  • Updated Steam Runtime Switches To Debian 13 Libraries, SDL2 Using Compatibility Layer

    跳过

  • True, tho I rather rely on Proton than stuff like the borked BG3 port or the incompatible Total Warhammer port. Until there's enough people already settled in, there's no point in pressuring people to maintain ports for such a moving target. Maybe we'll get stuck like this, but still all the older games that were already released will need to work via compatibility layers anyway

  • RIP Windows: Linux GPU Gaming Benchmarks on Bazzite (GamersNexus new Linux Benchmarking is here!)

    跳过

  • Look up Bazzite DX. Its a developers oriented version. Other than that, distrobox is amazing for creating containers for your projects, allowing you to have a sane and stable dev environment

  • Updated Steam Runtime Switches To Debian 13 Libraries, SDL2 Using Compatibility Layer

    跳过

  • Remember that at the end of the day Proton is just a stopgap measure (and future compatibility for legacy titles) up until Linux gathers enough critical mass for engines, studios and publishers to start targeting linux

  • Updated Steam Runtime Switches To Debian 13 Libraries, SDL2 Using Compatibility Layer

    跳过

  • I'd rather have studios continually testing against proton over releasing a decent port that gets abandoned, foregoing all the improvements. I went full Linux back in the previous "steam for Linux" push. A few studios released competent ports for what we had back then. As an example: Metro games were OK ports but now they look and work far worse than just switching to the windows version on Proton.

    And other devs made poor ports, got a ton of flak from the very vocal userbase and said "never again" (CDPR with witcher 2)

  • Bracing for impact

    跳过

  • I have an old i5 Mac mini (2011 I think) as a backup for infrastructure stuff (proxy, home assistant, pihole). If something goes terribly wrong I can just plug it in and start it. All the LXCs are copies of my main proxmox rig, albeit a bit outdated (BC I don't leave it plugged in). I know I could do better with proxmox's HA but seems like another thing I'd be on the hook to keep maintaining.

  • Looking for opinions on Trilium Notes

    跳过

  • The normal account (dafault) is the only monetized option, giving 100mb of free space.

    I did a quick check on the self hosted option in the beginning and same, seemed too convoluted and decided to stick with the local method, since I tested it (turning phone WiFi off) and it was still syncing (via tailscale)

    On the upside, I tested the import/export features and seemed rather solid, so you can always create a new local account (save the seed phrase!) And bring your stuff back into it.

  • Looking for opinions on Trilium Notes

    跳过

  • I have nginx set up for limited stuff, most of my selfhosted services I kept behind tailscale.

    The only big con I found against it, it's hard to switch between the self-hosted and "normal" vaults. I should test if I can have another copy (eg appimage) with separate settings for that.

    I am heavily using the local-only mode but I've also recommended it to some normie friends, so sharing vaults in different modes becomes a hassle

    Edit: tldr, I'm using the "local only" mode but since I have tailscale, everywhere is LAN ;)

  • Recommended touch screen front end.

  • Pick any distro you like, where the touchscreen already works, install flatpak and butler

  • Looking for opinions on Trilium Notes

    跳过

  • I know this is a rather necro-y post, but I'm surprised nobody mentioned anytype. I've been using it for the last 2 months and I'm slowly moving my notes off obsidian, as well as my journal off logseq/nextcloud.

    I went in a bit weary, the webpage looks like the typical startup project ready to pull the rug off your feet at any point, but there's a self-hosted option and even a local-only mode that syncs devices across your LAN.

  • Does Terminal use actually make sense in the real world?

    跳过

  • Terminal is nice for a lot of repetitive tasks that would be a chore via GUI.

    Even though I've been a Linux user for almost 20 years >!(fuck I feel old)!<, I mostly use GUI stuff. Terminal is super neat for doing batch stuff, I've even learned how to do some stuff for windows for whenever I inevitably get a call from family to fix their shit. I was pleasantly surprised with winget and I keep a .txt file to batch install common general use apps for them, same as I keep some dotfiles for getting my preferences over on a new PC or install.

