I’ll be honest, I did not expect to ever hear another person mention Foobar2000 ever again. And now to learn they have an android app!!! Hmm, may have to use that for a bit just for nostalgia sake.
I also use Vimeo for videos I can’t send directly to people or host my self. For example if I post a FreeCAD howto I put it there so I can link to it from comments and stuff and I know everyone will be able to play it. While it’s not open source, It’s really pretty great as an alternative platform with all the youtube like features and more (you can change your video title if you make a mistake for example).
I have a whole Linux machine with a bunch of displays, 16 cores, tons of memory, powerful GPU, and an internet connection. And I still have a TI-84Plus sitting on my desk which I use for all my calculator needs… It’s just easier.
Not sure why all the downvotes, I use the note to self function for exactly this type of thing all the time. Though to be fair signal is both on my phone and on my computer basically all the time because I use it to talk to everyone too…
EDIT: oh, it’s downvoted because this is the selfhosted community…
We are in a weird state it seems where some stuff requires amdvlk and some stuff requires that amdvlk not be installed… Like the latest gamescope doesn’t work for me when it’s installed unless you explicitly set the AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV
env var but raytracinginvulkan requires the amdvlk package since it’s not as mature of a project and makes too many assumptions.
Gamescope makes the experience a lot better with steam at least for me in swaywm. I experimented with running each game in gamescope using launch options but with gamescope’s mediocre support of the steam overlay some multiplayer invite stuff doesn’t work correctly. Running steam in bigpicture within gamescope pretty much solves all these issues and seems to improve performance too.
Cura is open source and has linux builds on their github https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/releases. Prusaslicer and basically all it’s forks also have Linux builds. I personally use FreeCAD for modelling but it’s not very popular amongst people who use Fusion360.
Rolling releases
Yep, this phrase is now broken for me. It’s all just turds rolling down hills from here on out. Thanks for that
Nice, honestly this sounds like the perfect use case for Gadgetbridge which is a much newer and actively developed tool in addition to not requiring network access. But your solution works fine and I’m sure it’s less work if it’s what you were already doing anyway rather than migrating to a new app. Glad it’s working for you.
Probably? Though I have no experience with the rebble app. I don’t think any of it’s features like searching for apps, weather, etc will work properly and some android apps really misbehave when you take away permissions that they expect to have. Try it and let us know! =]
This is what I currently use with my pebbles. I’ve never used the pebble app, I just started with the FOSS option and stuck with it. Their wiki is really good https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/wiki/Pebble
EDIT: To answer the actual question from this angle, gadgetbridge is surprisingly security focused even though that’s not really it’s main goal. The developers do not allow it to make outbound connections and do not allow the watches it supports to make connections either (except where this is impossible to prevent, say if they can make their own network connections) which is why it doesn’t support in-app weather.
So, there’s not a lot of information here, but on the off chance that your environment is exactly the same as mine (Desktop with on-board bluetooth controller) make sure your included “WiFi antenna” that came with the motherboard is plugged in. It’s also the bluetooth antenna and devices won’t connect if it’s not attached.
Otherwise, please provide more information, like hardware config, logs, installed packages, running services, etc.
A team is paid to make sure it’s accessible while blind, deaf, limited motion (and maybe that accessibility focus trickles down to benefit the average user too)
So, choosing to ignore all the factually inaccurate and low effort “it didn’t read my mind” claims in this post, this one really bothers me. Unified DEs like KDE Plasma and Gnome could absolutely do better here even without paid devs, and I wish they did.

I recently switched to sway and I use xeyes to “look” for applications that are not running natively. The eyes only look at applications running in xwayland when you mouse over them since they can only track the cursor there.
Do they send them, or do they provide you with a website where they are hosted? I once worked around this by guessing the url scheme used by the hosting provider which something like <url>/images/size-4080x3072-<UID>.jpg
. The UID was the same for the previews and for the larger sizes. It turned out that the larger sizes were not actually previews but the raw image data provided in a link to you when you pay.
I use the unigine benchmarks sometimes. unigine-heaven and unigine-superposition (which btw is just cool to watch in my opinion). They provide linux packages here https://benchmark.unigine.com/ , check your distributions repos too though, some include these too though it’s rare. They are not open source, but games usually aren’t either.
The phoronix one that someone else posted also looks cool, I’ll have to try that one out next time I need something like this.
Because I don’t like things to be behind other things. And I feel like moving windows around is a waste of effort and time, and also requires using the mouse where I wouldn’t normally have to. Tiling windows and using workspaces to organize my work/play/attention works very well for me and helps keep my focus where I want it.
Also sway in particular, but other tiling window managers too, have better output management than standard DEs. If I’m on output 3 workspace 12 and I want to do something new, any new window I open stays on output 3 workspace 12. I have a lot of displays and not being surprised about where windows open is extremely helpful.
Are they using vulkan natively (not dxvk through wine)? I posted about this when running the experimental vulkan support on BeamNG.drive https://www.beamng.com/threads/vulkan-api-–-feedback-known-issues-and-faq.79967/page-12#post-1617244. Looks to be very similar maybe?
My OS details are in that post but also here:
OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Kernel: 6.1.39-1-lts Resolution: 3840x1600 WM: sway CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (32) @ 3.400GHz GPU: AMD ATI Radeon PRO W6800 Memory: 64209MiB
All other games, even ones that use vulkan, work fine for me, it’s just BeamNG.drive
EDIT: well, I’m not on 6.1.39 anymore… I have obviously updated since that post, but the rest is the same…
