Our king Sir Torvalds has spoken. And hence let there be rust in the kernel

I run arch. I use vanilla arch (btw) it's the best. But that's because I am ready to put in the time. Not because it is inherently better.

Sooooooooo fucking good. I was massively depressed when I played this for the first time by the great gods I cried at ending man. Me a man of 21 yrs then was bawling like a baby.

Just pure experience. I can go to war with someone if they say that any AAA game is even close enough.

Or... Hear me out... Might be controversial opinion but just try.

Don't fucking install arch based distros. Just install Mint or Fedora plasma and be done.

Zero fucking setup after install. The fedora workstation has so much pre installed and configured I cannot explain. Only gripe with fedora is the media codec bullshit because obviously AMERICAN CAPTALISM.

I know. That's why the live usbs are a life saver. I really just use the live usb to test everything out.

I have a RTX 3050 mobile with Intel cpu laptop. So far... Everything works fine on fedora and arch. I haven't installed Debian based on it however

Ohh... No issues. I tried it with the world map 16kx16k image and it worked. My i gpu couldn't handle it but my gpu did open it

Maybe Elon and Trump just watched Code geass and they have a Zero in hold that will assissante both of them.

I can see everyone down voting you to oblivion... And that's sort of fair. But that's beside the point.

I was having trouble with NVIDIA while using mint early on and decided to switch to Fedora. Maybe try that once. Fedora has better defaults for nvidia.

Use the KDE Plasma spin btw. See if it works.

A dirt simple image viewer (github.com)
 

Tired of bloated image image viewers? Well, I was too and hence I created a dirt simple image viewer. Build from source or get it straight from AUR.

Want to switch between projects fast or too lazy to cd into the project directory? Now you directly do that from neovim.

I just distro hopped after using a distro almost a year. Is it normal? (lemm.ee)

Hi, I just want to share / get some opinion.

I started using Linux 2 years back. I was dual booting back then and after a year switched to Linux completely.

I started out using Ubuntu, hated it, installed Manjaro after a week and when pacmac broke the thing within 2 months, I watched a bunch of YouTube videos, read the arch wiki and installed arch. Things were going great except for some Nvidia issues (I am using an Optimus laptop) but utt was running smoothly. Then decided that I want to build a game engine and the nvidia issues were significant. So I read somewhere that Fedora has great nvidia support and I installed it and everything worked. I installed Fedora 39, and it worked. When Fedora 40 came, I upgraded no issues, Fedora 41 came, no issues.

But just a few days back when I had vacation, I decided my system was getting bloated and I didn't manually want to uninstall apps, I decided let's format it. But I thought... Arch might take up less space on my disk(1 have a 512gb nvme, and t 2tb hdd, but I like to put things like games and projects I am working on, on the nvme). So I installed arch and loving the experience. I installed Nvidia-open drm drivers and it just works.

TLDR: Is it normal to distro hop after being using a distro perfectly for so long?

PS: I used archinstall because I didn't want through the lengthy process again. And archinstall works great.

Is integrating yts api "illegal" (lemm.ee)
 

I am the developer of a project with a small community known as Offflix. Now I recently discovered that Yts has an api, and it is too irresistible for me to integrate it into my project as a simple in app click to download any movie.

So, would doing that and making the code open source be illegal? I am not a US citizen and I am not technically ripping movies, I am just packaging yts's functionality inside my app. Would github flag and destroy me repo if I do this?

Compilation mode for neovim (lemm.ee)

I was recently watching a tsoding stream when he was singing huge praises for the compilation mode in emacs, so I created a plug in to do essentially the same thing in neovim. Feel free to test it and share feedback.

Ebooks library (cross platform) (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/36285077

I have many ebooks I have from scouring the Internet in two formats: epub and PDF. I want something server like that lets me drop read them from any device on my local network and remembers where I left the book on device and let's me continue on another. I want the client app to have android and Linux support while the server should run on linux. Is there anything out there? Bonus points if it autographs metadata from the internet and organises them by topics, authors, ddc etc.

TLDR: An ebook library running on a Linux server with Android and Linux client software.

End-rs : A notification daemon for WMs using eww for their widgets (lemm.ee)
 

Hello. I recently created a notification daemon which uses eww widgets for its front-end display. So if you are already using eww, give it a go.

I know this is a very niche use case, but if a single person finds it useful, I will be glad.

Is there a specific religious term for the belief "God exists and he is evil"? (lemm.ee)
 

I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.

I created this project some years back and the project just reached v1.1.0. I know most people have jellyfin servers and all set up, but if you have just a local folder of all your series saved up, you can use this to remember what you were watching.

All feedback is welcome. You can also contribute to the project
