Hi, I'm Aks (Akseli Lahtinen) from Finland! I'm KDE dev by day and a hobbyist gamedev/FOSS-dev by night. I like metal, industrial and EBM music, and I love FPS, RPG and spacesim games. I also love tinkering with Linux systems.

I have always dabbled with programming languages, even as a kid. But I never made anything with them until I was in my 20s. Most extensive things I did before my 20s was simple modifications to some files or dumb tiny javascript files....
I've been playing around with Matrix homeservers. I like the idea of running my own federated server to join random channels in. Here's the two I've played around with so far and what I've thought about them. My plan is also to create...
People who read this mess of a blog may have noticed that I am very Linux-y. This wasn't actually always the case. I used to be very comfort oriented. Didn't mean that I didn't like to tinker with things, but more like when I got home I...
So I got a Devterm... Back in June I ordered a Devterm. It finally arrived this month. I enthusiastically retrieved the package and started assembling. The assembly part was pretty easy, since there's really no tools needed except for...
So I got myself a PineTime watch about 8 days ago, and so far I've enjoyed using it! It's a rather simple smartwatch, but that's why I like it. No complicate BS, just the basic stuff and that's it. And it was only ~30€! (Plus 10€...
Just a quick post, I wanted to share two things. Commissioned art First, I got this really nice commission of my character Huntra wearing Linux shirt. I really like Xenia so I wanted to see my character in something similar. Thank you...
I have had some problems with Kubuntu working well with multimonitor setup. I use X11 so the reason is most likely there, not just Kubuntu's fault. When booting up my PC and ending up in SDDM, I see the login screen in both screens. Bit...
A bit of boring rambling. Something I've been thinking about. Not really answering the question directly. I am talking about desktop Linux and not just the server side. Just remember, these are my opinions and nothing factual. I hate...
I have Kubuntu non-LTS version myself, so I wanted to write down how I set up Kubuntu for basic gaming. Hopefully it'll help someone. Setting up Linux can be tricky, but it's well worth it. Note: I use AMD GPU so I don't have proper...
Yeah, not uncommon these days. I am so tired of using Twitter and being flooded with random, uninteresting crap. The algorithm still does it's thing even when you have "latest tweets" enabled. On top of that, the muted words thing works...
Disclaimer: I may be cringe but I am free So I have this lizard partial suit I ordered from here: https://www.lisanotuspaja.com/en/ And I love wearing it! I just rarely have time/energy lol. The character is my own OC Huntra! Anyways,...
I just wanted to write down what I had to do to make Quake Champions more playable on my Kubuntu setup. It had lots of stuttering problems for me, so here's what I did to fix it. Move the game to SSD I had QC on my NVME/M.2 drive at...
Quake Logo ANSII Played around with REXPaint. It works fine under Wine. Felt like making Quake logo because of Quakecon and Quake being 25 years old!
If there is alternative, better ways, do tell! Edit: I figured out that this problem may arise mostly when alt+tabbing out of the game. Sometimes, the alt key gets "stuck" and you have to either press it again, or alt+tab to the game...
Update! This patch has been added to the kernel, so if you have kernel 5.14.15-200 you should be good to go! It seems to also work on 5.13.0-28 on Kubuntu! Here's link to the patch...
