some people like it. it's main issue is that it's totally different than how any other linux distro does things and there's no good centralized documentation

to continue. they've also updated their way of doing things (i.e. flakes) but lots of documentation is pre-flakes, and system vs home-manger being different setups, etc.

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:39 AM

trying to make sense of anything as an outsider is :CirnoConfused:

sounds like an xkcd comic

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:40 AM

the arch wiki has spoiled everyone

DevilFish303•6/13/24, 5:40 AM

there's 10 standards, i will unify these and make an 11th standard

Astral•6/13/24, 5:40 AM

nix is hell

Astral•6/13/24, 5:40 AM

you know that phrase "linux is free if you don't value your time?" (which is false nowadays but y know)

Astral•6/13/24, 5:40 AM

that phrase holds true to nix users

DevilFish303•6/13/24, 5:41 AM

LOL oh wait there is: https://xkcd.com/927/

xkcd: Standards

Fortunately, the charging one has been solved now that we've all standardized on mini-USB. Or is it micro-USB? Shit.

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:42 AM

well, that's also true in an atomic and/or immutable sense. lots of different distros having a different way to do the similar concept.

Astral•6/13/24, 5:42 AM

lmao ok I don't think I even need to fork it tbh

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:42 AM

fedora is image-based. opensuse uses btrfs snapshots. nix uses declerative configs. etc.

Astral•6/13/24, 5:42 AM

granted it might be a tad outdated because this bellend has been building for flakes only but I can just pull a tag

Crono•6/13/24, 5:43 AM

Been thinking of spinning up a home server lately, would be fun to try Nix but given my experience with Bazzite I'll just default to uCore

DevilFish303•6/13/24, 5:43 AM

don't forget whatever ubuntu is doing with ubuntu core

Crono•6/13/24, 5:43 AM

Doesn't make sense for a single low-maintenance deploy anyway

Crono•6/13/24, 5:44 AM

Especially given how hardened Fedora is

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:44 AM

why would they end a universal flatpack that everyone has access to... and only build a nix version that less than 1% of the current linux userbase even understands? i mean, i can understand 'in addition to' but 'only'?

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:44 AM

If I had to install an OS for my server nowadays it'd either be uCore or TrueNAS depending on my needs

DDevilFish303 don't forget whatever ubuntu is doing with ubuntu core

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:44 AM

"etc." doing work. there's also vanilla os, etc.

Crono•6/13/24, 5:44 AM

There are people who use nix-shellnix-shell as a package manager, but it shouldn't be done

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:45 AM

At the moment it's on Debian though since it's an old server and it's been bulletproof with no reason to change the OS out lol

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:46 AM

i'm using unraid atm for my nas/server like a pleb.

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:46 AM

if i ever built a more capable server than just a simple nas that runs some dockers i'd probably try and learn proxmox

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:46 AM

Proxmox sounds fun but also overkill for most home server needs

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:47 AM

I use the strategy of reusing old desktop hardware to turn into servers instead of investing into actual server gear

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:47 AM

unraid's been pretty newbie friendly due to a huge community and extensive documentation at least

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:48 AM

It's definitely a good option. I just can't get away from it being closed source personally

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:49 AM

and yeah, it's just desktop gear for mine. with lots of reused parts and a new cpu/mobo/ram when i built it.

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:49 AM

which i'll probably eventually move to a new case down the line and add a gpu

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:49 AM

Same here

Geechan•6/13/24, 5:50 AM

I should change the case out for mine since it's...14 years old now

Kyle Gospo•6/13/24, 5:51 AM

drop the width/height/clientcmd

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:51 AM

there's also always the option of keeping this as is and later just getting a capable mini-pc and transfering dockers, vms, etc. to it

Kyle Gospo•6/13/24, 5:51 AM

and use the gamescopecmd from the default file (There's a log in your home dir)

Kyle Gospo•6/13/24, 5:51 AM

plus the extra rotation option you do need

KKyle Gospo and use the gamescopecmd from the default file (There's a log in your home dir)

Nadie•6/13/24, 5:57 AM

Thanks, it actually runs fine now :beagle_wow:

Astral•6/13/24, 5:58 AM

finally... This udev rule disables the goddamn gyro on the ds4 so it doesn't fuck with other applications that don't use steaminput for mappings

sneaking like i'm snake•6/13/24, 5:58 AM

So I'm trying to install Fedora 40 alongside my existing Bazzite install and in the manual partitioning I am allowed to add / and /home btrfs but when I click add boot or boot/efi it gives me an error because there is already the EFI partition made by bazzite. how can I get the fedora 40 installer to recognize that partition and add itself there?

if i type "/boot/efi" into the existing efi partition will it overwrite my bazzite stuff or add itself as a boot option alongside it

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:59 AM

it'll overrate because both use/create a "fedora" boot folder

Astral•6/13/24, 5:59 AM

AND it doesn't fuck with steaminput's gyro either

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 5:59 AM

and fedora's installer also errors out (unless it was fixed recently) if you already have a fedora boot folder in your boot/efi as well

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 6:00 AM

if you're trying to install normal fedora with atomic fedora, it likely has to be on a totally seperate drive

sneaking like i'm snake•6/13/24, 6:01 AM

I see, I will see if I can shrink some of my windows partitions on the other drives

sneaking like i'm snake•6/13/24, 6:01 AM

thank you

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 6:02 AM

installing other distros with it is much easier/possible though still requires some manual partitioning

VagrantWindsOP•6/13/24, 6:03 AM

but fedora doesn't like being installed with fedora. insert spider-man pointing meme.

antheas•6/13/24, 6:21 AM

36% of steam Linux users are on steamos
