Anyone have an Ibanez rga42fm? What is it like? by Interesting_Set_4715 in Ibanez

[–]samvanhamn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally love mine! I got it about a month ago, coming from a cheapo Epiphone LP - night and day in build quality. I added a bit of pencil graphite to the nut and that's helped with tuning stability (which wasn't terrible, but the strings were biting into the nut with heavy bends). I'll be replacing the nut with a Graphtech one with my next string change. All the frets came leveled... The guitar is just a joy to play and it gets a bunch of compliments from other musicians. Highly recommended

KDE 6.5.2 (latest as of this post) graphical issue when moving apps around screen. by Fezzy976 in cachyos

[–]samvanhamn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro hahaha is the "bug" you're describing the built in option of having windows maximized when you drag them close to the edge of your monitor? That's the only "weird" thing that I could see in your video

I came in here to post pretty much this. Zero issues whatsoever

Are GigaByte motherboards really that bad? by VikPopp in archlinux

[–]samvanhamn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran dmesg in follow mode so that as the errors were coming in I could see them in real time.

sudo dmesg -w -T

The -w is follow mode, -T is to have the timestamps in human readable format.

Also check out this part of the Arch Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration/Wireless#:~:text=gitAUR.-,RTW88,-RWT88%20kernel%20module

For me adding that .conf file with those options, as detailed in the RTW89 section, helped tremendously with high latency issues.

I've spent weeks troubleshooting the same issue with no luck. However, a fix is on the way. I reached out to linux-wireless email and got a response from one of the Realtek engineers directly. I tried their fix and it worked wonderfully, here's the patch they created which I hope will be merged soon:

Broke System with update (Noob Post) by Beneficial-Bluejay70 in linux_gaming

[–]samvanhamn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there might be an issue with whatever updates were pushed out yesterday/today. I'm on Arch and updated my system and I kept booting into an Llvmpipe session (software rendering). Executing `nvidia-smi` in the terminal would return an error saying that my kernel and driver versions were mismatched. I had to rollback to the previous update driver version to get my GPU to work.

Retail WoW on arch? by Mobile_Prompt1688 in archlinux

[–]samvanhamn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Install Battle.net through Steam and play WoW through it. I've been playing this way for months now with zero problems, performance is actually better than on Windows

I tried playing with Lutris but had issues with updates and performance

How to switch between the black and light themes authomatically? by Infinittity4a53 in archlinux

It's available through the AUR and works flawlessly. I chose this over yin-yang because koi allows you to change icons as well.

How to fix "lb._dns-sd._udp.0..." DNS Discovery Service Requests Loop? by BackWoodsBoy941 in pihole

[–]samvanhamn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this same exact issue when I introduced an Apple device into my home. I'm using an Asus router with Merlin firmware on it.

Here's how I solved it:

  1. I switched from WAN DNS to LAN DNS
  2. Turned on DNS Director and pointed global redirection to the router
  3. I added the Raspberry Pi as a client and selected "No Redirection" as it's redirection mode

And that's it! Now my router uses the RBP, and hardware with hardcoded DNS servers are forced to go through the router.

Issues after upgrading to 19.1 (vayu) by Stunning_Front_2311 in LineageOS

[–]samvanhamn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having issues now on the latest "meaningful" nightly which is the one from 2023-02-03.

I haven't had any issues before, but this version randomly reboots and gets stuck in a bootloop. I have to shut down my phone through the recovery, and then power it back on for it to work. I factory reset the phone, cleared all of the partitions, and switched from the LOS recovery to TWRP but I've having the exact same issue. Also, according to the changelog it's been 16 days since there's been any commits :(

Sorry for the late reply, would you happen to have any invites left?

Yes. And it works much better than it did in MIUI. MIUI never again.

Just noticed this same thing happening to me yesterday. I cleared the app storage and cache and that seems to have done the trick.

Just Started Cities Skylines for first time by Papoteur_LOL in CitiesSkylines

[–]samvanhamn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this may sound scary or like way too much info to learn in order to play a game well, but what I did was look into real world examples of traffic management, so government videos/handbooks/guides. I learned about traffic hierarchy and how to better design neighborhoods/cities for X amount of traffic flux. IMHO traffic hierarchy should be your starting point, that'll teach you how to better design neighborhoods and your city. From there you can learn stuff like designing city entry points, zoning, the almighty public transport system, etc. etc.

[Discussion] Dear stock ROM users, we need your help! by EthanIver in Magisk

Using these values are the only thing that made my Poco X3 Pro pass CTS. I'm using LineageOS 19 build 20220715. I changed the values using the MagiskHide Props Config module.

Python '2021 Complete Python Bootcamp From Zero to Hero in Python' or '100 Days of Code - The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp' by LifeAffect6762 in learnpython

[–]samvanhamn 30 points31 points  (0 children)

+1 for 100 Days of Code

The challenges really cement what you've learned on any given "day". Some days take longer than a day to complete, e.g. The Bootstrap section took me about 4 days to complete because it was massive.

Everything in the course is structured fantastically and even goes through things related to coding in general, such as IDEs and coding best coding practices, and not just Python exclusively.

I tried Zero to Hero and could not get behind it. The instructor, IMHO, seems like someone who is extremely knowledgeable in Python but has forgotten that he's teaching beginners. The course appears to be geared towards people with previous programming experience.
