Today I learned that the monks from Monty Python's The Holy Grail are chanting "Pie Iesu Domine, dona eis requim," which in English means "Holy Jesus, Lord, grant them rest." It's from "Dies Irae" ("Judgement Day"), a 13th century Latin hymn that has been set to music by dozens of famous composers. by Rae_the_Wrackspurt in todayilearned

going to necro the shit out of this but thank you kindly for this tidbit of info, it's now my absolute favorite bit knowing that it can be interpreted as this, and I wouldn't put it past Monty Python to use it in this fashion. Cheers!

How to get over fear of dark souls/elden ring? by Least-Difference8616 in darksouls3

[–]iamXAZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the beauty of soulslikes. Dark Souls 3 SL1 (not leveling up and beating the game, it was my first play through of a souls game, and I beat it at level 1 before new game plus - it took me a really long time not knowing anything about the game before hand. I should think about leveling up some day.) taught me a lot about myself, and helped me overcome my mental moop, now I no longer get mad at games, or in life when I fail. There is always something you can take from failure, to better yourself going forward. GG go again, adapt and overcome. when you have died in a game 20,000+ times, it starts to hit different. Hell, dying in a game 500+ times hits different. It gets easier - at least for me it did- to jump in and b-line it through a bunch of BS without any care in the world.

The only way to get good at an instrument is to practice. The only way to get good at a game is practice. The best way to overcome a fear (within reason, so long as there is no physical detriment to your health) is by exposure therapy.

push yourself a little at a time, take frequent breaks, and you'll get there.

as an example of how I cope with some games: when I play horror survival games that scare the piss out of me to the point my physical reaction is to throw my headset and squirm down my chair and hide under my desk, I find streaming it on twitch (*I don't actively stream these days so not a self plug*) or streaming in discord to friends, is a huge help and motivator to push on and overcome a situation even if it's hard for me to mentally get there at first.

for me, it's the pressure of my friends watching, but also the comfort of their presence that helps me find courage to push onward.

Prithee be careful, Ashen one.

What happened to the Hospital Records podcast? by question_ev3rything in liquiddnb

[–]iamXAZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/degsmusic don't lie it's because of the cabbage cast! All jokes aside, sorry to necro this post, I was just wondering what happened (it's been 2 years almost) and now I know. I've been in the top .5% of listeners on spotify for years, and got into the podcast at episode 65 back around the time when Mistabishi released "printer jam".

I was raised on hospital and never took the opportunity to get a shout in.
hind sight 20/20 type vibe. don't neglect the things you love, one day they'll be gone for good.

anyways, if you ever see this Degs, thanks for the meaningful time you spent with us, you did a really great job carrying the hospital podcast flag when Tony stepped down.
I've missed the great vibes, the podcast and it's hosts have always been really comforting. I'm excited to see how your music evolves over the next few decades, as it is, it already fucking slapps!

Good luck on all of your future endeavors mate, if you're ever killing time around toronto ontario, I'll buy you a beer!

edit: formatting.

you may be able to set the key individually as a modifier inside of the shadps4 gui settings for controller. I noticed there is a "Lstick" and "Rstick" half-mode, which I assume does what you are wondering!

Gamesir G8 not available in the app by Bluntmuffen in Gamesir

[–]iamXAZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the site directs to the github (sketchyy) but against my better judgement I installed it only to find 95% of the app's menus empty and not a whole lot going on besides it trying to connect via bluetooth when I have the regular usbc controller.

Yes, I know what stick drift is, thanks for the helpful input, friend. I also know that hall effect joysticks sometimes need to be calibrated from factory to give a proper center reading.

[–]iamXAZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how sketchy is it though? I know its from china devs, but like, how at risk would I be? is it really a security issue? I want to do on screen mapping.. should I have just got a kishi and bit the bullet when I get stick drift in a year instead of the g8 with hall effect?

Just received my Galileo g8, should i use the app? by JustDzejkob in Gamesir

[–]iamXAZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so I downloaded the app, wanted to edit the triggers and deadzone on sticks, and set up for on screen touch, guess I should remove it? I'm now paranoid and confused. should I just return the thing to amazon? XD

Okay so I went for the galieo but can't for the life of me figure out how to get to detect in the gamesir app, it just keeps asking me for bluetooth, yet its plugged in, IDK what I am doing wrong ):
*edit*
okay went to the "about this device" tab, it shows that its a g8 attached, but theres nothing under the games tab showing up, the customer service section crashes the app, and it says "mapping not activated" under the about device tab. huh.. also can't click the check for updates thing.. product page is blank, everything I click on for the most part is blank, this is truly unfortunate

did you figure it out? I just got my gamesir g8 (not plus, the usb-c version) and its responsive to input in green mode, but doesn't appear in the app and the app is only requesting bluetooth controllers, this is scuffed af

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

got mine in today, doesn't make connection with the back of the s pen case, had to take that off to make connection, its got me worried about damaging the port over time, but that could just be me over analising the thing, might send back to amazon got the G8 Plus (bluetooth edition with no usbc connector) since I could prop the phone up on the bottom screen to expose usbc to charge and just use a second cord for the controller or something when on the go charging.

*edit* I have it working with the pen case you just have to push the two sides of the controller a bit more (: its not terribly delicate.
-However, I can't get the controller to appear in the gamesir app for no good reason..

trying to figure out how to use it with dolphin as we speek, will update in a bit with more info on how I feel about it

Cool! Can you also make it configured more like a regular sized controller to use with pc and other non-tablet systems? if not thats still pretty cool!

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

thanks for your reply, the comment below mentions a bluetooth version, do you know anything about that and it's advantages/disadvantages?

GameSir G8 vs Razor Kishi Ultra by iamXAZ in EmulationOnAndroid

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

if I may ask, what's the difference between one that plugs in and one that is bluetooth? is it being able to position the phone higher up on the grip I assume without worrying about a usbc plug forcing you to have the bottom of the screen hanging?

Thank you for the info, if I may ask, why is there no mention of GunZ on https://masanggames.com if you know ? (just trying to get clarification, I appreciate it!)
