms for me, where Moonlight is around 10ms.

Remotely SteamLink is usually about 50ms higher than Moonlight.

This is true when connecting to my Windows and Linux machines.

Well you see, when a capitalist and a politician love eachother money very much, they engage in an act of love collusion. This gets both of them very much money. So much in fact, that they couldn’t possibly hold on to all of it. And the money that falls out of their pocket trickles down to every one! Thus, products are improved, and everyone gets their needs met!

This is the free market in action, and anyone who disagrees is a dirty Commie!

Everything is about US. That’s why we are called US!

It’s really easy to avoid sentencing, I’ve done it all my life by following one simple rule: Don’t Do Crimes.

Yeah, sorry, I misunderstood this to mean, “not doing crimes == not being convicted”. Which sounded a lot like the “if you’re innocent, you have nothing to fear from the police” mentality.

As much as Trump is obviously guilty as fuck, I’m not willing to adopt the “if you’ve done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear from the cops law” mentality.

But in the end, they’d really only be cheating themselves.

1 vegetarian baby or?

Cost cutting, the advent of digital distribution, as well as technological and game design improvements that allowed for such information to be conveyed in game, all contributed to game manuals becoming less and less valuable. Due to these factors, they kept getting smaller and smaller until one day the just stopped being commonly made.

Though my nostalgia still misses them (and strategy guides).

Piggybacking on to this excellent comment to elaborate on modding New Vegas. Everything except NVR works great! I’d recommend using this to install MO2

4GB patcher has a Linux specific version on the Nexus Mods page.

You can run most tools like the BSA decompressor or the TTW installer using Protontricks.

xLODGen can be added as a tool to MO2 and just works.

edit: Forgot to mention, Wabbajack doesn’t work. Best just to run it on a Windows VM and move the files. Also, the current working version of MO2 doesn’t support Root builder. So just move any files that need to be in the game folder directly to the game folder.

Sorry pal, but I dont see the value in dropping a list of atrocities on a post about an old mans final days. Especially not to prove a point to someone who views the world as so black and white, and who picks fights only to act indignant when they find one.

I dont agree with the vitriolic comments thrown your way, but if you dont see how you asked for them, then you are as bad at self reflection as the Americans you are so quick to judge.

I followed up on your assertions, as I was wholly ignorant to them prior. And while I’m not terribly surprised, as it’s seemingly almost impossible to be the President and not get involved in our country’s sordid history, I am sad to find out Jimmy “sold his peanut farm” Carter’s legacy is tied to so many atrocities. It’s worth knowing about if we want to improve the world.

A bit of friendly advice though, attacking people for their ignorance is simply a terrible way to break their illusions. Unless you were just trying to be a dick for its own sake, your tact will accomplish little more than pushing people further down the path you so eloquently deemed “fucking pathetic”.

And to that extent, don’t be so quick to throw stones from your glass house. There are no countries that are wholly innocent. We need to push for solidarity, not division, if we aim to change that in the future.

True, but being anti genocide, anti colonialism, and anti war often are. Just so happens that these ideas and Palestinian statehood are simpatico at the moment.

I mean, when the only quest available at launch was “FalloutNV has stopped working”, and it only had one solution, I’d say 84 is pretty damn good.

Still, there is something that just feels terrible about Obsidian not getting the bonus considering they made one of the best RPGs of all time in 18 months…
