Looking at the Steam store page of this game doesn’t make me want to play this at all. This is just a gut reaction and I don’t know why I feel like this, and I don’t want to spend the time to try and figure it out. But there must be something wrong with the game or the presentation of it.

Well yeah, the question is, why didn’t you hear of it. It might certainly be that the game or type of game has something to do with it, not only the marketing. It’s kinda hard to know from the outside.

If you’re able to get a job at Meta/Google/etc, you’re also able to get a job at a less shitty company.

Thanks for all the help, really appreciate it. Took it to a repair shop and they replaced the HDD, old one was broken, and installed Windows on it.

Yeah it’s some kind of Lenovo thing. Went to a repair shop they changed the HDD because the old one was apparently dead and installed Windows because they don’t have anything else. I haven’t even used Windows ever.

It seems like this is the BIOS boot menu, not grub. Doesn’t even seem to get to grub.

I used the “wipe everything” option when installing elementary. Thanks for your help, but that was my initial problem, I am traveling and don’t know how to get a bootable medium here, at home I used my other PC to create it :/

You seem very fixed in your opinion that I’m some sort of crybaby. You must remember that there are people that have less knowledge than you have. I installed Linux because of people here suggesting it, with exactly the amount of knowledge you would have if you never bothered with operating systems before, so, none.

There have been problems with it. First I had to fix the system staying black after waking up from sleep. Then the webcam stopped working. Now it doesn’t even boot anymore.

expects someone else to fix your shit for free

Actually, not at all. I looked for paid support options as well, but didn’t find any that looked reputable.

How valuable is the data on your laptop? Did you have it backed up? If so, stop worrying and just take the Windows approach.

Not extremely, however it’s extremely surprising that you would suggest me to use Windows. I’m as unfamiliar with it as Linux.

This may help How to as Smart Questions

Look at my original question. I’m literally trying to find out information like the one you posted in this guide. Thank you for offering that, but there really was no need to be condescending about me together with it, accusing me of being lazy. I tried to figure it out, but I just have no knowledge to even search effectively.

To fix you need to mount it on another booted OS…

Thanks but that was the problem, I’m travelling and don’t know where to get another OS to boot to from.

I have a laptop. Model name Ideapad flex 5 14ALC7. I installed Elementary OS on it. It worked fine for a while. Now it shows the screen when booting and does nothing else. I literally don’t know any more.

what is the boot device

I don’t know what you mean. It’s booting from it’s hard disk I guess? Idk what you want to know

what is the boot loader (and version)

Idk what that is, how do I find it out without being able to boot?

There could be any number of things that stop the boot, including a corrupt boot file.

Yes that is what I’m trying to find out. What thing it is. But I have no idea how. And you’re just telling me that I’m unwilling for some reason.

No one is able to diagnose your problem from the information you have provided.

How am I supposed to know that? If more information is needed, I can provide that. But how am I supposed to know which information is needed?

If you are unwilling to grab a USB stick from a retailer, boot a different OS image and try some diags on your original file system

How do I do that? How would I even know that is something I have to do? Where can I find a shop that sells a USB stick with a different OS image? I guess I can find a USB stick, yes, but how do I get an OS image on it? As I said, I’m travelling and just want to use my PC. This kind of stuff didn’t happen with any other operating system and I just wondered if it’s possible to fix it.

I made this thread https://github.com/orgs/elementary/discussions/555

Yeah I already asked at https://github.com/orgs/elementary/discussions/555

Is really the only punishment you can think of slavery?

But sending people to gulags is not the only way to ensure ideological consistency.

It’s really really good, you’ll like it :)

Of course it’s worth it, there’s no question about it. Depending on the case it might probably be worth it if Steam took 95%.

For me, the question remains if 20% were “enough” for Steam and still make a shitload of money, or even 10%. Of course we can’t know but it seems likely.

Then program some inconsistency into the aimbot. it’ll still win against everyone most of the time, still being a problem.

Manual review is always possible, but this requires a lot of people. And if someone really looks at the best players, they seem like an aimbot all the time.

Client-side scanning forces hackers to run the input through hardware, which increases the level of entry and investment necessary to start cheating. Of course everything is always avoidable, but it’s about reducing the amount of cheaters by detecting the lazy/stupid people. If you just don’t client-side scan at all, there will be a lot lot lot more cheaters. It’s about reducing the volume so much that the amount is not that bad anymore and can better be dealt with manually.

It’s about forcing cheat developers to spend time/money finding new ways to hide, reducing the value of trying to create cheats.

Of course there are privacy and security concerns. But client side detection in a limited manner does make sense.

It does matter though. If you program the aimbot to act as if they were the best human, the aimbot is still going to beat everyone else, same as if it was behaving unrealistically superhuman. But you can’t simply ban the best human from your game.

There’s so many amazing games on Linux that you’ll never have the time to play all of them in your lifetime. So I’m not sure how this is bad news, just means less choice paralysis?

How do you suppose to block an aimbot on the server side?
