A true friend is seen in times of need...
Again, I recommend you all just try Linux Mint. The official site has the instructions of how to install it.
Give it a shot.
you know that phenomenon where vaccines are so effective that people forget how scary the original disease was? I think Americans are like this about government
Ok, here me out. I think there is some new malware risk, and that Steam may have some security issues, or even suffering an attack. See, I had decided to do some scans, and seen some worring signs. The files where, to my surprise, among the proton files I downloded from Steam. As in, downloded officially.
To be sure it was not a false positive, I looked through VirusTotal to be sure.
And then I found this. The file was scanned by numerous security vendors, and 22 out of the 73 vendors discovered a trojan. And among those vendors, where included Avast, Avira, ClamAV, Google, McAfee and Microsoft. This was bad, so I deleted it, and deleted the proton programs(and many other things from Steam, JUST TO BE SURE).
And I am not the only one who had seen this. I found two recent cases of people talking about similar cases on both GitHub, and on the the Steam Community.
Now, I dont want to accuse Steam and Valve of anything. They are likely victims of this.
But I post this, to spread some awarness, so Valve can fix this issue, if there is any, and not just a bunch of false positives.
So. Today I decided to draw an owl. But some mistakes early on, and me entering in a hurry with the feather details and coloring resulted in....this. Not the worst thing possible, but not as good as I wanted to make it. Still, I can just improve. Maybe tomorrow I will draw more feathers and bird wings, and some other day I will draw another owl.
i love in fantasy when its like “king galamir the mighty golden eagle and his most trusted advisor who would never betray him, gruelworm bloodeye the treacherous”
So. I drew another wolf this day. I did one thing differently through. I tried to draw it at a large size.
Overall, I think it is a significant improvement. But even so, it still has some issues with the paws.
Yeah, today it is clear it is not in me. So here is another amateur drawing. I tried to combine the colors for the sky, but I dont think it turned out well(mostly because I was in a hurry).
the "dire wolves are no longer extinct" stuff is gonna be the most annoyingly persistent science misinformation for the next decade at least
Those wolf pups are no more dire wolves than GloFish are bioluminescent jellyfish. This whole thing is pathetic and sensationalist and betrays both an utter societal ignorance of the basics of genetics and evolution and a disregard for animal life, extinct or extant. Nothing Colossal has done is novel or significant and they should be shut down.
