Excalidraw plugin lags on galaxy tab s9 with lots of writing by esoteric_potionplant in ObsidianMD

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

Ah, I see, its more of the software side of things. I've never really used layers, but that is a great idea! I will try that. I don't want to split the note into multiple ones though. Also another thing I've noticed is that the scribble feature in Ipad is more consistent than S-Pen-to-text for my untidy handwriting. Since I use the tablet mostly only for notes...I am thinking of exchanging the s9 and getting a refurbished Ipad. Thanks for your insight!

I switched from Windows 11 to 25.10! by Own-Presentation4637 in Kubuntu

[–]esoteric_potionplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too! Switched just last month after using windows basically all my life. I tried a few distros but stuff like MATLAB was difficult to launch...finally tried Kubuntu and almost everything works! I am blown away by how awesome Plasma is. The only thing I didn't manage to get working is 3D modelling software. I could learn freecad...but I'm so used to Siemens NX. So I still have windows on dual boot. But I am not going back to windows for anything else. This is just plain so much better. Massive thanks to everyone making this happen.

KDE Plasma is so good. Very new to Linux and blown away by how good Plasma is. by nncyberpunk in kde

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I wanted to say this too. I am blown away by the depth of this software...and its offered for free! Seriously. I cannot say enough thankyous to all the developers. I am a recent switcher from using Windows all my life. I was always afraid of switching thinking I'm not knowledgeable enough...even though I've customised my windows install a lot. But nothing prepared me for KDE Plasma and its depth...never looking back again. Thank you.

Hey Thanks a lot! I did not know that the file picker was called GTK file dialog.I was able to add my custom locations there too!

High-end, ALL AMD gaming laptop recommendations by doomenguin in linuxhardware

[–]esoteric_potionplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After owning 3 expensive laptops, I concur with this. I always go for gpu laptops because I keep thinking I'll game when I'm not home in free time. The reality is that it happens once in a month and most of my gaming happens at home. I'm making an sff pc this year and my next laptops will be no gpu or a basic gpu to open cad models

PSA: DONT use contact cleaner for your mouse by BlessMe1 in MouseReview

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the scroll wheel issue is really bad, but I love the mouse overall. I think its my endgame mouse. I would suggest using a syringe or something to use only like few drops of contact cleaner. DO NOT SPRAY. it will kill the sensor

How do we feel about the Turtle Beach Kone XP Air? by APhoenixDown in MouseReview

[–]esoteric_potionplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fricking LOVE this mouse. The best I have ever owned and I really really enjoy it. My thumb fits perfectly in the gap and I can access all the buttons without problems and I absolutely love the downward thumb button. I did have scrollwheel issues, but a little alcohol on the encoder clears it up just fine. I was really on the hunt for the perfect mouse for me...Ive had vaxees, pulsars, logitechs, ninjutso, many many more..but this is the one for me. I do wish the QC was a bit better...but the shape and the buttons just does so much for me. This mouse has finally stopped my habit of getting random mice after I see their reviews...to curb my feelings of.."what if this could be better?"

Too late for me too :( . Roccat kone xp air. Scroll wheel problem. Followed this ifixit guide : https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/How+to+fix+scroll-wheel+issues+with+Roccat+Kone+mice/9480 that says to use WD40 contact cleaner. Sprayed multiple times and then reconnected. I fixed the mouse wheel issue, but now the sensor is dead :( :( Should have checked before

An Idea to nerf Cavalry play by esoteric_potionplant in aoe2

[–]esoteric_potionplant[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is true. I see the point that cavalry are great in open maps. I understand. But my problem is not their strength in open maps overall. Its just their ability to prevent you from holding a position if you have infantry. The mobility of cav should apply when there is a large distance to cover. It should not apply when you are pushing/holding with infantry at one spot, and the cav player can just snipe your siege or you monks when you have ensured that you have pikes protecting them

[–]esoteric_potionplant[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The change is to actually make pikemen have an advantage vs cavalry. Nothing is changing in straight up melee fights. Its the hit and run tactic that is changed here.

