I do web-dev so it's not really complicated, maybe that is why I never had to use it up until now, only need like, Node and that's it

KKrauzer I do web-dev so it's not really complicated, maybe that is why I never had to us...

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:38 AM

I am full-time web dev and my web-dev tools all run in distrobox

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:38 AM

because the flatpak versions of them are years out of date

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:38 AM

Now that is interesting

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:38 AM

I also have node in distrobox

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:38 AM

I thought they were up to date

KKrauzer I thought they were up to date

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:39 AM

Flatpak'd sublime is still Sublime 2

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:39 AM

Sublime 3 has been out for a very long time

KKyle Gospo Flatpak'd sublime is still Sublime 2

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:39 AM

and because of this, it has end of life flatpak runtimes

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:39 AM

so highly recommend to use it in a container

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

Can I use node that was installed on a container distrobox, into my VS Codes flatpak app?

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

probably not, but you can create a web dev box with vscode and node installed in it

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

Yeah I figured

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

distrobox is not scary!

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

use boxbuddy

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:40 AM

Might be easier to create a container and install VS Code

KKrauzer Might be easier to create a container and install VS Code

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:41 AM

that's distrobox with extra steps

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:41 AM

But that is what you said

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:41 AM

Maybe I phrased it wrongly

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:41 AM

yeah they mean they should create a distrobox container and install vscode and all the other stuff in it

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:41 AM

and yeah i agree

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:42 AM

make a nice dev environment

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:42 AM

Anyway, my point is that I rarely code on Linux, mostly I code on Windows, so using distrobox sounds like overkill, might just grab my laptop whenever I need to code and leave my Linux systems solely for gaming instead

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:42 AM

And I use Windows because of my company software only being compatible with this OS

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:43 AM

Which is funny if you think about it: Linux? Gaming! Windows? Coding!

KKrauzer Anyway, my point is that I rarely code on Linux, mostly I code on Windows, so us...

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:43 AM

you could do this but wow this is reading like you're from a parallel universe. most people go: 'yeah i use linux for development and windows for gaming'

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:43 AM

oh you said that

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:43 AM

whatever works for you

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:44 AM

That is actually funny yeah

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:44 AM

Just wished my company wasn't soo Windows-centric

KrauzerOP•3/20/24, 5:44 AM

This would solve everything

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:46 AM

kou•3/20/24, 5:54 AM

currently trying to figure this out, waydroid straight up does not detect it as existing so thats an issue

kou•3/20/24, 5:57 AM

jesus, does waydroid just run non stop if you exit it? had to go to terminal and use waydroid session stop

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:57 AM

yea

kou•3/20/24, 5:58 AM

hmm. wonder if i could set something up to quickly stop it while in game mode

Kkou jesus, does waydroid just run non stop if you exit it? had to go to terminal and...

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:59 AM

the waydroid launcher kills the service when you exit

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:59 AM

it should also be reloading the controller driver shortly after launch

Kyle Gospo•3/20/24, 5:59 AM

so waydroid can see it

kou•3/20/24, 5:59 AM

thats if i add it to steam, and launch using that? sorry, just confused about this part

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/20/24, 5:59 AM

ive had waydroid exit and remain in the background before
