I have a similar docker/podman alias, except I pull first. This greatly reduces downtime between down and up, which is nice for critical services.

The only problem with Telegram = IRC angle is that I can’t scroll up in IRC to see what I missed throughout the day. I legitimately would love to switch my friend group to a self-hosted IRC server, but chat history is important.

Strange, they do for me on Plasma Wayland.

It also depends on the domain name itself. I registered a domain recently, and it was much cheaper to go with .io than with .com.

That’s one of the cool things about the framework, though, just the fact that you can, because I swap my ports all the time. I use it to game on my big TV at home, but I almost never need an HDMI port on the go, so I pop it out and pop in another USB-C or something.

One of my company’s customers is a DoD contractor that uses the government version of Teams, which does require Chromium, unfortunately. Or at least, I haven’t found a way to make it work on Firefox yet.

I’m one of those weirdos who actually dumps all my own games with my own modded launch Switch mainly for preservation purposes.

But then TotK came out and performed so poorly on the console itself, I exported my save to play on PC and Steam Deck. Every part of my Switch emulation journey has been legal and by-the-book: dumped my own firmware, my own keys, and my own games.

Fuck Nintendo for bullying these developers.

IIRC, Samsung recently announced they’re moving to A/B partitioning as well.

Correct. Unfortunately, it’s something that each desktop environment or window manager has to implement themselves. But all the button is doing is moving some config files around, so you can probably do some digging to figure out what it’s copying to where.

This is the system settings application for the KDE desktop environment.

Literally yes. And you don’t even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.

Edit: Here are the problems with you “Wayland isn’t good enough” people.

First, you don’t use Wayland, so you don’t even know if it’s fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.

Second, Wayland won’t get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?

Not sure if you’re a troll, but if you’re serious, nothing I say is going to change your mind, so I won’t bother.

If you’re using Wayland, you can go to Settings -> Colors & Themes -> Login Screen (SDDM) and click “Apply Plasma Settings…”

If you’re using X11, it looks like you’ll have to resort to hacky scripts, unfortunately.

Oh nice! I just use Lutris, but options are always good.

So that file can go anywhere you want, but ~/bin is a good spot (or ~/.bin if you like a tidy home folder). You can name it whatever you want, but I’d personally name it steam.sh. And then in the Buddy settings, use that file as your new Steam binary.

What issues are you having? I may be able to help.

There’s a host app that runs on the host machine alongside Sunshine that reads your Steam library, and the Deck plugin adds an icon on each game’s banner on your Deck. When you click the icon, the plugin communicates with the host app and then automatically starts a Moonlight/Sunshine session that then starts up the game you were on. You only have to add one “app” to Sunshine and set up the MoonDeckBuddy app on the host, and then you have streaming for your entire library available.

This is dope, but I’ve been curious, what benefits are there to this? I know reproducibility can improve security by proving that the distro is delivering the packages they say they are, but is there anything else?

That’s fair if you go into desktop mode a lot.

It’s still usable, for sure. The Bazzite team back ported the WiFi and BT patches, so those function. But if you rely on reducing refresh rate to save battery like I do, that can be a big one.

The audio issue isn’t too big of a deal, you just have to do a full reboot to go back into game mode. Just takes a few extra seconds.

But if you already have an LCD, I see the wisdom in waiting for the team to iron out OLED support.
