I’m curious about the stick drift thing.

I have 3 controllers, two of which I’ve had since maybe 6 months after the PS5 was released since that’s about how long it took me to get one.

Both controllers have a few hundred hours on them, neither have stick drift. The third one doesn’t have nearly the amount of hours on it since my kid spilled juice on it and I procrastinated for a few months to take it apart and clean it lol so I’m not considering that one.

Is it really that bad or did I just get lucky? These things are almost 4 years old and still work perfectly fine.


The Linux driver isn’t the most straightforward to install but it’s not difficult. You have to install the installer first, then install the driver with the installer.

Only caveat is you don’t get the adrenaline software, but it’s kind of a moot point as it wouldn’t work anyway due to how Linux works.

I’m running Ubuntu 22.04, was using gnome but switched over to KDE and stopped getting crashes in certain games and got a small performance increase. I suppose that would be due to dropping Wayland for X when I moved to KDE.


Swapped over to a 7800XT about 3 months ago. Better Linux performance, tested a bit on Windows also and it worked fine, I’m more than satisfied with my decision to hop over from my 3060.


I picked up Vintage Story after seeing someone else recommend it. I haven’t made it too far, but even with the lack of people, the world still feels more alive. The crafting is nice and more advanced, and it’s a bit less forgiving.

Plan on putting a bit more time into it once I finish up with my No Man’s Sky playthrough.
