No lie, a few days ago, one of my coworkers, 22, said she thought George W Bush was the first president when some of us were taking about him.

You’re right; I had to go into the store to hit Update

I opened up balatro on mobile. How do you change the card faces?

Edit: found it in options>customize deck. I can only change Spades>Witcher, hearts>Amongus, clubs>Vampire Survivors, diamonds>Dave the Diver. How do I see the new options?

What is a 10ft gaming pc? Is it that tall or long or something? @.@

It’s the same experience, imo. On mobile, you can drag and drop the cards into a buy/sell/use section; on the steam deck, there are Xbox control indicators to buy/sell/use/select. I haven’t noticed any other differences. Google play keeps a save file in the cloud, like steam.

Edit: my bad, on Mobile, seeing the tags at the bottom of the Select Blind window is a PAIN because, to see its description, you have to press and holto read it, then slide your finger away to be sure you don’t select it. The tag icon is small. If you release your finger while over the tag icon, the tag is selected.
A Tag is a bonus you can get if you choose to skip a Blind (which is a term for one round of playing your cards). It’s usually more profitable to play the Blind than pick the tag.

What’s native call recording? Like call recording with the default phone app?

I use ACR Phone by “NLL APPS” in the play store. They have you download their app store to download their ACR Helper app to run in the background, which allows the recording. But the quality of the other end’s sound is based on your in-call volume. So after the call starts, I have to ensure the volume is turned all the way up. It doesn’t have to be on speaker.

I haven’t needed to root, or else I’d have trouble getting on certain mobile games that check my phone for root.

IS THIS Love Advice From the Great Duke of Hell??

(it’s a webcomic, I loved the story)

Onion worthy

Second this, just get some thumbstick covers. I have the 8bitdo pro, and I’m getting tired of the joysticks peeling off onto the rest of the controller after a game.

I haven’t had drift on them yet, but if/when I need to replace Old Reliable, I’m looking for hall effect joysticks.

Edit: damn, just found out the pro2 has hall effect joysticks

Which one(s) have you got? Do you like them?

PROFESSOR HELPER HERE! READY TO HELP!

I can see future archeologists (god forbid, Ai archeologists) digging up old posts like this and going, “tf, this was upvoted? Interjecting with too much tangential information? The tone came off rude though?” and not get the reference if they weren’t versed in linux community culture already

Yes to all. Just want to know what I can use the side crank for?

Samesies. I had a huge nexus 6p back in the day, and I miss scrolling by swiping the rear fingerprint sensor.

TLDR, scroll down to the script. Make a .sh file, allow it to run as a program, set it as your default program to open whatever filetype

Navigate to the appropriate/your favorite folder to store portable applications. Make the below script as a new file called WhateverYouWant.sh
Fellow newbies, the .sh is important.
Then set this .sh file’s permissions to allow executing this file as a Program; may differ by distro.

#!/bin/bash

# Script to set a windows application (that runs through WINE) as the default to open PDF files:

# PURPOSE: To convert Linux-style filename to Windows-style
# to pass as an argument to wine when starting PDF XChange Viewer
Filename="z:"${1//\//\\}

# Assuming you use the default installation folder for PDF
# XChange Viewer in Wine
App='eval wine "C:\Program Files\Filepath\To\Your\PDFXEdit.exe" "'$Filename'"'
$App

You can also check the appropriate windows-formatted filepath with Winetricks, using its built in windows File Explorer, finding your .exe, and copying the path starting from "C:".
[Edit: the default install folder in the script would normally be C:\Program Files, my bad. I downloaded the portable version and shoved it wherever, so my filepath looks like “C:\users\Froggy\Documents\PDFXchange test01\PDFXEdit.exe”]

Mint Cinnamon 21:

• right click your shell script file, Properties > Permissions > check on “Allow executing file as program”.
• Then find a PDF file (or whatever filetype), right click, Open With > ‘Other Application…’ > browse for this .sh file you just made.
• After selecting this .sh file, be sure to select “Set as default” before clicking OK.

I could not tell you for the life of me why this didn’t work with a .desktop file on Mint 21.

I spent the past few hours down the wrong rabbit holes with .desktop and exec=wine ‘filepaths’ and just about died of asphyxiation from absolutely nothing happening. I’ve been wanting to do the same thing too for a while, but decided that right before bedtime was the perfect time to look it up.
[Edit: I figured out spacing in the script. Also moved the Mint specific instructions down the comment for flow clarity]

What’s a PPA, and, if it’s alright to ask, which things did you need to downgrade or remove before upgrading mint?

I’m still on mint cinnamon 21, saving up for a beefier drive to back up to before I would upgrade.
