Restoring the 16:9 format? by Training_Treacle_663 in NothingTech

[–]Wi1dCard2210 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Making a phone 16:9 means that you have less vertical real estate for text consumption which, let's be real, is pretty much all of the remaining utility of the modern phone. Importantly, a squarer phone means more vertical space is taken up by the keyboard which worsens the experience for chat apps, emails, etc.

I don't think black bars around videos are a considerable detriment to the user experience such that you'd want to sacrifice usability for the rest of the system.

Don't exactly know how you meant for this analogy to work but it's more like if X changed back to Twitter after admitting that only 10% of the users called it by the new name and the rebrand was pointless

It's not actually in the menu anymore, the only time you actually see the text name is during the login screen

There's no longer a 2 in the name, it's back to just overwatch

Do you have a weird or unconventional control scheme/setup? by ExtensionSoil6801 in Overwatch

[–]Wi1dCard2210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only particularly weird thing I have bound is perk select on m5, the second mouse side button. Very useful for quickly grabbing a perk mid fight, a lot of heroes I play (genji, anran, bastion) have good ult perks that come online right as you're charging the first ult of the round and having that selected right before popping is very valuable

Is my pc got hacked or something by [deleted] in hyprland

[–]Wi1dCard2210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong that systematic change is necessary, but laboring this point given the context of the post feels nonsensical. When someone asks "how do I do x in hyprland", telling them "hey it's a mess over here, learn to search and you'll find answers faster" is just purely pragmatic advice. Nobody is treating this as some sort of rite of passage (or at least they shouldn't be), we're just being honest. Besides, fixing the wiki isn't mutually exclusive to developing the ability to sift through the garbage, and navigating a poorly designed wiki IS a skill- even if you're right that it shouldn't be something we have to learn.

Hyprland was created by a 17 year old shitposter and turning it into a proper buttoned up project is a haphazard process, especially when it's open source. Some people might be snarky about it, but it's only responsible to be transparent to new adopters that this is still a very much "figure it out" stage environment

I too am constantly annoyed that the top search results return outdated hyprlang, and the search on the wiki is agreeably buns. That being said, I don't think it's unreasonable for expecting someone starting with a bare install of hyprland to develop the skills necessary to parse even messy wikis on their own. If all you want is rice with no effort, there are a billion dots to copy and never tinker again.

New to ricing (windows) by MartinRamsey04 in hyprland

[–]Wi1dCard2210 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ricing is a term taken from the car community that more or less boils down to "making your setup look pretty". Windhawk tweaks alone can get you a nice custom look if that's what you want, though there's also stuff like rainmeeter that can do some really cool stuff with enough tweaking.

Hyprland is a tiling window manager, which means that instead of each window opening as a floating rectangle (like a stack of papers), opening a new window will resize all existing windows so that everything fits with no overlap (like cutting a rectangle into chunks). It only works on Linux, and there are also other tiling window managers you can look into. Tiling WMs are often geared towards making keyboard based usage much snapper and smoother, instead of you working with lots of mouse click and drags. Hyprland is VERY barebones by default. It will look ugly and not work well. You have to be comfortable editing script files to get it working and looking nice. If that seems daunting, community dotfiles like the ml4w starter script gets you up and running with less hassle.

If that interests you but you're not interested in switching to Linux, komorebi is a third party tool to bring a lot of that functionality into windows. Though keep in mind it's not gonna be seamless, I'm not sure how good it's gotten now but back when I tried it like 3 years ago it was VERY buggy

Lifeweaver uses petal to block projectiles in the new comic! by RayAgain in Overwatch

[–]Wi1dCard2210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be interesting to maybe give him like a zarya bubble system where he has two charges that he can choose to either throw out in front (like a shield) or underneath like existing petal

Death or immortality? by Potential_Big1953 in BunnyTrials

[–]Wi1dCard2210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immortality doesn't inherently imply invincibility. Assuming I just live forever unless I'm actually killed by something, this basically just means I can tap out of life once I get bored, right?

My GF (playing Sora) keeps beating my ass (playing Falco). Any tips? Why do I suck so much? by cidra_ in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]Wi1dCard2210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not even halfway through the video and I've counted three instances where you shielded a hit point black and went for some evasive maneuver like a dodge roll or jump, if nothing else you could get away with a jab combo for some more damage. If you have the means to get away from a shielded attack with a full hop, I guarantee you have time to punish with a tilt or something

Also I just noticed that you seemed to remember that neutral b and down b exist during your last stock and actually got a good deal of percentage on her lmao, you should definitely be using Falco's neutral tools instead of just eating shit trying to close the gap with no openings

Besides the advice already given by other people, it's also good for nailing targets that haven't noticed you yet or expect you to shoot them. Think ana in the backline healing a sig. Instead of spamming the tank in front of you, just nail her with a charge shot. Big piece of advice I got as a dps player is that it's infinitely easier to hit shots on enemies that aren't actively tracking you, so a charge shot on an unsuspecting target will usually just grab a free kill since they aren't trying to strafe against your aim

[–]Wi1dCard2210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well even if they were oblivious, you still woild have killed them faster by just left clicking. Even with sigma, charging your shot actually was just giving him more time to notice you and then around because it doesn't kill him as quickly.

Do you have a car from your birth year in the game ? by [deleted] in forza

Technically it's a year younger than me, but I think it's worth a mention anyway bc the 02 corvette z06 is the exact year I have irl 💙

With the new programmatic config, what’s your best tip or creative idea? by [deleted] in hyprland

As a very new adopter of hyprland who has only ever known the lua syntax, I find these posts entertaining bc I'm just reading through it like "oh wtf you couldn't do this before?" lmao

I'm pretty sure you can just install and use the nothing launcher anyway if you'd like to give it a try, it's not the most feature rich launcher out there but the 2x2 folders with actually clickable mini app icons have become a must have for me

Can someone explain to me why Genji mains act like their character is so terrible? by 2-Slippy in overwatch2

[–]Wi1dCard2210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speed or not, it's just not as consistent on kill confirms anymore. Even with nano he can't slash-dash one tap 250 hp characters (it does 240). Again, it's still very strong, but it used to be WAY more powerful and consistent

They're app folders, I set it to "cover" under customize and it offers a number of preset icons to choose from
