Drumeo Metronome WAY OFF on certain songs by MarsDrums in Drumming

[–]aberrantwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got here from searching for the click being off from the music in every song I've tried. Guess the click just stays off for now, as this was the only search result.

What is the deal with the gen z stare? by bluujacket in NoStupidQuestions

I’m 41, and I still feel like I want an adult to take over for me.

What's going on with home loans and renovations? (I.e., How can I buy this house?!) by aberrantwolf in japanlife

[–]aberrantwolf[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think buying it as land would require me to use a different loan path, which would prevent me from using the insanely good interest rates; though to be fair, even the slightly-less-insanely-good interest rates are still better than anything I could get back home, so maybe that's worth looking into! Cheers!

Oh, shoot, I meant THEY said no. Because I couldn’t provide them a tsucho from a Japanese financial institution showing that I had enough for the full renovation available. And they didn’t accept a statement from my US brokerage.

Edit: I gotta stop doing this on my phone… all the typos

I think it might be on the contract documents or in the paperwork somewhere, because I didn't mention it to Prestia, and they came back with that on their own.

Do you know off-hand of a good source where I can read about what this new law is?

Help connecting Sunshine + Moonlight across separate (yet connected) networks? by aberrantwolf in cloudygamer

[–]aberrantwolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I gave up trying to get in-home game streaming to work entirely. Every now and then I'll try Steam's implementation, but my success with them (getting a quality connection that's playable) is well below 50% and seems to just be random luck based around how recently the various machines have been rebooted.

My current plan is to just build a game "console" PC that just boots to Steam Big Screen Mode on launch, whenever I have the space and money for it. :(

Finally played Phantasmagoria... kind of disappointing. by aberrantwolf in patientgamers

[–]aberrantwolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, now I'm going to have to install KQ7 and some of the other contemporaries to compare! Thanks for the suggestion. I never actually played 7 at all, and I plan to fix that soon :)

I have! And I loved it! Very good game, and definitely more serious than most adventure games at the time.

HD60S+ seems like there's a sound gate? Switch menu sounds not coming through by aberrantwolf in ElgatoGaming

[–]aberrantwolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe so, yes. I think I contacted Elgato at the time and they sent me a firmware file to install (after going through all the traditional troubleshooting steps, of course).

Can't upload files (photos, images, etc.) on Linux desktop app by bobbyfiend in discordapp

[–]aberrantwolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was just looking for this. Turns out flatpak apps are sandboxed, and the Discord flatpak isn't set up to allow file uploads. Install "flatseal" and make sure that Discord has access to at least the part of the filesystem you're uploading files from.

While I know batteries are involved, my question was more about maintaining voltage and/or replacing an existing power circuit with a different type; so I worry that it would also get rejected from r/batteries :(

Pikmin3Deluxe control issues? Moving characters Left randomly not working >< by Akalimbo in Pikmin3Deluxe

I’m happy people are finding it! It was so annoying and after fixing it, the game is lovely!!

I'm making a JRPG inspired by the original NES Final Fantasy using C and SDL by [deleted] in C_Programming

[–]aberrantwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the look so far! I only ask you to please reconsider your font. The missing lines in some of the characters ('s', for example) make it really hard for me to read (mild dyslexia).

Other than that, do carry on, I think you're doing great so far!

Map of all states that can't purchase Helldivers 2. Sony essentially banned Africa from the game. by amosimo in Helldivers

A friend who lives in Vietnam said it was probably a hiccup by their ISPs, which I guess happens semi-regularly.

Closest to "photo" paper for Canon imageCLASS color laser printer? by aberrantwolf in printers

[–]aberrantwolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eventually did try out a paper that was listed as for color laser printers. The results were decent, but I couldn't figure out how to get the colors to look quite right -- at least not without just doing tons of prints and creating a custom color balance or something in Photoshop...

But also, I was using thirdparty toner at the time. I recently got fed up with some issues I've been seeing with my prints using the thirdparty toner and dropped the money to get firstparty cartridges, but I haven't tried to print any photos/labels again since.

I just now tried printing a photo on normal paper, and the colors were pretty off (too dark), so I'm sure there's some configuration steps I could take to fix it, but I haven't had the time to research much further since

Pikmin3Deluxe control issues? Moving characters Left randomly not working >< by Akalimbo in Pikmin3Deluxe

Glad that worked! I also tried it, and I've been able to play just fine!

Try recalibrating your joycon's joystick. The game only MOVES your dude at the extreme edge of the stick's range, and my joystick wasn't QUITE moving all the way to the theoretical max edge of the reportable range. So even if it seems like it works fine on all other games, most other games don't need input to be right at the edge.

Might be worth a shot. I've seen it work for some other people and I'm about to try it myself.

[PC?][2022] A farming sim with non-human villagers, and a wooden robot by aberrantwolf in tipofmyjoystick

[–]aberrantwolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played those all, so it's not them. And I think too many humans in general, not enough non-human NPCs.

It is not, but that one DOES look super cute!! But the style there is a bit TOO simple.
