burn the (s)witch! /s

can’t argue what feels nice to type with. :)

preference is always king. Some like tactile, some like linears, some heretical people like clickies.

Switching switches tends to come with a period of getting accustomed to the new feel, at least for me. I switched from cherry mx browns to durock L7’s (68g ones, iirc), so quite the jump and I absolutely love them. Types just fine, but the first week was pretty weird, ngl.

Yup, reasonable points.

But, it is 3 clicks for now, but it might not even be an option later on. Yea yea, doomer and tinfoilhats. :)

the ads in a paid os shouldn’t be a thing to begin with.

I do use blender quite a bit, but haven’t really used much of the video editor. Last time I tried it CTD’d contantly. If it has gotten stable, reasonable audio tools and gpu accelerated video output, it might be a contender.

thank you for the tip, will check it out.

Essentially what I need is 3+ audiotracks, compressors for each and master. Then annotate with images/text whatever video there is. And yes it’s gameplay videos mostly.

lossless cut not really a concern, but I’d like to have the end result rendered out fast, so nvenc (current hardware) or so would be grand.

But, will expirement!

Most of my stuff works on Linux now, so, yay. Currently only thing holding me back from doing a full switch is essentially video editing.

My current go-to video editor is Vegas Pro, and it just works like an extension of me, for me. I’ve tried few editors on linux (kdenlive, davinci) but they’re either very limited/odd/user-error-id10t or just doesn’t support video formats I need (davinci, free version doesn’t support h264 or hevc, and not feeling like shelling north of 300 USD for it). Next up on my testing plate is Shotcut, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.

*horizontal, but yea. ISO seems to be hella rare. Don’t euro-peeps really buy mechanicak keebs that much?

you might have to explain the joke a bit. I get that jokes don’t get better with explaining, but… I don’t get it

started with NES games in late 80’s, so in theory I should be fine with game pads? Platformers and driving games I can generally do fine, anything else? … heh, it’s like watching parents use computers. I just can’t do first/third person aiming with analog sticks or use bumpers/triggers at the same time with anything else.

Mouse and keyboard are my weapons of choice, at least with those I’m not embarrassingly bad.

edit: though, Nintendo Game Cube controller is kinda my thing, not that I’ve played much of NGC games or anything, but I did finish Eternal Darkness just fine (emulated, used savestates, but still), the controller just feels way more natural than modern xbox/ps controllers

oh, right. how silly of me.

I’ve read the comments here and I just don’t get it, what does any of this mean?

Breaking up with your mom.

Haven’t had a grill in ages. So hungery.

is Gearbox still in terms with Epic? It’ll probably be in holding cells Epic store for a year anyway, and then it’ll move to other stores with ULTIMATE EDITION -dlc bundle, with another dlc planned later on which isn’t in ULTIMATE EDITION. Wasn’t that the play with 3 as well?

Unless 4 does something truly new for the series, I’m probably not going to get it, at all. Kinda feel like I’m done with the series.

So, I’m an arch-btwistan, what does nixos do for a gamer/youtuber/low-tier-wannabe-musician? Legit asking, because I really don’t know what makes nixos tick, and the (very little) I’ve read doesn’t really explain the benefits of it

not to be rude, but the brand reads on the device :D

anyhoo, going by the name & browsing their website: https://www.kensington.com/p/products/electronic-control-solutions/trackball-products/expert-mouse-wired-trackball3-1/

I guess just because how the question was laid out, I’m disqualified as I was taught how to use it the first time I used it. :P

with my first linux -system, I had an experienced friend to hold my hand while installing, configuring and usage - including vim. So, the first thing he taught me was how to exit it. This was sometime in … 2003-ish?

Fun tunes, totally jamming these if they’d play in game or whatever situation I might be at (bar, party, whatever), but not really jams I’d specifically seek out to actively listen.

Still, happy I heard them, the carousel one did bop for me a bit, but … eh, I dunno. Cool stuff, maybe the overlord algorithm of youtube throws something bit more my jams on the frontpage at some point after going through these! :)

Thanks!

heh, to me vocalist is a percussive instrument. I’m down for anything as long as it flows… But don’t have spotify. But link/recommend me up, my dude.
