  • From my experience, CW only works if the post is completely hidden from the feed without the option to view it.

    Blahaj Zone had the option to yeet that shit from the timeline entirely and it worked amazingly until a migration fucked that up leaving it broken for months and my mental health dropped off a cliff because holy fuck did I not realise most of the people I followed posted so much depressing shit that triggered my cptsd. The urge to click the button was too strong.

    Its par for the Fediverse course, really. Good ideas and half-assed implementations.





  • I admit that I am a bit biased. During the 8-10 years I tanked my startup by going all-in on Microsoft Store apps because I absolutely loved my Windows Phones and was convinced that they were the future, especially when Continuum was announced (and it actually worked!).

    The disenchantment started when Microsoft forced developers to rewrite their apps for Windows 10 after already having forced the mobile devs to do it from 7 to 8. The hatred ramped up when they killed support for the Lumia 950XL 6 months after launch. I freaking loved that phone.

    It pissed me off so much that I went to Apple lmao talk about cutting off my nose to spite my face.









  • Oh damn, you’re using the snap version of Steam, this is unfortunately outside of my area of experience :(

    Some key error messages I see are:

    /home/pokko/snap/steam/common/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/steamwebhelper.sh: line 53: /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone: Permission denied
    /home/pokko/snap/steam/common/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/steamwebhelper.sh: line 60: /proc/sys/user/max_user_namespaces: Permission denied
    

    and

    flock /usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation/LiberationSans-Regular.ttf LOCK_SH failed. errno = 13vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices failed, unable to init and enumerate GPUs with Vulkan.
    BInit - Unable to initialize Vulkan!
    

    You’ve got permission errors and a GPU driver issue somewhere, likely related to the permission errors. The flock errors stand out to me also, as they are fonts. Maybe required fonts for the game to run?


  • I don’t have any idea about your hardware issues. They’re likely unrelated if the game has already been played without issue.

    For the steam diagnosing, start with running steam from your terminal, by running steam. You may get lucky and the error is clearly identified in the console.

    If that fails, backup $HOME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/221100 - the 221100 is the app ID of of DayZ on the steam store. After backing it up, delete the original 221100 directory and re-launch the game. This doesn’t delete the game, but rather deletes the Proton prefix for the game.

    If the game launches, copy any save files (if any) you may have in the backed-up 221100 directory over to the new one.

    The above worked for me when I had similar issues when playing Batman: Arkham Asylum.

    To be thorough, have you tried any other games to rule out your hardware being an issue?
