(she/they)

Hi! You can call me Tadpole. I enjoy maps/geography, sci-fi and speculative fiction, classic and sports cars and motorsports, and retro and retrofuturistic technology from the 70s-90s. Also a racing, role-playing, indie and retro video game connossieur.

I am a certified lurker.

  • Hi! I know I'm replying to a 13-day old comment, but I've been looking up about the Powkiddy V90 and your comment came up, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask someone who has experience with it...

    Do you know how difficult it is to flash MiyooCFW into it? I don't really have an SD card slot on my computer, so I'm wondering if it's possible to flash it by plugging the console into my computer and flash it that way - or would I have to order an SD card-to-USB adaptor?


  • I follow some meme accounts, if you'd be interested:

    These aren't meme accounts per se, but their "<x> of the day" posts are still neat to me:

  • Yes, for over a year now (since early December 2022, don't remember the exact date).

    My experiences with it seem to constantly be different than that of most users, because Wayland was a direct upgrade for me - I couldn't play games properly on X11 at all because they would stutter and freeze really badly even when Vsync was disabled and the game reported to be running at 60 FPS, but Wayland fixed the issue altogether for me.

    ...Granted, I'm on an AMD card. If I was on Nvidia it'd probably be another story entirely. :x





  • For everyday tasks, I think a Fedora distrobox works fine, but you would have to upgrade it eventually and I admit I'm not sure how you do that under distrobox. Still, I initially used it and still have a Fedora distrobox I use for doing stuff for my job, as well as one I use for running a game modding program that requires Java, and they both work fine.

    I've also had success with a Debian distrobox, which I used to compile Render96ex. Debian is pretty universal, so it's much easier to follow compile instructions using it than a Fedora distrobox ^^'
