I can use VM maybe but I don’t want to pay for the Windows license.
If this is your only concern, there’s a script floating arround on github (MAS 104k *) that activate any Windows version.
Not sure I’m allowed to send any links because this could be considerate as piracy and probably isn’t allowed in this community.
But you have enough keywords to find your way with any search engine if that’s a route you would consider.
I dont know if this could be your issue, however I had some strange big black shadows arround GTK apps. After trying all different possible themes, playing arround with config files, CSS… Nothing helped.
However, on the Archlinux wiki, they mentioned something interesting: The compositor.
While this really depends what DE and what compositor is installed on your distro by default, I got rid off all the strangeness by enabling something in the compositor.
XFCE team here !!! Though I was kinda surprised they didn’t enable XFwm (as stated by arch linux wiki) by default and had some strange issues with GTK apps (big black shadow arround apps). Took me some time to figure that out.
If I had to chose I would probably go for KDE. Gnome is great and it’s nice to have alternatives that are so different and also up to date ! However, I hate GNOME’s design choice. I hate my Mac and Gnome feels to similar to even bother with it.
Every task required to leave the house makes me anxious :/ It’s really hard time for me rn but I can’t complain… I have everyday fresh food, clothes, shelter, comfy bed… Still, the world outside is scaring the shit out of me… I’m more comfortable in an environment without hoomans arround and on Lemmy :).
Thanks for the clarification ! It wasn’t clear to me what I was looking at first sight. I fought that was some self-hosted/DIY 10Gbs router/switch. Sorry if my question came the wrong way or was a stupid one. I’m just a curious guy !
Thanks for the additional information !!
Does 10Gb needs that much cooling?
M’y anxiety says No !
This is probably the best answer you will get OP ! I have done some encode (BD -> SVT-AV1) and everything FBJimmy said is everything I have gathered through my search on how to get the best quality/speed encode without loosing to much of fine details.
This won’t make you happy if what you want is to use GPU encoding, cauz this is for on the fly encoding (streaming via twitch, Youtube, whatever…). It seems a nice idea to do GPU encoding but CPU software encoding is way more efficient than GPU.
It seems You aren’t looking for quality video encoding, but more speedy encoding? If that’s the case, yeah GPU encoding seems the best idea here. But can’t help sorry…
Most of the encode I have done with ffmpeg on AV1 got arround 20fps ? Yes it’s slow, however I get near “lossless” quality with an acceptable file size to serve over Jellyfin. Also, I never heard someone mention that 80-90% CPU utilization is bad for your CPU if your temps are all right (over 80° seems a bit alarming). Sure if you’re doing video encoding every day, your CPU will suffer offer time, I mean that’s practically what they are build for… Processing information ! And like everything, the more you use it, the more it wears out (the same goes for your GPU…)
But I can understand your determination and hope you will find your way arround. I’m also stubborn when I want something to work the way I want.
If it’s a steam pirated game and already extracted, you can just create a dummy steam account, add the executable as non-steam game and run proton from steam (I had good success with proton experimental).
Everything else should be run via Lutris + wine prefixes (or whatever windows subsystem emulator you chose).
It’s fairly easy when you know what you’re doing but still not as easy as you imagine on Windows itself. I would say, most game run all right? I recently played The last of us I via lutris+wine prefixes. Some fps drops and 1 crash on a 5 hour session, seems pretty reasonable.
However, lutris + wine prefixes are harder to get right depending the wine version installed and what graphic options you want, it can get frustrating specially if you don’t know what game needs what windows trick (directx9, vscru2015…).
I had mostly good success rate with the staging version of wine (I think that’s what proton experimental on steam is) and doing it wrong, you can go from a burning messsy non playable game to something as smooth as on Windows.
So yeah, it involves more personal implication to get it right and yes it’s still harder to play pirated games on Linux than on Windows but easier than 5 years ago!
floppyfw : turn a floppy into a firewall
Wait what? :o
when my girlfriend’s build pipeline finishes
😂😂
Tell me how it went :) curious if it worked out !
Some people will probably disagree with me but I consider Debian stable as a server distribution not as a daily drive system.
Debian testing is probably the better choice if you want to daily drive Debian or consider or more up to date distro. If you’re relatively new to GNU/Linux, don’t bother with bleeding edge distros or exotics ones like Arch, EndeavourOS, Gentoo, NixOS…
If you find your way to distrowatch.com you will see EndeavourOS very high in the rankings, but it’s a rolling release distribution. While it’s easier to maintain/install than Arch, it has a learning curve and needs regular attention and reading the docs/forum.
I have seen a lot of people recommend the following:
If you only want to find duplicates give czkawka a try. It has a nice GUI too.
I don’t know how good it is for music duplicates I only used it to find duplicate pictures and worked very well !
Went 2 weeks there:
First week was only about diving and was probably the most beautiful thing I will ever see in my life.
Second week was about visiting the monuments and while they are astonishing cultural and historical bangers (except the pyramids which are impressive from the outside but just some dull stones in the inside) people living there (even those running restaurants or hotels) are invasive as fuck and not worthile your time…
However we also rentend an airbnb for 2 days and even if the room was clean it looked a bit gloomy but the guy was very nice and friendly we even ate a pizza with him and watched a local TV movie (some sharknado rip from their country XD). It was a way better experience than In a stared hotel with all commodities…
In general, going the tourist way is mostly a bad experience in every country.
Yeah… But not sure I2P could handle a big influx of new users over night. This will probably break the whole project if all the piracy community would switch.
But it’s very very slowly growing, I hope they are prepared for such a case.
As long as the EU doesn’t reinvent the wheel, why not? I mean if they are going to fork Linux and rewrite a EU-based linux OS, this would further divide the community and make issues and security a lot more wacky… Not sure this is a good idea.
Lutris + wineprefixes works great but most of the time it’s harder to configure and needs some search around the web to get it right !
Non-steam games with proton on steam works like nearly every time without to much hassle (if supported) !!
If you’re afraid of your account ban, create a dummy steam account only for your pirated games.
If you’re tired of python’s and venv issues, give miniconda a try. It solved most of my issues with dependencies and different python version in scripts.
It’s probably a skill issue regarding to pip/pipx/venv… But miniconda really made everything easier.
Didn’t knew that ! :/ I’m sure that wasn’t the case in the past (It was only called KMS at the time).
This is also why it still up and running on GitHub?
Edit: After a quick research I couldn’t find any info, do you have any reputable link to back your claims?
Edit2:
Where can I donate? MAS project doesn’t accept donations and it’s free. It’s because it’s a community project and involves many contributors, splitting donations is not practical, and also because profiting from piracy is not good.
