Hello all

So I have a weird situation, where I accidentally removed an SD card before unmounting it properly and it got corrupted.

I then did a fsck which filled the card with a lot of fsck-files, but got the card working but only in a read-state.

I then used KDE's partitionmanager to repair the partition. Which made me able to write to the card again.

I then deleted all the fsck-files - I don't know if that was smart, but some googling told me it would be safe. Which is was, sort off.

Because now my SD card work. Files stay on the card - I use it in a China retro handheld - and the roms play just fine.

The weird thing is that after deleting all of the fsck-files, the card only show up as having used ~3GB, while all the roms take up ~60GB.

Does anyone know why that is? And possibly how to fix it? It is not a big deal, I just can't find an answer to why it happens or any solution. But any input would be very much appreciated.

Hello fellow tinkers!

So I disassembled my Steam Deck to put in some ExtremeRate buttons. And after assembling it again I had no input on the volume buttons or any output/registered headphones from the jack.

So I bought a replacement audioboard and just switched it. Still no input or output. I checked the connections of the flex cable on the audioboard and it is good. The same for the connection under the heat sink on the motherboard. There is also no visible signs of kinks or tears in the cable.

So what am I missing ? Is there some hidden connection somewhere I can’t see that could have gotten loose ? I would really like to fix it myself if possible and not have it send in for repair.

Hope anyone can help !

Edit: My deck is the revised OLED, so it only has the one flex cable connecting the audioboard and the motherboard.

And for some reason the microphone still work. Which is weird since I thought the mic was connected via the same cable.

Edit II: For anyone following along, it was the ribbon cable that attaches to the audioboard, that had a detached connector. By applying a little bit of force on the ribbon cable the connection is restored, so I used my high tech super powers and fashioned a bit of cork to go in the back plate to apply a little pressure. It works but would not recommend as a permanent solution haha.

Yeah, why is that if you wipe to vigorously and get scratches around your butthole, it doesn't get infected by all the poop ?

My first Fromsoft game I ever completed and only the second souls like I ever played. My emotions are all over the place.

And that is all I have to say on the matter !

Hi Y’all!

So first of this is my fourth attempt at getting into a souls like. Previously have given a go at Elden Ring, Sekiro and Demon Souls, but always bailed or rage quit.

But I just got my hands on Lies of P and recently reached the rabbit siblings and have been dying, replaying and dying, but also progressing.

So I am confused, because I read people say Lies of P is like super punishing and difficult. So does it ramp up at some point or is people just overselling it?

So yeah, as the title says. If you fart do you become lighter because you loose mass or does the loss of buoyancy make you heavier ?

So what is going to happen when Linus gets to old to keep on to maintain the kernel ? I know there is a whole team, but he seems to have some kind of executive role in what’s gets released and not.
