As long as you're comfortable setting up the emulations, Steam Deck seems like a better choice then.

Has she tried playing on your steam deck?

I got the OLED Deck this year to replace my Switch, and the first thing I noticed was that my hands are not quite big enough. I can't reach the Y button with my thumb quickly, and I cannot comfortably put my index and middle fingers on the bumper and trigger buttons. I ended up mapping the bumpers to the back buttons and got used to pressing trigger with my index finger, but it took a while to get over my muscle memory.

Yes it did! Quite happy with how everything went, will probably try to do the same again next year

I did a super important presentation earlier today, I feel like I understand what they felt lol

Not a boss, the bonfire crowd in Bloodborne. It was one of my first video games, I had no idea what I was doing and it took me a whole week.

Just beat Silksong for true ending yesterday. Might go back and finally get all the upgrades for 100%

Which boss in Bloodborne?

[–] Panties@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

Try to go left for a minute until I realise I'll be looking at the back of the head most of the game anyway.

I've had pretty good experiences with https://42keebs.eu/ and https://keeb.supply/ for my two split keyboards. They both offer kits and assembly services. I especially like that acrylic covers from 42 keebs, and they hand write a greeting on the receipt, which always makes me feel quite nice, haha.

For a first build I feel like QMK firmware with Vial support really made it easy for me to configure the keys how I like. My second keyboard used ZMK, directly modifying config file is not exactly hard, just a little more daunting.

I did ask a colleague to teach me how to solder for my first keyboard, he spent 10 minutes explaining, I practiced a little, and then I soldered everything without too much issue. I enjoyed it a lot, but it's probably not for everyone.

I also quite like https://splitkb.com/ with their super easy customizable designs, but never really went for that kind of budget. They should be within your budget though, you should check them out.

I don't know if it's actually related, but I've read that asking people to draw a clock face is a simple way to identify some brain problems

Quick screening for dementia, according to this

Edit: I guess this means most of the AI has 'Conceptual Deficits', pretty accurate lol

I think I'm doing the final fight of Silksong, although there are a few things I plan to go back to finish afterwards.

Just bought Hades 2 yesterday, but not sure when I'll play it. After Silksong I'm probably going to play something less action heavy for a while.

I honestly thought she was yawning before I read the story

[–] Panties@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thank you, that would be great!

I've been wanting to invite a couple people for a small board game evening, but so much has been happening at work that I just couldn't summon up the mental energy to do it. I'll for sure hit you up when I get around to it!

 

I just feel sad about it. I've been buying most of my games from the same shop for years, the staff is really friendly and knowledgeable. A couple weeks ago they suddenly announced they're closing.

Switching my computer from Windows to Linux is one of the best decisions I have ever made🔥👌

Original: In the previous post in the community it was pointed out that there really isn't a whole lot of relevant topics specific to the Netflix streaming service, so it may be a good idea to consolidate to !television@piefed.social , which is more active. What do you think?

 

My PC freezes up quite often while using Discord, it reacts to nothing except force shutdown :( Otherwise it's been running great since I started using Mint last year.

 

Share your opinion! Do you use the feature? Do you think it should be continued? Any games you like?

TLDR: thinking about getting a new printer with a budget of maybe €1200, mostly for toys and hueforge. Preferably FOSS

I got an Ender 3 Pro three years ago as my first printer. Over the years I've printed plenty toys and some occasional functional parts, and it's been mostly pretty good. It's developed problems now and then, but I've been able to fix them.

I've recently played a bit with HueForge, it's this software that allows you to print really nice multicolour images by blending filament colours. This is doable by printing in super thin layers. It worked really well on the prusa mk4s at work, but not so much on my printer. Extrusion is just not consistent enough after swapping colours, or when there's a lot of retractions/deretractions.

I've gotten a bit tired of all the limitations the Ender 3 Pro has. I was looking at a Prusa mk4s with mmu3, since I enjoyed assembling the mk4 at work, and it's been working so well, even for the colleagues who don't know much about 3d printing. Although, for personal use, do I really want to pay the premium price for that level of reliability and longevity? A lot of budget brands do offer multi colour capable printers these days.

But I also feel pretty tempted to try building a Voron, and while I was looking at those I saw some IDEX printer that look so cool lol. And there's also the Enderwire that can make use of my old Ender 3 Pro...

Please help.

Update: I went and ordered a QIDI Q1Pro. My partner and I agreed to get a Voron kit and build it together for Christmas, I'll figure out what multi-mterial system to go for after that. Hopefully the Bondtech INDX

 

I learned about postmark games a couple years ago, found the print and play format quite interesting and wanted to try something. But it looks like all their games are competitive, which I often don't enjoy.

Mostly I really like talking about the game while playing, so I wouldn't mind a game that's mostly luck-based or where there's little player interaction.

Please recommend me some print-and-play games if possible! I'd love to know if any other publishers do this too

 

I really liked the Black Magician trilogy. I'd love to read more books that have 'evil' magic as a major component of the plot, preferably with some kind of trope subversion.
