There are people reverse engineering the glasses right now (I have a pair):

github.com/wheaney/XRLinuxDriver

One of my longshot projects is to convert my framework laptop main board to exactly this. I basically use the glasses a lot more than the screen at this point (it’s more convenient at night before bed)

kelvie ,

Back during the WoW days (the flying mount expansion), every time I would walk home from Uni I’d think: “This would be a lot faster if I turned into a crow and flew over these houses”.

I played a Druid.

kelvie ,

By some definition. They have always been usable to some degree because I think animators or something use Linux commercially on Nvidia, and for gpgpu they are still top class on linux (nothing comes close)

They haven’t always been the best for gaming or desktop (Wayland) use though, since Intel and AMD opened up their drivers.

Arguably in my experience Nvidia has been far less buggy for the last 30+ years on x11, and with this change they may have finally reached parity on Wayland, haven’t tried it myself.

I never wait around while the car is charging (generally only charge at home), but this has been useful for waiting to board a ferry, actually being in the car on a ferry, and waiting for road closures to clear.

I also do have a steam deck, and this is basically the same thing but with a bigger screen.

kelvie ,

Just never read the comments.

kelvie ,

I guess you and I just have different tastes. I don’t think I’ve watched 1 hour+ videos that were just repeating, but the only ones I’ve watched that are that long are Dan Olson and Super Eyepatch Wolf.

With those I intend to watch half now and watch half later, but end up engaged enough to just watch them through in a single sitting

kelvie ,

Can anyone recommend one? I honestly haven’t played one since slay the spire, and loved it. My wife didn’t enjoy the music after a few hundred hours so I stopped playing a few years ago.

kelvie ,

Oh my god, I wish someone told me this before I installed Hyprland.

I stayed up till 3am configuring it, just like when I started:

  • Rimworld
  • palworld
  • dwarf fortress
  • that paperclip game

Composerize - online tool converts docker commands to compose yml (www.composerize.com)

I had an issue recently with getting FileBrowser to run and while researching that, I found this tool which creates a docker-compose.yml file from a docker run command. It worked well for me, so I am passing it along to you all. I hope someone else finds this helpful....

kelvie ,

I guess it’s finally to the point where selfhosters can admit to using k8s and not be bombarded by comments saying it’s overkill, which has happened in the past for:

  • Self hosting at all
  • Using VMs
  • Using containers
  • Using docker compose
  • Using k8s (⬅️ I guess we are here)
  • Using helm charts or whatever ends up replacing this

Anyway, I believe there is a tool also to turn docker compose files into k8s manifests if we want to take this a step further!

‘Mamma Mia!’ Stage Star Sara Poyzer Replaced By AI On BBC Show To Recreate Voice Of Dying Person — Update (deadline.com)

The BBC has issued a statement that offers important context to Sara Poyzer’s viral social media posts. The British broadcaster said it is using AI technology in a “highly sensitive documentary” to represent the voice of a person who is nearing the end of their life....

kelvie ,

Depending on this poster’s age, this statement could have very opposite meanings.

kelvie ,

Still, having this option can’t be a bad thing. Ultimately it’s an engineer (or PM I suppose) that decides to use this chip based on the product requirements.

Sometimes you want to fail closed, or purposefully fail catastrophically if some constraints aren’t met.

kelvie ,

I suppose if you really like tools, Makita counts as an entertainment franchise.

kelvie ,

Yeah I’ve enjoyed all the Pokemon games in the last decade (I also dropped over 100 hours in Palworld).

If you listen to the internet, however, we’re apparently what’s wrong with Pokemon, because we’re not allowed to enjoy it unless it’s perfect and lives up to to everyone else’s very specific expectations, but the sales figures don’t lie, there are certainly more than dozens of us!

kelvie ,

This doesn’t contradict what the OP said. ChatGPT is now an interface to both an LLM and a diffusion-based image generator.

kelvie ,

While somewhat niche, this seems like a great idea (for me it needs gyro or it’s a deal breaker though).

I already use a steam deck and xreal glasses to play, so it’d be great to remove some dead weight (mostly streaming 120fps 1080p from my desktop computer via moonlight/sunshine)

kelvie ,

Yes, I ask it random things like “is X food dog safe” or how many g of protein is in whatever food.

Or even general knowledge stuff like “how do covalent bonds work”

kelvie ,

I mean didn’t we all do this when phones started autocompleting sentences like a decade ago? (Or however long it was, time perception is fickle)

kelvie ,

Kitty supports images, not sure about alacritty, although there are many competing protocols for image display in a terminal emulator, so it could be that it just doesn’t support a particular program.

kelvie ,

I think you’re confusing a window manager with a tiling window manager.

kelvie ,

I don’t know all the details, but isn’t it set up to be some type of not for profit corporation to prevent that? Though I guess OpenAI is also not profit, but I was hoping it’d be more like Signal to stave off enshittification

kelvie ,

I use sunshine and moonlight. It’s designed for games but works far better because of it, as in if it’s good enough for games, the latency will be far better than other RDP protocols.

It doesn’t do clipboard sharing though.

kelvie ,

There are some advantages to a centralized platform, I hope them being a “public benefit corporation” (haven’t had time to study what that means nor much desire cause it’s probably a U.S. thing), but as long as it doesn’t get enshittifed that’s still a net win.

Although obviously this won’t be a popular opinion on a decentralized platform like Lemmy.

I’ll use this along with Signal (which is non profit), in hopes that it’s impossible for them to sell out/sell our data/sell ads.

kelvie ,

I’ve recently started replacing most of my shell usage with org mode and babel, along with GitHub copilot and similar LLM backed tools it’s like autocomplete on steroids

kelvie ,

Drag a selection box around it, or use ctrl. Or right click.

