Ah, yes... the perfect example of "Everything I don't like is Hitler" and "If you type 666 you'll become Satan!".
If the game offers me a possibility of doing (something) for a (reward) -- I will do it if it is fun and engaging, not because of the reward alone. Which (somewhat) makes "the game play me", but hey... this can (also) be applied at every other situation in real life as well.
No love for the aarch64 eh?
Aw, dangit.
You are in an environment where the downvote button exists as a self-validation/relief method rather than flagging off-topic/unrelated/low-effort/etc content as "bad".
The majority are simpletons which (also) love simple stuff. That's why.
For when you are running an "obscure" distro and/or sbc (like say, dietpi and orange pi zero 3).
A "ez" solution would be simply stay on Windows and leave Linux as a novelty. A somewhat complicated solution -- double booting (apparently Windows can be a privacy nightmare even while dual-booting). A quite hard one would be installing Linux and running Windows on a VM with GPU passthrough. The "are you bleeping kidding me?" approach would be buying another PC just to run Linux while leaving your "main" PC for Windows.
"Is there a sane approach for this?" -- yep, there is! Which is, buying a console and use it solely for gaming while leaving your main PC for daily browsing and everything else (i.e Linux).
I've got a rpi 4 w/ 2 GiB of ram and it runs fine.
1- Clone this repo: https://github.com/NicoD-SBC/armbian-gaming
2- Run armbian-gaming.sh
3- Choose "install retropie"
4- Run "emulationstation" after installing
Orange pi zero 3 is arm-based and can be really viable for daily usage if you are into tinkering.
In a serious tone:
Attempt to do a minimal yet optimized install instead of a standard one while making it fully functional.
Just use whatever you want and never update.
I use both nano and vim, so eh
I'm typing this on my rpi 4 w/ 2GiB (with three tabs open on my brave browser w/ also a youtube video playing on the background) and its good enough as is for daily tasks.
Is it possible to use Linux without the command line? Yes. Should you do it? Definitely not.
A contrarian take, but nextdns. It may not block youtube ads, but eeeh it works really well for most cases.
Yes! This is more like it. Thank you.
Now to figure out a package that acquires the latest news out of a rss link and prints it in the cli.
Is there really a performance benefit to a gaming distro over a regular distro?
No. Gaming distro is a "regular" distro preconfigured for gaming.
Thank you for your explanation, but what I had in mind "in depth" was to "store" the latest news acquired from a rss link into a variable (say, $NEWS), and then display it all way down with -vf drawtext=text="''$NEWS':fontsize=etc:other:attributes"
followed by a scroll effect (to the left)... which I'm pretty sure its possible, but I don't know which package is appropriate for the former.
Title. Basically, a lower panel that shows the latest news, etc (fetched from a rss link or a sequence of rss links) while scrolling left (ala CNN). Why? I'm trying to make a "smart clock" of sorts that shows a live stream, a real time clock and -also- the latest news -- all crumbled together in a single screen.
I'm using a orange pi zero 3 w/ Dietpi installed. And due to the expected "crazyness" of this idea, I had to resort to you guys.
Thanks in advance.
Title. I'm trying to come up with a fully functional, optimal yet read-only scheme for fstab and I could use some pointers.
Thanks in advance.

Title. Is it the Logitech MX? Thanks in advance.
Title. Been using "conventional mouses" since a while, and I'm in the mood to try something new. Even so considering its a ergonomic mouse that won't screw my wrists even more while gaming(I'm over 40 y/o).
There are plenty of reviews for it on the internet (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_2wixvrWPg&pp=ygUVcmFnbm9rIG1vdXNlIDIgcmV2aWV3 for instance) but I'd like to hear some "real world" reviews about it.
Title. In other words, sbc recommended/optimal power supply is 5V4A but I use an 5V3A instead -- will it damage or kill the sbc? The reasoning behind this is "an direct undervolting towards the system, for lower power draw and temps".
Thanks in advance.
I know this seem like a typical "Your opinion man" post but honestly, is there anything really useful beyond hosting an adblocker? (read: complementary, not found elsewhere, that enhances own's personal needs and/or life as a whole). And yes, I'm aware of what can be hosted -- picture editors, video editors, webtops, dhcpcd, emulators, and so on.
But the question is -- why I'd need all that if these stuff can be found on any ordinary PC out there? Even phones. Hell, even on a smart tv. That is like "trying to reinvent the wheel" for no necessary purpose other than "to look cool". There's also "because its fun", but is it really fun doing pretty much the same thing over and over again? There isn't a "learning gap" between these hosting options -- all of em have (pretty much) the same procedure to get things running.
With that said... I've been trying really, REALLY hard to host more stuff but I can't go beyond hosting (only) an adblocker.
Title. Something that is minimal, has a daemon and a very KISS config file. Bonus points if it also has a "generic" setup (works for all pcs but its not optimal? So I could run this on my sbc.)
Thanks in advance.
-EDIT- Forgot to mention that I've got both AMD cpu and gpu.
Title. Basically, "if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby" where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the PC, etc.
Don't know if such command exists, but there you go.
Bonus points if its a standalone and supports X11, Wayland and Arcan.
Title. Asides from setting the whole disk to read-only. (It's not an option since apparently docker dislikes that for some reason.). I'm trying to increase my microsd's lifespan.
For instance, here's my current /etc/fstab
>tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,size=10M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/log tmpfs rw,size=10M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs rw,size=0M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/run tmpfs rw,size=0M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/spool tmpfs rw,size=0M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/lock tmpfs rw,size=0M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
> tmpfs /var/cache tmpfs rw,size=0M,nr_inodes=5k,noexec,nodev,nosuid,uid=gus,gid=notgus,noatime,mode=1700
Thanks in advance.
Title. Besides setting tmpfs to use 10GiB of it to store downloads.
Nothing too shabby, but still. To run it you need docker, and after that just type
docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --read-only --net none --cap-drop=ALL --security-opt=no-new-privileges defnotgustavom/pixfire4
...and you will be greeted with a little, small, very pixelated bonfire.
"Why docker and not just a simple command?"
Mostly because of those two flags: --read-only
and --net none
. Can't get better than this. :^)
This also came up while in a self-learning process, but I don't want to "flex" it here.
Title. Mostly because of two flags: --read-only
and --log-driver
.
Title. A cheat sheet for this would be lovely.
Thanks in advance.
Title. I'm trying to compile this but I can't seem to do so with node.js.
Thanks in advance.
Is there any difference from one another? I keep hearing that using chargers is absolutely a no-go and that power supplies are much safer and better overall. Do you guys confirm this?
Thanks in advance.
ser*, and said non-root user being "nonexistant" (i.e set via ENV)? Can such container -STILL- be exploited/breached through malicious means? Forgot to mention that its a DOCKER container @ title, but there you have it. Just curious.
Thanks in advance.
...and the logic behind this is a really simple one:
Lower cone of fire = CoF tightens faster while ADS'ing.
And the "long short story" behind this is that I saw this video, went for the same "I'm gonna try to mimick this" shenanigans and it worked. Hell, I even managed to down those typical "chain headshotting me like theres a magnet on top of my nose" players. And yes, more than once, even while completely rusty (It's my second day back in the game after a long hiatus.). Also had a couple situations where I died, but made the heavy wipe both of his shield ability and its "basic" shield (Not a normal occurrence before then, but right now it is.)
