We need this level of energy. All the time...
  • I filled out a form wrong so now I just don't have health insurance until I can re-enroll in the fall. Hope I don't get sick until then! Also my car's airbag just malfunctioned, I'm driving very carefully lol.

  • Headset recommendation
  • I've had mine for at least 5 years, probably more. You don't need any software on Linux, it's picked up as a normal USB audio device: SteelSeries ApS SteelSeries Arctis 7 I'm no audiophile, but audio quality is great. I had the Logitech G930 before and I like this better. The one USB device actually presents 2 audio devices to the computer because it has this neat dial that lets you mix your game sound and chat sounds right on the headset.

  • Headset recommendation
  • I use the steelseries arctis 7 (I think, it's the non-pro version). It works great in Endeavor and is very simple. I don't think I can tell how much charge the battery has but I charge it every night so that's not an issue. Highly recommend buying a magnetic USB cord for it.

  • I want to switch to Linux for gaming, but I need an accessible desktop environment
  • KDE has a good zoom feature built in, however it keeps the mouse centered which is good for doing precise graphical thing, but maybe not the best for gaming. It's good for reading if you hold your mouse still. You can absolutely find or make a green cursor. Some guy here said gaming on Linux is janky but honestly I've been super impressed for the past year I've used it. I only had one game that wouldn't run out of the box so far and got it running by installing some Microsoft VC runtime or something. Everything else just starts runs without issue. Edit: runs without issue in steam.

  • Where did the "Window Action" feature go?

    KDE 5 had a feature in the keyboard shortcuts in settings where you could set a Window Action as a trigger instead of a keyboard shortcut (Documentation in the link). This means that KDE would do something every time a certain window appeared. This was very useful, my use case was changing the TeamViewer authorization prompt to NT logon as I don't use the normal TeamViewer password. I think there should be a workaround if it's truly gone, but for the life of me I can't remember or search for the name of this software that does something every time a certain window is created.

    The BIOS is part of your operating system and pee is stored in the balls.

    This was a Lenovo. Now I'm wondering if Windows or Linux has a better BIOS.

    Cool game from ESL: Special vs Cham game 1

    I don't understand how these 2 always have such bangers of games. Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't Special a lot better than Cham? Special competes in the GSL, I hadn't even heard of Cham until this or last year.

    What is the nerf that ghosts need?

    Snipe is still insane in TvZ. Ghosts counter spellcasters that don't really have a counter to ghosts, and then they also counter every other unit, especially the lategame ones. Once you get to the lategame, there's never a reason to not mass ghosts. The game says that roaches are the counter to ghosts, but has anyone ever made a roach after the 9 minute mark?
