What do you code in Rust? in c/[email protected]

[–] lambda 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'd love to browse your code. Do you have any of this in a public git repo?

Genuine question. What is the "tucky" in pennsyltucky? Is it somehow tied to Kentucky?

I've got it working a couple of times. In my opinion they need to fix documentation, make flakes an officially supported thing and take it out of beta that it's been in for years so that documentation can be further created, and the installer should work on a majority of devices out of the box.

My laptop was the worse experience. I just wanted KDE and Firefox. I don't use it for much. But, KDE wouldn't load so I had to go into CLI and edit the configuration.nix and change some stuff to get it to work. It's a thinkpad that has official support for Linux. So, it was specifically a nix driver issue. I just installed Arch again and went on like normal. I would love to trust it with a server. But, I just can't.

Nice! That'd be a game changer for me for sure!

Does it work with ROMs/emulators? I would love to be able to setup all of my ROMs on my server and just download the ones I want to play on a per-game basis. My ROMs are mostly compressed in .zip or .7z so that's a different problem. It would be great to have my emulators configured per-device and ROMs on my server.

I'm imagining how cool it would be to have an app on Steam Deck to help manage local ROMs too. But, that would require Linux builds of the client I suppose.

Launchbox is local. This is a server software with clients.

It's built on Quake. So, I figured it might 😊

That's sick! I'll try it on my Steam Deck!

Edit: ran great. Controls weren't ideal. I had to use a mouse in the menus.

Any suggestions for a Wi-Fi ipcam I can use as a baby monitor? (self.homeassistant)

I currently use Frigate as an NVR for my outside cameras. I would like something that integrates with that. I really just care that it is fully local. I don't want a chance of someone on the internet being able to access a camera in my baby's bedroom.

How can I transfer non-steam games between Linux devices. (self.linux)

submitted 4 months ago by lambda to c/[email protected]

25 comments fedilink

I have a desktop and a steam deck. I would like to setup some old games I have on disc on the desktop. Then compress them and decompress on my Steam Deck without doing the full install again. I understand that with wine/proton prefixes they should be installed to a "fake c:/ windows hierarchy" can I just compress that and copy to a different Linux machine? Does it save which proton version was used? If I use something like Lutris or bottles can I import into them?

dockge | self-hosted docker compose.yaml stack-oriented manager (github.com)

I just found this last night and installed it for testing. It's just a web-gui to help manage compose.yml files. It's not fully featured yet, but I believe it's got some real potential to be a regular stay for me.

What would you use to remotely support a computer with "LAN" access? (self.linux)

submitted 1 year ago by lambda to c/linux

I have a few family members that I help support. For instance, I installed Linux Mint on my grandmother's PC. She doesn't know any different and my young cousin doesn't understand it so he finally stopped giving it viruses. I used to use TeamViewer to take over her PC when she needed support but I got my account banned because they believed I was using it commercially. Oh well!

I have Tailscale installed on the computers. This gives me SSH access. What would you suggest? RDP? Something else?

Matthew Croughan - Use flake.nix, not Dockerfile - MCH2022 (www.youtube.com)

I agree that dockerfile's are not very reproducible. But honestly, that's not how most people use it. I believe most people just pull the already built image which is very reproducible. Anyways, I found this video interesting and thought I'd share it and get your guys thoughts.

I hope I am not coming across as spamming as this is my third post to this community today. I won't do another today but I just thought this was interesting. I watch most of CTT's videos and this was one from a live stream where he went into gaming on NixOS.

I was looking up gaming on NixOS and I came across this video. I have never seen this creator before but the video was interesting. So, I thought I'd share.

Is there a place that people share their configs? (self.nix)

submitted 1 year ago by lambda to c/nix

5 comments fedilink

I know you can go github and just do a file search. I am just wondering if there is a place where people share and give descriptions. I would like to see what is out there in terms of "gaming configurations". But, I also would love to just read some random configs that can help me learn new concepts of what can be done in the config.
