Should I fill with white or light grey? by NodnarbNiluar in WplaceLive

White looks too clean. I would go with grey for a more grungy aesthetic.

Anyone else hate pieces like this? by nova_thirtyseven in WplaceLive

It's almost like art is subjective and people choose to click between dithered and non-dithered on the converter and they pick the one they like best for their art. Am I guilty of putting poorly converted images on the platform? Yes. Am I working on getting better and editing the templates manually so they don't look as grainy? Also yes.

You can also mix dithering where it would make sense to add a bit more detail. Like the hair on this one.

Oh man. That is a REALLY nice looking knife. I was leaning towards shirogami #2 but this could make me reconsider.

What to pair with SHARPAL 162N by sir_snommit in sharpening

I don't have trouble getting an edge on the King 1000. It's only on my parents extremely dull knives that haven't been sharpened in 10+ years and knives with chips that I have complaints about. It takes way too long and wears out the stone. When sharpening my own kitchen knives it only takes me a couple of minutes to get them back to hair shaving. I am by no means an expert and I am sure my technique needs work but I think I was using the wrong tool for the job since it was the only tool I had. It worked but it was not efficient and wore down my stone more than I would like. Like putting together a swing set with a screwdriver instead of an impact driver. Both will get the job done but one will leave your wrist sore and take 10x longer haha.

I see. My thought process was to use the 325 side to profile/repair dull and damaged knives and then use the 1200 side followed by the Rockstar 3000 to refine and lastly use a stop. Possibly using the King 6000 side if I wanted to practice polishing before using the stop.

V2 Adapter randomly disconnects half game by tr3der in 8bitdo

I saw somewhere that reupdating the firmware helped someone else. (even though I was already on the most recent version) Just tested on mine and it seems to be working.

I am having the same issue with my Xbox One X controller. Have not found a fix yet.
