Would syncing your backup directory work? Like take snapshots of your system, dump the snapshots all in a single directory, and sync it to an off-site location?

Nah, he’s a duck. Ducks are feathered bags of pure rage.

But he’s handsome and talented, so it’s all good.

That there is Nigel. He turned 5 this April.

Mah boy

Nice! More options for blocking ads is always welcome.

I haven’t tried any other add ons other than ublock, but I can confirm that it works on my iPhone 15 with recent iOS.

Just try looking at the same recipe page in safari and then again in Orion. Night and day.

Might as well use a fucking crayon.

What does that make me (0.38 user)?!?

Also, I think you mean 1.0, 0.7 and 0.5

I love EOS. I have both sway and plasma installed. I prefer sway, but sometimes I get frustrated with troubleshooting and I can use plasma as a safety net. I’ve only had to do it once, but it’s nice knowing it’s there.

Yeah, I just have one that launches blueman-manager. Not elegant, but works well. I only ever use BT on my laptop. So my desktop doesn’t even have it.

For music control I added a custom Spotify element to my waybar that shows now-playing, and lets me play/pause/skip/etc without having to go back to workspace 1. That’s all I need.

Tiling is just so nice once you get used to it. No more fiddling around with window placement.

I tried to do that when I started, but now it’s just habit. Super+Shift+# does most of the work.

My only complaint with the EOS configuration is the lack of Bluetooth on the bar. And the sound/screen brightness buttons don’t give any visual/audio feedback. I have some notifications imbedded, but they look and feel kinda janky compared to how nice and clean they are in Plasma.

Sway is it. I tried originally building it all up from scratch. It was fun, and taught me how all the pieces fit together, but now I just grab the EOS community dotfiles and make a few minor tweaks.

For me, it’s not a “workflow” that is sped up, it really just helps me remember where stuff “belongs”. Workspace 1 always has my Spotify, audio mixer, and discord/signal. Workspace 5 is gaming, etc.

Resizing and swapping window locations around is so simple with just super+mouse click/drag.

EOS btw.

Okay, well maybe it’s just me that’s the lazy one!

The community sway package for eos is so good that I pretty much gave up on my custom dotfiles.

Finally some meme recognition for those of us that want to be “cool arch users” but don’t want to spend any effort getting there!

(Fucking love EOS right now. )

Just grab some prebuilt .config files. I just switched from maintaining my own “custom” set to the endeavorOS community repo for sway, and it’s seriously amazing. Not too much, but has everything I need working right out the box.

Thanks man, I’ll pencil in a spot this weekend to give it another go. I’ll hit you up next week if I can’t figure it out. Thanks a lot. I love lemmy for this.

I guess so… it’s been a while since I tried it to be honest. I ended up just opting for an additional NUC to use as my media playing PC, but if I could combine that with my “server” NUC, it would give me more a reason to buy new, more powerful hardware 😈

Hmmm… I’ll have to try again. I don’t have a windows VM, so I’ve just been trying to pass through my MX Linux VM that I use for watching media. I’m not worried about the GPU, so as long as I can send the desktop to my display via HDMI, I’ll be happy as a clam.

Regarding your “desktop” setup. I tried to do this, and have one of my Cams inside proxmox pass the gui out via HDMI to my monitor, and I could not for the life of me get it to work. All the googling at that time said it doesn’t work, but might in the future. Are we in the future?
