Okay, what’s the biggest and most active gamer community on Matrix?
As far as I know, https://friendlylinuxplayers.org/ . I’m sure it’s not as active as whatever Discord communities you’re in but it’s fairly active and actually friendly.
I use mkinitcpio. You mean regenerating the initramfs? If so, yeah I’ve done that a few times without much success. I suppose reinstalling the bootloader could be an option but I’ve tried using a live ISO from another distro (Ubuntu) and the problem still manifested itself. But it is something to keep in mind, so thanks.
Anyway, so far it seems to be a faulty PCIe slot, so I changed the GPU to another slot and things seem to be working fine. But I’ll wait until tomorrow to do a final edit to my post.
PieFed isn’t letting me edit the OP due to an unexpected error. The errors keep piling up, haha! [EDIT: It’s fixed now!]
Just wanted to thank all of you wonderful people for all the help you’ve given me. I love each and everyone of you (even the ones who skimmed through my post :p). A user on the other thread I created in the Arch Linux community suggested I add the nomedeset parameter, with which I managed to boot into the system. I updated it and installed linux-lts along with linux-lts-headers. Adjusted /boot/loader/entries/arch_linux.conf to switch to the lts kernel by default and rebooted the PC. Unfortunately, didn’t work but I got logs! Here’s the relevant part, I think:

I did a search and it seems like it’s the GPU’s fault due to the ring errors. I think. I remembered I have an old nvidia GPU laying around so I’m going to try to reseat the current GPU and, if that doesn’t work, try the old one. Not sure if I have to uninstall the amd drivers or if it’s ok to have both the amd and nvidia drivers installed. If that doesn’t work, I’m going to go through all the other suggestions y’all gave me to try and pinpoint the problem.
Again, thank you so much!

It worked! I managed to boot into the system. Updated it and installed linux-lts along with linux-lts-headers. Adjusted /boot/loader/entries/arch_linux.conf to switch to the lts kernel by default and rebooted the PC. Unfortunately, didn’t work but I got logs! Here’s the relevant part, I think:

EDIT in case you missed it: So, I changed the GPU to a different PCIe slot and everything’s working fine so far. I’m not celebrating just yet because when this first happened a few months ago, I’d hard reset the PC and everything would work fine. But if I shut it down and let it pass like 12 hours before I’d power it on again, the problem would reappear. So I’m just basically waiting for tomorrow now.
Will do it tomorrow, thanks!
I tried adding the kernel parameter mentioned in that thread but it didn’t work. But thank you anyway!
Regarding your edit: no, I haven’t tried that, but I will keep those suggestions in mind, thanks!
Yeah, it might be the dreaded hardware problem, then.
No, I had to use the latest one. Nope, tried the Ubuntu live ISO but it also didn’t work.
Will try that after doing what Zikeji suggested. Thanks!
I mostly play fighting games nowadays and I think people can learn a lot about mental self-improvement by playing them online. Namely:
Because I always wanted to have my own theme song.
But really, I browsed through my music collection by alphabetical order and it sounded cool. Blue Öyster Cult always delivers, even with the title of their songs.
No phone apps that I know of for Koha. I think it works fine on any mobile browser, though. If you know HTML, CSS, or even JavaScript you can do a ton of cool stuff on your library’s catalogue. As for FOLIO, no idea, but I don’t think any exist.
There is VideLibri but it doesn’t add any functionality you don’t already have when accessing the online catalogue of any library on your browser, so I don’t think it’s worth it. Something like the Web Opac App, which let’s you browse a ton of libraries’ catalogues in one app would be a more interesting solution. Unfortunately, it’s stopped being maintained a while ago and went closed-source, from what I can gather.
Hi! In the library I work, we use Koha, which is probably the most well-known open-source library management system. This comes with the advantage of having a big community and having a lot of answers to questions you’ll probably have, albeit the documentation is kind of all over the place. Just a heads-up, though: it only runs on Linux so, whoever is going to do the implementation must familiarize themselves with it if they haven’t done so already. It’s not a flawless system by any means but as far as open-source goes, it’s the best and most mature.
There are a few demo servers you can try on their website: https://koha-community.org/demo/
The other open-source library management system I know of is FOLIO (their repo) but I haven’t tried it or read much about it. I only know it’s way younger than Koha (created 10 years ago, I think) and that EBSCO is one of its vendors. It may use newer technology but I honestly don’t know. You can also try a demo server if you go to their wiki.
Hope it helped. If you have any questions, let me know :).
I think Brazilians have a hard time understanding European Portuguese mostly due to the closed vowels and how fast we speak. There are also some words that are different like banheiro instead of casa de banho, or ônibus instead of autocarro , or even suco instead of sumo, but I think mostly everyone will understand what you mean, especially in more urban areas like Lisbon and its surrounding area. I reckon Porto and Braga too.
Although I had a hard time understanding what the hell meia meant when you mention it in the middle of giving out your phone number or that jogo da velha is the Brazilian Portuguese equivalent to cardinal or hashtag.
Anyway, I like to think it’s a softer version of an American going to the UK. You’ll probably going to do just fine in more urban areas, and will have a bit more trouble in rural areas. I’m guessing you’re visiting the country. If so, I don’t think it warrants studying European Portuguese.
As for the attitude, yes we can be condescending towards Brazilians, unfortunately. I’m Portuguese so take this with a grain of salt, but it tends to happen more with people from around 40 years old and up and less with younger people, in my experience.
