basic UI programming in linux
  • I'd recommend egui, though you have to use Rust for it. (learning it should be easy, considering the fact that you have background in C).

  • My boss gifted me an old thinkpad x31
  • Libreboot it.

  • RIP fmovies. Long live sudo
  • I just use Sonarr, Prowlarr, Transmission, and Jellyfin to get this stuff

  • Car Privacy is Shit
  • I plan to buy 2003 Skoda Octavia for obvious reasons or some car with automatic transmission.

  • UPDATE! Now 30% of Lemmy Apps display posts accurately
  • What's the score on Eternity?

  • I got average monthly ratings for games on Wine AppDB, and seems like something happened in 2016.
  • Even Minecraft, which is just Java, runs at 20% less FPS than on Windows, constant stutters and screen tearing that Vsync won't fix.

    Have you tried Sodium? And don't use stock Minecraft launcher. There is Prism Launcher, which is way better.

    And then there is all of the RTX raytraced games that are broken or have considerably worse performance. - What about 5.1 surround speakers that work out of the box but will not work on Linux. I tried every driver and every tinker. So I can basically enjoy my game without sound, because my Razer headset also won't connect automatically on boot. I have to unplug the dongle every single time.

    Raytracing on linux is good these days

    Then what about my Logitec mouse and keyboard and Corsair RGB? Can't configure that either.

    You have OpenRGB for that.

    What (read body)
  • AFAIK Proton doesn't support Reflex yet.

  • What is the Windows Equivalent of Popular Linux apps?
  • I used Game Bar to record my videos back in the day. But it's just too basic.

  • What is the Windows Equivalent of Popular Linux apps?
  • LibreCAD is shittier version of AutoCAD. Also, we don't have anything like Inventor on Linux. But we do have Heroic Games Launcher for Epic Games Launcher.

  • How to make my server reachable
  • AFAIK, Tailscale has Funnel, which is better than CF tunnels since you can expose any machine you have without buying an expensive switch.

  • Removed
    Why don't libertarian rednecks like Linux?
  • and that's no fun at all.

    Please go touch grass.

  • How FOSS is your setup?
  • The collaboration feature + the inclusion of GitHub login and Copilot. Though those can be stripped out if you don't want them.

  • How FOSS is your setup?
  • OS

    • Linux on my laptop, had hackintoshed a 2015 MacBook Pro before to run macOS Sonoma, and that ran on this device before
    • Windows on my desktop to play games from studios that are owned by a certain Chinese investment company starting on T.
    • stock Android on my SM-A536B since LineageOS isn't ported (yet) to this device.

    (Semi)Libre Software

    • Zed
    • Eternity for Lemmy
    • Tubular (NewPipe + Sponsorblock and ReturnYTDislike)
    • Tusky for Mastodon
    • Rust (the language)

    Proprietary software

    • GSuite (for collaboration)
    • Games and game launchers (namely Steam on PC and on laptop and Epic shitty games launcher on PC)

    I'd consider my setup 8/10 FOSS.

  • Understanding Linux and choosing your first Linux distro, v2.0
  • It'd be nice to mention Pantheon and elementaryOS.

  • Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face.
  • Here in Europe, you don't have to go through any facial recognition check if you don't want to. This also applies if you're traveling to the UK.

  • Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face.
  • Well, probably. You can't 100% trust them.
