While I don’t have that many, I do already have multiple email addresses that I actively use. I also have them setup as a recovery emails for each other, so that way, if a hacker wants to take over one of my emails, they’d have to hack all of them.

That’s the reason I don’t open random emails and I never answer the phone unless I’m expecting a call/text from a specific number. I’m too paranoid about getting scammed/hacked. I’d be using 2FA if it wasn’t for the fact that I’d have concerns about potentially loosing access to my accounts because the trusted device stops working or something.
I do already use different passwords for every account that I have and I changed my Gmail password recently. Is there anything else I should be worried about?
To some extent. For audio, I don’t really have to much experience with expensive headphones/earbuds but I do notice a difference. I still usually go with cheaper headphones though because the difference in audio quality and durability aren’t really enough to justify the price difference.
For visuals in games, I do prefer to have the best experience but what settings I use depends on the game. There are some settings that are universal to me, like for example, if anti-aliasing is available, I always have it set to 2x (or 1.5x if the game has it) because every option for anti-aliasing in every game I’ve tried looks exactly the same to me, so going higher is just a waste of system resources. For similar reasons, while both of my monitors support higher resolutions, I still prefer to use 720/768p.
I think the only time I really don’t care about visual quality, is just when I’m watching videos online.
Yeah that’s it. Also, I think I know why I couldn’t find anything about it, it’s because it’s part of a pack of games and not a stand-alone game. It’s also weird that I don’t remember any of the other games from that collection.
It might not be the first but my oldest memory of playing a game was a very old pc game that I can’t remember much about and I’ve never been able to actually find anything about it anywhere. All I remember is that it was a game that had colored rats on conveyor belts and you had to sort them. I’m pretty sure it had a top down perspective as the conveyor belts would loop back to where the rats came from.
Yes but the problem for me was more complicated. Mesa is installed by default in Linux Mint and Vulkan should have worked out of the box but for some reason it defaulted to the wrong Kernel driver for the GPU. I didn’t know this before posting and, as I stated in other replies, every search result on every search engine told me the wrong information.
I don’t know if I need to do that because Vulkan seems to be working now but is that correct? My sources.list file is empty and it states the wrong version of Linux mint. Should I actually edit “/etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list”, seeing that that has the actual list of repositories?
Yeah it seems like it’s working now.
Ok, it seems to have worked as the game I was using for testing seems to be working fine.
Although, I keep getting the error message (WARNING: radv is not a conformant Vulkan implementation, testing use only.)
, is that to be expected?
Ok, do I need to restart my computer now?
For some reason, I can’t get Lemmy’s “code” fuction to work properly in this reply but both commands give the same information:

Did I do it correctly? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1"
After saving, is there anything else I have to do it get it to work?
This is what I get when I try to run that set of commands:

Because Vulkan has never worked out of the box for me in either Ubuntu nor Linux Mint and every single search result on every single search engine states that Ubuntu and it’s derivatives need that PPA for Vulkan to work. I would have tried other solutions if there was even a single mention of another way to get Vulkan working.
My computer has an AMD Radeon R2 Graphics. It seems like both the radeon and the amdgpu modules are installed but the kernel driver in use is radeon. I’d show the output of “vulkaninfo” but it doesn’t seem to show the full thing, is there a way I can get it to show the full output?
The GPU is an AMD Radeon R2 Graphics. It was a bit hard for me to find and I have no idea if it’s accurate but it should support at least Vulkan 1.2.170.
Ok, what is my solution then? Right now, the only thing I know is that when ever I try to run anything in Linux that requires Vulkan, it defaults to Lavapipe instead of using my GPU and if I try to disable Lavapipe, it acts like Vulkan isn’t installed.
I would but I’m actually using Linux Mint because the Xfce edition has low ram usage. My computer’s ram is very slow and it’s only 4GB.
You could use them as a memory card for ps1 games.
