well I’d read the documentation if websearch wasn’t so shoddy that I could find it in the first place /s

Is this a mod or an update to the initial game?

These are the comments that do me in. Time to repolish the resume and my most practical projects. I can’t believe I’m getting serious about this again, but I do believe in my drive, determination, and earnest passion to be the change I want to see in the software world. I know it’s pointless, and I will almost certainly fail quite miserably, but I also know I have to go down swinging or my soul will rot from the regrets. I just have to fail better–I have to do it despite the pointlessness.

I’m somewhat of an econ moron, what does this mean specifically in a material sense?

Could certainly be argued as a choice ultimately. I didn’t quite finish my BS in CS, I’m entering my 30s with a wife that depends on me not leaving my decent and steady warehouse mgmt job atm. I’ve tried a couple of times–last time I was building a great portfolio maintaining a hobbyist arch distro, but I just never got past the interview stages. My network is too small, and the job market seems to be a dumpster fire with no upturn in sight.

I know these are excuses and ultimately it is a choice that I shouldn’t give up on my dreams the way I am, but I wanted to answer your question as honestly as possible for some reason. As far as impact, it’s basically been a lifelong dream of mine to just make software that helps improve the quality of life of as many sentient beings as I possibly can. I know it’s immature and overly idealist, but I can’t shake it

The honest truth is Valve is much more dedicated to other things than CS2. It’s a sad fact, but they legit don’t see it as anything but a skins cash cow to be pumped when the next quarters status quo must be met.

The wallhacks are so prevalent I’m assuming they plan on making it a blanking feature at this point lol

One last petty comment (I promise I’m just trying to help), I hear bazzite is more equipped for cs players thanks to all the immutable rollback features that help to foolproof certain issues like this. (I don’t personally use, but have seen it getting praise from many spheres/communities)

Are you sure there is absolutely nothing that would interfere with the vac anti-cheat service? No anti-virus, firewall, selinux additions whatsoever? I’m unfamiliar with ubuntu, but it may come with some pre-installed somethings that vac has classified as potential cheating software

Also I know this is extra as heck, but I really would try the ‘verify integrity of game files’ one more time after all the other things you’ve tried as a last resort strictly from that solving my issue more often that you’d think lol

That is certainly a bright side of the matter isn’t it. Maybe keeping the joy alive is more critical than the bread?

I felt this loaf

It’s easy to do when we’re all surrounded constantly by the paradox of money meaning nothing at all, but also the only material thing that dictates the action and activity of everything past and future

Biggest Pill I’ve had to swallow is that no matter much I love programming and will continue my computer hobbies for life. I will never make a profession out of it. I’m slowly coping with the fact that all my work will ultimately influence very nearly nothing at all…

Kubuntu is excellent for the stability imo. Super sane and low-demand defaults make for a reliable/enjoyable experience
I only use gentoo now so I can’t offer suggestions other than maybe alpine for servers

So I know it’s confirmed false, but I wanted to take the opportunity to ask how you good folks stay in the know about critical/time sensitive compromises like this was believed to be?

Roo roo roo!

Really solid points that really resonate with me, but are we sure lemmy is the right platform for this? And if so, would we need a separate homeserver with these goals in mind?

I feel like there is monumental opportunity for something to rise up through the ashes of reddit/stack overflow and the ilk that are gettinng AI churned atm. These are things I’ve been reflecting on for weeks and have not found many answers, but if anyone finds the answers please guide/inform me

why have I been chmod +x so often then?

The headline sounded like a dub, but the comments got me feelin like this just another L

Uhhh, when has it ever allowed that?

What does peertube solve ultimately? How can we be confident in it’s sustainability and roadmap? The idea sounds great but the practicality seems to be missing. (Not knocking it, just curious)

I’m pretty sure you could still find a decent thinkpad from ebay that would surprise you how cheap they are
