I did it finally, deleted win10 and installed Linux Mint
  • Did the switch a little while ago too, couldn't be happier.

  • Just Switch Over
  • Wow I feel stupid lol. That fixed it. Thank you :)

  • Just Switch Over
  • Is that a per-app thing that can be done in Mint? Pretty much only get tearing in firefox when playing video, and I tried the 'layers.acceleration.force-enabled true' setting in about:config for firefox, but that didn't really make a difference.

  • Just Switch Over
  • I'm thinking its either nvidia on linux being nvidia on linux, or it not liking mixed resolutions and refresh rates. But really the only noticeable tearing I get is in firefox when playing video like youtube or something.

  • Just Switch Over
  • Made the switch this weekend :) From Win 11 to Mint 22. Haven't run into any real issues really. I have the occasional screen tear on some videos in firefox though. Haven't searched around enough yet to figure that out, but otherwise all good.

  • Finished the Knight
  • Thank you :D

  • Finished the Knight

    Finished up my Knight in my Grey Knights color scheme/finish. Whole things is magnetized like crazy. Can swap out the masks, banners, shield, all the weapons, etc. Also magnetized the wrist joint on the fist so I could rotate it. I wanted to use the whole dang kit! (Including Sir Hekhtur) :)

    Strung up a few LEDs to illuminate it. Rocks (made from wood chips from my yard lol) hide LEDs to shine up at the banner and chest. If/when I get brave enough, I'll attempt painting text :p

    LEDs in the cockpit are fed through bare ethernet wire I strung down the sides and into the legs (WIP post).

    If anyone has any suggestions for a micro LED, I'd like to tuck one behind the head and have it backlight through the face masks.

    Keep getting errors trying to upload images

    I keep getting generic 'failed to upload image' errors when trying to do image posts or post images in comments. My account is logged into lemmy.world, is there a way to see any more details about the errors? I can't figure out why they keep failing. Different formats, etc too.

    Update

    I think I figured it out, appears to be an issue with file size. Haven't nailed down if it's an issue with resolution or file size, but I've been sticking with 1mb or less and less than 2048x2048 and things have been working out so far.

    Thank you for the help/replies :)

    Knight WIP

    Knight I've been working on and off for a little while now. Arms, weapons, face mask, hatch and shield piece and hanging banner will be magnetized. Wanting to maximize that kit lol. Some interior LED lights, blue kind of gets blown out in the camera. Exposed copper wire run down the legs (can see it on the left leg; will be hidden by armor) and will be passed into and under the base. Plan to have the connector/batt be removable so I can just hook up the lights when I want to display them.

    update: finished Knight post
