Willdrick,

Whats up with Snowshoe Siamese that make them compulsively knead biscuits on soft things like that? Mine does exactly the same and he’s all serious business, if I pet him while he’s doing that he gets miffed af

Willdrick,

It’d be cringe if it locked you to a single launcher. I’ve been running /e/ on my last 2 phones and it’s solid. Also easier to switch iOS users over. FWIW lawnchair 2 works great

Willdrick,

I’d say keep that machine as is, and whenever you build a new one, just put whichever distro you like. If possible I’d roll back to win10 and after support ends, keep that machine VLAN’d off the internet. This way you turn it into a music production appliance without disrupting your workflow

Willdrick,

Same here, tho sometimes it makes a tantrum and I need to verify files so it resets the prefix. Kinda annoying when the mates are ready to dive and I’m here scanning files for 5min to redownload 18kb

Best Graphic card for Linux Gaming (lemmy.wtf)

Are they some graphic card benchmark for linux environment ? From my windows experience, drivers are important, and often underestimate. My linux gaming experience is very bad, lots of my game are unstable, and others use a lot more resources than with windows. However, when I ask people, some of them have no issue at all, even...

Willdrick,

If using a somewhat modern distro, this isn’t an issue anymore (unless you run a really old OpenGL game).

I run my PC in this way with little to no performance degradation: monitors go to my motherboard (r5 2400g CPU with vega11 iGPU) and games use my RX 5700XT without having to do anything at all… Pretty smart handling tbh

Willdrick,

I’m running vanilla Fedora 40. Haven’t installed that, and just checked and it’s not even on fedora’s repos

Willdrick,

Don’t forget about the whole desktop rain effect!

Willdrick,

Sadly unless you buy an old copy (on gog?) and use the WADs on gzdoom, doom is now Bethesda’s and they integrated the account system for all the old doom and quake titles

Recommendations for an authentic mousepad?

Hiya peeps, my mouse mat has served its time, and it is time for a new one. Until now, I’ve had one of these huge ones, that cover half the desk. But I think this time I’m gonna aim for a normal-sized one. I’d also like to avoid cheap Chinese wares or anything low-quality. Anyone got any nice recommendations for mousepads?...

Willdrick,

I’ve used an A2 Olfa cutting mat for a long time (those dark green ones with the grid)

It was really beat up but the underside was pristine. Mice glided a lot. after getting a new mouse I decided to get a traditional cheapo deskmat because I didn’t want to wear the mouse skate pads.

Willdrick, (edited )

By the amount of exploits and privilege escalations he pulls off (and the fact that everything is stuck in 1999) I’m almost positive that the matrix is running on some sort of WindowsNT

Willdrick,

Maybe a bit of a low tech solution, but I have an older RPI 3B running a second instance of PiHole.

Willdrick,

I just checked and at least on LineageOS 21 (android 14) you indeed can add specific apps (and notification categories, eg calls) to bypass do not disturb

Willdrick,

Check out Emudeck.It will be far easier than doing each game by hand

Willdrick,

If you’re on Linux, gnome-web uses the same engine as safari. And it’s a mess

Safari is the new ie6

Edit: also blink (used by anything chromium) is based off WebKit (safari)

Willdrick,

I use scorcher/eruptor/dmr etc as the backup and stalwart+supply pack as primary. Setting the stalwart to the highest rpm is plainly awesome for suppressing bots and shredding chaff.

And now with the new supplies upgrade those 4 boxes on the backpack last me way past the cooldown for a new pack

Willdrick,

Good riddance, spent several years hooked to League. That being said, the fragmentation argument is bullshit, they could ship a read-only container in a flatpak and it’d run everywhere.

Kernel level is a huge risk and it doesn’t guarantee anything, especially in the age of Ai cheats and network mitm cheats

Willdrick,

That’s the point. A read only container to keep low hanging fruit at bay, and flatpak to distribute without having to repackage to every distro under the sun.

I don’t fuck with the game, the game doesn’t fuck with my system.

Willdrick,

Use something like Insular to create a work profile and install the apps there, along gapps and chrome.

That way you keep your work stuff sandboxed, with the bonus of turning them all off when your shift is over.

Willdrick,

If someone does the scout handshake with you, offer a hug and when the animation starts presss S.

Hug is even better as a jerk emote than the intended jerk emote.

Willdrick,

Y’all chill a bit… Saw this post 4 hours ago, rushed a job to hop in and i just checked helldivers.io and its already liberated!

Willdrick,

Probable firefox theme and addons to replicate the Arc browser layout

Willdrick,

Hold down meta and you can drag the window from anywhere (on gnome at least thats a default)
