I have a bunch of mechanical watches that are varying degrees of inaccurate by their nature, but I do have one that isn’t inaccurate at all. A square Gshock that uses six band radio towers to update itself nightly. Just as accurate as a phone, and I use it as my reference to set my mechanical watches.
So there’s at least that alternative. Silly I know, because I’ve always got my phone close by, but I just think they’re neat.
Rightoids love RT.
This was a rollercoaster of a read for me. I have a deposit on a 13 pro, and it’s really nice to know they stand behind their product.
I very much agree. I think that this aligns with the spirit of FOSS. As the neofetch decays on the forest floor, the fastfetch rises in its place to fill its role in the ecosystem. This how our ecosystem stays fresh and moves forward.
I used wanderer pretty much the entire game, best crest.
She’s actually entirely predictable if you just pay attention to her attack cues. I beat her on the first try if memory serves. As Hornet said in HollowKnight, “GITGUD!”
Old post is old
There’s definitely middle ground to be found, and decency to exercise.
Lefty here. I have a queer wife who identifies as non-binary but still identifies as my wife, as well as plenty of trans and queer people in my social circles, and I don’t see the need to word police myself over completely innocent phrases. I don’t think you’re harming anyone by just saying women, when the men or nonbinary people who can get pregnant constitute like a tenth of a percentage of the population.
I go out of my way to make sure the not-straight people in my life feel safe and comfortable around me, but there’s a certain level of pearl clutching over language that I don’t feel the need to engage with. You aren’t being hateful, you’re treating people like human beings, and you get to decide for yourself how you speak.
I’m into other forms of retro electronics and I must warn you. It sounds like you’re veering into hobby territory.
You found this thing. It might be neat. But let’s say you pick it up and find that the batter doesn’t hold a charge very long. Do you buy another one, or do you invest in new tools for tiny electronics, maybe some jewelers style magnification and lighting, and invest time into learning how to service this device, building skills and knowledge from the experience.
To me this sounds great, assuming you can afford a hobby, or find ways to make the hobby affordable. What other interesting directions could the new skills and tools take you in?
And that my friend is the primary caveat to Linux. More work. For the day to day user browsing the web, checking email, etc, it typically just works.
Certain use cases will require a lot more tinkering, and thus more work. If you have patience, and enjoy the work, enjoy the learning, it’s not a bad thing.
If you have an AMD GPU, corectrl is a graphical application for controlling your GPU and CPU, works great, but make sure you know what you’re doing.
ckb-next is a reverse engineered solution for controlling RGB on Corsair peripherals. I’m not certain what other functionality it may have but it’s worth checking out.
It looks like there are a couple of apps in development for the streamdeck, python-elgato-streamdeck and streamcontroller. Both of these may require some education to utilize.
I’m not sure which Vortex you’re referring to, is it the mod manager? If so, you’ll likely need to dig up some other means of using mods.
Wine and proton used through steam have done a phenomenal job of making gaming accessible on Linux. Unfortunately, making other windows software work as if it were native is very touch and go with wine.
When anyone switches to Linux they really have to think about all of the caveats and potential deal breakers that may crop up. A dedicated Linux user will go out of their way to acquire hardware that they know to be directly supported by either the kernel itself or another reverse engineered kernel module. For instance, I use Razer peripherals, because openrazer and polychromatic do an incredible job of making them work without any loss of functionality.
I hope some of this is helpful
Don’t be in debt.
Did you disable secure boot?
They hated him, because he spoke the truth
It’s a particularly fitting line from the movie Idiocracy.
Ohhhhhh shit you’re right. I still stand by my statement lol. If you don’t own Stardew you should.
Hollow knight is another one like that. Absolute must play.
Definitely Stardew. Everyone should have Stardew.
Maybe reread my comment? The Gshock watch sets itself daily to the atomic clock via radio broadcast. I use that watch as my reference to set the others when they’re a little off.
Edit: here’s the link from Casio explaining the technology https://gshock.casio.com/intl/technology/radio/
