Pretty boring, though. "Gee I wonder how this fight is gonna end?" "Oh no! Saitama's in troub- oh, who am I kidding? He's invincible."

Personally i think the usual "Get beaten then power up" is just as boring

Rooted my s6+ didn't even have to unlock bootloader so device didn't get reset. Win.

True, but it also sometimes involves things like character growth and tension, so I can feel something while I'm watching it, and don't care as much that I know what will probably happen.

it is supposed to be a comedy series about what other heroes do until he shows up...

[DigitalHermit]

Why do I keep on stumbling onto some half-decent "MC gets thrown into another world with RPG mechanics" manga??

I don't exactly hate it but the pattern gets tiring once you've been through 3-4 titles...

So, apparently the game that made me want the Wii U, Devil's Third has a limited amount of physical copies.  I pre-ordered and got one of the last ones Amazon had.  So, in the past two days the game has risen to at least double its 60 buck sticker price at a total of 120-130 bucks.  According to retailers, game journalists, and Nintendo, it's one of the most limited physical copy games released in the states.  Gamestop alone only was given 420 copies, and were given the most out of any retailer.  So, should I keep this sealed and just by a digital copy to play?

I suggest doing that... if you're planning on selling your copy to a museum later on...

[DigitalHermit]

Apparently, Nintendo only printed a few copies to see how it would do.  So, if the game doesn't do well on the Wii U then they won't print more copies here.  So, I'll wait and see what happens though keep it sealed.

Will you still be buying your digital copy? (or are you entitled to a digital copy since you already have a physical copy???)

I had honestly forgotten the spam was that bad, I even found my original breaking point where it was literally 4 people liking my post on anime and everyone talking around it just sharing images.

my breaking point with this thread was when I was the only one really running the club and I was trying to police the thread to keep it from getting shut down and someone made a comment that I shouldn't care about the club anymore then anyone else so at that point I basically said fuck it let it burn and stopped caring or making threads for some time after that.

Well, it's coming out digitally on steam too as that was announced after I got the Wii U.  But, either way I have to pay for the digital version.  The guy who created dead or alive, and brought ninja gaiden to the 3D world, Itagaki formerly of Tecmo, made Devil's Third.  Originally, it was for 360, ps3, and pc.  However, THQ was the publisher.   So, Nintendo bought him off then later pulled away partially after seeing who he was.  So, they have a deal with valve for publishing it.  Critics give it a low rating because it isn't Halo or COD like, though.  Apparently actual ninja gaiden fans rate it as high as NG Black and Ninja Gaiden 2[last one he worked on].  It mixes elements of ninja gaiden black and 2 with gears of war.

wut?

Up to you entirely though... but if the physical copy is that much of a treasure, then all the more to keep it mint imo...

Wait for it on a steam sale maybe?

[Fred Castellum]

True, I like that as well, and I've heard that the novel it's based on is well-regarded, but I'm just not usually a fan of stuff that's so pretentious.

Pretty boring, though. "Gee I wonder how this fight is gonna end?" "Oh no! Saitama's in troub- oh, who am I kidding? He's invincible."

I think it's the whole point of the show though. The stupid humor, because no one can kill him lol.

[BashZeStampeedo]

Yeah, but it rarely doesn't involve him to the extent that he overpowers the show anyway (pun definitely intended).

 

I think it's the whole point of the show though. The stupid humor, because no one can kill him lol.

Yeah. If only it could make that stuff funnier To be fair it might be getting funnier, but so slowly that it will take a couple more seasons.

Lest anyone mistake my negativity for complete dislike, the show is growing on me. It's just a one-trick pony so far, with some hints of other tricks poking in from the sidelines.

I would just open it and play it. Otherwise you are being just as bad as all the nintendo scalpers. Like seriously you can never get anything limited from nintendo because scalpers preorder it all then jack up the price. Which is what I suspect is happening with this game as well.

[cesrai]

The fact that it's open source means that even if it is crap on release anyone can improve it. TressFX isn't open yet. When GPUopen is released they will also be releasing the new version of TressFX with it. I don't disagree that we should wait and see but it is far better then the scumbaggy tactics that nVidia uses.

How isn't TressFX open ? the source is included with the samples as far as I know, but I will make sure once I get my PC back.

And scum baggy tactics ? what do you mean ?

I'm pretty sure that this will just effect the linux side yes. But it means that this should help to significantly improve there drivers. The open source driver gets updated frequently but still lacks in performance compared to the proprietary one. But the proprietary one has terrible support for most things. This should alleviate that issue.

Even with the proprietary the performance on Linux still isn't as good as windows it may change with Vulcan and this may help it even more but we have to wait.

I know you guys don't necessarily support or use Linux but any release of something major like this being open source is going to be big even on windoze. I am personally super excited about it.