Streaming games using Sunshine (the gamestream implementation) now works a lot better on nVidia/wayland (github.com)

Yes, yes, I know, buy AMD, but I already have nVvdia to use CUDA, but this new patch on the nightly branch (on arch, you can use sunshine-git but with my patch here: aur.archlinux.org/packages/sunshine-git) finally makes it so that I don’t have to “dual boot” into X11 to get game streaming at full performance....

kelvie OP ,

I use yay so I just go to ~/.cache/yay/sunshine-git after the failed build and change the PKGBUILD, then use makepkg -si to build and install it.

You can use the patch command to apply the diff.

kelvie ,

I think your brain probably wanted to say “home remedy”.

"Must Try" distros and DEs?

Hey folks! I’m getting a fresh laptop for the first time in about a decade (Framework 16) in a couple of months and am looking forward to doing some low-level tinkering both on the OS and hardware. I’m planning to convert into a “cyberdeck” with quick-release hinges for the screen since I usually use an HMD, built-in...

kelvie ,

If you’re a tinkerer it’s kind of addicting. I thought I’d give it a try just to see what it was like, and ended up staying up all night customizing it, and now about a month later I don’t really want to go back to KDE (been using KDE for almost 20 years)

kelvie ,

Don’t know why, but this title just made me realize that King Arthur and Robin Hood are both brands of flour.

kelvie ,

If this can handle routing 10g this is a great choice to use as a router. It’s actually quite difficult to find a gateway that’s around this price and ISPs (at least here in Canada, or my part of Canada) are offering internet over 1Gbps at the same price as gigabit, but their routers are awful.

kelvie ,

Even Intel has these. I think this patch set goes a bit further and takes into account the silicon lottery differences between cores (according to the patch series)

I’m using the patch set on my framework 7840u and didn’t notice a difference though, though this is really YMMV.

kelvie ,

I didn’t measure performance, I was talking about battery life, but no, I didn’t do any benchmarks.

kelvie ,

Proxmox is a lot more user friendly than virt-manager (yes I’ve used both, but I just started using proxmox).

kelvie ,

Curiously, what did you want to see?

A lot of us just treat this like the Superbowl and watch it just for the ads.

kelvie ,

Isn’t that the difference here? Here we are choosing to watch ads – more specifically I want to learn about new games coming out, versus ads that I don’t, such as on most websites, YouTube, my TV, billboards, apps, etc.

kelvie ,

So I don’t get it, I have my entire boot image in a signed EFI binary, the logo is in there as well. I don’t think I’m susceptible to this, right? I don’t think systemd-boot or the kernel reads an unsigned logo file anywhere. (Using secure boot)

kelvie ,

That’s… Stored in the EFI partition or changeable in userspace?

kelvie ,

Right, I know EFI images are stored in the EFI partition, but with secure boot, only signed images can be executed, so they’d need to steal someone’s signing key to do this.

kelvie ,

While it is good to be cognizant of this, playing AAA games for the same amount of time as the inference (a few seconds ?) is the same as this, right? Since they use the same GPU on consumer hardware.

kelvie ,

Have you tried playing with the flow control settings on your ubiquiti switch? I was having problems streaming video games until I toggled that setting (forget if it was on or off, though).

kelvie ,

Are these just Clevos or another OEM? Or a custom design by Tuxedo?

kelvie ,

An opposing viewpoint here, from a couple of rice snobs – I’ve spent 30+ years (my entire life) with a rice cooker so I’ve never questioned not owning one.

Ours broke (the gasket did, after 10 years), and the company that made it no longer exists (Sanyo), so we tried just cooking rice on the stovetop for a year before we bought a new one. It’s now been 2 years without a rice cooker, and we don’t plan on buying one of those fancy Korean ones I’ve been eyeing.

We found the rice tastes better (a bit of burning at the bottom adds flavour), and we don’t need another appliance taking up space. The only thing I miss is the keep warm functionality, but now we just freeze the leftover rice and microwave it (or make fried rice with it).

And now we have more counter and cupboard space to buy other gadgets, as we’re cooking enthusiasts.

For large amounts of rice we luckily have a pressure cooker.

Linux Audio Nerds, Take Notice — The Fedora Audio Creation SIG is being revived (discussion.fedoraproject.org)

If you use Linux to edit audio, mix songs and work with audio in general, including having trouble making certain audio hardware work, it’s your chance to join a community effort to make Linux audio creation better and more accesible....

kelvie ,

You didn’t have to tweak PIPEWIRE_LATENCY or adjust the latency in guitarix? In my setup the latency isn’t great out of the box.

kelvie ,

I’ve heard the, but I think these tests don’t take into account things like UV exposure. All the OLED devices I own (phone, TV) have burn in, and I think it’s due to our large windows in our apartment.

kelvie ,

I’ve used Linux for over two decades (red hat to Gentoo to Ubuntu to arch) and I must say it’ll be a tough sell to get me back to an RPM or a debian based distro solely due to how god awfully slow the package managers (dpkg and rpm) are.

Since Docker came along and brought with it the ride of Alpine and APK, it made me realize that system upgrades on a modern processor, fast internet, and an SSD should take seconds, not minutes.

kelvie ,

Or just pay Kagi. If you’re not paying they’re gonna have to get their money somewhere, and search is expensive.

kelvie ,

My partner has always commented that she wanted basically a dashcam but for while walking the dog, so this seems to fit the bill.

To basically catch e.g. if a cyclist hits you or something.

Only somewhat related, but I’m pretty sure that photo is from the law courts in Vancouver, Canada, and the spelling makes me suspect it’s AI generated.
