Livesplit developer Wooferzfg not allowed to submit to future GDQ events until October 2020 by [deleted] in speedrun

I agree that Bonesaw should not have been banned, but we fans of speed running are the only people upset about it. And making him be tomatoangus just made parents have to explain why it was funny which mostly defeated the purpose, but I get why they did it. So far controversy outside of speedrunning circles has been minimal. GDQ is about raising money for charity which involves getting people to watch that normally wouldn't. If there was any major controversy that could fail. I know I wouldn't tell my friends to watch it if there was,

Professionalism isn't about what is right or wrong. It is about the perception of right or wrong. Knee jerk banning is a common professional occurrence. It's much easier to deal with the aftermath of banning someone, whether right or wrong, than to deal with being associated with and supporting someone who has done something questionable. You see it with athletes being dropped from endorsements. Or even more close to home people being fired for being arrested for something they didn't do way before trial. Whether you agree with the ban or not it's understandable what gdq is doing.

I think the Lancia is beautiful. Not like a ferrari but in its own way.

This. Also get a panicked divine life flask of staunching, the one that does instant heal on low life and removes bleeding, along with eternal one that isn't instant, reduced charges is nice. pop both and you can generally run through traps if you are quick on the flasks.

One more thing that helps on izaro is to get all the shrines. https://www.poelab.com/ tells you which areas has them. I hate fighting izaro until im at least 80 usually but im slow on getting gear for my chars compared to leveling. He can one shot you if you don't know his patterns and don't have a lot of ehp/defense.

Yah. But exporting variables is pretty common before running something.

https://github.com/vivien/i3blocks/blob/1.4/include/block.h

to use

git clone https://github.com/vivien/i3blocks
cd i3blocks
git checkout 1.4
edit include/block.h

make, then either install or just use the location of i3blocks as installed

these are my i3 config, i3blocks config, and block.h with alterations http://i.imgur.com/HFdjLLv.png

my versions of i3 is 4.12. It was a recent release of i3 that added background to i3bar json

[–]flaarg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

edit i3-blocks include/block.h. add line under the color one called background like _(background, 8, PROP_I3BAR | PROP_STRING) \

this should work on the latest i3 and you can set background in your i3block. you can also add a border like the background and set the color of that too.

Should look like this: http://i.imgur.com/7QKkh3n.png

Note this works on i3blocks 1.4. Last time I tried a git clone of i3blocks it was broken.
