  • I also use krunner but unless I’ve misconfigured it, I wouldn’t call it fast (and it freezes a lot since it runs in the background).

    Compared to when I used rofi on hyprland (which was really fast). I’m back on KDE cause of the hyprland toxicity debacle, and honesty the only thing that isn’t fast, customizable, and reliable is the app runner.

    Krunner also has a weird quirk where as it loads entries, it will change the currently selected option so when you hit Enter, it will actually not execute the one you want, but instead run “Install <random package from fuzzy search>”

    Talking out loud I should probably bind alt+space to back to rofi or try Fuzzel or something






  • Well you have to state why it wasn’t good. It was incredibly region-dependent, but if you live near one of their endpoints the latency wasn’t noticeable and the quality was great, as it was for me.

    In the end I got to play a bunch of games for free, and have an extra controller I still use, so there’s that. They made us whole, at least, after they shut down (I even imported my into the breach save game into Steam with Google takeout after)




  • By some definition. They have always been usable to some degree because I think animators or something use Linux commercially on Nvidia, and for gpgpu they are still top class on linux (nothing comes close)

    They haven’t always been the best for gaming or desktop (Wayland) use though, since Intel and AMD opened up their drivers.

    Arguably in my experience Nvidia has been far less buggy for the last 30+ years on x11, and with this change they may have finally reached parity on Wayland, haven’t tried it myself.



  • I guess it’s finally to the point where selfhosters can admit to using k8s and not be bombarded by comments saying it’s overkill, which has happened in the past for:

    • Self hosting at all
    • Using VMs
    • Using containers
    • Using docker compose
    • Using k8s (⬅️ I guess we are here)
    • Using helm charts or whatever ends up replacing this

    Anyway, I believe there is a tool also to turn docker compose files into k8s manifests if we want to take this a step further!
