I’m all for competition in the market and knew enough to be able to fix any problems I ran into on windows, but linux is a whole different beast. It’s the first intel product I’ve bought since my first CPU in 2012

Yeah I got the arc card ages ago before I thought I would ever go to linux, then a buddy of mine started daily driving linux, so I got a resource to to go to for help lol. I’m just waiting on black friday to switch back to amd now

Arc is actually decent on windows, but the combination of linux and arc is less than ideal

I’m in the double minority of linux and intel arc. It’s… less than amazing

I feel that pain in my soul! Sometimes my settings get applied, sometimes not, sometimes integrations work, sometimes not, sometimes the app updates properly, sometimes it breaks itself so windows doesn’t know it’s installed and won’t run it, but the installer thinks it’s installed, so it won’t repair it so I have to delete fucking anything I can find from icue, reinstall it, uninstall with revo, and then reinstall fresh and import all my saved profiles, which only sometimes work. Why the fuck is iCUE so goddamn shitty?!

I’ll have to look into that. Thanks for the info!

I had heard of CKB next, but I thought it was a general purpose RGB software. Good to know!

Yeah I don’t expect to get all the functionality in one piece of software, so I’ll have to cobble it together. Of course, icue depends on the .net framework so it’s not getting ported, and the other 2 just don’t have an official native linux app. Jack mixer is my current target for voicemeeter, but I have to start researching the others at some point.

As someone who understands windows fairly well, but until recently couldn’t use the command line to save my life, I started dual booting Ubuntu and it’s pretty easy to figure out once you understand what you’re looking for. Only things I’m still trying to get running are alternatives for the stream deck software, iCUE, and voicemeeter, but I havem’t really invested much time into them yet.

When I went to glass it took me an embarrassingly long time to realize I needed to up my bed temp by 10° if I wanted good adhesion

I swapped to glass a few years ago and the things I have learned since are that glass that’s too thick will cause you issues with bed temperature, and you can print PETG on it so long as you can guarantee you’ll be there when the print finishes to release it with IPA or you’ll have chunks of glass missing from your build plate. I got a G10 build plate 2 days ago and sofar I’m liking it more than glass

He didn’t make that decision as a judge performing his duties, he made it as an egotistical dickhead being an egotistical dickhead

I use kijiji, even with the dwindled userbase compared to marketplace, signal instead of messenger, and I wasn’t going to events anyway, so I’m set without facebook

I would refer to that as thickness, but I’m not a jeweller. My advice stays the same though, try some on and see what you like.

My wedding band is ~8 mm and i’ve never worn a ring less than 4 at its narrowest point. I would say just find something you like the look of, and see if you can find something at a jeweller that’s similar you can try on if you’re that worried about the fit.

Your mom lets you have 2 mini pp’s to compensate for?
