I was also thinking it, but the thought of "building your walls up so high, that you eventually don't know what is really happening around you" might become problematic. I am still thinking of how to implement it, I think such a projects is worth the effort, especially if you have full control of what you want to view.

Lolz, it is crazy what one needs to do to prevail sanity these days

Selfhosted or not, you can also make keepassxc portable with a usb drive.

Here is a old thread from redit explaining how to do it:

Dude.... KeepassXC has portables for linux, there is no need to mess with wine or mono. As long as you have both portable versions of KeepassXC, you will not have a problem. You can totally have your database sync between OSs.

  • For Linux, just get the AppImage for the portable.
  • For Windows, get the Portable ZIP archive.
  • Shove them both into a USB, you have KeepassXC portable for both OSs on a stick.

What engineering software do you use with bottles?

A wiped ssd, damn... what os were you running? Maybe you have to go to the linux mint forum. They are maintaining the timeshift app, maybe you can get advice from them. Good luck

I normally use timeshift only to snapshot the system on a daily basis, and if I am not certain what my "fiddling" will do with my operating system, I make a manual snapshot on timeshift before I proceed with what I will do.

In your case I'll copy anything that is important you have, and restore to a earlier version you know it works and call it a truce, after that, I'll suggest just to snapshot your system and not home folder

First time hearing of that, how does it compare with autocad?

[–] slimsalm 1 points 1 year ago

Brickscad might be the only "proper" cad solution out there imo

I think South Africans need to be very mindful of what is currently happening. I believe there is more than what the naked eyes see, here is a few perspectives of some pod casters that have interviewed quite a few people this past year or two:

At the end of the day, you need to do your own research and validate what is truth. Be wise and be blessed

That will be a welcoming change, cant wait for lmde6 to arrive

 

Hello fellow lemmers, who of you had a chance to install Cubeos and play around with it? is it something worth installing on a laptop, (assuming you have a beefy one). How does Cubeos treat Nvidia integrated graphics?

For me its history repeats itself with dos and msdos.

I like your thinking, I have a dual boot on laptop with windows 11 and LMDE installed, and its been a while since I booted to windows for personal use. Unfortunately for me I am still dependant of windows until Autodesk decides they will create the software I use for the linux environment as well. Until then, I'll rock on with personal "freedom" of linux, while I'm a slave to the corporate / microsoft

 

Good day, I have some really hard time getting my GPU passed through to a VM, my current host is Linux Mint 21.1. The bios setting is fine, but for some reason I get a black screen every time the VM starts. I have narrowed it down to the startup hook script, where it is stuck (meaning it wont do the following) when it is doing the ‘virsh nodedev-detach’ instruction.

virsh nodedev-detach pci_0000_09_00_0 virsh nodedev-detach pci_0000_09_00_1

I’m not sure if the card itself have limitations, or is it LM. Just want to confirm whether I am wasting my time on this card? Or if it is the combination of both Linux and my GPU I’m basically try to do a single GPU pass-through with scripts that will release GPU from host and pass through to VM, till the VM is shut down, then the host have control over the GPU again.

Did anyone attempt to install autocad on lutris, if so what was your experience?
