Same. I’m an adult. I can choose what I want to see on my phone while I poop.

Same.

I dont do much customization, but the endevorOS community edition has decent defaults.

Just working cleanly with tiling feels so good. You dont have to use the mouse to move all the windows around. But if you hold the super key, you can just drag windows around to make a perfect layout. But often than not, i just want 2 windows side by side, with no wasted space. Done.

Poor quality is fine, I really just want to catch a game or two that I’ve missed. Probably be listening to it more than actually watching. This looks perfect. Thanks!

Hmmm. I’m not familiar with mad titan. I haven’t been on the kodi train in a long time. Might be worth a look. Thanks!

Damn. Looked perfect until I saw the date of the most recent replay: February 2024 (the Super Bowl)

I wonder if there’s a setting or filter I can’t see on mobile. I’ll check on my pc when I get home.

Thanks for the reply!

 

I travel a lot on weekends, so I often don’t get to watch my teams Sunday game. There used to be a site where you could go and watch the recordings of the past weeks games, but I can’t seem to find anything like that lately.

Anyone know of a way without paying $500 for NFL Sunday ticket?

That’s why I always use hexagonal windows. It never goes out of style.

 

Just a can of green curry paste, coconut milk, and veggies: squash (garden is in full squash mode), onion, and mushrooms. Crispy baked tofu coated with nooch and garlic powder. Not pictured: rice and fresh herbs.

Thai curry is such an easy and delicious way to consume massive amounts of veggies that are piling up on your counter. Saute everything individually, including the curry paste. Then dump it all together, add coconut milk, and you’re done!

 

Classic margarita pizza- fresh tomatoes and basil from the garden. Garlic and miyoko’s mozz. Sauce is crushed tomatoes, spices and olive oil.

Before going vegan I was a pretty big pizza nerd, so I’ve been honing my crust recipe, and I got a 16” Ooni Koda that I use to fire them. The oven was used almost entirely for za until I went full vegan. Now I make more naan and pita than za. But I still indulge every once in a while. The only vegan cheese worth using IMO is miyokos liquid mozz. Once we get convincing lab fermented vegan mozz—- my health is doomed.

Damn, that would be perfect. I’ll give that a go. Thanks

Interesting… but that just replaces an existing step with another step. I’d like to reduce the overall steps to get to each system. And if I can’t do that, I’d at least like to switch the order to win>EOS>Deb

 

So, I have my desktop configured with two drives, one has a regular windows install on it that I need to play games with my brother. That works fine.
My second drive originally had Debian on it. But I wanted to also install EndeavorOS. At this point in time, all 3 work, but the selection process to access each system is painfully different.

To access Windows, I just boot from cold, and hit enter or wait for the timer to run out on Windows booting. But when I hit esc to cancel booting Windows, it brings me to Debian's GRUB selector. But I think when I installed EOS I used the default settings, and I believe it doesn't use GRUB by default (systemd). So the GRUB menu I get only has Debian or Windows. If I hit 'esc' again I am brought to the grub> command line. Here the only thing I know how to do is type "exit" and it closes this grub> cmd line and opens another, very similar one. I type 'exit' again and I am finally met with EndeavorOS's boot selector (I believe this is systemd?)

Now I know from my first dual boot with windows/Debian that I am pretty much stuck having windows boot loader run first, so my perfect scenario of having a single selector off boot is a pipe dream, but I'd love to remove a few of the GRUB cmd steps in getting to EOS (chances are I will only need the Debian system for very specific tasks. odds are I will end up removing it) I'm guessing if I would have told the EOS installer to use GRUB it would have potentially added EOS to the GRUB selection screen? Is it possible to rectify this without wiping and reinstalling with different boot loader options?

Not true. VFTs prefer nutrient poor soil. In fact, the main reason owners of these plants fail to keep them alive is not watering them with pure enough water. You’re supposed to use water with a TDS below 100ppm. Rain water or RO water preferred.

The reason these plants can survive in such low nutrient soils is because they evolved a different mechanism for obtaining nutrients.

Biked to the farmers market to snag some giant lions mane mushrooms. Cooked/pressed them into steaks. Marinated with beet root powder, red wine, oil, seasonings in the fridge. Take it out, sear it up, and slice it.

I can’t add a photo in the body of this post, but if there’s interest, I’ll post another with just the “meat”

Edit: home made fresh corn tortillas, homemade beans, and my take on Spanish rice.

 

Couple experiments with making tofu replicate the texture and fishiness of salmon.

Marinade is full of seaweed(flavor) and beet juice(color).

The “skin” is made with rice paper and nori. Struggled to keep the skin stuck to the tofu, and varying cook methods achieved varying levels of crispness. But on the whole- great stuff. Great excuse to eat a block of tofu with pretty minimal prep.

I make a version of this all the time. A few tips that I’ve found help to really make this work well:

Ratio of VWG to tofu. The ingredients list always say 1 block. But if you can’t get the exact one they recommend (the super firm) your ratio is going to be off. I use regular extra firm blocks, and I press the water out of them. My final measurements are 370g tofu:120g vital wheat gluten.

Internal temp. Seitan is just really dense bread. And when you cook bread, the recipes always include a temp. You want crispy French bread: 200f. You want a moist sandwich loaf: 180f. The same logic applies to seitan. I always try to get mine to finish at 190f. Too low, and the texture is weirdly gummy. And if you let it go above 200 it forms bubbles and becomes more like a sponge (you’ll see the outside edges get this way anyway.)

