On nixos i managed to uninstall nix (package manager), remove my user account, git, ls, WiFi drivers and basically everything else
I can’t remember how I rescued it now but managed to get it back without a reinstall
That’s awesome if they’re implementing it.
My Google home and Chromecast at the moment are necessary evils because when I sit down to watch something I don’t want to have to worry about whether it’ll work with x or y, whether I’m getting good bitrate etc
Would however be really cool if I was able to cast my screen, cast YouTube etc from my Linux laptop
Have been able to do it in the past using chrome but I already need to keep two browsers installed don’t want a third
Do they not just… test the blood before they use it anyway? You’d think they’d want to do that regardless
Imagine how much more convenient the world would be if the Chromecast protocol was open source
Bear in mind most tiling wms don’t come with much installed by default, you’ll need a bar and a launcher at least
No idea what distro you’re currently using but generally you can install whatever window manager/desktop (gui) you want
For a tiling wm I’d recommend hyprland. It’s not the most stable but I’ve had minimal issues with it and it’s really easy to get started with. You can install it alongside gnome/kde I believe and switch between the two on login so if you break one you’ve still got the other
You’ve gotta ask does an old person care more about Google spying on them or being able to use a computer as easily as possible
Depending on use case it doesn’t sound like that’d be an issue. I used one of the like 3rd generation Chromebooks for school, I had to rdp for visual studio and Photoshop but it was perfect for everything else
Are we expecting this old person to suddenly embrace their leet gamer skills
Ah you seem to be missing dnf. No worries! Just do
pacman -S dnf
Then you can run
dnf install apt
If someone’s in imminent danger sending police capable of protecting them from said danger seems like a reasonable idea
How does its startup time compare to other launchers (rofi or tofi for example)
Ah makes sense. I installed hyprland on arch then jumped to nix when I couldn’t be bothered with it lol
I’m not arguing good vision is not important for general survival, but I think hunting has a higher ceiling of usefulness for good vision than anything else humans did in that period
Very understandable that song is awesome
I basically listened to it on loop for a week and ruined the effect
Can it not be powered via the same cable the display goes over? I only have one usb c port and would rather not have multiple cables for it at all if I can help it
Do you use an autotiler out of curiosity? I found since using a tiling wm I don’t use my extra monitors nearly as much
Yep that it is. To be honest can live with an external one, the main thing is keeping it in the same bag as the laptop and not needing an extra power supply adding weight
If it’s actually possible when my Chromecast stops being usable I’m putting Linux on it and using it to run some light weight projects (someone mentioned you can Linux them)
