Wheany posted:yes, i'm aware of nano, and it's the closest linux has to a usable text editor, but it uses nonstandard keys, even going as far as acknowledging that the user pressed ctrl-s and instead of saving the file, it complains to the user: "XOFF ignored, mumble mumble" nano is probably the best shell text editor but that poo poo is ridiculously annoying

speaking of mesa, on chromeos in particular: is there any way to, idk, speed up virgl? cros uses it for containers and various vms. while performance isn't that bad, it's probably ~70% of native and i don't see why that necessarily should be since typically we're not talking about a full vm, just a fancy sandbox. compiling my own mesa helped a little

hurr durrr babby's first script is possibly dangerous and has so many dependencies it needs its own special sandbox to play in

let's just sandbox the container of the vm running a sandbox inside of a container (don't call it a sandbox). surely this will solve our problems

Sapozhnik posted:it's an AC97/HDA thing. There's a bunch of jacks that terminate on your motherboard and the sound chip doesn't really care whether it hooks a DAC or an ADC to them, it's all the same. On windows you get the REALTEK AUDIO CONFIGURATION MANAGER to configure that stuff, on Linux I'm sure there's some godawful ALSA or Pipewire CLI thing but nothing in GNOME Settings yet. it detects the number of pins on a trrs jack.

Sapozhnik posted:yeah steam for linux uses containerized runtimes now, because the previous solution was to support a fork of ubuntu from 2012 forever. they use a fork of flatpak for this although idk maybe they're going to reintegrate it with upstream flatpak later. i mean flatpak or no, it's gonna still be linked against a specific library and god help you if the version number changes

Cybernetic Vermin posted:being a fan of the general idea of software durability is indeed what won me over to container solutions despite them being kind of icky on a technical level. electron clients and big container lump software distribution is hardly sexy, but it is certainly *extremely* good for linux as it solves a lot of longstanging issues while not particularly ruining anything other than nerd peace of mind. yeah that's very true. i've gone on about the stupidity of containers within containers being containers all the way down on here before, but i can't deny they're useful af

Sapozhnik posted:idk maybe because you want to spawn a systemd unit and all of the process supervision machinery that entails instead of having crond doing a basic-rear end fork/exec there are a lot of different ways to do (almost, process supervision w/o fork/exec being the exception) all of that with cron anyway though? also why would you be using separate time formatting anyway?

sb hermit posted:I think the idea is to execute tasks relative to when the system starts up, rather than on boot itself while i can see that being a use case, not only can you query uptime but the system clock is most likely also utc (unless you're dual booting an old version of windows or something, i guess). so idk, maybe i'm missing something here

Truga posted:also, wine especially is an odd collection of software emulating an even weirder thing. if you're having trouble with it, do ps x | grep wine, there's probably a wineserver or some other poo poo still running that's waiting on something to happen, which sometimes prevents you from killing wine itself. i find "killall -9 wine wineserver winedevice.exe" works 100% reliably so far, but i'm sure there's other edge cases. tbqh `killall -9 wineserver` works just as well so does `killall -9 firefox` when it decides to poo poo all over your memory pages e: too many l's!
