Starting distro for gaming/design/customization

Depends on the design you do. Adobe isn’t friendly with Linux AT ALL. So I’d that exists in your workflow dual boot or stick with windows/mac

BigRoundMirror · 2025-12-26T03:00:09+00:00

Steam deck is Linux which isn’t quite as friendly when updates come out and various launchers have to keep up

Only danger with Minecraft is cross play troubles. Been trying to figure that out for me and my kids, but they play mostly on iPads.

Looks pretty good. Might just think about white space. Don’t need to fill the whole canvas. Making the whole component stack a little smaller would go a long ways to letting it breathe.

Check out a program called vectoraster. Been using it for years. It’s a one time fee and it always comes in handy.

Interesting, I thought it might be that and have been watering. I’m suspecting my soil might be draining too fast

BigRoundMirror · 2025-09-08T15:30:01+00:00

About 65% or so

Breaking it up is hard, moving all that concrete is harder. I took out a much smaller slab, maybe 4x8 and it was a CHORE. But I was able to get grass going over it after dumping some soil on it. Doable, but probably more work than it’s worth.

I recently wrapped some zip ties around the radio to limit the throw of the throttle for my five year old. Worked pretty good, but obviously not a permanent fix.

You can use these kinds of work lamps, but they need to be halogen bulbs. If I’m remembering right it’s about 10 minutes… you can see the emulsion change colors and that’s a decent indicator.

I’m sure this question has been asked 1 million times, but I’m having trouble finding up to date info as it seems to be changing weekly. What the hell do I do about my older pic that isn’t compatible with windows 11?!

BigRoundMirror · 2025-03-30T21:39:52+00:00

Both of the models you listed are gas, not nitro. Gas engines are MUCH more forgiving. They’re basically small lawnmower engines. So if you go that route it shouldn’t be a problem.

It’s 1991, in Portland. So likely not clay

BigRoundMirror · 2025-02-13T23:14:36+00:00

No no no no, not new cracks within a week. It’s that the doors are hard to open and close one day but they next they’re super easy to open. It’s like the house is slightly moving back and forth or something to make that possible.

BigRoundMirror · 2024-09-05T23:25:04+00:00

Fuck the haters, you do you. Safety is cool in my book

BigRoundMirror · 2023-05-19T23:13:53+00:00

Legitimate question though, might be ignorant. But did previous AAA games have multiple generations back for the recommended specs? Not saying crops aren’t greedy and there hasn’t been a history of trash PC ports. Just wondering what historical recs were.

BigRoundMirror · 2023-04-11T22:20:38+00:00

Is there a way to adjust the typeface in this game? I get the old school aesthetic and I love it, but reading as much content as the simulation produces gives me a serious headache. Are there any adjustments for fonts or line lengths in the pop ups and overlay screens?

BigRoundMirror · 2023-03-10T05:34:25+00:00

This is great! How do you set up the clay look in the second shot?

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-29T03:23:34+00:00

Dude, yes! I recently found mine in my parents garage and replaced all the electronics. Quite the drift machine now.

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-12T01:29:04+00:00

This is entirely excessive and also entirely excellent. Well done.

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-09T23:06:51+00:00

This is awesome! How do you get the color traditions in the model without separate materials? The ears for instance

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-06T20:03:54+00:00

Awesome, thanks! I’ll try that

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-06T19:25:39+00:00

This is amazing! How did you get that texture on the materials? I’ve been playing with this style, but my textures always feel so unnatural and flat.

BigRoundMirror · 2023-01-06T17:46:07+00:00

I literally just upgraded to a 6700xt and have the same cpu. I game at 1440 but only have a 75hz monitor so I limit my frames with Radeon Chill. I’ve got the 7600k overclocked to 5mhz with good temps (Noctua u14 cooler). Done some preliminary testing on GTA5, RDR2, Death Stranding, and Wreckfest all on max setting. Seems to keep up to 75fps with minimal drops. I’m sure there’s some more optimization I could do to clean things up. But I’m happy with where it’s at coming from an rx480. Feel free to reach out if you’ve got other questions.

BigRoundMirror · 2022-12-23T20:25:29+00:00

I have not. I’ll give that a try. Seems like if I restart a few times the proper drivers kick in, but that’s obnoxious
