@Rustmilian @dingdongitsabear the most epic response aside haha folks that say your content is shit won’t watch are just wasting too much of their time on this earth being mad.
Really glad to see all this really nice work in the quality of life stuff happening in Wayland.
@radix @MrSoup yeah … Apple didn’t release any specs for their stuff so the @AsahiLinux team had to reverse engineer everything.
@ceciline02 in a recovery mode what is the error when you try to mount the file system?
@hiddengoat @original_reader @LastYearsPumpkin @Grangle1 @Xatolos yikes. Troll much?
Pipewire fixes a lot of issues and is a huge improvement. The best part of OSS and Linux is its the upstart, the underdog, the do-it-for-the-love, the chronically underfunded, hacker os. You’ll find things not as polished as the proprietary alternatives but that’s okay. There’s far more to enjoy: auditable code, open to contributions, infinitely customizable
@lemmyreader @barbara it’s a bit annoying but I kinda like that I have to manually link it a bit. So I create sh scripts in the usr/local/bin that just execute the flatpak run command
@originalucifer @blackstampede if you can just do software raid and if possible get the disks to look like JBOD (just a bunch of disks) CPUs are so much faster these days software raid even ZFS offers so much more than hardware raid.
@amphetaminisiert @fbsz i3 was so intuitive (long time Vim user) that I ditched macOS for Linux because of it.
@jollyrogue that would be ideal. I think it does. I have to install the 6.2.9 devel package to get ZFS installed on my 6.4.15 kernel which is insane that it actually works.
@ceciline02 you can pipe dmesg into less I think. Dmesg | less and then use the forward slash to search but also you can use the up and down arrows to go up and down.
@woelkchen @Ineocla rocm really that bad?
@jollyrogue @ace yeah. A spin of fedora that included ZFS in the kernel and kept it in line with upgrade without having to pin your kernel to avoid it breaking would be awesome.
Currently I’m on 6.4.14 I think and when dnf upgrade removes the ZFS module to install the latest 6.14 kernel I just install it again and it removes the 6.4 devel package installs like 6.2 devel and ZFS and the module still loads even on a 6.4 kernel. Go figure. Lucky I guess.
@gearheart @Jezebelley can you emulate that by doing a cat on whatever file the ACPI or whatever subsystem handles battery levels? Maybe a script with a sleep to not hammer the level check all the time and then piping that somehow into the status bar?
@zhenbo_endle @tanja you can install deb software in a seamless way using toolbox https://catalog.redhat.com/software/containers/rhel8/toolbox and a very simple Debian container
@mjpc13 @cyclohexane that’s impressive. Would mean the laptops should also be supported ? Was it hard to do?
@Tick_Dracy @WbrJr ZFS snapshots and boot environments could probably do this. Not sure about the usb thing though. @allanjude (tagging Allan so I don’t besmirch ZFS too much).
@exanime @boredsquirrel ehh macOS has really polished software. It can also run a lot of the open source software Linux gets. Media seems better on it. Rogue Amoeba makes some legit stuff. But it’s more or less tied to the hardware. If it were open I’d run Linux on it and im hoping Asahi gets us there. macOS also a bit more user friendly focused. 🤷🏾♂️
@pukeko that’s wonderful to hear. I got an M3 max (a huge stupid purchase I agonized about for a month before convincing myself I earned it lol) coming in just 10 or so days. But M3 support is behind M2 for now. And I don’t fault them for it. I’ll wait patiently for it to work.
My dream would be a finger print reading immutable Fedora running Sway with full disk ZFS encryption.
@ceciline02 when you execute those commands — not even sure if this would help — does dmesg say anything? Even before you go to mount them on boot maybe dmesg might say something about the disks? Or any log in var log?
@fernandu00 @terminhell I mean a simple grep to filter them out could have sufficed and then that could be aliased but yeah makes sense. Also zsys and their half assed ZFS integration made no sense.
@boredsquirrel @swooosh not having to reboot would make this finally useable to me!
@InverseParallax @chevy9294 whoa LXC / LXD since it uses virtualization means one can rock their own kernels? Hmmm
@Jezebelley this is the one I’d get: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/ryzen-7000-zen-4-linux-laptop
@mjpc13 this would be an amazing blog if you wrote it up. Front page HN content right here. Very cool stuff. Thank you for sharing.
@originalucifer @blackstampede I’d rather ZFS for the data integrity stuff than anything else.
@luciferofastora @nyan I love me some gentoo. But the idea of eeking out significant speed improvements by compiling a very package from scratch is just not going to appeal to many people.
@Hairyblue @Uluganda yeah I care less about a Linux native game than a game that has DRM and anti cheat that works with proton. I’ve found that all the games I play on Linux that run on proton run so well on X11 (haven’t gone to Wayland yet).
