This is a trailer for NBA 2k20, that shows more gambling content than actual gameplay.

The top comment is:

Hey 2k, theres a basketball minigame in your gambling simulator, can you fix it please?…

Could I have a game rendered by a discrete GPU running in a window being handled by an Xorg session rendered by an integrated GPU?

I used to do this, but I use wayland now. Similar setup though.

Would it matter if the video output was physically connected to the discrete GPU or the motherboard, or is that configurable?

Yes it matters. On many laptops the hdmi out is ONLY on the discrete gpu, meaning the discrete gpu must be on (and sucking power) in order to display to external monitors, even if the internal gpu is doing the rendering.

This is a linux terminal tutorial, but in the style of a text based rpg.

We still play tribes

(I personally don't. But maybe...)

Vscode is an IDE, but only after I spent 15 minutes finding and selecting the appropriate java extensions and ensuring that my Linux system had Java installed.

But what was a 15 minute process to me, could easily be a 2 hour struggle to someone who is setting up a development environment for the first time and "just wants autocomplete and debugging".

also as a bonus question, why does every IDE seem to require you to configure every single option before it can run code

What IDE's have you tried?

Kate (and vscode) aren't really IDE's, they're more like extremely extensible text editors. You can make them IDE's, but they dob't come like that out of the box.

On the other hands, actual IDE's often have the inbuilt capability to install and manage the programming language related software.

Browser based game with slidehopping. I like to call it the only non dead movement shooter.

Yeah.

I also occasionally use bookmarks bar as session save/restore, since firefox can open all bookmarks in a folder if you right click on it.

Firefox bookmarks are extremely versatile and underrated.

The respawns take forever

They take much less time now, but back when respawns took 10 minutes instead of 3, I used to do homework/work between rounds.

I got a TON of work done that way.

 

I find this hilarious. Is this an easter egg? When shaking my mouse cursor, I can get it to take up the whole screens height.

This is KDE Plasma 6.

Introducing Incus 6.7 (www.youtube.com)
submitted 1 month ago by moonpiedumplings to c/linux
 

Incus is a virtual machine platform, similar to Proxmox, but with some big upsides, like being packaged on Debian and Ubuntu as well, and more features.

https://github.com/lxc/incus

Incus was forked from LXD after Canonical implemented a Contributor License Agreement, allowing them to distribute LXD as proprietary software.

This youtuber, Zabbly, is the primary developer of Incus, and they livestream lots of their work on youtube.

Cuttle (en.m.wikipedia.org)
 

This card game looks really good. There also seems to be a big, open source server: https://github.com/cuttle-cards/cuttle

Alt Text: (For searchability): 3 part comic, drawn in a simple style. The first, leftmost panel has one character yelling at another: "@+_$^P&%!. The second comic has them continue yelling, with their hands in an exasperated position: "$#*@F% $$#!". In the third comic, the character who was previously yelling has their hands on their head in frustration, to which the previously silent character responds: "Sorry, I don't speak Perl".

Also relevant: 93% of paint splatters are valid perl programs

As of 10/1/24 3:52 UTC time, Trixie/Debian testing does not have a fix for the severe cupsd security vulnerability that was recently announced, despite Debian Stable and Unstable having a fix.

Debian Testing is intended for testing, and not really for production usage.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cups-filters, archive

So the way Debian Unstable/Testing works is that packages go into unstable/ for a bit, and then are migrated into testing/trixie.

Issues preventing migration: ∙ ∙ Too young, only 3 of 5 days old

Basically, security vulnerabilities are not really a priority in testing, and everything waits for a bit before it updates.

I recently saw some people recommending Trixie for a "debian but not as unstable as sid and newer packages than stable", which is a pretty bad idea. Trixie/testing is not really intended for production use.

If you want newer, but still stable packages from the same repositories, then I recommend (not an exhaustive list, of course).:

  • Opensuse Leap (Tumbleweed works too but secure boot was borked when I used it)
  • Fedora

If you are willing to mix and match sources for packages:

  • Flatpaks
  • distrobox — run other distros in docker/podman containers and use apps through those
  • Nix

Can get you newer packages on a more stable distros safely.

I couldn't get any of the OS images to load on any of the browsers I tested, but they loaded for other people I tested it with. I think I'm just unlucky. > > Linux emulation isn't too polished.

According to the archwiki article on a swapfile on btrfs: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Btrfs#Swap_file

Tip: Consider creating the subvolume directly below the top-level subvolume, e.g. @swap. Then, make sure the subvolume is mounted to /swap (or any other accessible location).

But... why? I've been researching for a bit now, and I still don't understand the benefit of a subvolume directly below the top level subvolume, as opposed to a nested subvolume.

At first I thought this might be because nested subvolumes are included in snapshots, but that doesn't seem to be the case, according to a reddit post... but I can't find anything about this on the arch wiki, gentoo wiki, or the btrfs readthedocs page.

Any ideas? I feel like the tip wouldn't just be there just because.

 

I've recently done some talks for my schools cybersecurity club, and now I want to edit them.

My actual video editing needs are very simple, I just need to clip parts of the video out, which basically every editor can do, as per my understanding.

However, my videos were recorded from my phone, and I don't have a presentation mic or anything of the sort, meaning background noise, including people talking has slipped in. From my understanding, it's trivial to filter out general noise from audio, as human voices have a specific frequency, even "live", like during recording or during a game, but filtering voices is harder.

However, it seems that AI can do this:

https://scribe.rip/axinc-ai/voicefilter-targeted-voice-separation-model-6fe6f85309ea

Although, it seems to only work on .wav audio files, meaning I would need to separate out the audio track first, convert it to wav, and then re merge it back in.

Before I go learning how to do this, I'm wondering if there is already an existing FOSS video editor, or plugin to an editor that lets me filter the video itself, or a similar software that works on the audio of videos.
