Hi! 👋

Hi! Over the summer, I’ve gotten the Need for Speed itch. Thus, I’ve decided to play a title I have never finished: ProStreet. Getting to work on Linux was a bit of a challenge, however. I hope this post will help you run the game. It worked for me under openSUSE Tumbleweed, with Wine version 9.16 . The first thing you need is the game. The game isn’t available for purchase anymore, unless you buy second hand, so pirating is possible....

Hi! Long time no see. Have you ever struggled with motivation? Because I do, all the time. It is a pain in the butt. Especially when you’re bored and you wonder what you could do to not be bored, like me right now, or when you have an important exam coming up and you just can’t be arsed to do anything for it. This is the situation I am in right now....

Hi all! I have said in my most recent blog post that I want to add comments to this blog. After a bit of thinking about it, though, I kinda wonder if this is really a good idea. To explain, we have to go a bit back, around a year ago, if my memory recalls correctly. I posted a post similar to my “Personal Matters” post. The same day I posted it, some goons came on a Discord server I was on and they saw that post and began to troll me over it....

Yo! Long time no see. I have began university, at computer science. Things have been mixed, but mostly well. I kinda just want to do a post to say that I’m here and I want to do stuff here. Not sure what, but I know want to do stuff. I wanna try to do blog posts that talk about random stuff, either in my life or online that I have an interest in and that sparked my own curiosity....

Hi! I like playing TF2. It’s a fun game, even if Valve doesn’t really give a shit about it. Problem is that I haven’t played in quite some time and I wanted to play it recently. Sadly, I couldn’t due to a new update that introduced a bug, I think. I would tell you more if I knew more. All I know is the fix for this issue, that I found on ProtonDB’s page for TF2....

Hi! Well, some people, if there is someone reading this blog, knows that I’ve posted something similar to this a few months ago. I’ve removed that post due to some trolls coming on a Discord server I was in. They saw my blog and that post and began to do what a troll does best: troll. I’m going to hope something like that doesn’t happen again. I know this isn’t the usual stuff I talk about here, but it’s my blog and I will just talk about whatever interests me at the time....

Hi! For as long as I’ve used Linux, it wasn’t super popular with mainstream desktop usage, even amongst people that I consider to be nerdy or knowledgeable in this topic. I’ve tried many times to bring people over, oftentimes being met with failure. If you don’t mind a confession, I used to think that many people who didn’t want even try Linux were just… dumb. Lazy and dumb people, blinded by Windows’s and MacOS’s marketing....

Hi! I’ve realized that, since my last configuration post, things have changed, quite a bit. I’d like to talk about them and some of the things that I still haven’t ironed out yet. Let’s begin! First, my desktop environment: for a long time, I’ve used XFCE4 as my main DE. I’ve tried window managers like stock Openbox before, or desktop environments like GNOME or Cinnamon, but currently, KDE Plasma is the destkop environment I use....

Hi! Happy New Year! Today, I bring you a little story. It’s a bit of a sad one, at least for me, but I think one that would be interesting. Let’s begin! Last week, I got quite sick. It wasn’t anything too bad, but it was enough to make me not able to go to school and not being able to go to school means that I had a lot of free time on my hands and I had to do something with it....

Hi! I’ve purchased recently a new mouse: a SteelSeries Rival 3. I had a Logitech G102 mouse before, but it sadly broke. Setting it up was a bit of a challenge, however. I want to show you today how to set it up using two programs: a CLI one for general configuration and a GUI one for the lighting on it. I’m doing this post mainly as a reference for setting up most functions of the mice as of November 2022, using Linux native software....
