  • You are dead on. That post absolutely fucking reeks of AI. I want to say if you can't smell it a mile off you're an absolute cretin, but there are probably millions of people who've never really spent much time with LLMs and would be easily fooled by this garbage

  • Thanks! I actually decided to give up on Blend and try Nobara, which integrates the required surface kernel changes out of the box. I chose the version with KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and have had no bother getting Waydroid to run. I'm actually having a blast using a machine with full Android and full Linux functionailty

    Anyone tried blendOS with microsoft surface?

    Hi all, I have an old surface SP7 that I want to wipe and install linux on. I've been having fun playing with Waydroid on my other machine, but it is running Mint and the wayland implementation is not very mature. Obviously for a touch screen device being able to run android apps is really beneficial.

    I learned about blendOS and it seems like a fun distro to try, looks like waydroid is set up nicely out of the box. Looks cool being able to install packages for all linux flavours. But I wonder if it being immutable will make it more difficult to install the surface kernel. I'm sure its possible, but I don't want to spend forever messing about with it.

    Separate question, anyone had success running GApps on BlendOS waydroid? It was trivial when manually installing, but looks like Blend's preconfigured to use Aurora or F-droid only

    Accountant rule

  • These are all Tiktok slang, as far as i understand. Accountants or 'spicy accountants' are Like strippers or Sex workers? The inside joke is that its such a boring job that if someone asks what you do, and you reply accountant, you won't get any follow up questions.

    Unalive is slang for suicide, I guess videos with suicide in them don't get promoted.

    Corn is porn, same idea with self censoring to get around content issues

  • I've got this now, looks pretty cool, thanks! Gonna keep looking over the documentation, but I can't quite see the particular behaviour I'm looking for. It has the snapping (and better options than Win10), but I want to be presented with the list of other available windows for snapping on the other side.

    Window snapping

    Hey guys, I've been running Mint on my home computer for a little while now and I'm having a great time, however there's one behaviour from Windows I'm missing. When you hit win + arrows to snap the currently focussed window to the left or right half of the screen, windows will present a dialogue to select a companion window for the other half of the screen from your other floating windows. Does anyone know how best to implement something like this? I tried a tiling WM like i3, but that's a bit more... involved than what I'm looking for. Thanks!

  • Thanks for the advice. Is there a certain YAML file or something I should be looking at to check this? I installed via portainer and haven't seen any of the configs this time around

  • Thanks! I've seen this phrase before when hunting around some other forum posts. How can I check this? I assume on my router or on the access points? I can't see anything in the Deco app about this, I found this link that suggests it might not be supported?

    HA autodiscovery

    Hey guys,

    I'm having some trouble getting back into home assistant. I was running fine on an RPi with HA in docker, but during some tinkering on another project broke the whole thing and it was easier to start from scratch.

    Since last time though, I've installed a mesh WiFi system (TP link Deco). These are running in Access Point Mode. My new HA is up and running again, but hasn't auto discovered anything. I recall being surprised last time by the amount of things it found and how easily. I think there are some network settings preventing proper auto discovery, can anyone give me any tips?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Hi!

    The hostname thing is weird. I was able to navigate to the hostname in my browser which successfully showed the mediabox landing page (I believe this is 'Homer'), but all the links on there were pointing to the machine IP. If I changed the address to be hostname:32400, maybe it would have worked, but I didn't try that. I guess homer should route to a machine IP not a localhost so as when you land there from another device it properly routes to the machine which can serve the apps.

    Aside: Do you (or anyone reading!) know how you do that thing where you alias your machine IP to an arbitrary name? I'm sure I did it once upon a time with 'bonjour'(?), but I don't recall any more than that.

    Anyway, turning the deco's onto access point mode solved everything :)

    Regarding mediabox - there seems to be a few good projects like this, they are actually incredible and super helpful for a learning perspective. I started with YAMS which actually has miles better documentation and is super helpful for setting up the services. Mediabox seems to assume you know a bit more about how the *arrs work. It sets up the containers and the folder structures really nicely, but for a novice like myself it took some time to get all the applications configured.

    It's been a fun project though!

    Networking Help

    I just installed a mesh WiFi network in addition to my ISP-provided router that could barely reach upstairs. I had some locally hosted services set up as per Mediabox. All containers were set up with my machine IP(?) 192.xxx.x.xx and were working great inside my network, which is all I wanted to do while I'm learning. I noticed today that if I connect via the other, mesh WiFi network that this IP can't be accessed, despite it being the same machine. What's going on?

    All advice much appreciated as I am (obviously) a self hosting novice!
