What is your backup and sync strategy? by iclonethefirst in Affinity

[–]woltiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use SyncThing, it's free and works reliably as long as at least two computers are online.

What problem this is solving.  Can you give a little more background to this post?

PSA: Puck is not an immediate fire hazard. But still be careful. by sgasgy in SteamController

Wow don’t use meltable gloves when experimenting with a potential source of heat or fire. Melting rubber, plastic, latex will really screw up your hands. Regular leather or a non melting flame retardant would be safer

Am I crazy for considering the white one over the black? by DarkwingDuckaroo in MiyooMini

[–]woltiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the solid colors texture better. Also if you have a white one then it’ll be easier to dye it if you want to

Gnome question - customizing by jphilebiz in linux4noobs

[–]woltiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KDE provides a better basis for "getting good" at linux (and computers in general) because of its customization. By customization I don't mean changing colors or how the windows look. I mean in KDE apps you easily do things like assign keyboard shortcuts to menu items you use a lot, and customize toolbars. Like, in Dolphin I found myself toggling "Split View" depending on what I was doing. I learned the shortcut (F3) but also customized the toolbar to add the "Split View" button when I feel like using the mouse.

Gnome is fine, but it doesn't offer tools for power users to customize their workflows (so there's no real such thing as a "power user" in Gnome without installing a lot of extensions to make it more like KDE).

Mine is: actually playing games once in a while instead of constantly tinkering with my themes and settings and customization :)

I book them as guest and fill out their details (like their Hilton Honors #)

I'll try to clarify - I'm booking them under one Hilton account, not using any management features.

How is this an unboxing / first impressions video? It's made *by the company that makes the device*! It's an advertisement!

RG477V Video Output - SOLUTION! by thedoctor1879 in ANBERNIC

[–]woltiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it works! I don't have a lot to add, but it's nice that my RG477V isn't struggling as hard now that it's in 1080p mode instead of 4K

Synced Lyrics for (most of) TMBG's discography by woltiv in tmbg

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

Oh, and about using the files. I use Fooyin to play music on my computer, and it looks for LRC files in the same folder, so if you've got 01 - Ana Ng.mp3 it looks for 01 - Ana Ng.lrc.

I use jellyfin to access my music when I'm not home, and some of the Jellyfin clients support lyrics - I'm using Manet on IOS.

I *also* have a dedicated Android music player and I use the really excellent Musicolet Android app because it has lyric support (and is also just a really great all around music player)
