I take my shitposts very seriously.

  • (SOLVED) [Controller] SISR on Linux - how can I prevent a Wine app from picking up inputs from both the real and virtual controllers?

    Jump

  • Mostly I can only describe it as "game no worky". Steam pretends to launch a game, then nothing happens. My hypothesis is that Steam does something to the runtime environment that fucks with some games.

    One other thing that I've noticed is that on Wine/Proton environments launched from Steam, the lettered drives (aside from C:) are mounted as some kind of overlay filesystem. Writing to them (e.g. by an installer) causes data to be written into memory, not to the mass storage where the drive targets are located.

  • When the small intestine has to be temporarily removed during surgery, surgeons use a tool similar to a coat rack to hang it. Afterwards, they just shove it back into the gut and let it wriggle itself back into shape.

  • why not just disable SISR and go along with that?

    Because I want to use all inputs on my controller, and (so far) only Steam Input allows me to do that. Without Steam Input, the SC is comparable to an Xbox controller.

    I've tried most of the methods in the article, to no effect.

  • I'll try it as soon as I get home.

    It makes sense, since Wine uses SDL2 to emulate XInput.

    (edit) I'm cautiously optimistic. I've just tried this on my work PC (without SISR):

     bash
        
SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_IGNORE_DEVICES='0x28de/0x1304' wine control joy.cpl

    ...and XInput doesn't detect the SC. It should still receive inputs from the emulated device since it uses different a different PID/VID.

  • Steam Controller delivery vent

  • Mine was also shipped by GLS (before the entire system fell apart) and it allowed me to change both the delivery date and address.

    Jump

  • To be fair, it was really stupid of Valve not to anticipate a massive interest from both customers and scalpers. The internet collectively went crazy like a hamster on coke when the hardware announcement dropped. They should've had the reservation system and per-account ordering limit in place from the first moment. Not that it would've prevented the unmitigated clusterfuck of logistics companies.

  • Steam Controller delivery vent

    Jump

  • Valve is also the only party that has the size to put pressure on the logistics companies. A couple hundred dissatisfied individual customers hardly amount to a rounding error for the likes of UPS and GLS. Pissing off Valve, especially before the major release of hardware, is not something they can afford to do.

  • Any good indie games on steam? Can be any genre.

    Jump

  • Are there any good indie games on the world's largest video game store? I dunno, are there any leafy trees in the Amazon?

    From what I've been playing: Stardew Valley, Factorio, Vampire Survivors, Derail Valley, A Hat In Time, Project Wingman, Frostpunk 1 and 2, Portal 2 (technically self-published), Signalis. Voices Of The Void will eventually have a Steam release. All of those games work well on Linux.

  • What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ?

    Jump

  • Satisfactory is rainbow sprinkles compared to Factorio's crack cocaine.

  • Destiny 2: Every End is a New Beginning

    Jump

  • Games the size of Destiny just don’t last this long.

    Warframe is still going strong. Much of that is the result of competent developers and managers who don't absolutely suck dog eggs.

  • 82-year-old YouTuber grandma was raided by police and SWATs during her live stream last night where she plays Minecraft to raise money for her grandsons cancer. Authorities brought 20 police cars

    Jump

  • There is an enormous difference between the conduct of police officers between the US and Europe. Again, it mostly comes down to the public's access to firearms, but the quality of training, institutionalized prejudices, and corrective actions (or the absence of those things) are also significant factors.

    The US is not a punching bag. It's receiving fair criticism and experiencing repercussions for decades of failure to improve public safety, and using both legal mechanisms and populist rhetoric to sanctify gun violence and the persecution of vulnerable groups, leading to a deeply divided, damn near tribal society (Us against Them), and the rise of the American Gestapo under the false banner of immigration control. Be patriotic, absolutely. But patriotism without awareness and due criticism is nothing more than zealotry.

  • Plex Announces Massive Price Hike on Lifetime Subscription Plans

    Jump

  • Stakeholders. Journalists. The market. The ignorant public. They're constructing a narrative to shield themselves and minimize the hit to their reputation when they stop offering lifetime license plans. The announcement won't look nearly as damning if it contains a reference to the falling number of new lifetime customers, even if it omits the context of why that number has been falling.

    Jump

  • You know that shooters have the ability to stay quiet, right? A calm atmosphere doesn't mean there isn't someone who is in imminent danger. Back to the thought exercise: you're a hostage, you call 911, police arrive. Then they wait five minutes and fuck off because nobody's firing at them or shouting threats. Do you think that's reasonable? Wouldn't you want them to breach the house and get you out of the situation?

    It's fucked up that this happened in the first place, but "well, the police should have..." is not how you fix it. Misuse of emergency resources needs to be a federal crime, and doing it to harm another person needs to be investigated and penalized as attempted murder with prison sentence for first time offenders, both as punishment and as a deterrent. But I've seen enough court cases to understand that the US justice system has neither the motivation nor the competence to implement or enforce a law like that.

    Jump

  • someone called the swat team on her?

    some anonymous tip

    That's not what happened. Someone called 911 and described a situation that involved a shooter who has already shot someone. The 911 operator then had to relay that to the responders (in this case, LE). The responding officers might have only received an address, that there was a barricaded active shooter, and that there was at least one shooting victim.

    It's not up to the police to debate the veracity of a report. Imagine being in a hostage situation, you manage to call 911, and they respond with "sounds fake, not coming".

    Jump

  • Since guns are handed out in America like chocolate at a Willy Wonka publicity and outreach campaign, every law enforcement agency has to be kitted out to potentially combat a barricaded suspect who can rain a small militia's worth of lead on them and their surroundings. That's why the response team often includes armored vehicles, snipers, and crayon munchers armed to the tits. And because abusing emergency services doesn't cut into the profit of any big corporations, there are no effective means to seek justice against the offenders.

  • Anon tries watching nu-Trek

    Jump

  • She was trying to force Worf to live as a paraplegic. It might be acceptable for a human, but for a klingon, that kind of existence is psychological torture. Worf had the right to choose death. Crusher disregarded Worf's wellbeing and rejected his decision and bodily autonomy because she couldn't reconcile her feelings, and when another option was presented for a full recovery, she tried to intervene because she unilaterally decided that the risk of death was worse.

    Then she had the fucking gall to give that "you scare me, doctor" speech.

    I've seen it half a dozen times and it still boils my fucking blood, and I wish she had suffered some kind of fallout. Such a lack of empathy for her patient makes her unfit for duty as a medical officer in my eyes.

  • Plex Announces Massive Price Hike on Lifetime Subscription Plans

    Jump

  • From a purely profit-oriented perspective, no. They're setting up a pretext to eliminate the lifetime license plan due to a lack of interest. No sane person would pay that kind of lump sum for the service (and the insane ones will bring in triple the revenue), so they'll claim that there is no market for it. After that, they're free to crank up the periodic subscription prices.

    Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by profiteering opportunism.
