Things you wish you know when starting out.
  • Oh, that's a good thing to look out for when investigating possible purchases. My Azoth screen goes on at 100% every time I start it, so I have to go through the menu to disable it. Got old real quick.

  • Things you wish you know when starting out.
  • Yeah, I'm currently spending a lot of time debating sizes in my head. I'm pretty sure at this point that 65% is what I want.

    Wasn't familier with QMK, so that's a good tip. Do applied settings get remembered by the keyboard? That's my biggest issue with the Azoth, it forgets keybindings when there's a different computer connected.

  • Things you wish you know when starting out.

    I've had a ROG Azoth (don't judge) keyboard for about a year now. Been using it for both programming and gaming, and I really like it, but there are a few issues (software being the obvious one). So I've decided it's time to put together my own keyboard. I started watching some YouTube and yeah.... I'm out of my depth here.

    So I was wondering if maybe people could share things they wish they knew when starting out so I don't mess up to badly.

    I've already found this switch tester which I figured would give me a general idea of what kind of switches might be for me. Other than that, I'm not really sure how to proceed 😅.

    I'm not interesting in doing any soldering.

    GOG seems to be considering paid membership option
  • I honestly felt the same. Then I thought, eh, let's just try. Turns out I don't care about my library being split. I just add desktop icons for the games I'm playing and launch them from there without thinking about what platform it's on.

  • Høyre-politiker vil at Norge skal kutte som Elon Musk
  • Tittelen som sammenligner dette med Elon Musk er ikke noe mer enn klikk-bait fra Nettavisen sin side. Leser man artikkelen så er forslaget en kommisjon bestående av fagfolk som skal kartlegge muligheter for å redusere kostnader uten å redusere velferden til folket.

  • Bug: Very slow scrolling on long post with several images

    Whenever I try and read long posts with several images, scrolling down becomes extremely sluggish. I've attached a link to one such post. Once I reach the replies to the post, scrolling becomes responsive again.

    This is on Android.

  • I love these posts, but I need to make a bug report for the Boost app, because for some reason these posts are unreadable in that app. Scrolling is just way to sluggish. Not sure if it's the length, or number of images.

  • GOG seems to be considering paid membership option
  • I honestly thought this was an option, but I can't see it in the client, and the offline installers only offer all patches and the latest version. Not the original version.

    I agree that's daft, and hope that feature doesn't get paywalled. The more people who do the survey and stress these points, the better.

  • GOG seems to be considering paid membership option
  • I got the impression they're aiming more for a "fan club" kind of thing where you get access to articles/videos/Q&A/voting rights, etc. So more a kind of Patreon like many creators have. I didn't get the impression that this would in any way change the business model of the store.

  • GOG seems to be considering paid membership option
  • I think the only way they can introduce a subscription without backlash is if they make it a purely community thing with a few bonuses. Give people access to special insights into their preservation efforts, special interviews, voting rights, Q&A, occasional free game, etc. If they lock features behind this like more cloud storage, or other stuff that customers simply expect with their game purchase, the press will be all negative.

  • GOG seems to be considering paid membership option

    Just did a GOG survey that focused on the idea of a paid membership option on GOG. Seems they're determining what people would be willing to pay extra for. Some of the options were

    • a tool for backing up offline installers
    • ability to install previous versions of a game
    • extra insight into the preservation work they're doing.
    • voting rights on games to bring into the preservation program.

    And others that I can't remember.
