Just remember that "Linux is not Windows" and to "go in" like It's your very first time using a PC and you'll be fine.

[Solved] This maybe a strange question but can I run a Linux app in a separate container/sandbox? Without its dependencies bloating my host OS? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

There is always firejail which is very "even your mom can use it" in terms of usage.

e.g install it, type cd / && sudo firecfg, then your password and thats it.

animatrix: ascii animation + matrix effect in a terminal window in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Not by the slightest.

~~You can see it by yourself right now if you have docker: docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --cap-drop=ALL --read-only --net none --security-opt=no-new-privileges --name ascii-matrix defnotgustavom/ascii-matrix~~

~~-EDIT- Whoops. Just realized its a fork. Eeeeeehhhh... it'll give you a nice idea regardless.~~

I actually created a new image with it -- docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --cap-drop=ALL --read-only --net none --security-opt=no-new-privileges --name animatrix defnotgustavom/animatrix

Oh yeah? Then redo the classic doom code in pure bash.

Nice job. Also, I went ahead and made a docker image out of it.

Nazi Zombies: Portable is a free and open source Call of Duty: Zombies demake in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I'll try it on my Orange pi zero 3 just for giggles.

-EDIT- I just did (straight from their site), and welp... 5 minutes to load a map, lots of stuttering yet performance was okay'ish ( ~25 frames per second). Not bad for a little board with only 1 GiB of ram and the power draw capped at 2W.

-EDIT2- Nvm that, I grabbed the binary, ran it locally and the experience was much, much better. Absolutely playable.

How do I run a command on a remote PC and make it display the result on its screen instead on the client pc? in c/linux4noobs@lemmy.world
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Yep, using "WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1 $command" worked in my case. Thank you very much.

Title. Yep, I'm trying to multitask with a Orange pi zero 3 (remotely) without the need of kvm's.

Both client and remote PC's are wayland-related. Trying to connect w/ ssh.

Nintendo Targets YouTube Accounts Showing Emulated Games in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Imagine being a long time Nintendo fan to end up being sued because playing their games (and sharing your experience with others) is now considered the same as stealing.

That hurts a little in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world

Time to change this community name to u/reallyoldgames.

The Dislike to Ubuntu in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] GustavoM@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

Ub(loa)tu tries to cater to everyone whilst ending up in pleasing no one -- it has too much unnecessary clutter.

How do I make my own internet? (lemmy.world)
 

Title. Just imagine the possibilities of having your own "homemade internet"!

Does leaving a single board computer caseless can be a problem or not? (lemmy.world)
 

...other than the logical factors of dust and the damage it can cause to components.

t. Got a orange pi zero 3 running caseless for almost an year.

Throwing all files in a .dot directory -- does it improves security of a docker container? (lemmy.world)
 

Title. In other words, make a .dot directory, make it as $ROOTFS, in a distroless image, chown it to a specific user and group and then pack everything in it.

5
Does making a tmpfs at $ROOTFS/tmp and then symlinking it with ~/.cache affects performance in any way? (lemmy.world)
 

Title. Because I just did it on my Orange pi zero 3 and performance feels a bit slower albeit more stable compared to making a tmpfs out of both directories. That, or I might be speaking gibberish, idk. Just curious.

Thanks in advance.

How do I check if a specific command is playing sound? (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by GustavoM@lemmy.world to c/linux4noobs@lemmy.world

Title. I'm trying to come up with a bash script that starts playing gregorian chants when a live stream is not playing sound. And to stop playing when the live stream stars playing audible sound again. Maybe something that monitors the volume of a specific command? I've no idea, honestly.

Being a bit more specific... the live stream is being played via ffplay/yt-dlp and I'll use mpv to play the gregorian chants. Alsa.Thanks in advance.

How do I enable drm support for panfrost? (lemmy.world)
 

Title. More specifically, for the orange pi zero 3. It has a mali-G31 gpu. Thanks in advance.

Editing (or running) file(s) regardless of current directory. [Cli tip] (lemmy.world)
 

tl;dr

Editing;

$photoortexteditoryoulike $(find / -iname incompletefilenam*)

Running;

exec $(find / -iname incompletepackagenam*)

Interacting (copying, moving, etc);

$desiredinteraction $(find / -iname desiredfileorpackag*) /desired/output/directory

It may be a "not-so-attractive" tip for most of you, but I find it really useful when I want to edit a specific file (that is located alongside several ones, like a picture or a text file). Or when I've finished compiling something and I want to find the binary file asap. Saves me lots of time on really slow pcs (like a rpi zero).

Is it possible to parse a rss reader through ffplay? (lemmy.world)
 

Title. Basically, a lower panel that shows the latest news, etc (fetched from a rss link or a sequence of rss links) while scrolling left (ala CNN). Why? I'm trying to make a "smart clock" of sorts that shows a live stream, a real time clock and -also- the latest news -- all crumbled together in a single screen.

I'm using a orange pi zero 3 w/ Dietpi installed. And due to the expected "crazyness" of this idea, I had to resort to you guys.

Thanks in advance.

Title. I'm trying to come up with a fully functional, optimal yet read-only scheme for fstab and I could use some pointers.

Thanks in advance.

Has any of you ever tried the "Ragnok 2 gun mouse"? If so, how good is it? (lemmy.world)

Title. Been using "conventional mouses" since a while, and I'm in the mood to try something new. Even so considering its a ergonomic mouse that won't screw my wrists even more while gaming(I'm over 40 y/o).

There are plenty of reviews for it on the internet (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_2wixvrWPg&pp=ygUVcmFnbm9rIG1vdXNlIDIgcmV2aWV3 for instance) but I'd like to hear some "real world" reviews about it.
