1·2 months agoMy use case is an expo, we have a game people can play on display and I’m doing things on my main screen, ideally I can continue doing work while people try the game but at the bare minimum I would like the keyboard to he restricted to that app.
Mine is lowest when im out, do you have an opinion on which of the 3 tools to use
I tried the loopback devices, didnt work, at most i made a script that worked, but i want it to work for audacity:
cat > ~/Music/record-desktop.sh << 'EOF' #!/bin/bash OUTPUT="${1:-$HOME/Music/Recordings/recording-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).wav}" pw-record --target 0 "$OUTPUT" & PID=$! sleep 0.5 pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FL pw-record:input_FL pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FR pw-record:input_FR echo "Recording to $OUTPUT (PID $PID) — press Enter to stop" read kill $PID echo "Done! Saved to $OUTPUT" EOF chmod +x ~/Music/record-desktop.sh
I am not using any app like qpwgraph to make connections, all i know is that this script works:
cat > ~/Music/record-desktop.sh << 'EOF' #!/bin/bash OUTPUT="${1:-$HOME/Music/Recordings/recording-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).wav}" pw-record --target 0 "$OUTPUT" & PID=$! sleep 0.5 pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FL pw-record:input_FL pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FR pw-record:input_FR echo "Recording to $OUTPUT (PID $PID) — press Enter to stop" read kill $PID echo "Done! Saved to $OUTPUT" EOF chmod +x ~/Music/record-desktop.shas for everything else:
[spiderunderurbed@daspidercave:~/Music]$ systemctl status --user pipewire-pulse.service ● pipewire-pulse.service - PipeWire PulseAudio Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.service; linked-runtime; preset: ignored) Drop-In: /nix/store/admlblh3rvzwjyhvgl8wf5fdr44iqmgc-user-units/pipewire-pulse.service.d └─overrides.conf Active: active (running) since Thu 2026-02-26 18:55:45 NZDT; 23min ago Invocation: f234a6d525b844ba9ee769e0d46787ec TriggeredBy: ● pipewire-pulse.socket Main PID: 3143 (pipewire-pulse) Tasks: 3 (limit: 18874) Memory: 14.5M (peak: 20.7M, swap: 2.5M, swap peak: 2.5M, zswap: 472.1K) CPU: 1.618s CGroup: /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user@1000.service/session.slice/pipewire-pulse.service └─3143 /nix/store/z8pz8hz2psggqsws4n7mzbbdghpcxm71-pipewire-1.4.9/bin/pipewire-pulse Feb 26 18:55:45 daspidercave systemd[2666]: Started PipeWire PulseAudio.

I managed to fix it for pw-record, I dont know how to get it working for audacity:
cat > ~/Music/record-desktop.sh << 'EOF' #!/bin/bash OUTPUT="${1:-$HOME/Music/Recordings/recording-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).wav}" pw-record --target 0 "$OUTPUT" & PID=$! sleep 0.5 pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FL pw-record:input_FL pw-link bluez_output.30:50:75:16:40:A6:monitor_FR pw-record:input_FR echo "Recording to $OUTPUT (PID $PID) — press Enter to stop" read kill $PID echo "Done!

3·8 months agoIt just seems overkill to have a entire partition or drive encrypted for probably a few images, not like 2-5 but there are plenty I want encrypted, there is plenty I dont need encrypted.
I dont think i ever set AV1 encoding inside OBS, looking at my settings, it just shows h.264:
I tried nvidia-offload, as I set up PRIME awhile ago, it didnt help, here is the logs, if its useful: https://pastebin.com/CiJ4Zyjw
Idk if OBS would actually respect the GPU being handed to it, or if it’ll do something weird with screen capture, its weird per-gpu settings is not a option with OBS, if this is a OBS bug, i can file a bug report. Hopefully it can be resolved here.
I have the hyprland portals installed, and the kde ones, due to some issue I had to explicitly install them so idk if that will mess with the way applications handle it, assuming not, and yes I have two gpus, one dgpu, and one igpu, the dgpu is directly connected to my hdmi, does OBS stuggle with 2 gpus? still, that sounds like it would be a issue with capturing the monitor managed by my igpu. Not a reason to stop a second pipewire capture.
What logs do you need? I provided some from running OBS but i assume it isnt enough, what logs should I collect, or is there a flag i need to run with OBS
Weird it’s called clicker when you can do key presses too, but I’ll check it out. It looks like it fulfills my use case
If it works on wayland then yes
What’s the difference between this and ydotool
Unfortunately it ain’t a gui
- Probably the second, I am not hard set on a wiki
- I know but, the tools you have during the creation process itself, its useful for writing books as you said, styling, but easy cross-page linking and a whole host of other things you might need for worldbuilding I think isnt avalible in libreoffice.
How good is cross page linking?
Ehh, libreoffice doesn’t even come close to what I am going for, I doubt libreoffice can come anywhere close to being used in any wiki, world building or not, transitions between pages are not seamless, and the best thing it can do is just make a document look good, which is of course useful for like all other use cases, but not for a wiki, think along the line of fandom.com or wikipedia, it would be difficult to recreate something like that with libreoffice, it simply just addresses a different use case.
2·1 year agoWhats unique about herbstluftwm? I am curious about what it has to offer to you verses other tilers.
Weird thing is, is that. I only had one mscp in my app state, it was behind a arc mutex and code that accessed it was running asynchronously, but, somehow they all got the same messages for a bit, then like, stopped or got very partial messages except the intended recipient (they got the full message). Is this some memory issue, or race condition?
I don’t have this issue switching to broadcast but I’m confused
??? He said he talked to the principal multiple times
My use case is an expo, we have a game people can play on display and I’m doing things on my main screen, ideally I can continue doing work while people try the game but at the bare minimum I would like the keyboard to he restricted to that app.
