[Weekly thread] GNU+Linux help thread: ask anything!
  • Yeah, I’ve been testing nouveau with NVK+zinc. Can definitely confirm that the Nvidia open source drivers are getting better and it’s happening fast. Desktop experience is nearly flawless now except quite a few games still don’t work and Nvidia specific features are disabled(cuda, rtx, dlss). AMD is def the way to go for a good experience on Linux.

    I’m just hoping to see things change seeing as Nvidia hired the nouveau maintainer and he has been contributing directly to nouveau using his Nvidia provided email here as of late.

  • Linux Server OSes?
  • Debian is a pretty safe choice overall but and I’m sure I’m going to get downvoted like crazy but arch has been a fantastic server OS for me for a while. Debian is pretty hands off but I have some pretty unorthodox requirements/hardware setups and the combination of the wiki and such a wide range of packages supported has enabled me to use the hardware to its fullest potential. Also rolling release lts kernel is pretty dope.

  • Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative?
  • It’s not an Android app but ServerCat is the best multi device monitoring/ssh software for mobile that I’ve come across. Sadly none of the alternatives on iOS or Android compare. Totally room for a proper competitor that fits a lot of information in an intuitive and clean ui.

  • What Radicalized You?
  • Unhoused genuinely seems like a tip toe attempt to make saying homeless less ugly or like it’s a word to sidestep bs YouTube guidelines like unalive. It’s dumb. Not having a home sucks.

    If I were to pick between the two then “dehomed” explains it better than “unhoused”. But “homeless” definitely defines what it feels like when it happens to you.

  • Back to the studio!
  • To add to this. Both parties told all other creators that all music that was made in this dispute would not be subject to copyright claims. So far all claims made from Kendrick’s label have been dropped which has allowed critics to listen freely and even remix and make work from the original work. Drake said the same was going to be the case for what he put out however in typical fashion Ovo/umg has claimed all content that contains any of drakes source material. I’m generally not into this kind of public beef but in basically every regard Kendrick is right and Drake is pretty much the most pure example of everything that is wrong with the music scene today.

  • Apple is officially dropping iPhone support for web apps in the EU - The Verge
  • As a sysadmin and self-hoster this decision will absolutely make me drop Apple 150%. A clean and well implemented pwa was a big reason I have stuck with my iPhone 12 despite buying a pixel 7. I know there are options on Android but they all have issues either in ux or in ui that makes it very obvious I’m using a pwa.

  • The Google messaging update looks bad. It reminded me I purchased textra a while ago.
  • Pinephone pro had awesome cell coverage. Better than my pixel 4 xl even. Now battery life is a totally different story. I’d last I tried was pretty awful too as phosh wasn’t amazing and plasma mobile would kill itself often. It’s been at least a year since I last used any of it though since I left it 5 states away.

  • Raspberry Pi is preparing for an IPO in London for likely more than $500M
  • Pine64 has a Quartz64 based compute module that uses the same Pin layout as CM4. I have 2 of them but I was a bit too early on the project last time I tried it. There was no official distro or kernel support at the time but it seems like things have gotten better.

  • I want to get started with *arr apps - here are all the things I don't understand about (reverse-/)proxies and networking in order to get it set up.
  • Tons of good responses here. I’m surprised that nobody has brought up Tailscale though. It’s def the easiest vpn solution I have found. It’s got some great documentation and how to projects to get a home lab running and it’s got its own domain system baked in most of it being zero configuration. You can access mullvad vpn exit nodes straight from it, and set up those domains with ssl super easy e.g.

    sudo tailscale serve —https=443 localhost:8096

    That single command would allow any other devices connected to your Tailscale account to reach your Jellyfin using the domain “{serverhostname}.[tail-scale].ts.net” complete with a private reverse proxy and ssl cert.

    There are a few things to click around in tailscale on but it’s a extremely easy to use free application that has made my self hosted life significantly easier due to my system living behind multiple firewalls that I sadly have no control over.

  • What is causing rounded Corners on my prints?
  • I can only add 2 things that I know of here that could help.

    #1.Try a linear advance tune. That alone should give you sharper corners and more consistent details at higher print speeds.

    https://marlinfw.org/docs/features/lin_advance.html

    #2.A direct extruder can help with getting very precise sharp corners but from what I understand it will hurt with accuracy on curves. Also there is the whole fact that there is a motor on top of the hot end so weight and whatnot will hurt speed.

    Anyway just check out #1. It should help with your issue. If not that then a feed rate tune would solve any over extrusion problems.

  • Thank you Lemmy!
  • I never got to try the m8 but the htc one m7 was my favorite phone of all time. Such a unique and simple all metal design. Incredible speakers for the time and most importantly it fit perfect in my hand. I really wish they was still around as a phone manufacturer.
