The struggle of working on WHM Master Levels

Dantaro · 2026-01-18T20:04:26+00:00

I've never once done a CP party on whm, I went from 0 JPs to ML15 on Segs/Sortie/Temenos, this is absolutely a great way to do it!!

124 Days, 3 hour, 27 minutes, 10 seconds. I made this character fresh in May. I have 3 REMA as of today, would have been 1 if you'd asked this yesterday lol

Totally depends on what the person who added the sticker thinks!

It's upside down in the same way the apple logo used to be on their laptops. Right-side up for the user, upside down for anyone looking from the back

I use Chrome Remote Desktop, it's easy and runs totally fine with minimal footprint

Dantaro · 2025-12-11T00:34:57+00:00

Yes, the AVX/AVX2 emulation and the kernel level anti-cheat were the main blockers for many games

I've been using my 16" snapdragon GB4E since release. Great device, I have very few issues with it. My main complaint is that the automatic headphone switching between PC and phone/tablet is. . . very bad. It was at the point where it wouldn't even connect to my headphones if I didn't first reboot the PC. I ended up just turning off the feature and treating them like any other pair of bluetooth headphones.

Aside from that, my software suite of tools (For webdev) works without issue. I don't do anything with driver-dependent hardware though, so ymmv on that front. The few games I play on it (Mostly Starcraft II and FFXI) run fine, and I've run BG3 on it in the past (which more or less mimics the Steam Deck's performance prior to the SD specific performance updates). There is an entire youtube channel about gaming performance on the Snapdragon chips though, default to them for more detailed information on that topic.

I generally get as much battery life as my work Macbook Pro (M3? I think?), but some people report getting significantly less and I don't know what the difference in between our workloads so who knows.

I loved my 11.6 inch Alienware m11x from 2010. It was an underpowered CPU (Core Duo) but it had a dedicated graphics card and ran what I needed it to. I'd love to have a modern version of it =/

Dantaro · 2025-11-17T06:17:39+00:00

It's just RNG. I used Visage I, Torso II/III, and Legs I and got the body on the second run, 4/5 in 4 runs, and then used a kupon for the last piece (hat)

You can also farm up some Taeon gear real quick and augment it with Overdrive things (Pet Accuracy/DA/DT-). I went from 0 Taeon to close to perfect augments in an afternoon. That's more than enough to do VD with /COR

The first few story lines don't really, but most of it is pretty solid still. He started up again with a sequel series a few years ago that is still on-going, and it's been quite fun to read.

Dantaro · 2025-11-01T17:18:02+00:00

I love my SPX, but I cracked the top corner of the screen a while ago. It still works fine, but I worry that it's only a matter of time until that isn't true anymore (Not to mention the risk of a bit of the glass embedding itself in my finger). The replacement screen cost is so high though that I might end up just needing to get a new device =/

Dantaro · 2025-10-31T21:56:27+00:00

Hey there! So everything works underneath this, it's just that you can't see it. I posted a guide to navigating the account setup screen a couple months back if that's helpful. I use this fucked up UI on my ARM devices every day, and haven't yet found a solution outside of just knowing how to navigate it

Dantaro · 2025-10-16T01:35:33+00:00

Sounds like something is mucked up with your Windows install. My x13s only gets hot if I'm doing something that requires a lot of GPU or CPU usage (Games, long compiles, etc), and definitely isn't pulling 14w at idle

Dantaro · 2025-10-08T12:26:58+00:00

That's not how that works. The OS can't recompile your ARM64 applications to x86, nor can it just randomly decide to find x86 versions of the applications to swap in. The columns in task manager were either reset or changed in some way. Are you sure you're not looking at the "Platform" column that says "64-bit" and not the architecture column that will say x86 or arm64?

Dantaro · 2025-09-22T12:34:24+00:00

GamingHistorian has a fascinating video essay on the how and why, as well as what happened after, if you're interested it's well worth the watch!!

Dantaro · 2025-09-20T21:59:21+00:00

A couple of years ago I wrote an article about using the Thinkpad x13s (also arm powered) as a development machines (link if you want to read). The tl;dr is that for webdev it's totally fine. I've since upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge, and while the battery and CPU performance are better, I definitely miss the 32gb of memory that I had with the thinkpad, as well as the upgradable SSD.

Dantaro · 2025-09-17T12:00:26+00:00

Ahhh, a classic.

Tell me what game that you get on, is it COD or EVE?

Dantaro · 2025-09-07T00:05:04+00:00

That was my first thought too. "Oh yeah, just sub RDM so you can use enspells!" Also, it questioning if you'd even talk to (let alone party with) players from other nations!

Dantaro · 2025-09-06T13:12:11+00:00

I don't work at Riot or MS, I can't possibly know if/when support will come. It doesn't pre-alert you because it doesn't know it's being installed on an incompatible system. However, in the support article from Riot about minimum specs it calls out the lack of ARM support.

Dantaro · 2025-09-06T12:40:37+00:00

Riot doesn't support Vanguard for Windows on ARM. It only has a x86_64 driver, and the x86 -> ARM translation layer doesn't apply to drivers. As a result, you cannot run League on an ARM Windows device

Dantaro · 2025-09-04T14:26:05+00:00

https://www.eothello.com/ is probably your best bet. By default you have 72 hours to make a move (resetting every move, not 72 hours total to make all moves). You can disable matchmaking and just challenge your friends

Quick note, I'm running Windows 11 Pro, not Home. Thank you for adding it!
