TOML or bust

Same here. I like wearing skirts and being pretty but I’m a cis guy. Due to my exploration of gender expression my friends are occasionally like “Are you sure you’re cis?” And I’m just like “Yep, still a man unfortunately. I’d straight up be something else if I could but nope. Still a dude.”

I’m not familiar with ports, does it provide an easy way to install packages of a particular version? Is it OpenBSD only, or just a system of installing things?

I’ve got no dog in the race as of yet, I’ve bounced off of nixos a few times because of the general lack of consistency from one package to the next in terms of configuration options made available in the Nix language.

Genuinely curious about how it compares. The nix package manager seems fairly promising, even on non-Nix systems, if I could ever convince myself I needed it

There’s also an app called Shutter that works quite well

Autism+ADHD life, I can’t stand to have emails in my inbox for more than a day and I also can’t be diligent enough to achieve that

I can imagine that getting confused with Guix (pronounced geeks)

Well that seems super cool

Even if the AC was left on, I’d have never left my kid in the car alone at 2. So many ways that can go wrong.

Somehow there’s never time to do it right, but there’s always time to do it again

Nah, I wanna hear about bugs that have affected you that you can confirm are bugs :-)

That’s only true for the Java edition, some people play the Bedrock edition instead tho - and even then, that can still be run on Linux lol

Give examples or get out

They didn’t say Steam Deck

Running games through Proton is as simple as clicking install and then play on Steam. You might need to enable Steam Play or such but I haven’t had setup or config troubles with games in years now

Don’t you know that GUIs are super double duper against the unix philosophies of old? Mr Linux Torbald rolling in his grave just thinking of it

For the first one, try Lutris

I switch between this and Shutter on a regular basis depending on what I feel like using that day.

I dunno what you were using but I recommend virt-viewer.

The main thing for this one is that you’ll want to get a PCIe USB controller card and pass that through directly to the VM so that unplugs/replugs/device resets don’t connect the device to the host machine briefly while if determines if it should pass through.

In i3wm you can set a key bind to float a window above the tiling and it’ll do just that; You can even automate it with some custom for_window rules if desired.

My autistic ass has always thought of it as “I’m going to the (specific) bathroom (that I will be using)”
