Edit: Is streamdeck on linux just trash? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Edit: As of five minutes ago, I am aware that there is no official ui for the elgato stream deck which is a huge disservice to the users of this expensive piece of hardware. I was under the impression that streamdeck-ui was the official (and very outdated) official version, which is false. Those who bothered to explain this,...

RandomLegend ,

You still have to learn that the looks of an UI have absolutely nothing to do with its functionality.

You can asign scripts to each button, and you can write literally anything into a script. So the possibilities are endless. There is nothing you can’t do with that

RandomLegend ,

i don’t want the same options as i do have on windows, i actually PREFER the options on linux.

I don’t want developers wasting time in creating “oh-so-beautiful” UIs that makes things unnecessary slow and sluggish. Especially when the program we talk about isn’t even the one you primarily use; It’s the program you open once to configure, and then every now and then to add something…

In the times of ChatGPT that is absolutely capable of writing bash scripts for linux for everything you tell it to…the possibilities are endless for EVERYONE. You can find scripts for literally everything you can imagine online. And if you ask nicely in some communities so that someone writes you a quick script for whatever you need, you have everything you can imagine. More than on windows ^^

I don’t want to bash on you here, but you will see that you can do so much more with scripts on linux (and that they are quite easy to find / learn) than you can do on windows. You can automate soooooo much stuff with the press of a single button on your streamdeck. I do so with mine, it’s amazing

RandomLegend ,

Most of big companies don’t bother to make UIs for linux. You will come across this more often in the future.

Community-made is the way to go in 90% of usecases on linux. And i had so much more fun and success when using those programs, compared to the official windows counterparts. Because bug reports or feature requests i made on github for those projects, actually get answered by the programmers. They actually talk with me, listen to what i want to say, and in many cases even fulfilled my wishes for features.

I never ever in my life, had a programmer from a big company answer my feature requests… This was the moment i realized that i prefer this so much more.

It is a massive change, yes. And most people don’t really like it in the beginning. Many people will get accustomed with it sooner or later but there will always be people who don’t want to embrace this way. And that’s okay - Windows is and always will be an alternative for those.

RandomLegend ,

Blender, obs, firefox, element, libreoffice all have big open source backgrounds and philosophies. Steam just went full on linux mode with the steamdeck - So that those all look and feel fantastic are no wonder. VS Code; Obvious aswell - Linux is the most popular OS to program on and even Microsoft uses it… so that they make a nice version of it also no wonder. Linphone, idk

But all of these comes from big markets and the companies you listed here (besides microsoft and steam) are the “alternative”. Firefox the alternative to chrome, element to discord, etc.

The streamdeck, is a niche market. It’s not used by “that” many people. Yes it’s popular, but far far far away from being as often used as firefox for example. So that the company that has closed-source backgrounds in a niche market where literally no alternative exists doesn’t provide a nice UI for the alternative OS… no wonder.

And btw, you were dogpiled on because you called the project trash… Not because you were asking yourself why it doesn’t look as good as on windows.

RandomLegend ,

I agree with you, but on the other hand i can see why people might think you call it trash…unlucky wording.

RandomLegend ,

Fun weekend project for the whole family !

RandomLegend ,

Let your kids compile the kernel! It’s super easy and fun, rated for ages 2-99.

What is your go to music grabbing solution?

I’m looking for a YR-DLP GUI for just music, or a good way to access music in general. I had a lidarr-on-steroids instance running but it kept disconnecting from deezer and i’d love to get that back up and running but it looks like it’s not supported any more. Yt-dlp looks like a decent enough plan B, but i’m open to...

RandomLegend ,

Anyone who still financially supports Ubisoft is at their own fault at this point.

According to phoronix, no issuee at all. Everything runs fine

3d modelling and slicing software for Linux

Hi y’all! This may be a stupid question, but here it goes anyways: I’m thinking of trying to install Linux on a laptop that’s getting slow because of a bloated Windows install. I basically only use it for some internet browsing and 3D modelling (Fusion360) and slicing for my 3D printer (Cura). Is such software available...

RandomLegend ,

Fusion360 runs und er Linux.

Its a oneclick installer in bottles. You can find a more manual approach in the crinklyfly github page for that.

It runs 90% and absolutely gold enough.

Cura, Superslicer habe Linux builds

Never heard of it… Always used on the spot

Is it better?

What's the best way to get German content?

