overview for RustyNova

Librewolf, but I'd argue it's more of a Firefox/web debloater reason. No pocket, no VPN ads. I would have said that the only issue is that it is a pain to update, but they added a windows updater and software repos, so I would almost recommend it over stock firefox for normies.

And I use tor to search stuff that contains sensitive data like my location... Or when a website is blocked

Reduce animation time for Task Switcher (lemmy.world)

submitted 2 weeks ago by RustyNova@lemmy.world to c/kde@lemmy.kde.social

Is there any way to speed up the task switcher pop in animation? I find it way too slow. Ideally I'd like it to be as fast as the one on cinnamon as I switched for it to KDE

Restart an OOM killed docker automatically (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 month ago by RustyNova@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

32 comments fedilink

I got an home server that is running docker for all my self hosted apps. But sometimes I accidentally trigger Earlyoom by remotely starting expensive docker builds, which kill docker.

I don't have access to my server outside of my home network, so I can't manually restart docker in those situations.

What would be the best way to restart it automatically? I don't mind doing a full system restart if needed

Surely "1337" is the same as 1337, right? by RustyNova in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

To whoever does that, I hope that there is a special place in hell where they force you to do type safe API bindings for a JSON API, and every time you use the wrong type for a value, they cave your skull in.

Sincerely, a frustrated Rust dev

Automatically ask for stashing changes when switching branches (lemmy.world)

submitted 3 months ago by RustyNova@lemmy.world to c/vscode@programming.dev

Is there an extension that allows for automatic stashing on branch switch like GitHub desktop does?

There was an a proposal about it, but it got declined: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/86668

Bloat by RustyNova in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[-] RustyNova@lemmy.world 139 points 3 months ago

Yes. It is bloated. But not for the reasons you may think.

Live OSes need to fit multiple requirements compared to the installed ones. They need to:

Install the OS without internet
Provide a test ground for the OS
Be a way to repair damaged OS

So of course it's bloated, but in a good way. You may be already familiar with Ubuntu, and not care about the live OS part, so it would be bloat for you. You may not care about setting up disks, so GParted is bloat for you, etc...

If you want a less bloated installer, some other distros like debian give net installers

Audio effects for Windows (Like Easy Effects) (lemmy.world)

submitted 4 months ago by RustyNova@lemmy.world to c/opensource@lemmy.ml

8 comments fedilink

I am looking for an alternative to Easy Effects for windows. It works really well on my Linux machine, but I want something for my work machine that runs windows.

Any suggestions? I don't need all the filters, but at least something to correct the awful bass

Always look on the official repository. Not just to see if it exists, but also to make sure it isn't a fake/malicious one

I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives. by RustyNova in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

[-] RustyNova@lemmy.world 116 points 5 months ago

I won't lie, but content like this is what I love on programmerhumor.

Also just use the (inferior) open source version of GUMBIES called GRUMBOSS. It's way better!

Switching from Linux Mint to Nobara on a secure boot and dual booted laptop (lemmy.world)

submitted 5 months ago by RustyNova@lemmy.world to c/nobaraproject@lemmy.ml

0 comments fedilink

I got a Zephyrus Duo laptop with Windows 10 and Linux mint dual booted. I've recently heard about Nobara, and I'd want to distro hop to it as it has all my daily apps, more recent drivers, and good Nvidia support. It would replace my linux mint partition.

Thing is, my laptop came in with windows bitlocker, and secure boot. The former isn't really an issue as both OS would be on different drives. But the latter prevents me to boot Nobara as it's a unsigned distro.

I'm wondering about whether I should sacrifice secure boot for Nobara, and if I should, how to deal with windows being bitlocked.

I don't really use windows anymore but I do still need it, so no, I won't uninstall it.

Any help and tips ?
