Black Mesa (game) question
Guys, recently I’ve seen some reviews on Steam about this game crashing on everyone’s systems. Has anyone experienced it on modern hardware and can comment about it crashing?

What’s the best way (but still adequate for integrating in daily life) to split 4mg of E pills?
Now I’m on 2mg every 12 hours but I’ve heard it’s not good and three times would bee advisable.
I’m very skinny. 166cm and 47kg. I look disastrous while wearing pants or shorts and I’m forced to wear them.
I broke up with my ex and I’m in deep stress. Before all the stress I managed to be 55kg and it was fresh air for me. I looked like almost healthy person. Now I lost 8kg and it’s awful. I’m also forced to wear pants (because I moved to mom) and even though she’s okay with me being trans she has this issue about me wearing skirts - only thing I objectively look good as a human being.
Only way not to be disgusted is to wear a baggy shirt which will cover me down to my knees but this is also very dysphoric…
It’s almost summer. I look at girls with their breasts out and beautiful pants or skirts and I’m so jealous. I know I can fix this by gaining weight because I saw myself with sufficient weight - I have nice breasts and back but I can’t eat. I’m so stressed out over breakup with my ex and things in life, even seeing myself this thin that I’m digging myself deeper in this unhealthy anorexic state.
Please give me suggestions how to pull myself together and start eating.
I’ve only played corpo and nomad. I really love both but at the end of the day you get:
Corpo: free pass in arasaka storage; nice and adequate dialogue options throughout game
Nomad: nice car, Jackie’s modernized bike; idiotic and out of nowhere “yeah I’m nomad too” phrases which don’t get attention from characters.
What do you get as street kid apart from being able to report Stouts snitch?
I’m not very consistent with pills because of stress I have in my life recently.
I take 4mg E and 100 Spiro (2mg and 50mg every 12 hours) but almost always it’s 16 hours, 20 hours difference and not 12. I might take one pill but the next would be in 20 hours instead of 12. The following one would be in 6 hours etc. I still take my dosage in 24 hours span but consistency is nonexistent.
How bad is it?
Does this look like Steam server issue, pc suddenly sending or downloading some data (updates or telemetry) or my ISP or router doing something?
It’s only me on the internet. Connection is via lan cable. If I start using internet (enter pages or anything) drop would be more gradual and wave-like. I recognize pattern. But what is this? Maybe steam changing mirrors or something.
Nothing annoying just wanted to know what could be it.
P.S. also my download server is CAUCASUS. From what I know there is no server in Caucasus region. It’s some bridge connections and not a big actual server. It also recommended me to download from Frankfurt region. It’s been stable.
I live in Georgia, Europe. My country is not supported. On PlayStation I just had US account and my friend bought gift cards for me from Amazon.
I want to buy Xbox. Can I do the same there? Maybe I can my PayPal account connected? There I always have some money.
Hello. I was browsing settings and found this switch to local account thing. Switched and voila. Is this something they added recently or it was there always?
Also do you recommend toggling it? What are the pros of using system with local account? Am I spyed out less?
Which one does what? Namings are pretty similar. What’s the difference enabling high performance on left and enabling it in setting on right?
In a history book I read once “after the fall of Constantinople Byzantine empire continued life in Georgian kingdom…
Kinda deep for my teen self.
Thinking about it I still imagine how the world would be if Romans were still around. You see, Georgia had complicated relationships with Byzantium but with Armenia, Byzantium and Trapizon we had this Christian family around. Once Constantinople fell my country went downhill. No major rise after that. Only thing could be first republic in 1922 or so or Transcaucasian Commisariat.
What’s your experience? I don’t really remember why I switched to CachyOS from Fedora 43. Can anyone say why Fedora 44 was better for him personally and what CachyOS lacked compared to Fedora?
CachyOS wiki suggests 20000MB for root and 4096 for Limine. Isn’t that too low? System will start storing snapshots and apps…
I live in Eastern Europe and somehow it’s not quite comfy for me now visiting another country for a concert even though a concert of a caliber as Voyage.
I’ve got two questions about it:
When performing Don’t shut me down is Frida on stage too? Can you describe how the performance looks? Does she come out when first chorus starts to help Agnetha? Her voice is there on choruses in album.
Are songs performed in Voyage the standard tracks from albums that we already heard or do they use demo recordings for some of them or alternate, even live versions from tours?
For me it’s surprisingly Don’t shut me down. Can’t describe how much I like this song. Girls did amazing job on it. Agnetha is amazing in storytelling and Frida just rocks the choruses here.
Basically what’s in video. Please read the following before jumping to conclusions:
It will close this way just fine if Steam window is already opened and present on screen. Perfectly fine.
This issue only exists when Steam window is not on screen and was minimized.
I did this step in KDE PARTITION MANAGER.
Then I also I did this step: UUID=(paste your UUID here) /mnt/SSD2 ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2
Then Gemini and ChatGPT tell me I need to enter SUDO CHOWN $USER:$USER /MNT/SSD2.
I haven’t entered this last code before and everything worked well as I remember. Did you do it? Do I need that CHOWN?
I decided to have my OS on older SATA SSD drive which is old, dramless but really performs the same as my expensive NVME in OS usage.
Now I want my nvme drive to be used for Steam and Heroic library. What filesystem should it have?
I live in apartment building. We have stock ISP router installed right on top of the door when entering house. It’s stock router with 2.4ghz but works almost perfect in living room and even in my room which is two concrete walls away from it. Daily browsing is okay but when it comes to downloading games via Steam it needs special magic to do so like nighttime, nobody moving around the house (signal goes wavy otherwise), no other device being connected to WiFi etc. Even moving around my room can interrupt signal and it goes in waves (up and down diagram).
I tried 5ghz router but it didn’t work because of walls. Stability and signal were worse than on stock router with 2.4ghz.
I’m planning on installing a cable that just goes the ugly way to my room and connects to pc directly. Will I finally get stable connection? Can it be interrupted if for example my sister decides to watch a video on YouTube in her smartphone via WiFi while I download a game?
I have very good NVMe and more modest SATA SSD. I’m a bit afraid of me going distrohopping or another super distro emerging (or Stramos becoming adequate and supported desktop OS) so what if I keep my OS on that SATA SSD and Steam and Heroic libraries on NVME drive?
Yes, this SATA ssd is dramless and nothing special but I’ve encountered zero downgrade in general OS usage between it and my expensive NVMe which is almost 2 percent used with my constant back and forth disteohopping.
Also if no benefit then maybe any downsides of doing it this way? I’m so much picky but even launch time has been the same as on NVMe drive. I’d like to have my games safely stored where I want them.
In a span of months recently I had series of posts here about being clocked by my ex bfs mother and them making me leave in cold winter after being adored by them before being clocked.
Then good people from here helped me and I stood on my feet again. Went back to work etc. Also managed to get back to my mom’s house. On terms of dressing as a boy and other embarrassing things. Two months I did it and I’d continue in pursue of safety and warm bed I had there. It was tough. Emotionally. Don’t know if you understand this but even clothes wise… I’m underweight (because stress won’t give me room to eat and relax). Pants look awful on me even though I love pants and seeing girls rocking them makes me jealous. I had workaround - wore knee long hoodies over them to cover skinny body. So I wear skirts. They do make me look objectively better. But I coped with it.
We lived with my mom and sister relatively okay for two months and suddenly my mom - a teacher, one time divorced, one time widow, mother of two children decided she’d defecate on our family once again and started dating someone.
It’s very much okay for me personally and I know in modern society it’s an okay thing to do. Me and my sister would have zero issues with it if we were not living in a conservative society. In my culture it’s a big no. Dating after divorce? Yes, it’s okay. Dating after divorce and being a widow and mother of two? No. But it’s the society. I don’t perceive myself as part of the society I’m living in. I would personally be okay with our mom doing whatever she wants. It’s just that I know her…
She’s an absolute idiot. Married my father when she was 20. Made me watch absolute chaos along my development up to five years. I would watch her fighting with my father on the floor and beat each other while I was sitting on my grandmothers lap. Made me witness divorce and running to her parents house where I grew up technically. I have mark under my lip from my grandmothers nail from that night.
Then she (a daughter of hardworking and highly cultural and intelligent family, girl from the capital) made me witness her running to the freaking village to marry a drunk man. Made me watch them being poor, asking my grandma money, him dying of being drunk on loop. He literally died of alcoholism.
She made us live with her parents then. In already crowded house she added three of us and I lived 20 years of my life in poverty without a room or a place to change clothes without someone looking at me. Same for my sister.
A businessman bought our land and we finally moved out in an apartment. Me, mom and sister. Then there was situation with my bf and mom and we are back to the story.

