  • If you have an Alt-graph key you can type more glyphs by hitting it while typing a key. Ctrl+Alt also acts as an alt graph key. Shift also changes the glyphs. On windows you need to switch to the English International keyboard for the alt-graph key to do anything if you are on the English US layout.

    Ø

    you can get this glyph by typing Alt-graph+L

  • I just type ls everytime I cd into something. It's not that efficient honestly but I usually remember where I want to go after going there a couple times. Also if you hit tab twice after typing cd and a space, it shows all of the files in the directory.

  • Acceleration of Suguri 2 has a tutorial that is just 9 pages talking about the games systems telling you about how specific buttons are for what attacks and which button combinations and other stuff, but it never tells you what those buttons actually are, it just says they are the attack A, attack B, dash button, hyper button, super button. It took me an hour of playing the game to figure out what all of the buttons were.

  • I'm on gnome 44.3 on NixOS. I noticed 3 of them but thats it, one of them 3 hours ago and 2 of them 44 minutes ago.

    Yeah I checked the manpage but wasn't sure why this would be running by itself.

  • Worse than that, on the psp if you play japanese games that are not localised to english, the circle becomes the okay button, but in the rest of the os, the x is the okay button so you have to mentally switch.

  • I don't have any of the competitors, but the screen quality seems fine to me. If you hold it at a reasonable distance you can't really see the pixels. Compared to my switch it is definitely heavier and bigger, so its not very comfortable to hold up because of its weight, so I just rest it on my lap or a table when using it. A small annoyance with the screen is that the resolution isn't a standard ratio so a lot of games have black bars on the top and bottom.

  • The steam deck has better performance when you set it to low power consumption, but the competitors have better performance when set at higher power consumption. If you play a lot mouse based games, the trackpads are very nice. Emulation works great on the steam deck and it is possible to play epic games (I don't use epic so idk how good it is).

  • Webnovel sites in Korea and China sell books one chapter at a time, and some of their publishers are trying to break into the Western market with the same structure (ie Wattpad bought by naver, Webnovel.com owned by Qidian). They also like using virtual currency for buying chapters. Korean and Chinese web comics are also sold this way. Publishers really like the microtransaction money no matter the industry. If they could figure out how to sell microtransactions for movies I bet they would do it.

    Side note: I downloaded this chinese app for downloading region locked games on mobile and they somehow figured out how to put gacha in it. Publishers seem to do anything for money no matter how little sense it makes.

  • You should dual boot windows and linux if you want to keep using the Oculus Rift because there is no chance to getting it working on linux.

    In my opinion its better to first test out some distros in virtual box and use them for the tasks that you would usually use your computer for. I'd recommend trying out Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora, Debian, and Pop OS. These are solid distros that work.

    Once you find a distro that you like, you should start dual booting it. I got a second drive for that, before eventually copying all the files I needed over to the second drive and wiping the first drive to be my main after a year. (you can still access your windows files this way without losing any storage to linux) (steam games do not work when on windows partitions so you'll still have to redownload games)

  • In my experience, doing small changes to your nix config when using nix flakes seems to be faster. For me it only rebuilds everything when I run nix flake update before running sudo nixos-rebuild switch so it seems faster because it only does the thing that I changed instead of updating everything.
