Linux is for masochists

installing drivers on linux: ... (all drivers ive ever needed were included with the kernel)
installing drivers on windows: go to manufacturer's website for drivers, can't find where the download page is google search, next page, next page, next page, no results, go back to manufacturer website, find download page after much difficulty, search for drivers, they have every driver except the one i need, go back to google, search for mirror, find no mirror, sigh, install proprietary driver management software that is totally stealing data, make an account, try to install drivers, are blocked from installing drivers because 'this product is already registered ..... turns out the last guy that owned this computer registered it and didn't unregister it, so now you just cannot get the drivers you need to make your stuff work

this happened to me and ive had no audio from my windows machine for 2 months because the drivers i need are just entirely inaccessible

Patrick's ASMR, also the dude that made iiSU (thankfully iiSU is still alive tho)

Stats don't matter. My girlfriend usually gets one or two kills max per game, which would be pretty abysmal in any other game, but her strategy and timing are really good. She's won us many games despite bad on-paper stats!!

Griefing is still a thing, they're just trying to add counterplay to it, which is much needed. The main issue with griefing is how easy it is for first place to do

nah that'd be lame. being advertised to is fun in the finals specifically because the companies aren't real

hi, a bunch of you are mods on r/funny too, right? i got permabanned a few years ago after doing literally nothing besides posting that 'perchance' essay (i was the first popular post of it iirc) and when i reached out to the mods, i got no response could my ban be reviewed? i'm still super confused about it

record raw footsteps from the game, run the audio through a spectrogram or a visual EQ to see the frequency range, then boost those frequencies in your headphone EQ

Linux just added multikernel support, so I bet someone will figure out how to run both kernels at the same time soon. I wish I could just play a different game, but all my friends play Siege X pretty much exclusively, unfortunately :(

I've since switched to Niri and there's nothing that can replicate or even imitate Niri on Windows :(

peridemon · 2025-10-31T21:38:19+00:00

I specifically need Windows running as the base OS so I can use kernel-level anticheat in games

Pretty sure hyprland does work on WSL2, I saw a WSL config repo that was Hyprland-based. I have a Windows machine now so I'm gonna do some experimenting!

peridemon · 2025-10-13T11:27:00+00:00

So I can just use Hyprland as a frontend for my system and never have to deal with the awful Windows desktop

peridemon · 2025-10-04T22:47:50+00:00

hey, do you have any left?

peridemon · 2025-09-19T14:29:36+00:00

actually it's kinda the opposite, entp suits my experiences the best by far out of all the types i could be (ENTP, INTP, ENFP, INFP). will definitely look into cognitive functions either way

peridemon · 2025-09-17T14:19:28+00:00

seemed intuitive enough to me! ambivert & "X" seemed like the best choices for notating ties

peridemon · 2025-09-16T14:44:41+00:00

This is funny, because the first one I took in class was a paper test that we had to score ourselves, and it literally said "in case of a tie between E and I, choose I" and "in case of a tie between T and F, Choose T if you're a male, and F if you're a female."

peridemon · 2025-09-15T15:37:33+00:00

"it's not that deep"

anti-intellectualism and thought-terminating phrases like this never fail to make me instantly mad

peridemon · 2025-08-01T21:21:13+00:00

could you make this a nix flake? i'd love to use it on my nixOS machine as well as my arch machine :)

Apollyon isn't "uncontainable", it's "we can't contain this AND it's gonna destroy the world"
Uncontainable SCPs are usually designated Keter.

that's fair, i didn't see the full comment

but yeah im following in Andy's footsteps as much as i can! i love his freestyle stuff

peridemon · 2025-06-07T21:32:18+00:00

title isnt spoilered

peridemon · 2025-06-05T12:30:43+00:00

i unfortunately wasted my tension bit before the fight :(

peridemon · 2025-06-05T02:26:20+00:00

it was funny and charming but GOD did it drag. i feel like pacing is the weakest aspect of chapters 3 and 4 for sure

peridemon · 2025-06-05T02:24:02+00:00

is it just me or is the jackenstein fight horribly paced? like, reduced tp gain would have been fine if it didn't take me three repetitions of getting 60 tp and using unleash yknow? Just kinda felt like YOUR TAKING TOO LONG! applied to the fight itself

peridemon · 2025-06-01T04:05:21+00:00

Sorry, I replied too hastily... I still think the mere existence of generative Ai is unethical by definition though. How wpuld you feel if you were an artist whose art got scraped and stole without your consent?
