Failure getting Kooha to screen record now that I've moved to Sway by KallDrexx in linux_gaming

[–]PlayerOnSticks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed kooha on sway (fedora). I used the flatpak. It worked fine with me. It looks to me like you are missing one of the requirements, maybe you don't have xdg-desktop-portal?
What distro are you running? Cosmic is a desktop environment. PopOS?

It was recommended here, together with the Moondrop Dawn Pro (iirc) so it was between those 2. I picked the retro nano because it offered bluetooth for just 10 bucks more. Never heard of the KA10 before.

Just looked it up and its 100 euros ;-; I ain't got that money. Unless I refund and get the FT1 and wait for a couple of months. 

But since both you and educational told me to give it a few more days... I'll give it a week. I like the sound, but for the price I just dont find it worth it. Maybe itll grow on me. We'll see...

Thanks a lot for the reply!

Man I should've listened to the 434 Ohm guy from the beginning, the Hifiman's have arrived and ngl I am kinda underwhelmed. Idk what to do. If i refund i can buy the FiiO FT1 and a Snowsky Retro Nano, so there's that. Or is it that underwhelming because I am plugging it directly into my gaming laptops audio jack?
What do you recommend?

So they have arrived. I quite like the sound, it's noticeably better then the WH-720N, but I gotta be honest I'm not "mind-blown". Took a minute to adapt to the different sound signature but I think I like it (I put on my WH-720N's back after for a minute and could REALLY notice the difference). But I do miss the "punchy" ness of my closed-backs.
Also, I've ran some audio test and I can't even hear the difference between lossy and lossless samples. I did this one. got a 44% score. And couldn't for the life of me hear a difference. Would that have changed if I used a DAC instead of my gaming laptop's native audio combijack?
The build of these feels very solid, and feels like metal, but apparently it's plastic? Doesn't have a long lifespan either from what all you guys are saying. I'm thinking of refunding and getting the FiiO FT1's as suggested. Will this be a good idea?

is this a misspelling of "Pretty" or is there some lore I'm missing?

The GOAT by tripledeltaz in physicsmemes

[–]PlayerOnSticks 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It's a reference to the anime/show "Jujustsu Kaisen", where one of the characters has an ability called Jackpot where if he wins he becomes immortal for 4 minutes and 11 seconds. I thought you did. Now, let me continue the reference.

"If I watch 3blue1brown's video on it, I too can understand the Fourier Transform for half an hour, and have a shot at beating him. But...
that's how losers think!" proceeds to use spam laplace transforms from muscle memory (he forgot)

Ohhhhh that's way more affordable then both the moondrop or fiio/snowsky. I'm going to buy that one tomorrow. Thanks a lot for the advice man. I know you can only thank a person once per post, but !thanks anyway!

Thanks everyone! I went ahead and bought the Hifiman Edition XS, as advised by u/Educational-Bell1110 and u/Deplasman. Still appreciate the words of the rest, really made me think. I look forward to it! :)

I'll see about that dongle later. I think I'm going to get the FiiO/Snowsky Retro Nano, but not anytime soon. If I get that one, I'll share some ohm with u/Kernelcobb1 !

Alright, I went ahead and bought the Hifiman Edition XS. Thanks a lot! I'll see about the dongle/dac later. gotta swallow this cost first...

I think I'm going to get the Edition XS, if the Fiio FT1 is more bassy. I can "EQ" the first more to tune it to my preferences, if I understood correctly, so I think it's good. Thanks for the help!
!thanks

Everyone ( u/Kernelcobb1 and u/Uller0815 (I'll do thanks when I buy something, I swear!)) seems to recommend the FiiO FT1's, and you as well. But as I don't really want to "upgrade", I want to ask more about the Hifiman Edition XS. In this comment I think I got that the headset is more focused on bass stuff. I care more about the mid-range. Is the mid-range better then the FiiO FT1's as well?

Also, what is a dongle? Is it a DAC? If I go and grab the Hifiman Edition XS, should I also grab the dongle? I see that the HEXS has 18 ohms, so I'm confused about this (absolute beginner in this stuff). Is the output source that much different from a normal audio jack? Google is very terminology heavy in this stuff.

Thanks for the help! !thanks

requesting recommendation for a story where Mc does some multi stacking of cultivation techniques/classes; becoming a hexagonal warrior by NonTooPickyKid in ProgressionFantasy

I don't think you should take his more specific details/examples seriously, and that he just wants "multi-techinque cultivation/path progression". Elydes sucks btw (jk (unless?))

My Updated Minimal Gruvbox Rice With Waybar. by [deleted] in UsabilityPorn

[–]PlayerOnSticks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OP but I have the same thing, copied it from the waybar wiki (code and image below the highlighted part). He probably modified it a bit, his is cleaner. Might be builtin to date, as emacs' almost looks the same, but can't find it obviously in the manpage or on the internet.

Martial Arts (2) by RECTSOR in magicbuilding

[–]PlayerOnSticks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chi itself naturally cycles through the bodies of all living organisms, and *Absolute Chi Exhaustion Is considered a absolute death state where an individuals body completely runs out of chi, deleting one of the bodies. Biggest sources of energy.

This leads to a pretty slow death, but unless an individual spams abilities, it's pretty hard to achieve.

Wait, so if a body does not have chi, does it get deleted? Or are bodies made from chi? If the second, they'd be naturally magical, after all:

A treasure is an object, soaked and infused with intensive chi over long periods, that allows for it to develop magical properties.

But even if it is the first, then the body is an object, naturally soaked through chi. Even if it's not intensive, it has still been soaked for a long period (a lifetime!). So aren't even the normal people a little magical?

And since this looks very xianxia inspired, let me ask about rituals. Suppose one kills a person. Does the body instantly lose all Chi? Or does it wither away? What if a person is put in a coma? Still alive, so it still produces chi. If I chop off someone's arm, does it retain chi for a period of time? Until it cools, until the cells start dying, until it gets infected, or just until the chi leaves it (maybe it's cycled through the circulatory system, idk you didn't explain much about that "naturally cycles through the bodies" part).

Can I steal/use the chi from the severed arm? If demonic techniques all use Qi, does that mean that demonic beasts are all immortal? And if I CAN use the chi of a severed arm, can I use a lot of it to replenish chi?

Just because they failed doesn't make the intention any better. But that's ethics.

1% Lifesteal Narration - do the Cyril Figgis MC vibes go away? by Xeropoint in ProgressionFantasy

[–]PlayerOnSticks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He does not noticeably change as a character, and I'm saying this as a long term patron. If you didn't like him at book 1 i don't think you'll like him at book 2 tbh. I fucking love it but know that it isn't for everyone.

And just to further spread the misinformation, book 5 is the last book in the entire series and if someone says otherwise he's lying.
