“Dudes and dudettes” seems more on the level.

Just the concept of a plan?

“Invitation to Love”, the soap opera within the show “Twin Peaks”.

Came here for this!

Deep thoughts from Teflon Don.

For a brief moment during Bush(Cheney) years, there was this screensaver with some of the more outlandish quotes from his press briefings.

He had a way with words, and that way was to go nowhere. It was an art form.

Reminds me of an oldie:

“Roses are red, Violets are blue. Some poems rhyme, This one don’t.”

Sadly, yes.

RSS off of other profile content (such as posts) serves an acceptable function I guess (e.g. cross-posting, blog feed) but sharing saved posts does not meet the cut for some reason.

Feel free to jump on that ticket and articulate a more compelling argument, if it’s still open. More votes might change their stance over time.

Yes, you can wash sneakers in the washer. Delicate, cold, small amount of detergent, laces out (Dan!) and in a laundry bag or the pair entirely in a bag laundry bag.

You can wash with other sneakers but I wouldn’t wash with clothes.

Consider getting a boot/mitt/hat dryer (like the ones at Costco). Very handy for quick drying and no mold, bacteria, fungi stink. I use mine all year round for this and weather related needs.

Note that the fabric on the soles might let go over time. The glue isn’t so strong.

Yes, right beside the “Turbo” button that you’d never turn off (I mean, why would you).

Some of those were cylinder keyboard locks, like the old bike locks that were vulnerable to the Bic pen trick.

I went looking for the webpage that followed to resolve my problem but couldn’t find it.

This page has some tips.

But I think you got some good advice in the other replies. I hope something helps to fix the issue.

I too had this problem recently during my first Linux test drive.

The network set up you’re describing is actually the process for setting up your device as a hotspot, not to connect to the Internet.

As mentioned here elsewhere, it’s a driver issue. You have two choices:

  1. Download drivers to the USB drive and update the WiFi chip.
  2. Easier: connect your phone’s hotspot by Bluetooth connection from the device instead. Then run the update manager to bring in everything that’s missing.

After this you should be able to click the system tray network icon and just pick your WiFi connection/router of choice like you’d normally expect to be there.

 

I have an X-Arcade dual joystick that I’m trying to use with Arcade games via EmulationStation on the Steam Deck.

The joysticks work but I’m having two problems that I’m looking to solve. They should be universal problems, not just about this joystick unit, so I’m hoping someone here can guide me.

  1. How to set controller order within EmulationStation? I use a Steam Controller to navigate the Deck otherwise but have to turn it off when I start an arcade game or the X-Arcade won’t work. I think it’s the controller order I’ve read about but can’t see where to set this.

  2. How to set controller inputs for a specific game in EmulationStation? I see the input settings menu but I believe this overrides all games. I don’t see how I can bring up the old MAME menu for game specific inputs. Do I have to do this via config file in desktop mode instead?

The joystick unit has the PCB upgrade that allows X-input. I can see both joysticks as XBox 360. The deck is updated as of August 1st stable release. EmulationStation with 2.1.1 and all other desktop application updates applied including EmuDeck emulators and flatpaks. Based on some other issue and advice, I have previously pointed EmulationStation to a different and newer MAME emulator vs the one that came with the EmuDeck install.
