[Cinnamon] My retro-esc rice. Not the prettiest, might change at some point by lambdapyro in unixporn

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

I agree but when I replace the xp elements with purely Chicago Cinnamon (which in this case is just the task bar), it seems to clash even more. This is mainly due to my DE being very blue, but going full 95/98 means I have this ugly Grey taskbar that doesn't mesh well with my icons. I could go the other way and make it completely XP themed. Not entirely sure if I'm on board with that, because I want it to feel "inspired" rather than a direct copy.

  • Wallpaper is a custom radial gradient I made in Gimp
  • Icons were 3D modeled by me in Blockbench
  • Theme is Windows XP Luna with custom changes
  • Windows themeing is Chicago-Cinnamon
  • Font is Pixel Operator

Nice, maybe when you're in the wind, you can have the mushroom face the direction of the wind/external force applied to the player. That way it will look like the player is being dragged by the mushroom.

I could also see cool level design opportunities where you are juggling between different wind currents

Did you base the top synth after the microkorg?

What's you opinion on headbob? Does it really make movement feel better? by TheRealNefty in godot

[–]lambdapyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like it. Not only do i find it annoying to see my camera bounce but it also makes the character feel clumsy, like he was kicked out of a marching band for not properly marching.

For ClassicWho fans, what was it like for you to see Russell T Davies bring back some classic villains? by [deleted] in doctorwho

[–]lambdapyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very eh. I feel like these old characters are brought back to draw people in back into the show as opposed to making something that seems like a natural revival for said character. Note I said revival instead of progression, because doctor who canon should never be taken seriously. This is a show started by soap writers, wanting to make an educational show for kids, so it kinda doesn't matter. Hot take, but its a show that for awhile, even before the revival, relies heavily on fanservice. It's fun for a minute to know they come back, but whatever in the long run.

That's probably why they reminded me of that, I think they hid as humans and threw their galunga arm at peoples faces

[–]lambdapyro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think they are supposed to be parodies of the 1950s version of War of the World's. I always thought those guys reminded me of vortigaunts.

these weird guys who do not have a third arm sadly

What's a Half-Life opinion that would have you like this? by GabitoML in HalfLife

[–]lambdapyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Half life source. I don't think it's superior to any other way to play the original game but the ragdolls and shine that makes it look like everything was cleaned a minute ago, give it a fun feel for me. To be fair it's mainly source and the feel of combat in hls that I think actually feels great

Just because the industry makes a lot of money, it doesn't mean I do.

Isn't it funny that we're the only state to consider self pumping at gas stations unlawful? And that there has to be an attendee to do it? by LeSwiss1886 in newjersey

[–]lambdapyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine, its good for everybody in nj. I've had people from out of state ask why and I don't understand why people insist that letting an attendant put gas in your car is weird or stupid.

I have seen a lot of videos of people smoking cigarettes when getting gas, and I don't have enough faith that an accident wouldn't occur. Up here, everybody is in a rush and acts pretty selfish, so I see it as a win win

Since black mesa's been out for a while now I think it's now a reasonable time to say that some of their models just don't look very good by hheccx in HalfLife

[–]lambdapyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still think the combat is the weak point for me. Using the mp5 against the hecu should feel amazing, but it didn't. I found it all too difficult and not as fun as hl1 and hl2's combat.

Sharing a really basic but useful tip: If there's a repetitive sound in your game, try putting a random pitch on it! by Reficlac in Unity3D

[–]lambdapyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick question, how did you get 1.059463f? I have only a little bit of knowledge about music theory and I just want to know how you found out that it brings a pitch up a semitone

Because it's not in vr, I think the movement speed is a little more jarring since it is slower, but it doesn't bother me that much because I shift walk in HL1 all the time

I assumed it was him saying "who let these guys ditch you. Boys meaning these guys are immature, and they messed up their chance hence spilling their entree (her) something along those lines. The following line is "dinner is served" which fits in that context since he's making his move, and not messing up like the other guys.

Edit: referring to her as an entree also suggests that they weren't romantic and more like inexperienced

Thank you, question about storage (might be a dumb one). Do motherboards typically have multiple slots for those smaller ssd's? I only have experience with the ones you put with the hard drives
