hey users on the fediverse, is there a way to tile windows on KDE Plasma 6? I've seen some stuff about Bismuth but it doesn't look like it's functional anymore, is there anything similar?

@the_green_paper I'm looking for a low maintenance option tbh, I'm relatively tech savvy but also I'm new to Linux and don't want to overwhelm myself

@BoydStephenSmithJr on windows I use power toys to get some light tiling tools and tiling as a layer on top of a more traditional window system is so flexible that I really, really enjoy it and I'm hoping I can achieve a similar workflow

Which would make a better blunt weapon?

@bass as someone that's disassembled like a lot of Nintendo hardware, people forget that the guitar hero guitar is just plastic and the Wii balance board has a fucking aluminum frame inside it

Spent the better part of today moving my laptop over to Manjaro

My desktop basically needs to stay on Windows if I want to play some of the games I want to play, but my laptop can be my tinkering machine. Hopefully that gets me to use it more as well

i wish there was some way to run both windows and linux at the same time on my machine so I can run valorant on my windows machine without needing to relegate my linux install to a VM

especially since some of the stuff i rely on for gw2 as well i need windows for lol

@bass that is pretty hype

I'm so burnt out that every game I play right now isn't fun and I want a new game but nothing feels like something I want to invest a lot of time into and it sucks

@neatchee after today's balance stream I'm actively mad at anet and I hate GCDs so FFXIV feels like butt to me :(

@neatchee after Tuesday's finale to soto I'm even angrier at the story team

@neatchee if you asked a 6th grader with a C in creative writing to predict beat for beat what would happen just based on vibes they'd get every single moment spot in

Is startpage.com not working for anyone else? Weird

the end of secrets of the obscure was awful. i hope anet knows how limp that whole expansion was. good lord.

i wish there was a game that was as fun to play to me as gw2 is, but unfortunately there isnt so i just have to choke down whatever boring content they feed us.

@neatchee quick q about the lemmy frontend you're running, is there any way to collapse comments in it? I tend to use that a lot to quickly scan comments and not having that is throwing me off lmao

pixel,
@pixel@urusai.social avatar

@neatchee that is. Not the best UX LMAO

thank you tho now i know :3

I caved and ordered new again. Not thrilled about it. I kind of hate buying new stuff but wearing every day is excruciating on the ears. I can't handle it anymore.

@askDNA @neatchee I made the same switch, i love them. Look into chi-fi headphones, stuff from moondrop is incredibly cheap and worth the price of admission just for testing. Arias are a bit flat but well regarded for their price point. I use more expensive planar magnetic ones, but i dont regret making that same switch one bit

Being an autistic extrovert with social anxiety is so exhausting, I like physically need to spend time around other people in order to recharge, but also I need to recharge from my recharge session being around other people. It's a very tight balancing act

i was quite good at the first one and wow the second one is giving me so much grief. i just want to clear a single run aaaaaaaa

I finally beat the final boss of hades 2 yesterday

holy shit what a hard fight. But I lucked out on maybe the most broken build I could have possibly geared so it went remarkably smoothly, but still. goddamn what a hard boss

What does one do if a bios update freezes?

pixel,
@pixel@urusai.social avatar

@desiree Of course! Tbh it's a pretty easy solve with the right tools on hand for diagnostics, if you live near anyone particularly tech savvy pinging them is worth a shot, and if not microcenter (if you have one close, if not try a local shop. geek squad will overcharge) should be able to have you up and running in the event you're unable to fix it :) good luck!!