Compress it. Yes, wrapping it tight is key to not letting it expand, but it will naturally inflate. What I do is rest a cast iron on top of it after it comes out of the oven. Let it come down to room temp under pressure. Then rest it in the fridge overnight.

Those are the big ones. Good luck!

 

Some pan fried squash on the side.

I love making naan in my pizza oven. Especially since I don’t make nearly as much pizza now that I don’t eat cheese!

We use extra firm tofu instead of paneer, and it’s texture is actually pretty perfect for it.

 

I make seitan deli meat loaves in two flavors: Turkey and ham. This is the ham variety. Sliced thin, and lightly toasted in a pan with a dash of oil. Let the edges get crispy, pile it up, and slap a piece of fake cheese on it. Cover the pan and let melt.

In a different pan, sauté some diced onion in olive oil until slightly carmelized. Turn off heat, add horseradish mustard, mix.

Toast ciabatta bun, spread the onion/mustard mix on, top with the meat/cheese pile, load up some pickles and go crazy.

I have a pic of the inside after I took a bite which better shows the texture of the “ham”, but I have no idea how to add it.

I’ve also found that in the Netherlands, “vegan” and “vegetarian” get swapped often. So I’ve gotten used to telling people I’m lactose intolerant as well as vegan.

 

Sorry for the shit pic. I’m a bit drunk right now.

Made my normal crispy tofu bullshit, but instead of coating it in Buffalo sauce and wrapping it up with celery and ranch, I followed a recipe I stumbled into on YouTube: https://youtu.be/-zkj_8bOd58?si=oS_iEd8MtRdmbijD

I steamed some leftover rice, and cooked up some. Asparagus from the garden as well as some bok choy I had leftover. Shit was slappin.

 

EDIT: It seems something is causing my wireguard hanshake to fail. I can't find much on this particular error except "try rebooting the wg server". I rebooted everything, and I can't get it to connect unless the clients are already connected to the home wifi.

So I installed wg-easy on my one of my virtual machines on my proxmox "homelab". It seems to be working, and I installed the client wireguard-tools on my phone (via app), and on my laptop (EndeavorOS), and on my minecraft server (mineOS also in proxmox).

The web client for wg-easy shows all 3 clients connected and transmitting data.

I used my routers app to open the port to the wg-easy server.

I attempted to use my phone's cell network to pretend like I am not home, and simply ping my minecraft server. I tried with the wg ip (10.8.0.x) and I tried pinging the normal wlan ip (192.168.x.x). Neither work. I'm really confused as to why this simple test didn't work. The documentation on wireguard's site is pretty sparse when it comes to testing your own setup. Doe anyone have any resource to help me understand how this should work?

Side note: I have to have wireguard installed on every computer in my home network if I want to be able to reach them, correct?

other side note: If I wanted to reach my minecraft webUI (mineOS) from outside my network, what address should I use?

 

Okay, I am super new to tiling windows managers, and let me just say - Sway made me an instant convert. I'm obsessed. But I still have no clue what I'm doing.

So I have been trying out every status bar I can to see what looks good, what feels good, and what has the best efficiency for some of my SUPER low-grade hardware.

This brings me to yambar. It is touted as the most resource efficient status bars, and because I only want to see a few things (battery, ram, cpu, volume, time/date), I figured it was a good fit. I downloaded and installed it (used AUR) and I had a few issues getting it installed, but eventually go there. (I should probably say right now that I'm also new to Arch. All my previous Linux experience has been Debian based.)

So now that yambar is installed, I snagged the example config.yaml and moved/renamed it to ~/.config/yambar/config.yaml. Now most of the previous status bars I've been trying required you to add/change something in the ~/.config/sway/config to make them go. usually in between some bar:{status_command }. So I went ahead and tried to add status_command /usr/bin/yambar in there, and I just got errors.

I've read the documentation on yambar's codeberg like 100 times, and there isn't anything in there about how to actually activate this darn bar. I'm guessing I'm missing something totally noob.

Help?

Okay, most of the relevant information is in the title - I got a nice deal on an old Lenovo X280, threw Debian on there with KDE. I have an HP Elite book for my work, and thus a work provided HP G2 DisplayLink dock with USBC connection.

In order for this dock to work, I had to install the displaylink drivers for "Ubuntu" from here. The drivers work as expected, and I am able to dock the X280 to my workstation, and use both external monitors. It feels pretty nice when I am just browsing/emailing/bullshitting. But when I tried to play Minecraft on it, the game feels incredibly laggy.

At first I thought this was due to an under-powered graphics card, but I did some testing with the external monitors using an HDMI cord directly to the X280, and everything feels clean and smooth when I use it in that way. The other odd glitch is that when I have the laptop docked, and I am trying to play MC, if I put MC on the external monitor = lag. But if I just drag the MC window to the laptop's screen = no lag.

I'm assuming this issue is related to the dock and/or drivers. I've looked around for some sort of workaround, but came up empty handed. So now I think the solution might be a different dock.
The dock would need to:

  1. support USBC connections to my HP Elitebook, preferably without new drivers needed for the HP (dumb work won't give me admin rights, but I think I could convince them to install the necessary drivers for me. I WFH, so it makes sense that I would need a setup at home.
  2. support USB/Lightning to my X280
  3. have 1+ HDMI out or 2+ Display port out

So... Does anyone have any experience with Linux (Debian preferred) compatible docks that don't introduce input delay when gaming?

ps. Sweet community you got here. I subbed, and it's DEFINITELY going to result in me buying more stuff...
