oh, I’ve been wondering about this, as I’ve had occasional youtube-video just enter the infinite buffering. Oddly it has only happened on linux o_O

it’s like that friends -meme: “repeat after me: discord is not the place for documentation/wiki/distribution”, and joey goes “discord is the place for documentation/wiki/distribution”.

sample size of 1, admittedly, but there’s so few times I’ve managed to break arch - which I can’t 100% attribute to myself.

Once the updates broke, somehow wiping bash -binary and kernel. Not entirely sure how or why, all I did was a normal pacman -Suy. I might have issued the pacman -command from a long path which didn’t exist anymore, not sure if relevant or not. Hasn’t happened since, so… dunno. It did spook me a bit, but nobody else at the time reported similar issues.

I’ve ran arch for years at work (webdevelopment, desktop and laptop), home server (irc shell, mumble, etc hosting) and now home desktop too (gaming, media, dualbooting with win10).

The home server has required a powerbutton -forced boot once or twice, many months of uptime & regular kernel updates can apparently mess something with networking and usb, so can’t ssh in and keyboard doesn’t get regognized when plugged in. So, you know, reboot after kernel updates? :D

It’s always a good idea to check the website for breaking changes which require manually doing something, there has been a few along the years.

personally: only second-hand info about reddragon keyboards.

The pricepoint is low, don’t expect premium experience. It’ll do keyboard stuff just fine, most likely.

Also, apparently the customization app doesn’t work at all on linux, even through wine. EDIT: openrgb does support some reddragon models, but only mice. https://openrgb.org/devices_0.9.html?search=red+dragon - but, keyboard support might happen?

I haven’t played many SNES games, but the ones I have have been pretty good. Fairly sure there’s quite a bit of stinkers in there too.

while all of those qualities are great, they alone don’t make game great.

Dunno if it is good or bad, but Warframe has this loading screen where you see players’ ships and you can steer them a bit. No real point to it, but at least it’s something to do when waiting for someone to load in.

just… bookmark folder? menu -> bookmarks -> “…” on the bookmark folder you want -> open all in private tabs?

deleted by creator

Got to play it with someone for a bit, they seemed to know where all the neat things were (iirc, the murals, scarf lengthening thingies, etc). But due to the inability to communicate more than just “dings” I couldn’t convey that I needed a quick toilet break. They were gone after I came back, which was a bit sad but I probably wouldn’t have stayed waiting either, tbh.

It was quite okay, I recall playing it through twice, but the second round didn’t really offer much in terms of “value” over the first. Cool visuals and concept, though.

Other somewhat similar vibing games which I somewhat relate to Journey:

• Sable - Somewhat similar character designs, quite a bit more scifi and some dialogue. Pretty cool 3d platformer puzzle.
• Proteus - walking-sim, graphics are those “if atari 2600 could do 3d”. Kinda cool experience, but also kinda one-and-done.

That’s probably the thing. My videos are in finnish, with quite a bit of background speech in english (long story short: they’re letsplays). Could be that the auto-transcription can’t quite parse the random mix of finnish and english. I’ve mostly seen some odd videotitles translated to finnish, and tbh, they are so wildly confusing to me. I almost skipped a video from one of my fav. creators due to the title as I wasn’t expecting it.

(the creator may have to enable this, not sure).

afaik not an option for creators, OR it isn’t an option for me/my videos.

good to hear. But, either way all my current stuff is on offline and none of my friends have the game, so moot point.

Last Epoch

playing offline because that’s where all my stuff is as last I checked the online was a disaster. Other than that, it’s pretty cool ARPG. Though I have some thoughts about some “gearcheck” -type bosses. After ~180h (since beta) or whatever, I’m still thinking it’s a solid 7/10. Fairly enjoyable, but not greatest of all time by any stretch.

Content Warning

It’s completely stupid and I love it. Essentially wannabe-“spööktubers” take a camera and few flashlights into dark, abandoned industrial complex to film something spooky, just to gain views on “Spööktube”. Views gain you money, money buys you gear.

The dives to the industrial complex are very short too, as you can only film so much (90s max, it seems), and the monsters are hella deadly. Either the camera gets filled or everyone is dead in minutes.

The footage can be saved as .webm -videos to desktop, which is GREAT

Under a steel sky

Is there a third game in the series I’m not aware of or did you mean Beneath a steel sky?

they’re prebuilt as in: no soldering iron needed. I’m unaware if the switches/keycaps are on out-of-the-box, but that’s like 15min of “keeb hobbying” to put them in.

but it seems that you need to at least solder the keycaps yourself, which I can’t.

solder … keycaps? Surely you mean switches :D

Anyhoo, Moonlander? https://www.zsa.io/moonlander/ - hotswappable switches, ortholinear-ish, split and qmk support

edit: or bit more minimal: https://www.zsa.io/voyager

if firefox is the default browser, I guess just start "" "https://your.url.here.foo", as per https://superuser.com/a/36730

otherwise, I guess you could just cd to firefox’s directory and do the same firefox.exe urlhere

as for specific window… yea that might be tad hard. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/CommandLineOptions doesn’t seem to have any way to indicate any specific instance/window from cli.

could be firefox handles those internally, kinda seems like urls open up in the window which was last active. So… I guess you could start the script by starting firefox with --new-instance or --new-window, and patiently wait until urls are open? I guess.

Assuming you know what you’re doing, maybe some script? At least on linux something like this seems to work:

#!/bin/bash

urls_file="${HOME}/path/to/url_list.txt";
sleep_time=1;

while read -r line;
do
    firefox "${line}";
    sleep ${sleep_time};
done < "${urls_file}";

edit: heh, tried to delete this as irrelevant, as I entirely missed the clipboard & requirement for a button IN firefox… but it didn’t really delete it seems. Oh well, leaving this in for laughs.

Anyhoo, if you need to speed up/throttle the link opening somehow, maybe add some incremental counter there and skip sleeping if counter < 10 or whatever.

got to say, the update went smoothly and didn’t need to touch any configs.

Feels quite a bit smoother than the KDE 5 on this aging hardware (i5-2320, igpu, 16GB ram, sata ssd). <3

I can now even “alt-tab” backwards with shift! That just didn’t work previously!
