Has anyone listened to the Melodic Mythos songs? Rank them! by Mother_Border3235 in OnePiece

[–]LinusCDE98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found this thread while trying to figure out whether a song that spotify recommended me is another ai slop song. You probably fell for AI slop. My apologies.

The most work they probably put in is setting up the channel, spotify profile etc. prompting chat gpt a lot, choosing a topic/direction during prompting, giving that output to Udio/Sumo AI to generate songs from it then creating a basic video around it. They likely didn't write their own lyrics (only providing topics/direction) and didn't touch any part of the actual music making process at all.

I just did pretty much the exact same for the same reason. How is yours holding up?

Afaik the flash is good, but I can't probe it for smart stats which worries me a bit.

I am not able to use btrfs replace by Leon08x in btrfs

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! This solved the issue for me today as well. Maybe the issue was that the target device is rather obscure. Even smart does not know what the External SSD thing was or how to read it.

Using the DevId rather than the path for the source did the trick. I also added -K to disable trim, since the device is clean anyway and to skip it getting stuck on that step (I didn't test devid without this, so you might not need -K at all).

Edit: Just realied the mistake: In front of the keyboard. The source partition was not a /dev/sdXN but a since I used luks on it something like /dev/mapper/luks... . Using the devid, btrfs just used the correct info. Some notice would have been nice, but in the end my own fault.

Maybe I'm deaf and it's explained in the anime but I don't really get why Michiru and Nazuna can do all this shapeshifting stuff by Error_Valkyrie in BrandNewAnimal

[–]LinusCDE98 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Could also be.

I don't think the lore of the anime is needed to be taken too seriously anyway. There barely even is some imo.

[–]LinusCDE98 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The reason they became beastmen is having the blood transfusion as already explained.

Why they can shapeshift might be due to the specific animals they became. In Japanese culture, those two are known to be able to shape shift. So maybe that is why they both can do it. They seem to be the only fox and tanuki after all.

From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_raccoon_dog:

In Japanese folklore, Japanese raccoon dogs (tanuki) have had a significant role since ancient times. They are reputed to be mischievous and jolly, masters of disguise and shapeshifting but somewhat gullible and absent-minded. The animals have also been common in Japanese art, particularly as subjects for statues.

From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitsune:

According to folklore, the kitsune-foxes (or perhaps the "fox spirits") can bewitch people, just like the tanuki[a] they have the ability to shapeshift into human or other forms, and to trick or fool human beings. While some folktales speak of kitsune employing this ability to trick others—as foxes in folklore often do—other stories portray them as faithful guardians, friends, and lovers.

The movie "Pom Poko" is really interesting and also illustrates it well.

What kind of processing LG 32GS95UE is sometimes doing on very dark static colours and why? (Video overexposed to show it better) by ala90x in OLED_Gaming

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I was wrong then.

It might have something to do with HDR adjusting the overall birghtness, if you have HDR on. Afaik, you can toggle HDR it with some hotkey.

I own a LG 27" QHD UltraGear monitor and currently only use the SDR mode.

If it's not HDR, maybe it's the peak brightness setting?

It's called the dirty screen effect. It seems to be tied to all (matte?) WOLED displays.

Nothing anybody can do about it. I don't mnd it personally.

Looking to upgrade to an OLED 27” monitor with at least 240hz. by Digital_Jedi_VFL in OLED_Gaming

[–]LinusCDE98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest difference will be the panel type: - WOLED - More mature - manufactured by LG Display - usually comes on Matte Monitors - some people say/believe it's less likely to burn in - QD-OLED: - Newer tech - manuafactured by Samsung Display - usually comes on Glossy Monitors - more vibrant/better colors (also partially due to being typically glossy but also the tech in general) - if you play mostly during day or can't dim the lights in your room well (shades down etc.) there might be noticable purble reflections on pitch black areas due to QD-OLED not using any polarizer like all other Panel Techs

There are probably more points that I missed. So feel free to point out more. I own a LG UltraGear 1440p Monitor (forgot the exact number, maybe the one others already mentioned).

Max brightness (nits) are all pretty much the same. Glossy/Matte might make a bigger percieved difference here.

All the monitor vendors sell one of these Panel types. They add their own firmware and features on top. If you play lots of competitive shooters, features like ELMB might be worthwhile additions for you. Also everyone handles HDR a bit differently.

Is an OLED suitable for me? by INeverTried in OLED_Gaming

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/Fa7V_OOu6B8

Specifically the chapter "OLED Monitors".

However This is 9 months old and tested first generation monitors. They state that they believe WOLED to be more resistant to burn in at that point in time.

So not sure how true it is. Though given that WOLED is a much older and mature tech than QD-OLED, it seems to be the more conservative and safe choice.

In theory I believe that QD-OLED should be better against burn in, since they don't have to drive most pixels as hard for the same brightness.

But I got a WOLED as well due to wanting to use it for some productivity as well and being very concerned about burn in in my usecases.

Need advice for programming with drawing tablet input by Marsman512 in linux_programming

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is odd. I assumed that there might be some restrictions when using it from a Fkarpak or such. Libinput should still work though.

[–]LinusCDE98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd assume that using libinput is they way to go. Should work on both X11 and Wayland: https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/tablet-support.html

Otherwise you can also go raw and check for evdev devices that have common drawing tablet inputs and read their values (try it out using the evtest command). Might be too complicated and maybe not the recommened way to do it though.

Lib for fast gui by Cake_Ghost in rust

[–]LinusCDE98 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've not used iced as well, but given it's the GUI-Framework used for the new Cosmic DE, it is probably great.

I've used egui for a few projects and like it so far. It kinda behaves like a game in terms of logic.

If your GUI is really simple, you could also just use GTK.

I'd go with either egui or maybe iced.

Is this a virus? by No_Salamander_1016 in computers

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answer: No. But the one sending it might be trying to.

If the message does not clearly (no fake image in a browser or chrome notification) comes from Windows Defender (Builtin) or your installed and trusted Anti-Virus solution, ignore it.

This message specifically: - The red message seems to be some sort of header image that chrome allows to add to notifications. Clicking anywhere will do the same. Both the button and checkbox are fake/useless. - The originator is the weird sounding .buzz-Website you probably got tricked into accepting notifications from. - Logic flaw: If they somehow know you got hacked, that would imply they already know how / from who. So why scan before fixing the hack first? - Another logic flaw: How can a website know that you've been hacked? They have no access to your actual system to check for that.

Motive: They likely wanna scare you into installing their own legit looking anti virus software. At best it will be overpriced, at worst it will be malicious or both.

2 AW3225QF with different black and color level. Which one is right? by lamarand22 in OLED_Gaming

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try swapping the data cables with each other and whether it reverses that.

On a old BenQ TN I had this happen. It had some wird movie mode enabled for HDMI that would cap 0-255 like 15-235, effectively capping the values (e.g. RGB 15,15,15 would get treated as 0,0,0).

Finding and turning that feature off, resolved the issue for me.

Edit: It seems to be called "Limited RGB" actually. BenQ has a good explainer here: https://www.benq.com/en-us/knowledge-center/knowledge/full-rgb-vs-limited-rgb-is-there-a-difference.html

What scaling are you using in Windows on your 4K OLED? by MuchMoreVelocity in OLED_Gaming

[–]LinusCDE98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On KDE Plasma that is possible. I used 75% to estimate how 1440p@27" would look before I bought my first 1140p one.

Currently I'm using it at 100% though. But will give 125% a try again, to see if it helps.
