It’s the answer.

Discord has forums built in. I know everyone hates it when I mention it, but there is continuity on Discord and has been for several years now.

That’s because it’s not exactly a great point. Look, we’re all glad they caught up to 1980’s bbs tech, but it’s behind a login screen. YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO ACCESS IT.

Discord had always been a square peg beaten with a hammer to fit in a round hole. Eventually gaining basic features for the things it was never meant to be used for. Forcing people to sell themselves out just to read some documentation on an open source project.

Pornhub.com has nothing to do with Jesus.com

This thread is about whether or not Walz was aware of the lyrics of a Neil Young song. Being a fan of The Grateful Dead added to the discussion.

Walz seems like a respectable person. We will see how that plays out. Charles Manson and Mark Chapman were obsessed with Beatles, but I don’t associate them to everyone else who enjoys their music. So I’m not really clear on the point being made here.

He does.

FYI

I don’t think testing a 45 GB game is feasible off of a live distro

Since AMD GFX works out of the box and steam is preinstalled in some live distro’s… simply mounting the hard drive with the game and then adding it to steam will work. Allows you to add the game ( steamlibrary) without having to download. Just a thought.

I’ll end it here.

If you are curious I’d check out the following link and see what version of mesa you are running vs the latest. Maybe you can find more info or other experiences from users on that specific version.

https://linuxcapable.com/how-to-upgrade-mesa-drivers-on-ubuntu-linux/

If you want to explore a newer kernel: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2023/08/install-latest-kernel-new-repository/amp/

Finally, I’m curious if you boot using USB into a live distro like Nobara, if you can manage to test the game. Or even actually install Nobara to a spare USB drive drive and test the game.

Maybe someone else can chime in, but that’s about all I can think of. If you want to find a root cause, you have to run through and find what’s not the issue.

I’m not so sure it is either, but since you’re on kubuntu you don’t easily have access to newer mesa/kernel to test software.

Troubleshooting is not about finding the issue right away, it’s about eliminating by going through all of it and trying it to narrow it down.

Have you tried a distro with a bit more recent packages? If it also crashes then we know it’s more likely something with your hardware.

vram

No. It only tests system RAM.

USB

Yes. https://memtest.org

Have you ever tested your RAM? Like a proper memtest overnight?

If I ever suspect hardware, I also stress test the cpu with prime95.

This is just a guess, but I imagine kubuntu probably has a slightly dated kernel / mesa versions. My understanding is that As much as we wouldn’t like it to be the case, there’s still issues with AMD. It’s not totally perfect and Improvements and fixes are being added to the kernel and mesa packages all the time.

Maybe someone on AMD can confirm?

I own the game and did not experience a crash when playing through it on my nvidia system last year.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Proton-FAQ

Add this as a Steam launch option for the game:`PROTON_LOG=1 %command%`

How?

1. Right-click on the game title under the Library in Steam and select Properties.
2. Under the General tab click the Set launch options... button.
3. Enter the above code in.

Logs will be saved to $HOME/steam-$STEAM\_APP\_ID.log, overwriting any previous log with that name.

If it’s happening on your desktop but not the steamdeck, my first assumption would be an issue with your desktop software/hardware.

Might want to check OS logs at the same time of the crash as well.

I don’t see anyone else mention crashing: https://www.protondb.com/app/201810?device=pc

The act of what is being done is a remix.

It’s like comparing Copying vs Plagiarism. There may be a term that adds more context on the how or why the copying is happening. But the act is still copying.

Copying vs. Plagiarism

• What’s being done: Reproducing someone else’s work (copying).
• Why it’s different: Plagiarism involves passing off someone else’s work as one’s own, typically without permission or acknowledgment.
• Term: Plagiarism

We may have a new term for the why it’s being done, but what was done is still a remix.

I have no idea what you’re on about. The intention of making the song doesn’t matter. So the artist wants more money by releasing remixes of their popular songs. Whether it’s for more money, extra tracks for the fans or bringing in friends or other artists to collaborate. What they are doing is releasing a remix.

I feel like you’re too hung up on the “why” and ignoring the “what”. Just because someone recently noticed it was happening, doesn’t make it new or something different.

If you take tracks from a song and add/remove/re-arrange it into a new release. It’s a remix.

Remix - To recombine (audio tracks or channels from a recording) to produce a new or modified audio recording.

E: I’ll meet you half way. If someone coins a term for releasing remixes solely for profit, then we can call it that. But it’s still a remix.