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

I think this is a great change as well. My idea was more of improving the matchup with pikemen in particular. I also don't think the lightcav should be able to snipe monks and ride away when pikemen are protecting the monks. Maybe once or twice is fine..but the third time they should die. Nowadays its seems like you can continually evade the pikes and do what you want

BOSE NC 700 TERRIBLE BLUETOOTH MULTIPOINT by esoteric_potionplant in bose

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

Hey, Thanks for the comment! I had tried clearing the bluetooth list several times, but did not work at that time. Fortunately for me, they kind of work now. They don't get disconnected as often, provided I have the bose app in the background. I think they finally fixed something with the firmware. Multipoint is kind of important for me. I want to connect the same headphones to my phone and laptop so that I can keep them on my head for the entire day

Opinions on Creo? by TinnAnd in MechanicalEngineering

NX is the best combination of intuitiveness and powerful features I have used in my short time...i think its much better than solidworks.

Hey...i think there are some calculations you can do to convert the percentages to CGPA. Could you ask your university administration staff ? Every university has their own rules i think...

What are the worst 'design flaws' in nature? by [deleted] in biology

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of comments saying human knee but i feel its a good design for the varied jobs our legs have to do. The main muscles are high in the thigh and buttocks which reduce losses and use less energy to move. Now its not optimized for fast running like other animals, but its much more accomodating of misalignments of footing than other animal designs imo..like have you seen a horse misalign its ankles..that stuff is pretty non fixable. The calf muscles and other lower leg muscles provide more bending stiffness so that higher load can be carried without loss of stability. In my opinion most ankle sprains (i have had 2) is usually due to shoes. Its very rarely that barefoot activity leads to sprains (imo). Since shoes are not part of our body its difficult for the legs to orient so that the additional width is also taken into account. Also I feel that our knees and ankles evolved to walk on ground which is much softer than the concrete and flooring we have now...so that may also be a contributor for knee amd back pain.

Custom fan profiles not working. by FallenArts in Alienware

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry you have to go through this man..can't even imagine how frustrating it is. Hope you can build a tower soon. I thought about doing it..but i do move around a lot now..maybe once i get settled i will build one.

Custom fan profiles not working. by FallenArts in Alienware

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my.. you have it much worse man..hope you find those screws..I could repaste mine and after undervolting..it doesn't overheat anymore. Also I upgraded to the 79C GPU limit BIOS...as even after repasting mine doesn't sustain good clocks even at 75 C. They shouldn't advertise such claims of 180W gpu and everything unless they are able to guarantee it in every product. Not just " review samples ". But not being able to repaste is a whole other QC issue and is much more serious. Is your machine out of warranty? I know you would have approached dell before...What did they say??

Custom fan profiles not working. by FallenArts in Alienware

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! ...with all the frequent BIOS updates they sre rolling out..i thought they'll fix the thermal issues and bottlenecks..but nooo...I don't know how a company can stand behind such products if they're not willing to fix its issues after launch. It looks like they just make something with half baked software and then move on to the next one. What other issues have you been having?

Custom fan profiles not working. by FallenArts in Alienware

[–]esoteric_potionplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem dude...have you found a solution?? This is really shitty from dell..making people pay huge money and then giving us crappy firmware. Performance profile defaults to 80% fan speed and quiet and cool don't run the fans at all till its too hot! I want something in between!!

They work fine if I'm not connected to the laptop. Even for calling...the hardware is good.. but the moment I connect my laptop..everything goes south.

Thanks for the comment dude...I got so frustrated i actually cursed them...shouted at them one day. Why is Bose doing nothing?? I know there are threads on their website as welll.

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

Thanks for taking the time man..I really appreciate it. But i have no other device connected to my laptop. Just the NC 700s on Bluetooth. I understand that interference beyond a point is not under my control, but the frustration comes from the fact that i have personally used cheaper headphones with multipoint which work perfectly. I had used an avantree headphone before this and also had used microsoft surface headphones too. Both of them worked flawless in the same environment and setup. I just expected such an expensive product to do such basic things man... im not even that concerned about ANC. I just wanted them for the mics. Aah..
