  • The only thing I can think of is to try the drives in a different system and see how they behave (same OS and configuration).

    If they behave the same then that rules out everything except the drives themselves and the OS.

    Considering how you mentioned the behavior is better in Windows, it sounds like a software issue, but you never know until you try.



    1. Power management on certain chips is simply better than anything Linux has to offer (AMD Zen+ mobile for instance)
    2. Modular driver architecture with drivers that aren't complete jank to manage and install. A lot of people see this as a pain point, but in reality it's not such a bad thing, especially nowadays.
    3. This is a given, but as lots of stuff runs on Windows (namely older games), you can only really make stuff for Windows on Windows. So if you need to develop Win32 software, you really have to use Visual Studio for proper development. Mingw cross compile exists, I know, but that's never going to be as good.

    Number 3 is keeping me on Windows. I make mods for old games and I need Visual C++. I almost got the compiler to run under Wine but who knows how it would behave if it did run.






  • Not my channel lol (I only have old stuff from a Roland on my channel of the same name as here on Lemmy)

    That's ChiptunedRaijin for you! You also might wanna check out Savaged Regime for similar content (Super Castlevania IV on Genesis/MD, for example).

    And yeah, the sound tech is really dependant on how it's utilized. There's also the inverse - Sonic music done on the SPC chip!

    The possibilities really are endless.

    I like it but it has a couple tiny issues:

    1. Font title is the same weight as the rest of the post, making it hard to make things out from afar.

    2. Scrolling for me often results in "reaching the end" when there's more posts below, causing me to have to refresh often. (At least, this is the case on iOS and not on my desktop.)


  • She picked the right moment to come out with this. I mean, keeping this in for 2 whole years while being under the impression that you're under some NDA, you can only imagine how stressful she must've felt.

    I feel really sorry for her and I wish her the best. She's a really cool person.
