That's misinformation. Tailscale is Canadian. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tailscale

The keys aren't transferring with RustDesk or Moonlight? Moonlight worked for me with the above.

Better transport for sure. And its just a few days out of the year you may be out in "two feet of fresh snow." However proper winter gear and caution can still be manageable for a lot of folks even in the few days of harshest of conditions like the one you mentioned.

Fat bike tires, or winter studded tires can help in the case of severe winter weather. Dressing in good layers. Advocating for people biking conditions in your city.

The money you save will be able to be put into better gear, and maybe a Canadian E-Bike. And there is also the lives you are saving to thank yourself for. Including your own health with free exercise -- you may be able to cancel your gym membership.

Your city may likely have bike trails worth exploring for alternative safe and quicker routes. And a good durable bike would be a good way to go explore them.

It might even save you time to get to work.

I'm no climate change nor oil expert, but I do agree more bikes and less vehicles is the way to go.

It will be better on all our wallets, environment, and health.

STEP BY STEP SOLUTION

Using my ArchLinux as a Sunshine server, and Ubuntu as a Moonlight client:

Sunshine devs advise using your Distros package manager ("apt" if on Ubuntu/Debian. AURs "yay" or "paru" if on ArchLinux, or "dns" if on Fedora/CentOS/RHEL), instead of using your Distros AppStore, or either AppImage or Flatpak -- although they may still work.
Run the following on the terminal command line of your Sunshine server:

sudo setcap cap_sys_admin+p $(readlink -f $(which sunshine))

Restart Sunshine server.

Then either restart Sunshine by opening on your browser https://localhost:47990/troubleshooting or reboot the whole machine if that doesn't work.

Set username and password for Sunshine here if prompted: https://localhost:47990/
In Moonlight client, click the gear on the top right (settings), then Enable Capture system keyboard shortcuts
Connect to Sunshine using Moonlight client using the 192.168.xxx.xxx IP of your Sunshine server. Running the following on the terminal of your Sunshine server should show your IP: ip addr
Input pin shown from Moonlight into https://localhost:47990/pin webpage of the Sunshine server.
Use CTL + Shift + Alt + Q to escape.

Again, step 5 is what allows special keys to be ran on the remote host and not the local.

I just tried Sunshine (remote host) and Moonlight (client). There was a bit more setting up. They mention on their docs somewhere to use your distro's package manager instead of app stores if you can.

On ArchLinux, I needed to run this in the command line first, and then restart. sudo setcap cap_sys_admin+p $(readlink -f $(which sunshine))

And then after running Sunshine, and accessing its web console https://localhost:47990/, setting a username and password, to access it via Moonshine on my client by putting my 192.168.xxx.xxx IP, then placing the pin on the Sunshine remote host at https://localhost:47990/pin. And then had 2 "Desktop" icons, 1 to connect with high res and another low res; and then a third icon to connect to "Steam" for Steam Big Picture mode connection.

Also Moonlight and Sunshine starts with very low brightness. I've fixed this before, by going into the Moonlight or Sunshine settings -- I don't remember which one.

Although Moonlight and Sunshine does not ask for connection verification after I've connected once. Rustdesk would ask me everytime, and I did not figure out how to remove Rustdesk prompting the remote host to ask the connection.

And both Moonlight and Rustdesk run the super key on the client host.###

Let me know how it goes. I don't gave much experience with them. But if they're made well for gaming, should for good for a full experience.

I would be very confused if someone said the word to me in-person, even after seeing it on Lemmy or Reddit.

Its like the first time I heard the word woke. What the hell are these people on or talking about?

I agree, GIMPs UI is pretty nasty. Same as LibreOffice Writer, but I still use them.

Tankies imo is such a creepy new word that came out of nowhere. Do real people actually use this word?

I have the sane problem with the Super (Windows) and alt button running locally instead of just the remote machine.

You might find better success with Moonshine & Sunshine together. It works with Android as well. And provides 4K HD streaming which is great for gaming.

On topic for QEMU/KVM, easier to use interfaces would be helpful. Not saying other VM software are any easier, but they have so many settings baked in, and I only get them running maybe after the 50th trial and error setting changed.

There are edge cases like these where I would consider paying for software to fix my system. Problem is, I wouldn't know where to look and who to trust.

Its also just for personal use, so if it were expensive then I would just reformat for free.

This plugin might help you https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP

Its so easy nowadays on Steam, and other clients like Lutris for GoG and Heroic for Epic Games. They care care of all the extra software to install to run Windows games.

You simply install the client, run the game. As simple as Windows. Plus the epic power of Linux. Its the best for new and older hardware.

Looks like none are made in Canada. Louis Garneau used to but not anymore. https://helmets.org/madewhere.htm#%3A%7E%3Atext=Canada%2Chelmet+is+made+in+Canada

However if you're looking for ratings on helmets, consider looking at the following: https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/bicycle-helmet-ratings.html!

Also both Hiplok and Litelok are made in U.K.

That's fair. Looking back, I shouldn't have used the word containerized. Isolated may have been what I should have used instead since I'm not sure if its "containerized", a "VM", or as @Saprophyte@lemmy.world said "bubblewrap"..

Thanks for responding.

Why the downvotes? This is useful information...
