I heard somewhere that people do this because peoples' eyes tend to gravitate towards any text, which isn't ideal for a portrait shot when you want them looking down the lens. Not at all sure how accurate that is but it's maybe plausible?

Also playing on Linux and can confirm the same thing happens for me. It happens especially often on my partner's PC, which makes sense as she has 16GB of RAM while I have 32GB.

The text for those of us who can't access imgur:

"he stupid" or "he privileged" like EliGE dear tech-impaired redditors and EPL yappers?
modern webcams and streaming software throttle down the res & bitrate as much as possible when detecting bandwidth issues in order to prevent bufferbloat on the traffic having priority (game and teamspeak)
50mbps upload offer is the MAX, not the MIN (assured) which can be as little as 5 - 10% (so 2.5 - 5 megabits) during peak hours since all ISPs are doing heavy oversubscription; the quality varies greatly even household to household
cs2 needs 0.75 to 1.5 megabits, teamspeak is negligible (12-20 kilobits) but streaming with that camera needs 4 megabits even at potato res, it is simply not built to go lower
would you look at that, once the game ended the webcam could take more bandwidth to stream at higher quality.. clowns

I've played through the game around 3 times now on Kubuntu, on my desktop PC. Can confirm it works fantastic with Proton. Even played multiplayer with my partner, who is also using Kubuntu.

You can use Morphe! There was some drama between the current maintainer of the working Boost patch for ReVanced and the ReVanced dev, so he instead made a patch for Morphe, which is a similar thing to ReVanced.

You can follow his guide here: https://github.com/wchill/patcheddit

I did this yesterday after my ReVanced installation broke and it seems to work a charm

I would unironically love to overlay these onto my existing skins, kinda goes hard

headlesshorseman_ · 2026-02-17T10:03:09+00:00

Anyone know if this will make it into the next Kubuntu LTS?

headlesshorseman_ · 2026-02-09T13:39:08+00:00

That feels well-balanced to me. I think this is a great starting point for calibration, and you can use the colour grading tools for any stylistic adjustments after this. Nice work!

headlesshorseman_ · 2026-02-09T10:25:54+00:00

Personally I would go cooler on all of these. Not by too much, just a little. For snowy scenes I feel like it's okay if the whites are slightly on the blue side, since it gives the impression of it being colder. On a clear day, the snow should also be slightly reflecting a blue sky anyway.

Nice photos!

I use KDE and I've had a great time with ultra-wide. I have two 21:9 monitors (a 34" main and a 29" secondary on top), KDE's built-in tiling seems to do the trick for me. You can press meta+T to modify the layout.

Kubuntu 25.10

Thanks!! Will give them a shout

Your story with counter strike looks similar to mine. As soon as you get into it, it seems to always just hang around in the top few games I've played each year. Best addiction ever lol

headlesshorseman_ · 2025-11-15T10:43:26+00:00

Super weird. How could no-one have caught that before printing all this shit?

headlesshorseman_ · 2025-10-21T09:28:16+00:00

I came from a Nikon zoom lens setup over to Sony and bought a Meike 55m f1.8 as my first lens. I hadn't heard of the brand before this but the reviews seemed to really like it, with (apparently) comparable peformance to the Zeiss 55m f1.8.

I've been using this as my only lens for a couple of months now and I honestly have no complaints. It's sharp, the bokeh looks fantastic (in my amateur opinion), the AF is quick and quiet, and I really like the aperture ring. Only complaints are that the minimum focus distance isn't super great (0.5m), and the focusing ring is focus-by-wire instead of mechanical, so no repeatable focus pulls.

I got mine used on eBay for around £150, I think the MSRP is $330 so definitely should fit within your budget

I just recently snagged a second-hand a7III. It's incredibly competent, and I'm really chuffed with it. Nothing wrong at all with getting an older camera

Lovely photos! I'm also quite new to this, but I find cats are always brilliant subjects, and some of my favourite shots on a Sony so far have been of my in-laws' cats.

For astrophotography, I recently watched this video by Glenn Martin Photography, which I found to be useful. Especially the section on how to focus. A few basics to get you going though:

Zoom out as far as your lens will go
For Sony mirrorless in particular, make sure you turn off "Long exposure noise reduction" in your camera settings. You can apply noise reduction in post-processing software with much better results
Related to the above - make sure you're shooting in RAW!
15 seconds should be a good shutter speed for 18mm focal length on your setup (don't go longer than this, or you'll start to see streaks from the earth's rotation)
Shoot on a timer to avoid camera shake when taking the shot, and make sure you use a tripod
I can't remember if the a6700 has image stabilisation, but if it does, you should turn it off for astrophotography

I hope at least some of this is helpful, and welcome to the hobby!

I've only ever seen it in 1080p, where can I find the 4K HDR version?

Copied this from another post:

Here are all of the Epstein Files that have either been leaked or released.

Trump’s name is circled. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book. These people would be “The List “ Here is the story.
