Q: Trouble running steam games through Playonlinux

I have set everything up correct as far as I can tell and steam launches and runs, but when I try to run a game it will say the game is running in the task manager but there is nothing showing on the screen. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

If you miss the lighthearted sense of adventure, the over-the-top characters and the tough challenge in games - this might be the right game for you.

@OrigamiRobot This probably would be better as a bar graph.

OrigamiRobot

@MechanicalLoon Probably, but bars are boring. Pies are great.

Apparently, someone has 96% pure gold dust for sale, and I should email him back if I'm interested.

@OrigamiRobot Pie charts are also entirely inappropriate in most circumstances, including this one

@fbueckert What would you do gold dust anyway?

fbueckert

@PrivatePansy Presumably sell it at a profit.

Private Pansy

18:29

I heard that traditionally the emperors in China committed suicide by ingesting gold

Ben Brocka

@kalina Huh, kinda surprised at that

OrigamiRobot

@PrivatePansy DON'T TELL ME WHAT KIND OF CHART TO USE

Private Pansy

@OrigamiRobot I won't scold you if you don't misrepresent your data!

Also, I'm your mom. I think.

That went better in my head

OrigamiRobot

@PrivatePansy If you want to scold me for that, talk about how a message could be in multiple categories and simply subtracting each category from the total wont give you the right "other"

Private Pansy

Actually, that works for pie charts since you could simply do shading with stripes or cross-hatches to represent the messages that fit into two categories

OrigamiRobot

18:36

@PrivatePansy It could work, yes.

But I didn't bother to do it the right way.

What does it mean when someone wants to pay for your repairs with cash rather than out of their insurance?

FAE

@Yuki Car accident?

Yuki

I just got into a fender-bender and the person called me and said they wanted to pay with cash rather than going through insurance and whatnot.

@FAE Yeah.

Mechanical Loon

@Yuki It's so that they don't have to report the accident, and their insurance doesn't go up.

FAE

@Yuki Might mean they want to avoid having their premium possibly raised due to an accident.

Mechanical Loon

It's definitely safest for you (if it's their fault) to go through insurance.

Yuki

@MechanicalLoon How would it be safer?

Ben Brocka

18:41

@ElfSlice yeah, been keeping up with that. On the plus side, numerous companies have come out with explicit monetization policies now. But proving it to Youtube is still a big pain so it's not like that makes it all better

@Yuki You're (mostly) guaranteed to get your money.

@Yuki More of a paper trail. They can't just disappear and not pay you.

OrigamiRobot

@BenBrocka Unrelated, did you see the BL2 barcode scanner thinger?

ElfSlice

He keeps saying 'today a lot of that is going away'

or similar stuff

Ben Brocka

@OrigamiRobot yeah, haven't heard it

Yuki

@OrigamiRobot Yeah. The pie chart implied that @spugsley cursed more when it was actually just because @GnomeSlice talks a lot more in general.

FEichinger

ERMERGERD! @OrigamiRobot is now drawing charts about @GnomeSlice's chat content? This is amazing!

OrigamiRobot

@Yuki That's why they're percentages

FEichinger

18:43

@Yuki @spugsley does curse more - relative to the total amount of messages.

Ben Brocka

@ElfSlice Oh, you're not up on the content ID stuff. Um, not sure of a good summary. No one has the full story but this has a lot of bits and pieces: vg247.com/2013/12/13/…

OrigamiRobot

@BenBrocka play.google.com/store/apps/…

Mechanical Loon

@OrigamiRobot Comparing percentages of things that are orders of magnitude different in total content doesn't make sense, though.

Yuki

@FEichinger On a strict by volume basis, @GnomeSlice curses a lot more than @spugsley. More than 3 times as much, in fact.

FAE

> This app is incompatible with all of your devices.

FEichinger

18:45

@Yuki And on a strict by volume basis, @GnomeSlice also talks a lot more than @spugsley.

FAE

I think it's because it's US only. :(

OrigamiRobot

@MechanicalLoon I wasn't planning on comparing them until I had already made one pie chart.

@FEichinger I know, I figured it out.

I watched a video that was supposed to talk about the differences, but it said things like "Terraria is bad because it has no story so it's hard to know what you're supposed to do next. Starbound is great because it has no story which means you can pretend you're doing whatever!"

He's got his twitter in his profile bio
