I guess OP could change the if statement to check if nixos-rebuild is running, not just check for music being played.
`
music_is_playing=$(pw-cli i all 2>&1 | grep running -q)
# Only suspend if audio isn't running
if [ $music_is_playing == 1 ] && ! pidof nixos-rebuild; then
systemctl suspend
fi
` But I guess not using the script at all is also an option if putting the PC to sleep is a no-no.
I don't want to be mean but searching "DNS hostnames" just gives generic AI generated "DNS explained" articles. This answer is helpful only if you already know that mDNS exists.
Thanks, I did not know about mDNS. I will use this.
Thanks, it does indeed work. I guess I'll add a wireguard tunnel so that I won't have to bother with the "do you trust the fingerprint?" every time I'm on a different network or when the IP changes.
Unfortunately the router at my gf's house does not resolve the hostname, so no. Though thanks for the suggestion, I feel kinda stupid for not trying that.
Edit: I'm a noob. Solved by adding ".local" suffix after the hostname.
Sure, but that is just unnecessary bloat if you already have the systemd-stuff installed.
I feel like both "people who install windows on the steam deck" and "people asking for advice for migrating to linux on reddit" are just vocal minorities which you encounter on the internet but don't really influence the Statcounter's results in a meaningful way. Generally (from my view) it's the kids who got a steamdeck for xmass and the coders who use ubuntu for work influencing the numbers.
imo it's kinda like bash's bloatness. Sure, I'd use a less bloated shell but I need bash as a bash interpreter regardless, so using a smaller shell would actually be more bloat. In a similar way you already have systemd, so you don't really gain any more bloat by having this alias for systemd-run or how it's called.
The original problem was to automagically prompt the user for password, if he tried to run some systemd executable without the wheel privileges. At some point they decided to reuse the code for [a command that allows you to run stuff as root] replacement because sudo is too bloated and vulnerable.
run0 is just an alias for a part of systemd, so installing doas too would be useless bloat. Another thing to note is that doas is just smaller sudo, you still wouldn't use 99 % of its features.
edit: also from my totally surface level understanding both sudo and doas "elevate your privileges" which is supposedly unnecessary attack surface. run0 does it in a better way which I do not understand.
Yeah I mean at that point it's redundant because you might as well type su -c "some command here". On the other hand having such alias does no harm if you're already using systemd.
Actually I want to use the wireguard tunnel regardless because right now I am tunneling VNC through SSH, which is laggy because it's TCP. But thanks either way.
