pls, how do I change this
Republic of Gamers < Democratic People’s Republic of Gamers
Union of Gamer Socialist Republics.
It’s retribution for buying motherboard from the
republicApparently you might be able to
Pop BIOS when booting, the go to the Boot tab, look for boot logo display; it should have 3 settings, auto, full screen, and disabled
Yup this will fix it no problemo - I also have an ASUS ROG mobo.
There’s also HackBGRT which allows you to set whatever custom boot logo you want; u just have to redo it after every Windows update
Years ago I was looking into gaming laptops and all of the ASUS ones said PREDATOR in massive gamer-font letters. I’d be utterly embarrassed to be seen in public with that.
It’s still hard to find laptops with a good GPU without the cringe-ass gamer aesthetic. Like for fuck’s sake I’m not even a gamer, I wanted one for CG rendering.
Announcing to everyone at the library that I’m a predator because I’m a cool gamer

Have you looked at the Framework 16? It’s a fully upgradable and repairable laptop that can come with an AMD Radeon RX 7700S and doesn’t have any gamer branding. The issue is that it costs more than competing products, but all its competitors are gamer branded.
Amazon has the razer blade 15(2022) for about $2k, marked down from about $4k. Has a 3080ti
My brother in christ, you bought the Asus ROG motherboard.
I futzed around in the fancy BIOS a couple times and tried using their recommended CPU overclocking profile and upon boot my computer crashed so hard that it refused to boot again for like ten minutes
Imagine being a gamer I say as I sit in my gamer chair with my gamer headphones and all my RGB shit everywhere
RGB shit everywhere
Does anyone even like them? Looks like a tacky Christmas tree to me.
I love mine yeah. It’s childish and ridiculous and honestly that’s why I love it. Those of us millennials who grew up in backwards repressed households gotta enjoy our childhood as adults instead. Covering my entire living space with ridiculous lights is one of those ways I live today for the child that barely survived it then.
Oof I didn’t mean to denigrate that for you. You certainly shouldn’t feel bad about that
Personally, I wish they would just include an off switch.
Oh you didn’t, I’m happy with who I am. RGB lights are stupid as fuck and not for everyone, they are just for my particular brand of stupid
all do digitally, some do physically.
and it should theoretically be simple to make a physical switch off the adressable header if you wanted a physical switch.
I haven’t found that to be true of cheap mice and keyboards, or I have to do a certain key combo every time it loses power. I usually end up desoldering the LEDs, but sometimes that makes it stop working so I have to resolder them and put tape around them.
for keyboards and mice, that would depend if it came with software, if it did, it probably has an off setting (e. g my old redragon mouse did, and that was like a 12$ mouse like in idk 2016?) keyboard definetely would be hard if it was a really dirt cheap keyboard.
They can be any colour rather than every colour
I hate it. I’ve got one thing on my desk that changes color and it’s my trackball, everything else is just a white backlight or a green status light.
I like rgb on my keyboards because I play in the dark and being able to see my keys is actually functional.
Glowing lettering makes it easier to pick out an obscure symbol you barely use on your keyboard
I have a small amount of rgb and it’s cool
I hate RGB crap and find it annoying that it’s basically mandatory
i officially declare the People’s Republic of Gamers
I think there is a way to turn off the animation somewhat, a member of my family also has the cringe OEM splash screen and they were able to disable the animation and the sound.
Of course, if you can afford a Republic of Gamers computer then you can definitely afford a System76 machine or a Framework which have very not cringe coreboot BIOS. Those machines + something like universal blue will get you the least cringe operating system in the world.
Oooh these are neat. Definitely going this route whenever I can afford to upgrade.
MSI stay winning.
That thing looks like it needs to be put out of its misery!
ASRock is winning. It posts with an image that says “ASRock”.
This name is a reference to the Republic Of China (ROC) because ASUS brand is from Taiwan province.
It’s doable, but might not be feasible. ASUS used to offer a utility, MyLogo, which updated BIOS ROMs for their motherboards with a user-selected image file. Unless they or some hobbyist offer an equivalent… Maybe enabling fast boot will hide the splash screen?
If nobody’s documented the procedures though, you’d end up dumping the BIOS, probably end up using flasher hardware to update if they’ve made the update process more locked down (digital signatures and whatnot).
it should be a dictatorship of the gaming proletariat
Why not Worker’s Council Of Gamers?

haha yeah, whatever else
