Sounds like maybe it's the speaker that's broken?

Nope. Speaker works fine. I've narrowed the problem a bit more. It seems that in Linux the rear audio jack is only producing the right channel. If I plug the speakers into the front then it all works correctly. I still have no idea why its not giving all the channels at the back but at least its a more specific issue.

Fixed my sound issue by forcing line out through the blue jack. Why that worked I don't know. Important part is I know have stereo sound again.

I have picked up numerous issues with the sound driver in Ubuntu 16.04. I am just not in the mood to fix it because it wasn't broken before and someone changed the code or the logic thereof. Sometimes, Open source OS is a pain in the butt...
For example if you launch Discord, on stock 16.04 while playing music, guess what happens... it royally messes up the audio subsystem requiring a reboot at worst.

I have removed Animew's recent thread as in discussion with other forum members it was agreed that it was not appropriate to the forum. Teasing games are fine but they should be conducted where people choose to participate. Insulting or harassing users under the guise of a game will not be accepted.

You know Rakuen if you just always assume the worst in people you’ll end up a very lonely puppy. The game was intended to give people an opportunity to vent in a light hearted manner while giving the winner an opportunity to reconcile using humor… <w< not to mention get free art as a consolation.
But I suppose ruining everyone’s fun is your thing. Owo this would explain why you were on your way to a land slide victory I guess… way to square yourself out of monthly free art ya knob!
The poll turned out some interesting results tho and I saw a lot of names in there I really didn’t expect… <w< least of all being Joseph Stalin… but I suspect cape fox is to blame for that one.
But perhaps worst of all is that I didn’t get a single vote! .>w<. the fuck is wrong with you people!? Do I not troll enough or something!? It’s the most obvious thing ever to name a guy in his own survey, geez. I suppose my trusty nihilistic hyena is still stuck in the karoo or something. He better not have gone into a glycemic coma after gorging himself on nuttella pancakes again!

Welp… since spoily mc spoilsport is likely to kick my ass off ZAfur if I continued the game on some other platform he has no control over, I’ll just make a new game for the most hated furry character in the fandom and host it on my inkbunny account.
Sorry Galahad I guess you can put away your flame proof undies and wait for Lee to complain about censorship now.

hehe, sure you did you light footed scamp! Ow< we all abstained from voting right? the metric fucktone of furs that voted was all the lurkers weren't they...

also i'm pretty sure at some point in his life Galahad had dated a dragon so its fairly certain he owns at least one pair of fire proof undies.

I am SO done with FA! I haven't been able to upload my story for two weeks! Journals work, art works, but for some reason stories don't, and I am so sick of it! If anybody wants to continue reading Ander, you can do so on SoFurry or Deviant Art (if you're not doing that already), because I am DONE. >:[

I have to say I agree... FA is becoming a bit meh... there's a lot of problems with their website/hosting/backend...
I am moving over to DA and other places because the vibe is just not there at FA.. and with all the issues.. its not cool.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have done the impossible. I have harnessed the amazing power of my own laziness!! By not doing anything at all, I have accomplished a full day's work!!

I think I might be a genius... O.O

It's all in the graphs. In 2016 my productivity was way higher, despite working fewer hours than 2017. So now, for 2018, I've gone back to my old schedule. It turns out my hypothesis was correct.

The part I'm working on right now had a few problems. I was able to think of a solution, of course, but because I had to cut back on my hours, I wasn't able to implement them right away. Fast forward to today, and after having the problems percolate in my brain juices for a while, I was able to come up with a waaaay better solution than what I had previously. If I had stuck to my old schedule, I would have ploughed ahead with the original, inferior idea, and then, after realizing my mistake, I probably would have had to rewrite the whole thing, resulting in twice as much work.

But now, through the power of laziness, I have increased my productivity by working less!

Action through inaction! Creation via inertia! Victory by torpidity!!

Truly, sometimes my genius astounds even me.

But am I the programmer, or am I the rubber duck?
Perhaps my brain is the rubber duck to itself?
Or perhaps my work is the programmer and I am the code.
But that would mean...
That would mean my manuscript is writing me... @_@

UwU/ well as a matter of fact i AM proud of being stupid.

tho no amount of drunken whoring could ever make me outdo my neighbor i'm afraid...
asks me to reinstall windows on his laptop, i ask why, since it was running perfectly fine. he tells me "because excel is corrupted" then upon looking into it... he somehow set word as the default program to open .xml files... he wanted me to format the laptop... because... *sigh* i even feel stupid telling this story... i mean seriously, do people just not notice what they are doing when they do it or do they just flail at things randomly when they are using them?

they tend to be bulky and i cant make my own smaller versions so it would have to be a MWP rifle. the power pack would also have to be kinda large.

OwO but as a random stationary emitter the microwave thingy can be used to keep people sterile. <w< the suppression device from HL IS possible, we can cure overpopulation.
