My name is Matt. I enjoy helping people with technology related issues. I also like adorable animals.
O! had I the ability, and could I reach the nation’s ear, I would, today, pour out a fiery stream of biting ridicule, blasting reproach, withering sarcasm, and stern rebuke. For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. The feeling of the nation must be quickened; the conscience of the nation must be roused; the propriety of the nation must be startled; the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed; and its crimes against God and man must be proclaimed and denounced.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•[Discussion] Have you experienced drift or other issues with your original Steam Deck thumb sticks? Also, people who have replaced their thumb sticks, how has your experience been?English
5·3 months agoWhen I opened it to swap the SSD I preemptively changed the joysticks with electromagnetic ones from Gulistick. (LCD Model)
It was really quite straightforward, but I would suggest being familiar with some soldering prior (if you want the capacitive touching function). Otherwise, they have great instructions. The case is great for holding it screen down while you work.

They’ve been great, no complaints.

Wow. This is super tempting to try.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone have suggestions for buying a webcam?English
3·6 months agoIf you’re handy, you could try making your own! https://youtu.be/K1T1eMyPIC4
I know you said avoiding Logitech namly, but the Logitech C920 is one of the most recommended webcams because of the price, quality, and features (physical privacy cover, FoV, etc.). The other benefit of having a popular webcam (or any PC hardware) is it means better software support.
Otherwise, there is a c920 clone Aukey PC-LM1E 1080p

2·7 months agoOh that’s nice, I didn’t realize the plate swap had new buttons with it. I’ve been tempted to look into it more but it felt daunting - even with a decent amount of experience pulling stuff apart

5·7 months agoBack button “enhancement set”.
Hated the stock back buttons and just never used them because they lined up exactly with the joint on my finger.
These just stick on with some 3M tape (definitely clean prior to application) and my fingers rest on the buttons now - and they’re way easier to click.
I also grabbed some thumb stick cover things, but those aren’t as “game changing”

Astronomy@mander.xyz•Learning The Basics Of Astrophotography EditingEnglish
2·9 months agoAlways appreciate updated and current videos on the process, even if I can’t mimic on Linux.
Something that has always frustrated me about the editing process is that every program has its own unique features
Some you get wavlets
Some you get stacking and aligning
Some you get level adjustments and curves
All while most of the programs are deprecated and/or abandonware
I think currently I have Registax, Auto Stakkar, Siril, PiPP, and Gimp installed for processing just because some programs perform features better than others.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•What games did you get down with over the holiday weekend?English
2·9 months agoLooks interesting - how is the game loop since it’s a rogue-like? Tedious, or does it feel pretty rewarding?

Android@lemmy.world•Review of F(x)tec Pro1 X after 3 months of useEnglish
6·10 months agoThanks for sharing the review!
Did you end up using eBay to buy it or another site? I’ve only seen a few listed, and the prices vary pretty severely.
Bummer about the fingerprint sensor location - but luckily not a huge deal. Overall it seems like a decent enough phone if you want a keyboard.
Game informer is back‽ Exciting
Leave it off for a few days and stick it near a dehumidifier if you have one. As long as it stays off until it’s completely dry it should be okay.
Agree with the other commenter that rice isn’t the best bet. Even if nothing ‘bad’ happens, it can get stuck in the heat sink and/or get moldy if you don’t get it all out.
If you’re really worried, you could take the shell off the deck off and dry the inside.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•[Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - November 2024English
5·1 year agoLoop Hero . Picked it up for last week for just under $5 and it’s been a lot of fun.
It’s an Indie rogue-like with a surprising amount going on.
My favorite being is that it mixes a deck builder rogue-like with building a world each run.
The “permanent upgrades” (outside of the game-loop) are pretty interesting as well- building a village/city and managing supplies.
Ah, yeah - someday I’ll make it scale better
What benefit does SSL/HTTPS provide if the data going back and forth is just HTML? (No user names / passwords / etc.?)
I have it set up for my jellyfin server since there is login data.
Not that I won’t add it, just didn’t know there was a need



Hot damn
Now we just need PictoChat
