  • I don't run MicroOS myself so take this with a grain of salt. But this is usually how I do it, though there might be a better practice out there for this too.

    Afaik, MicroOS by the sound of it, only ships with root by default, but rootless Podman should definitely be possible.

    Normally, you need to set up user namespace mappings for your non-root user. Run these commands as root:

     
        
usermod --add-subuids 100000-165535 <yourusername>
usermod --add-subgids 100000-165535 <yourusername>

    Then check they're set up with:

     
        
grep <yourusername> /etc/subuid
grep <yourusername> /etc/subgid

    This should give your regular user the ability to map container UIDs without needing root privileges. After that, Podman should work fine as your regular user.

    Hope this helps a little 👍

  • I believe the "..." had very different meanings from country to country. At least in my experience. In my country its an indication of something bad. Such as:

    "I just missed the train by 1min..."

    or

    "I crashed my car today..."

  • Lol yeah fair point.

    My main concern was that a fair amount of people tend to customize their windows install into oblivion and end up loosing their data. Did it myself before I learned my lesson 😅

    Took me a while to realise Linux was the solution all my issues, been very happy since! But ofc, whatever works for you is good enough, sounds like u know what you're doing.

  • I mean league of legends does work on linux, though maybe not as "plug and play" as other titles. But yeah I get your point, if you want ro play Rainbow six siege or equivalents ten you're probably out of luck, at least for now.

  • If your OS is so brittle that you can't upgrade it without "losing so much random stuff," you're not standing on solid ground, and I'd argue "it doesn't work properly either. You're basically balancing on a house of cards that, and eventually it will fall, and it won't be pretty. Do yourself a favour and switch to a more future-proof solution, now that you still have proper access to your data. Future you will most likely thank yourself.

  • I for one am very happy to see! He is a great influence to a lot of people and showing that Linux isn't scary will boost numbers by a solid amount ✌️

  • Games freezing when alt-tabbing. Where do I even being debugging?

  • Does this happen when running the game in fullscreen mode aswell as in bordless? AFAIK, when u launch a game in fullscreen more resources are given to this specific resource/game. Therefore, when trying to switch windows/tabs the system will hang more easily as it takes more computing to load the desktop again.

    Take this with a grain of salt I'm no expert. Would also be interesting to see what specs your computer is running. Personally used to have these sort of issues back when I had games running in an HDD, but since moving to SSDs+new higher specs its not really an issue anymore.

  • I chose to include a screenshot because it’s a visual app and it makes more sense to show that first over the link. As I believe less people might click on it otherwise. The link is right there in the post — nothing’s being hidden or misrepresented.

  • AFAIK, Lemmy doesn't allow picture and link in the post "header". Personally prefer to show people a screenshot of an app as I think it looks better. I provided the link in the post.

  • I'm not a 100% certain as I've yet to try the application myself. However one of the configuration pages mentions you can choose between three different methods of choosing storage driver.

    DOCUMENTSTORAGEDRIVER The driver to use for document storage, values can be one of: filesystem, s3, in-memory.

    • Path: documentsStorage.driver
    • Environment variable: DOCUMENT_STORAGE_DRIVER
    • Default value: filesystem

    Also it mentions the use of an ingestion folder.

    https://docs.papra.app/guides/setup-ingestion-folder/

    That's the most I can gather from quickly checking the docs at least.

  • Certainly true, but I think paperless might be a tad overkill for some people.
