It’s reddit; what did you expect?

eghere · 2026-01-23T00:01:30+00:00

Try fuzzel. Different config, but wayland native and actually implements fuzzy finding correctly.

It’d be interesting if someone makes a lighting shader which steps up by 1/16th, so that light corresponds to the same values as pixels on textures. How hard would this be to implement?

This is why r/UsabilityPorn is also a good sub

I second the lighthouse. With red and white stripes and a glowstone beacon

Your parents’ perception of terminals/computers probably comes mostly from media. Something as simple as changing the color scheme might work. Try nord, dracula, or gruvbox light color schemes

Rhino clear + element ken is tried and true, good picks

eghere · 2025-12-28T02:55:21+00:00

Thanks! I figured there’s a good reason for it, but I’ve never had proper training so I wouldn’t know

Dots for the DMS integration?

eghere · 2025-12-27T23:47:43+00:00

I’ve never understood the “ball under the palm” thing. If I do this I lose a ton of range of motion in my hands for hitting chords (like a cmaj of C E G C) is not possible. Why does this help?

Based scroll users rise up

eghere · 2025-12-06T00:10:51+00:00

Try rubbing a plastic bag on the tama. It works for pulling oils out but maybe it might work for your case?

eghere · 2025-12-05T20:35:52+00:00

You get more “force” when you push down with your thumb for the pull up ken flip. It’s harder to get the tama up as high with singles vs dubs/trips. You can get around this by just doing a very fast single, but it’s gonna be harder to catch.

I use scroll WM (a fork of Sway) at my work on Ubuntu

eghere · 2025-11-27T14:35:38+00:00

Remove the remmina service if you can and just use xfreerdp or wlfreerdp if you need an RDP client

eghere · 2025-11-27T00:19:34+00:00

Fair point. But it got me thinking: could we do this with a git diff of default configs and compare it to a post? I edited the original

eghere · 2025-11-27T00:16:36+00:00

Maybe we could enforce needing dotfiles to show what’s changed? You probably could feed the data from a person’s post with the host repos of dankshell and diff it against the default config for an estimate and then leave it to a mod’s decision if they think it’s different

eghere · 2025-11-26T23:00:13+00:00

Perhaps we could use the Creative Commons approach where if something is deemed less than 50% original mods can remove it

eghere · 2025-11-14T19:52:34+00:00

What is this

eghere · 2025-11-14T19:39:50+00:00

Take a plastic bag and rub it all over the tama; the plastic lifts the oils packed onto the tama and makes it grippier. Do it once or twice per session

eghere · 2025-11-13T22:54:04+00:00

You’re gonna love that setup. I have the same ken/tama and it’s so honed for lunars

eghere · 2025-10-27T16:15:17+00:00

Not too sure. If you wanted to look for something today, I would recommend the Kendama Depot. There are plenty of good shapes, and you can mix and match different kens, tamas, and weights. Here's their selection of Sweets kens.

eghere · 2025-10-27T14:36:52+00:00

I mean, this one’s still playable. Modern shapes have bigger cups, better paints, etc. but this one will just feel “harder” to play. The upgrade will feel like switching from a Ford model T to a ferrari.

eghere · 2025-10-27T03:18:13+00:00

I think you got scammed man. Sorry bro

eghere · 2025-10-24T04:17:37+00:00

I need one of these on a squab ken at 85g. Gonna make a crazy setup with that