I’ve recently got the arrs under my command and they work great with with qbittorrent and prowlarr for public trackers. But since there’s almost no public German trackers, there is just use et or private trackers. Getting into a private tracker seems hard and I have never used usenet before, so what is the best course of...

RandomLegend ,

scenenzbs

houseofusenet

RandomLegend ,

I literally wouldn’t pirate anything if it weren’t for scenenzbs (and houseofusenet because they sync their nzb over to scene for the API-Users).

They have everything i want in german and top quality. Never ever have i had such a complete german collection of movies and shows and audiobooks. My wife and i are into audiobooks and they have 99% of the stuff we want.

For everything else i download the .aax file from audibile with another 30 day test account and grab my activation bits to convert to .aac^^

RandomLegend ,

Fantastic choice.

I’m in Garuda for over a year now and never looked back!

RandomLegend ,

i’m using Autosync to backup my files on my NAS every day. It doesn’t require Root therefore it can’t create “real” backups that you could restore from. It can only copy the files from your Phone; Pictures, Files, etc.

RandomLegend ,

Hater. Hannah Montana Linux is a masterpiece

RandomLegend ,

i’ll never understand why people are still playing EA shitsport “games” overpriced casinos aimed at kids & teenagers

RandomLegend ,

You could install Overseerr which also integrates nicely into sonarr & radar

It doesn’t have a TV app though.

RandomLegend ,

Yeah but you have to delve into developer tools and build the app from source for TizenTV

That was the reason I went with Plex instead of jellyfin for me

RandomLegend ,

I’m an admin of an instance and the reports I see from our users on “unmoderated” communities haunt me to this day…

I can 100% guarantee you that any community that has zero to no moderation WILL turn into a Nazi and CSAM cestpool.

There is no if, only a when…and that when is answered with “very quickly”

RandomLegend ,

Hey buddy, you should calm down a bit. Not a single person will take anything you say serious if you present it with such a hostile attitude.

Of course anyone can talk freely here, but you should really consider your manners when conversing in our communities.

RandomLegend ,

I’m on 1.2 and still have the downvote. Don’t know what your settings are.

RandomLegend ,

Currently have 2x8TB & 2x18TB in a ZFS vdev config on TrueNAS. So usable space is ~22TB and i store everything i load on there until it’s really really not important anymore.

RandomLegend ,

Would be a shame if someone would squeeze between the trunk amd the wall…while not caring about any metal piece sticking out

RandomLegend ,

Yeah but you can get Business Edition for free for 3 nodes.

I use it on my 3 Servers for absolutely free.

RandomLegend ,

If you do, check out plexamp.

You can self host a small Plex server on a raspberry pi and store all the music there. Play via plexamp and Plex does all the metadata for you

RandomLegend ,

The eternal debate, Jellyfin vs. Plex 😀

I tried both, i prefer Plex (also because my TV doesn’t have a Jellyfin App and i don’t want to have another mini-PC just to play Jellyfin on my TV)

RandomLegend ,

Yup, got the 20% off of lifetime a couple months ago.

Didn’t regret it.

RandomLegend ,

Who the duck cares about diablo immortal anymore?

AI section for megathread

who else thinks this is a good idea just wondering like i know their is parts on there for ai but they are just there its not been sorted properly for the megathread like i would love to see an AI section that is dedicated to the uncensored cracked or otherwise pirated AI stuff that would be pretty cool anyone else think this...

RandomLegend ,

uncensored cracked or otherwise pirated AI stuff

What do you mean exactly? Like give me some examples 😀

RandomLegend ,

GPU renting sites don’t censor you at all.

Runpod.io for example, you can just rent a GPU per the hour, train your own model and you’re good to go. I mean as long as you don’t upload criminal stuff (CSAM, etc.) you can train what you want on there.

Otherwise, training your own models will become easier by the day for home hardware. Look at fast it went for Image AI to be able to train your own model. You can do that with 12GB or even 8GB afaik now. I don’t think it’ll take very long until you can just let your 8GB card chuck away at some training data.

RandomLegend ,

Well you wont find any “pirated” GPU host… Its nothing that can really be pirated because we’re talking about hardware here.

Afaik google colab has enough VRAM to train and they don’t really at the source material you put in there (again, as long as you don’t trigger any CSAM filters or so)

RandomLegend ,

do you daily-drive this?

If yes, how is it? Like do you feel like it hinders you more? Or is it better for your daily usecases compared to android?
