I've used PayPal in 4 a couple of times.

Budgeting pretty hard, sometimes it's easier to spread the load out over 4 weeks for something that would eat my whole weekly personal spendings in one swoop.

Did you get all that?

No

Yes

Can't wait for this service patch for windows users.

Mentioning clients LibreTube or PipePipe on android tick the boxes for me. Piped.video let me import my subs and gives me my subscription feed back, same login on LibreTube keeps things cross-platform which is nice

After paying for YTP Family for a number of years, their recent price increase was too much to warrant. I was happy paying ~$25 for multiple people but increasing to ~$35 was a massive jump.

Nah, I'd join random gaming discords over that future.

Saying that the good ol' America aren't doing the same is keeping your head in the sand.

*Big* Tech really falls into the devil you know vs the devil you don't. Their all shit sandwiches, take your pick or go hungry.

Not yelling at clouds, just being realistic.

About your connecting phones to cars, you'll have to allow perms as to what data is shared right? My 2011 VW has Android Auto, but no onboard Sim, how are VW making off with my data?

EDIT: Above between **, see below for further information.

Teslas were banned in areas of China for the same reasons as @[email protected] mentioned here. https://searx.tiekoetter.com/search?q=tesla+china+bans

To quote an article:

" Tesla cars face more entry bans in China as 'security concerns' accelerate. TAIPEI/BEIJING -- Tesla drivers in China are facing entry restrictions at more government-affiliated venues, including meeting halls and exhibition centers, due to data security concerns amid ongoing tensions between Washington and Beijing.24 Jan 2024 "

Cheers man, appreciate it. It's an awful mess rn, but an ever changing awful mess.

Ahh I tried to have herbstluft running before I had hypr running, but my Linux inexperience got me when I landed in a tty and couldn't run the wm.

Remote access into my personal machines isn't required outside of SSH, for work I remote into Windows machines using remmina without any issues. I ~was~ working on screen sharing in my config, in /hardware/audio/ but got distracted by the rest of my config.

Running Hypr for a while has really given me more insight into the "bloat" of modern desktop environments, NixOS too has pushed me further into that rabbit hole.

I mean, if your running Nix why not add another branch to your git and give it a twirl?

To break it down, tiling wm just.. manage windows.

Since I posted my config here it's changed quite a bit. If you wanted to rip out my hyprland.conf check /nixos/home/hypr/default.nix

There should be some home.file = text '' text here ''; with my config for the bones I use.

You should be able to decipher where these should live, but some of the values like ${spaghetti.user} or the nix-colors palette values won't work without too having that installed.

My first days of using hyprland went something like this:

What package would you need to change wifi configurations. You using NWM, IWD or WPA? Does that package have a GUI or are you comfortable using the terminal in TUI or typing configurations via commands, or editing files using vi / nano?

Oh, that package you just installed isn't running at boot, better add that to the exec once in hyprland.conf

Wait that package should be added as a service and not as the package?! Do I still need to enable the package or does services.foo.enable = true; handle that?

Home-manager sounds like a waste of time, why would I want refactor my config for the Nth time?

Man Home-manager makes configuring everything so easy, why was I doing everything manually before?

Wait I don't have a calculator installed? Why am I editing basic text files in Lite-XL? Oh, I'll need some scripts to change keyboard brightness, I could add a Dunst notification to foo.bar that would be cool! Man I wonder if this program let's me change XYZ?

It's become a lot 😅

~

Once I got out of that mess, picked some basic packages that fit my needs I moved onto... adding more packages, configurations, modules, hosts, theming support and so on.

For your gaming question, yeah it works great! If your using NVIDIA hardware read the wiki and add the suggested config options to hyprland.conf but it all should hit the ground running without much configuration. The closed drivers will perform much better in gaming.

If your on AMD Graphics just send.

Full screen games work fine, same with windowed.

If you've not tried gaming under Wayland you shouldn't really be too concerned, it works mostly fine these days under Steam / Proton. Expect ~some~ issues but it's always good to expect worse than you'll receive.

I guess the answer is money, but why would you do any handling of card details in-house. Having a third party process transactions passes to some degree ensuring security onto said third party.

I'd still doubt any risk of full card details being leaked unless the hack goes much deeper than just Epic.
