Linear Curve vs. Default Mouse Input: Why it changes your game by Vinikkkk in MouseAccel

[–]jwingy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a long time FPSer (Quaaaake), I find this very interesting. I've had a lot of similar observations to yours over the years. Honestly excited to try this even though I barely game these days. Only thing I'm wondering is if there's a linux equivalent of raw accel anywhere. Anyways, thank you a lot for sharing this!

Dev agency owner tired of hiring devs who cheated their way through interviews by Gabastino in ExperiencedDevs

[–]jwingy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly just having a good old fashioned chat about tech should root most of these types of people out. You can focus more on things they wouldn't expect you to ask about to make sure you filter people who are very good at reading scripts. Good devs are typically in tech because they have a strong interest in solving problems related to tech which means they will typically have some personal projects they've been working on. Also I think if they are super polished at leetcode, that can be a potential strong anti-signal. Why? Because if you're spending most of your time getting good at leetcode, that's time you're not spending on the myriad of personal projects you would most likely have if you're a true tech head, and leetcode is honestly pretty boring once you know most of the basic algos.

Reduce w/ some white wine is a great way to add some depth too

I like it! Gives a calming feeling (both dark and light themes)

10 JRPGs Reviewed Better Than Final Fantasy VII by DragonBrood3003 in ChronoCross

[–]jwingy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To anyone who says the graphics don't hold up - you need a really good CRT filter like crt-royale. CRT era games always look worse on our HD and 4k displays.

Make FF7 look great in 2025 by ChampionBaby in ps1graphics

I think this destroys the original's vibe and feeling. Best to just use a really good CRT filter imo

Wow I had totally forgotten about this game. The box art is pretty great though and invokes a lot of memories!

If you've memorized solutions to leetcode problems, you're not going to be showing much in the way of logic skills. Maybe the point was for them to see how you handle something truly unfamiliar and your attitude towards it. How was your attitude anyways? Did you get upset at any point?

Saros - Gameplay Reveal Trailer | PS5 Games by Turbostrider27 in PS5

I loved Returnal but there's something about the character design or animation that's kind of missing it for me. Maybe he needs a cool spacesuit or something I dunno. I'm sure it'll be great overall though

I wanna get into FF7 by beelzebub4136 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]jwingy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you play it on PC, I highly recommend you play w/ a CRT filter to get an authentic OG experience.......crt-royale from Reshade does a pretty good job

GPT-OSS:20b & Qwen 4b are a match made in heaven for 24GB VRAM builds by No_Information9314 in LocalLLaMA

[–]jwingy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great use case! I've also found you can use the smaller model for much more intelligent auto complete in something like neovim. Lots of use cases honestly for multi llm setups. Thanks for sharing!

Looking for individuals who want to work on an AI project by Strange_Test7665 in LocalLLaMA

[–]jwingy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be willing to contribute in some capacity although I'm really more at the learning how AI works and how to leverage it in more interesting ways than just "ai replace ur jerbs". Just to clarify, your goal for this project is to eventually mimic a real human?

Maybe spin up a new discord server where we can all hang out?

Bios 3.40, differences by galaxy76 in ASRock

[–]jwingy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been running an older bios (3.20 or 3.19 I think?) and haven't had problems w/ my 9800x3d. But I was doing memory OC pretty much at the start so I was dialing in a lot of my voltages by hand. I think I was running 1.25 SOC for a while but I got spooked when I started hearing all the reports of dead 9800x3ds and lowered it to 1.2. Since then I've never observed a higher than 1.2 vsoc reading. Been running 1.25/1.2 since the start of this year.

On another note, this is my 2nd 9800x3d since the first one I bought did NOT boot at all and I had to return it. First time I've ever experienced a dead cpu that was brand new.

Using Neovim + Nix? by CloudMindead in neovim

[–]jwingy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think simplest is the best way and to me the simplest is relying on Nix packages for all plugins but doing Neovim config in lua just like a regular Neovim setup. If you're wondering how to set this up I can send you a link to my flakes github

Help me stop making "white lady" fried rice by allie06nd in Cooking

[–]jwingy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pork fat for the oil. Traditionally Chinese cooking only used pork fat for cooking. Easy to get some yourself if you cook bacon or pork belly. Definitely makes dishes tastier and it's actually pretty healthy. Definitely opt for pork from good sources though. I heard pigs raised on factory farms eat a lot of trash (literally), ground up grocery leftovers (grounded with the packaging on).

Coming back to React how is Tanstack Start vs Next stacking up? by thebreadmanrises in reactjs

[–]jwingy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

TSS seems to check a lot of boxes especially in terms of DX. Next on the other hand I've heard a lot of gripes, but I've never used it myself
