Foss app for adding speech bubbles to images? (lemmy.ml)
 

Preferably something that doesn't require login or registration. An online app would work too, I suppose.

Github Bounties? (lemmy.ml)

I have a couple github issues that have been hanging out for more than several months. I'd like to incentivize them with a bounty to get a solution sooner than later. Has anyone tried Boss Bounty or something similar?

Boss Bounty looks like the most robust solution, but I'm not a fan of their 8% cut. That said, I don't know how you do something like this without a middle-man. If anyone has any first hand experience with something like this, I'd love to hear about it.

What's the history of the "meh" key? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

While the meta key is well documented, the meh key is vaguely mentioned in multiple modern split keyboards such as ZSA keyboards and the Kinesis Advantage.

I'm seeing super, hyper, and meta on the Space-Cadet, but no meh.

Thanks for the reply! That would be good info to include in the future wiki. Still curious if this key originated with some 1970s era keyboard or if it came from something more modern.

Well bite my shiny metal ass - how is there no wikipedia entry for "meh key"? They have alt key, control key, and even super key, but no meh key. I'm curious if the meh key came from a specific keyboard or what the origins are.

I made a thing - NixOS updates module for Waybar (lemmy.ml)
 

This is my first FOSS code project. If anyone has any constructive suggestions for improvement, please let me know.

Gaming on NixOS ? in c/[email protected]

I did both - I have steam and steam-run in environment.systemPackages and I have packages.steam.enable = true;

Here's my hardware config:

  hardware = {
    bluetooth.enable = true; # enables support for Bluetooth
    bluetooth.powerOnBoot = true; # powers up the default Bluetooth controller on boot
    opengl = {
      enable = true;
      extraPackages = with pkgs; [
        intel-media-driver # LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD
        intel-media-sdk
        intel-vaapi-driver # For older processors. LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965
        vaapiIntel
        vaapiVdpau
        libvdpau-va-gl
      ];
    };
    pulseaudio = {
      enable = true;
      support32Bit = true;
      extraConfig = "load-module module-combine-sink";
    };
    xpadneo.enable = true;
  };

It's a 2013 macbook air, which is weird because when I had OSX installed it played Stardew fine.

Just tried GE-Proton-9-9 and the play button goes to "stop" and then right back to "play". I tried launching from terminal using nix-shell and steam-run so I could see the error messages when it crashes. Thanks for looking at your setup to see what was going on.

Apparently, I'm not the only one. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/help-running-stardew-valley-in-nixos/48574

How do you avoid those errors?

Some games don't work, despite what ProtonDB says, such as Stardew Valley.

Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Honest quetion, how/where are drivers license photos saved? Is saving photos at the state level more or less secure than saving at the federal level? Also, the TSA supposedly just uses scans to speed up and more accurately verify, and claims not to save the scans (for now). If they wanted a database of everyone's face scan, couldn't they just subpoena every state's DMV/tag-agency for license photos?

Is there an image viewer like nsxiv, but with native Wayland support? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Another okay option I just stumbled on is Viewnior. The only thing it lacks is webp file support.

Thanks for confirming that you're seeing the same thing. Must be a bug.

Ahh that's good to know. I had no idea about libadwaita. Thank you!

Is there an image viewer like nsxiv, but with native Wayland support? (codeberg.org)
 

According to this issue, it looks like there are no plans, understandably, for making a version/fork of nsxiv but with native Wayland support.

Any recommendations for a simple image viewer in Hyprland?

Synology Drive debug messages [NixOS, Hyprland] (mynixos.com)
 

Synology drive doesn't start on boot even though I have it in my bash script like all my other startup programs which load fine. I get the following debug messages when I run synology-drive from terminal:

debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_app_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_data_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_working_dir_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_drive_ui_path"
QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.
    Available styles: Windows, Fusion

Mynixos.com doesn't say that I need to include anything special in my configuration.nix file for the synology-drive-client. What am I doing wrong? Are these debug message related to why it's not loading on startup?

Does the legacy of AppOutlet live on? (github.com)
 

I noticed the AppOutlet repo has been archived, but I really liked the idea of one store to rule them all (I.e. snaps, appimages, flatpaks, etc. in one place).

Any current recommendations for an alternative?

Anyone migrate from PlayerPro to a FOSS alternative? (play.google.com)
 

Looking for a music player that will do a good job of loading album art. It all looks great in PlayerPro, but I tried Auxio and Aplayer but they didn't do a great job of pulling in the album art. Tracks were also incorrectly lumped together with mixed albums/artists.

Any recommendations?

FOSS Alternative to MakeMKV (www.reddit.com)
 

Looking for a FOSS way to backup my encrypted Blueray disks so I can stream them with Jellyfin and not worry about the disks getting scratched.

Much like the linked post, I hope this thread serves as a snapshot or "state of the industry" as of April 2024.

Anyone working with 345 MHz devices/sensors in home assistant (e.g, 2GIG devices)? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm in the same boat as this Home Assistant user / Redditor, but it looks like some of the key replies to his question have been deleted.

I moved into a house and it looks like Vivint had rewired the original security system with a 2GIG TAKE-345 wired to wireless converter (transmits on 345 MHz). Can anyone recommend a RTL-SDR dongle that's compatible with HAOS, preferably plug-and-play?

Voice Input Privacy Concerns on GrapheneOS? (lemmy.ml)
 

Any privacy concerns with using the futo-whisper open source voice library?

I was able to add their apk repo to Droidify, but am hesitant to install Futo Voice Input. Although it looks like it integrates nicely with OpenBoard.

The other option is to install Sayboard, which works with the native Graphene keyboard. Although OpenBoard with Futo Voice looks like a more streamlined experience, IMHO.

Any thoughts on privacy here?

ZigBee RGB Lightbulb w/o 3rd party app (lemmy.ml)
 

Any recommendations for a ZigBee RGB Lightbulb w/o 3rd party app - at least not a closed source app.

I heard the Phillips Hue works well but I'd like to be able to install and configure the bulbs with Home Assistant (or another open source app at a minimum). Any suggestions?
