There’s a host app that runs on the host machine alongside Sunshine that reads your Steam library, and the Deck plugin adds an icon on each game’s banner on your Deck. When you click the icon, the plugin communicates with the host app and then automatically starts a Moonlight/Sunshine session that then starts up the game you were on. You only have to add one “app” to Sunshine and set up the MoonDeckBuddy app on the host, and then you have streaming for your entire library available.
That’s fair if you go into desktop mode a lot.
It’s still usable, for sure. The Bazzite team back ported the WiFi and BT patches, so those function. But if you rely on reducing refresh rate to save battery like I do, that can be a big one.
The audio issue isn’t too big of a deal, you just have to do a full reboot to go back into game mode. Just takes a few extra seconds.
But if you already have an LCD, I see the wisdom in waiting for the team to iron out OLED support.
Mainline is also missing some OLED patches around changing the panel refresh rate and audio cutting out when switching from desktop back to game mode, last I recall. Those are the issues holding me back from installing Bazzite on my OLED.
I could go in-depth, but really, the best way I can describe my docker usage is as a simple and agnostic service manager. Let me explain.
Docker is a container system. A container is essentially an operating system installation in a box. It’s not really a full installation, but it’s close enough that understanding it like that is fine.
So what the service devs do is build a container (operating system image) with their service and all the required dependencies - and essentially nothing else (in order to keep the image as small as possible). A user can then use Docker to run this image on their system and have a running service in just a few terminal commands. It works the same across all distributions. So I can install whatever distro I need on the server for whatever purpose and not have to worry that it won’t run my Docker services. This also means I can test services locally on my desktop without messing with my server environment. If it works on my local Docker, it will work on my server Docker.
There are a lot of other uses for it, like isolated development environments and testing applications using other Linux distro libraries, to name a couple, but again, I personally mostly just use it as a simple service manager.
tldr + eli5 - App devs said “works on my machine”, so Docker lets them ship their machine.
That sounds like the default GitHub boilerplate message, to be fair.
My ISP says my IP is technically dynamic, but it hasn’t changed once in the 6 years I’ve had their service. But that’s for the best, since they’re the only choice for symmetrical gigabit and their only option for static IPs is for business accounts.
So I continue to trust that they won’t change it. Fingers crossed.
On Eternity, not yet. Hopefully an update for that comes soon. But there are other clients that have scaled sort implemented.
Scaled should be the new default, in my opinion. I like the visibility it gives smaller communities.
Since I upgraded my instance, I’ve been using Photon UI as a PWA and also testing Raccoon for Lemmy. I like Raccoon a lot, but it’s still new and a bit rough around the edges.
I started my homelab with a small form factor PC (not a NUC specifically, but similar). They can be very capable servers, depending on specs and your needs.
As for towers, you can do standard consumer workstations, too. I game on PC, so when I build a new rig every 3 or 4 years, my old one goes in the closet. Sometimes I just add it and have another server, sometimes I donate the current server to a friend or school. Point being, you don’t have to have a Threadripper CPU and ECC RAM to run a server.
That being said, if you plan on hosting critical services or non-critical-but-public services that you want to have high availability and stability, it might be a good idea to upgrade to enterprise hardware eventually. But definitely not needed if you’re just starting out or running personal, non-critical stuff.
A more crude variation than using dedicated ripping tools is using yt-dlp. If you need a login to a service, you can pass the username and password or login with a browser and pass in the browser’s cookies. I’ve personally heard you can do that to at least rip sub-gated Twitch VODs, anyway.
Oh, I wasn’t aware of that at all, my bad. Bazzite looks much more polished, as well.
Look into Obtainium. Lets you install apps straight from the code repository’s release page. I’ve moved to managing all my open source apps with it.
Hmmm. I would think that would work, but this is about the extent of my networking knowledge, sorry. :(
The tool tip gives the IP ranges that it opens up, can you make your OpenVPN network live in one of those ranges and try?
You need to enable local network sharing on the Mullvad devices.
So that file can go anywhere you want, but
~/bin
is a good spot (or~/.bin
if you like a tidy home folder). You can name it whatever you want, but I’d personally name itsteam.sh
. And then in the Buddy settings, use that file as your new Steam binary.