She started dating some asshole. She got constantly violent towards us. Aggressive. Me and my sister started having emotional issues. She never ever worked in her life and lived as a millionaire with my mom funding her. Even she decided to go to work and started working on moving out.
Our issue is that we are modern girls and it’s okay for anyone to date whoever they want. But this situation… we’ve seen this movie before. We’ve seen her relationships. We’ve seen consequences. We know how it ends. She’ll gift our house to that man, they’ll beat us, our peace would be disturbed, she’ll break up with him causing more mental issues with all of us. She’ll make us suffer with the things she did for years to us. Frankly, I’d be kinda silent about this but seeing how much my sister struggles is what makes me feel bad. Her nerves are fucked up and she struggles. Our home has become a silly house with everyone cursing, telling how they’ll beat each other.
Up to this moment we didn’t care much. Our home was clean of stranger men and we lived peacefully even though our mom became violent towards us and being in home was like staying with a gorilla in a zoo cage. She would tell us she’ll beat us. Also she said she’ll break my computer. We didn’t care up to the moment when yesterday when leaving house to go to my exes house for things to take back I saw her staying with this fuckass in a corridor and being weirded out seeing me. Taxi was awaiting but I returned, asked her where my big bag was for carrying computer. Put my pc in it and start leaving. She begged me to stay. She said she’ll connect pc back to power with me. I said I’m not a hypocrite, as a trans person (being transphobed out heavily while living with her and forced to be a boy appearance wise but still) I don’t and can’t have issues with her doing whatever freedom she wants and she’s free to do whatever she wants but I personally don’t want to participate. She started covering herself with my sister saying: think about your sister, don’t let her see your empty room when she’s back. That just made me freak out. Her reason for being such a transphobe with me was “think about your sister, it’s not about me, it’s your sister, you embarrass her”. Well, my sister adores me and I’m her best friend. We share clothes and have deep conversations nightly. It’s all my mom, all about her.

I’m here, in my exes house. It would be a lie to say he hates me. No. His mom does and she forced him to break up with me even though he says it’s his decision. He lives alone so he’s okay with me staying a bit. But hey, he might return to his country anytime or his mom visit him and forcing me out, while calling him gay for being around me.
I need a safe place. As a teacher I need to work. I need my books, my papers. I need to sleep safely.
Only because my mom was begging me to get back yesterday I planned today to do the following: dress up in my favorite skirt, make my skinny breasts pop out from my blouse and do my best make up while visiting her and explaining who is who and who’s embarrassing my sister exactly. Also I see this as perfect opportunity to try to gain my confidence and situation to be able to dress however I want in our house. If I get any oppression I swear I’m calling my uncle, grandpa, who, being conservative assholes, will just freak out knowing whole situation with our family and making her and possibly my life miserable.
I need your opinions before I act stupid.
