Isn’t bcache the one made by the solo dev who was causing all that drama trying to merge a bunch of crap during a freeze last year?

If so that explains quite a bit lmao

Removed by mod

Yea the filename issue should be fine, there’s a risk of corruption with exFAT though as @tal@lemmy.today mentioned, but if you’re just storing steam games or other easily replaceable data, I wouldn’t worry about it to much IMO

It does look like there has been major improvements since the last time I tried this kind of shenanigans. Which admittedly has been many years, these days I just don’t bother with dual booting so I’m free to just use the native FS wherever needed for the OS I’m using OR I have an intermediary like a SAN or it’s on a VM or something

Still though, using a non-native FS in this manner is always more headaches than it’s worth, the no journaling is a corruption risk true, but so is using a non-native FS just in different ways lol

IMO, the use case for this drive is storing re-downloadable data is perfectly fine for exFAT, worst case it corrupts and you have to redownload games from steam

Slack but for video games

Lol when introducing new employees to Slack who haven’t used it before I always say “It’s Discord, but for work” haha

NTFS support on Linux has never been good, iirc it still mounts NTFS as read-only by default. You can remount it as R/W, but it isn’t exactly recommended

If you absolutely want to share the steam library between windows and Linux, id recommend either a second disk formatted as exFAT or a new storage partition on the same disk formatted as exFAT

The key here is exFAT, one of the best options for cross-OS compatibility

Edit: @biofaust@lemmy.world I just saw your reply to someone else in the thread that your steam library is on a separate drive already

So that’s perfect! Just move everything off it temporarily and format it with exFAT filesystem and you should be fine

It only took 3 hours for someone to upload the first Oblivion Remastered gooner mod

lol, I’m from a time when “official mod support” was but a dream

Lol corrected, thanks

I’ve always been of the opinion that if you post something publicly, expect it to be used publicly.

I will absolutely declare though that using privately posted stuff or piracy for profit is absolutely abhorrent. I’ve actually never been a fan of those IPTV providers that profited off of pirated streams either or similar schemes for the same reasons

Me* listen, it’s just one of those things you have to try for yourself, when I got my first foldy phone I didn’t get it specifically for reading (I had other more important use cases in mind) but man when I used it for the first time to read a book it was AMAZING to be able to hold it like a book.

Idk maybe I’m weird, but it’s the little things like that lol

*But I want an eink version, but that might be a ways off :(

:( I just want alien overlords already got damnit

Tesla? Muskrat? Engaged in fraud‽‽

Well I am just shocked, SHOCKED…well, not that shocked

The president of El Salvador is a pure blooded MAGAt, idolizes Trump and will absolutely do anything for him

Well I for one welcome our new AI Dolphin overlords

BOOO

Some people just want to watch the world burn

The actual food and service is probably only maybe a couple hundred to a couple thousand/plate

The rest of the price is the “donation”. The tactic itself is not bad, many charities and fundraisers do the same thing, charge a hundred or 2 (if it’s an event for us pleebs) per person for food and the event and the rest is your donation.

What the donation is for is the problem here

I hope its active enough in the Lemmy-verse to support it, I always considered that kind of comm to almost require a large amount of people to make it useful

Then again, the Lemmy-verse is full of nerds soooo ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

with my hard earned working class salary.

I bet you haven’t even bothered to cut back on your avocado toast
