  • You can always consider the experience of using Linux as a "game" itself and DU ET NAO!

    ...no really. Do it.

  • This is why I love linux

  • What is your linux backup strategy?

  • [Solved] This maybe a strange question but can I run a Linux app in a separate container/sandbox? Without its dependencies bloating my host OS?

    Jump

  • There is always firejail which is very "even your mom can use it" in terms of usage.

    e.g install it, type cd / && sudo firecfg, then your password and thats it.

  • animatrix: ascii animation + matrix effect in a terminal window

    Jump

  • Not by the slightest.

    ~You can see it by yourself right now if you have docker: `docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --cap-drop=ALL --read-only --net none --security-opt=no-new-privileges --name ascii-matrix defnotgustavom/ascii-matrix`~

    ~-EDIT- Whoops. Just realized its a fork. Eeeeeehhhh... it'll give you a nice idea regardless.~

    I actually created a new image with it -- docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --cap-drop=ALL --read-only --net none --security-opt=no-new-privileges --name animatrix defnotgustavom/animatrix

  • Nice! Hope you have fun with it.

    Jump

  • I'll try it on my Orange pi zero 3 just for giggles.

    -EDIT- I just did (straight from their site), and welp... 5 minutes to load a map, lots of stuttering yet performance was okay'ish ( ~25 frames per second). Not bad for a little board with only 1 GiB of ram and the power draw capped at 2W.

    -EDIT2- Nvm that, I grabbed the binary, ran it locally and the experience was much, much better. Absolutely playable.

  • The Dislike to Ubuntu

    Jump

  • Ub(loa)tu tries to cater to everyone whilst ending up in pleasing no one -- it has too much unnecessary clutter.

  • Best App Launcher on Linux

  • bemenu. Type stuff in popup, press enter, no confettis thrown on your face.

  • Firewalls: what SHOULD I block?

    Jump

  • In a nutshell,

    "What about firewalls?"

    Block from ports 1000 'till the very end (65565 if I'm not mistaken.) -- that is your "bread and butter" approach.

    "W-what if I'm using a port past 1000?"

    Nah, you (very likely) aren't and never will.

  • Would it be weird if I took something my neighbor put out for trash?

    Jump

  • Have you tried calling your neighbor out and asking him? "Hey! Can I take your shelf?". Takes like three seconds to sort this out.

  • Looks like we are about to see Crysis running "almost natively" on a rpi 5!

    ....eh?

  • How can we make Linux more appealing as "just works"?

    Jump

  • By telling users to change their mindset, by showing em how control is important and how the "just werks" mentality imposed by Microsoft is more detrimental than anything.

  • Is Linux (dumb)user friendly yet?

    Jump

  • So you are saying that dumbs can't read? Because hey, that is all it takes to troubleshoot a problem on linux.

    Thus, even your grandmother can "do google" nowadays.
