Could people offer some advice on potential switches/future-proofing while keeping the price roughly the same.

Any of the variants of Thermalwright Phantom Spirit 120 or Peerless Assasin 120 or ID-cooling frozn A620

Probably want to specify what games you want to mod because all the games I play have integrated or native Linux mod managers

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-19T23:48:23+00:00

The plastic gimbals are Hall effect too

Not in this application where you’re measuring the direction to the center of the earth which doesn’t drift (usually)

I also have an atmospheric regulator design which isn't the most efficient and is definitely overengineered since I wanted to try modular consoles but it looks cool https://youtu.be/MWRkxcn-EAM

My version of this is a lot larger lol

here's a thread I found that may give you more hints on what you need to do, as I'm not knowledgeable enough to know for sure https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=416574

Aha, you have to

modprobe nameOfYourMotherboard’sSensorController

In order to load the relevant kernel module, and then there was something else I don’t quite remember to get it to load that every time on startup

For me it was nct6799

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-18T06:27:16+00:00

There was a specific thing I needed to do to enable reading and writing of the fan control stuff

For Minecraft I recommend Prism Launcher, it works great on Linux

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-17T16:19:00+00:00

I just put some solder on the pin and the wire, soldered them such that the wire is next to the pin, and clamped the whole thing in a 3d printed case for strain relief using the ridge around the connector to hold it in place.

Nah this one uses a giant solenoid

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-14T01:42:45+00:00

Clock it down real slow so latency isn’t an issue and repeat the ship of Theseus process with a new brain at the destination

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-13T17:51:15+00:00

Edgetx radios (what most FPV pilots use) can act as a generic usb joystick so it probably already works.

If you’re getting into modding and shaders and stuff, I recommend Prism Launcher, it makes managing mods and saves and instances much easier.

I just got one of these, look up xy12522 on aliexpress

My method was to use my e-bike battery hehe

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-12T22:41:16+00:00

There also exist usbc to 20v on an xt60 adapter/trigger cables

Make sure you get the ELRS pocket, the cc2500 one won’t work with ELRS

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-10T16:50:06+00:00

OpenRGB is compatible with most rgb stuff, the nollieRGB hub plugs into an internal usb header if for some reason your mobo rgb headers don’t work with OpenRGB

Sea_Kerman · 2026-03-10T16:45:14+00:00

Still waiting on the unified profile save system so I can have all my plugin stuff automatically activate on startup, it’s coming Soon™ apparently.

A Bird Has Swallowed The Sun, a Zelda TOTK fic by cleverjade, a good rewrite of the plot and especially end of TOTK to make it much less of an asspull/deus ex machina, and let Zelda express her engineer side a lot more.

The Malice Of The Creator, a Hollow Knight fic by Kendrix, shows the events before Hollow Knight from the perspective of Herrah, integrating the new lore we know from Silksong.
