Is that what libhoudini is? I heard of it, but don't recall if I installed it

Did it work out of the box for you? Doesn't load for me on either of my machines that have waydroid

Stremio & Real Debrid is soooo much easier than the self hosted approach, and is a piece of piss to set up

This y axis placement is quite common for stock tickers. I suppose it is intended to make it easiest to see the most up to date price, which is the pertinent information for most readers. Similarly, the y axis starting at zero is conventional wisdom for scientific data, but I suppose the most relevant visual for stocks is the price fluctuation, which is best viewed with y autoscaling over the selected timeframe.

You are dead on. That post absolutely fucking reeks of AI. I want to say if you can't smell it a mile off you're an absolute cretin, but there are probably millions of people who've never really spent much time with LLMs and would be easily fooled by this garbage

I actually thought everyone knew that you shouldn't flush wipes down the toilet. Ours are always disposed of in the household waste

They are the only practical solution for changing a baby. If legislation is introduced that means they have to be biodegradable, it's a massive step in the right direction.

Anyone tried blendOS with microsoft surface? in c/linux

[–] 1111 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Thanks! I actually decided to give up on Blend and try Nobara, which integrates the required surface kernel changes out of the box. I chose the version with KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and have had no bother getting Waydroid to run. I'm actually having a blast using a machine with full Android and full Linux functionailty

Anyone tried blendOS with microsoft surface? (self.linux)

Hi all, I have an old surface SP7 that I want to wipe and install linux on. I've been having fun playing with Waydroid on my other machine, but it is running Mint and the wayland implementation is not very mature. Obviously for a touch screen device being able to run android apps is really beneficial.

I learned about blendOS and it seems like a fun distro to try, looks like waydroid is set up nicely out of the box. Looks cool being able to install packages for all linux flavours. But I wonder if it being immutable will make it more difficult to install the surface kernel. I'm sure its possible, but I don't want to spend forever messing about with it.

Separate question, anyone had success running GApps on BlendOS waydroid? It was trivial when manually installing, but looks like Blend's preconfigured to use Aurora or F-droid only

Avatar is cursed for remakes like Fantastic Four in c/microblogmemes

[–] 1111 12 points 9 months ago

I think another issue is that when telling the Avatar story, all the main characters are necessarily children, and the themes of the show require some really hefty acting chops to deliver lines convincingly.

I can't fathom why they didn't tell a new story in the Avatar universe, or at least remake TLoK where the main cast are a bit older.

Window snapping (self.linux)

submitted 1 year ago by 1111 to c/[email protected]

Hey guys, I've been running Mint on my home computer for a little while now and I'm having a great time, however there's one behaviour from Windows I'm missing. When you hit win + arrows to snap the currently focussed window to the left or right half of the screen, windows will present a dialogue to select a companion window for the other half of the screen from your other floating windows. Does anyone know how best to implement something like this? I tried a tiling WM like i3, but that's a bit more... involved than what I'm looking for. Thanks!

HA autodiscovery (self.homeassistant)

Hey guys,

I'm having some trouble getting back into home assistant. I was running fine on an RPi with HA in docker, but during some tinkering on another project broke the whole thing and it was easier to start from scratch.

Since last time though, I've installed a mesh WiFi system (TP link Deco). These are running in Access Point Mode. My new HA is up and running again, but hasn't auto discovered anything. I recall being surprised last time by the amount of things it found and how easily. I think there are some network settings preventing proper auto discovery, can anyone give me any tips?

Thanks in advance!

Networking Help (self.selfhosted)

I just installed a mesh WiFi network in addition to my ISP-provided router that could barely reach upstairs. I had some locally hosted services set up as per Mediabox. All containers were set up with my machine IP(?) 192.xxx.x.xx and were working great inside my network, which is all I wanted to do while I'm learning. I noticed today that if I connect via the other, mesh WiFi network that this IP can't be accessed, despite it being the same machine. What's going on?

All advice much appreciated as I am (obviously) a self hosting novice!