  • Fixing easy anti-cheat?

    跳过

  • Verifying game files usually re-runs the first install script for the game, reinstalling EAC among other things.

    Not EAC specifically, but back when it launched, Helldivers2 had some issues with its anticheat, running verify fixed it

  • how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life?

    跳过

  • I normally tell it straight from why I got interested on it: "I like my stuff being mine"

  • What is a good self-hosted solution for sharing files with friends?

    跳过

  • Internal domain and reverse proxy

    跳过

  • You say that, but I've seen so many dodgy iot devices.... Specially deploying PiHole you start to see so much random traffic from stupid stuff like a smartplug or a TV box

  • Internal domain and reverse proxy

    跳过

  • I recently finished something like this at home, npmplus+pihole. I'll never do it again, and the moment it breaks I'll go back to just using Tailscale's MagicDNS

  • How do I set up World of Warcraft for use with Linux?

    跳过

  • Hell, If your distro ships docker is easier to spin up your own TrinityCore server than run the official client lol

  • Thoughts on Philips Hue Lights

    跳过

  • I have a few Philips wiz lights and they are reliable. I blocked them from connecting to the internet and I manage them from HomeAssistant. The only issue is that if I have a blackout, they come back all on at 100% brightness. I know there's a setting for "keep the last state" on setup, but I redid it a few times and it never sticks.

  • How to start off small with the intent to expand

    跳过

  • If you can overcome the first kinda large step of setting up a basic install of Proxmox + ZFS pool, you'll love it. You can try shit out and nuke it if you don't like it. Helper Scripts from here are also a great way to try stuff without breaking anything you already have. each container gets its own IP so you don't have to juggle stuff with a reverse proxy (which is a PITA to set up properly) and with TailScale on the host, you can pretty much access everything from anywhere, without exposing it to the wider internet.

    Creating a ZFS pool is also rather nice, because you can keep adding new disks to the pool when you're running short. Ideally you'd use some mirroring for security. Backups are also nice with proxmox, as long as you don't give every LXC a giant size quota.

    Last thing, DO get an UPS, even if it's a small consumer grade one that lasts 5 minutes. Make sure it has some sort of conectivity (network or USB) and it's linux compatible. I've lost a lot of time rebuilding a 2yo NextCloud install that went all wonky after a blackout.

    So in a detailed summary from your points:

    1. Proxmox makes it easy to make, test and restore backups, even if it's for a spare drive or across the network. Setting up a /mnt/usb mountpoint for an external USB drive by UUID is one way of having it available when needed, and kept offline for safekeeping
    2. Frigate NVR. Lightweight, can integrate with HomeAssistant for automations and alerts. Try getting "dumb" IP cameras, most of the smart IoT stuff will try to upsell you on crap and might end up bricked by the company down the line.
    3. Nextcloud for your PC backups and Immich for your phone photos. NC also has an android and iOS app that can sync folders you tell it to.
    4. Look up "YAMS". I'd recommend running the whole YAMS stack + portainer on a separate Proxmox LXC so you can easily put the whole thing on a separate VPN instead of relying on the provided gluetun package
    5. For quick One-offs, portainer is more than enough. There's Pterodactyl and Pelican for more in-depth server hosting but I found it too cumbersome
    6. PiHole LXC on a fixed IP and set your devices (or better yet, your router/AP if you can) pointing to it's IP as the primary DNS server
    7. not really sure what you mean here, wired connections tend to be the best, maybe get a Pi or a small android box that supports ethernet.
    8. HomeAssistant (use the VM helper script for full HAOS!)
    9. HomeAssistant again, try getting a smart meter that doesn't rely on shitty APIs like Tuya, unless you're willing to dive into hacking with tasmota.
    10. ProxmoxLXC, there's already a helper script for it.
    11. Kiwix-server has a docker image, easily hostable and it takes Wikipedia's offline archive files.

    Good Luck and Have Fun!
