The source code for the AI is open for you to read, afaik. I didn’t actually find a link to the code on the site but it claimed the source code was open

Looks to be proper open source too, not just open weights or open parameters

If you’re gonna self-host you’re gonna need to learn to use a search engine. Find a tool that can be used to check what ports are open for a machine, there a several available.

I would try searching things like “Linux cli port scanner”

I just don’t understand your logic. In your mind it’s okay to make an assumption about the content of a link based off the name of the link. However, it’s not okay to make an assumption about the content of the other link and find out why the OP started the discussion. Rather, you believe it would be better to attack the OP for not explaining what their links were to your satisfaction.

Is that right?

The upfront reason was so that you would understand the discussion you’re part of lol

You’re learning a new workflow, it’s gonna take a second. Don’t get discouraged, you’re just fighting habits from your old work flow, it’ll be buttery smooth once you’ve built new habits.

That out of the way, you need to learn your hotkeys. Super+enter is gonna get you into a terminal by default, from there you want to get into your configs (check out /etc if it’s not in .config yet) to find your Sway config. That little dude is your best friend now, it’s your Options window from a desktop environment.

I haven’t double checked your account, but I assume you’re the tiling/floating poster from the other day? In which case I would suggest doing some research into class and appid filters within the config, this is how you’re going to define windows to automatically float AFAIK

Long term, I agree. To test for 3 hours, and then decide which partition to nuke and which to keep? For this particular use case I’d prefer it

Have you hit it with anything to check if your ports are still open? There are a handful of tools for the task

I actually don’t like this advice for this particular use case. The live session is gonna be sluggish because of the USB bottleneck which will make it look like the games run a lot worse than they would with a proper install.

Especially since this person also is already Linux proficient, I would say just jump into a dual boot setup or wipe the windows partition momentarily. Sure, it’s gonna take a little longer and it’s a bit tedious to have to reinstall windows if you change your mind but I’d prefer a bit tedium over a poor benchmark

What port do you have SSH set to? What ports did you change the services to? Is the SSH port open?

I still think tiling is ultimately the feature you’re looking for, even if it’s on a floating DE. Most tiling WMs (Sway included) have the ability to float windows, and can even do so by default while still giving you the keyboard-based workflow that you’re after.

Tiling isn’t an all or nothing thing, Plasma for example is a floating DE that is capable of tiling in exactly the way you’re describing by default

I did s bit of poking around. It looks like there’s a tool on GitHub for this exact purpose, or you can just save to a .docx from OneNote then use pandoc to convert to markdown

Agreed! It was a struggle for me and a boon for others.

This is something I run into rather often because I crunch through information. Just skip me to the intermediate course and give me a synopsis of the beginner course and most of the time I’m off to the races

This was a big driver for my distro hopping, until I landed on purple Arch. I’ll either go to the blue team or Gentoo or LFS or something if I decide to hop again.

My struggle was that more beginner-friendly distros like mint and Fedora workstations were too beginner-friendly. I struggled to find things to learn because I installed it and had an out-of-the-box windows experience

Reserved memory

Some times. This is actually where we run into one of the issues with open source software, competing standards. Some tools will call your swap or cache “reserved” regardless if it’s actually being used or not. They’re not wrong, it is reserved, but it’s reserved for usage in emergency situations rather than being reserved in the way we look at the rest of memory

Lemmy is a link aggregator, this guy posted a link to his website and a brief (albeit lacking, I will agree with you there) description of what the links were. I don’t see any issue promoting free content in the forms of links on a link aggregator.

I also think there’s sort of a social agreement that if you’re going to make a comment about a post that exists purely as a link to elsewhere, you should probably click the link so that you know what is being discussed instead of what we’re doing, discussing the link itself lol.

I dunno if you’re trolling me or if your UI just looks different but

Having the link at the top of the post like this, because it’s embedded into the actual post instead of the body like the second link, makes it pretty clear to me that that’s a discussion link and not a podcast link

The in-body link is to the podcast, but the post itself is a link to discuss.james.network which is a transcription of the guide

You don’t even have to listen to a podcast to find out how misguided this comment is. Click the link, it’s all transcribed. It’s not a question, it’s a guide.

If you’re not interested in the content, scroll past instead of being rude to people.

Are you required to use the Microsoft Suite or do they only care about the resulting file type? I would just use Libre if the latter, although I’d suggest spending a day or two getting used to the slightly altered workflow before introducing it to your work life.

If the former, keep it in the browser like others have mentioned. Web apps are kinda the direction they’re moving anyway, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re all getting used to them in a few years anyway