I do use Linux sometimes but I don't see any advantages that it has over for windows for my use that's why I use windows.

And "windoze" this made my day.

[Vitalius]

sounds like your not getting anywhere

Well, I've certainly learned quite a bit.

And I've made progress. I can access the thing at least now that I know how to chroot.

I'm wondering if there's a Linux specific "look at a drive on the byte level" type thing like Acronis.

Here's what I'm thinking:

The GPT only takes up the first and last few sectors of a drive. If I can get Linux to view the drive in that way, and not have it use the GPT, then I can probably still use the drive in the zpool. A file or two might be corrupt. Oh well.

So that's my next research step.

I swear. My Tech Tree has a shit load more nodes than anyone else's when it comes to getting certain abilities (such as Dual Boot). Or maybe I'm just to where I **have** to get every node on the current level before moving on to the next one. I don't skip optional nodes.

>insert further Civ V/RPG skill tree type analogy<

I'm also thinking that if I can do that, and I already have the current system basically available to me (via chroot after mounting), that I can somehow copy/paste (as I said) the entire system over and it just work.

My only qualm with that is my current system is running on kernel 4.2 while the old backed up system was on 4.1.

I chrooted and ran apt-get update && apt-get upgrade. It upgraded to 4.2 kernel. I'm not sure if that's ok or not. And I'm not sure if swapping each mount (i.e. /dev, /sys, /proc, /run, /bin, etc.) would work going from kernel 4.1 to 4.2. Probably not.

I don't think the system will just update all the things it needs to if it's not booted as the host OS and is just chrooted into.

I'm going to have to ask that on the Debian Forums to see what's up and if I can do that.

I do know there are people who basically roll with multiple different Linux systems on the same base OS (i.e. they swap out one /bin with the other /bin and bam: different version of Linux) but I imagine that's high maintenance if something breaks.

I don't care to do that. I just want to take my old and put it in my new. Which, again, I just imagine is "rm -rf /bin/* && mount /mnt/bin /bin" or something like that.

I have a feeling it won't work. But I hope it will.

You might go "why do you want to do that...?". Simple. I customized my system a bit before I backed it up. I want those customizations back. It's that simple. I imagine some of them are based solely on having /home, but I know some are based on the system itself.

i.e. AMD Proprietary driver working; KDE customized to my preference and looking boss; ZFS on Linux rolling with the PCI-E SSD; etc.

Basically everything I've complained about here before when first getting into Debian 8.2. I'd rather not re-learn it all.

Anyone else watch Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wi Shitai ga Umatteiru? Nothing amazing imo but a pretty good anime(it's a detective anime btw)

AFAIK tressFX is still closed source. Anyone can use it like gameworks but also like gameworks you can't see the source.

They purposefully cripple there older generation cards with newer drives, cause there cards to shutdown if they are detected as running in a VM, among other things. Also the performance in Linux is actually better when the game developers actually put effort into making their game run on Linux. Look at the second witcher game for example. This is totally unrelated to the gpu drivers.

I was talking about their proprietary drivers not working with loads of different applications and things in Linux.

I'm a collector, not a reseller/scalper. I didn't buy the physical edition because of the limitation, but because my 2nd favorite developer, Itagaki, made it. If I bought a digital copy too of the game that would help him. I'm not supporting the price jacking either. It just randomly caught my attention that amazon had no more left in stock, so I went on random internet snooping to see why and that's what came up. I'm actually more annoyed that it happened because I want a sequel for the game. I just don't want to hurt the value of a precious Itagaki creation for me to have as a fan.

Ah OK apologies then.

I assumed that you wanted to keep it sealed because now that its selling for more you could keep it sealed until it's more valuable and then sell it.

I like to collect as well but that doesn't stop me from opening my collectors edition stuff. I bought it because I wanted it not to resell it. So it makes absolutely no difference to me if it's dropped in value cause I opened it.

I don`t know if this is posted earlier, but even if it is still deserves one more time. :3

I am in my original Debian install now. Booting to KDE fine (finally). 

All I had to do to get that to happen was comment out the attempt to mount the RAID 0 of the PCI-E SSD as /home in /etc/fstab. 

I've almost forsaken my old /home folder. I've done enough to the drives that I seriously doubt it will still be usable. 

I realized only a few minutes ago that I never used ZFS on that array. I used mdadm. fml

I should document what I've done more. Oh well. Time to see if I can salvage the "array" with mdadm. Now... how do i use this again...?

In other news, One Plus X is now $250 and freely buyable. I think it's been invite only like the One & the Two were/are? Is it the budget version? Haven't kept up with that at all. One Plus One's are out of stock. I wonder if they are done selling those.
