How to encrypt an image (and other stuff) graphically on linux

Hi, I want a nice easy-to-use graphical program which can show image thumbnails atleast, and provide an easy way to encrypt images, and ideally other files too. I heard of a few programs but some dont show images and some look a bit dated ui wise. Seeing image thumbnails is pretty much a requirement as it would be alot of ...

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

It just seems overkill to have a entire partition or drive encrypted for probably a few images, not like 2-5 but there are plenty I want encrypted, there is plenty I dont need encrypted.

Can a raspberrypi 4 be used with lancache for a lan party well?

I heard varying things, I expect to have like 6-8 people come over in a few weeks and I want to set up lancache.net, but performance wise would it be horrible on a raspberrypi 4? or decent? I heard many things about lancache support on the raspberrypi, so I would like to hear about that too. ...

I disagree. I think that's far too extreme, there shouldn't be blanket bans because big tech ruins it for everyone, it harms stuff like minor indie creators or small buisnesses, that being said it needs to be HEAVILY regulated, like fridges should never have ads nor any smart appliance

SpiderUnderUrBed ,

Lots of appliances doesn't need to be smart, I agree, there are plenty borderline where I think there is some benifit, bulbs for example, I think things should be a lot more local, it's a shame people use cloud solutions instead of home assistant or how much telemetry these smart appliances are allowed to get.

I hope they add supports for more foldables!

Omori, not much to add, it was the first game to give me goosebumps, or only game so far, and truly feel sad

Fastest disk-space usage analyzer (for files), faster than ncdu?

Ncdu takes ages to run on my system, its like 500GB+ of storage space, but it takes roughly an hour to finish scanning, probably a bit less, is there any alternative which either constantly monitors my files so it always knows the sizes for me to navigate or is significantly faster than Ncdu?

How to do lazy-loading text from scrolling in vanilla js module?

Is there any js module for lazy-loading a files content? in vanilla js, (that a import via a script tag), so that if i scroll enough, it will send a request to the server for more of a files content, at a specific chunk of it, and the browser will add the rest of the content to the file viewer/editor ...

How or Should i use taskset to only allocate performance cores to my games (for linux)

Would this even give a significance preformance gain? allocating only P-Cores to games, and for games that make my laptop thermal throttle (it gets hot then very laggy until it cools), would the inverse (E-Cores) do anything? Mainly im looking to improve the performance of games, also how would i do this?

VERY simple web-based reliable file browser/hosting

Like how on Debian's website, you can find their ISO's and other related files in this very simple file browser layout which looks kind of old but I want that, know any projects or way to set something like that up? The modern self-hosted stuff just does not seem simple enough, and both aesthetically and from a functional ...

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

I have the hyprland portals installed, and the kde ones, due to some issue I had to explicitly install them so idk if that will mess with the way applications handle it, assuming not, and yes I have two gpus, one dgpu, and one igpu, the dgpu is directly connected to my hdmi, does OBS stuggle with 2 gpus? still, that sounds like it would be a issue with capturing the monitor managed by my igpu. Not a reason to stop a second pipewire capture.

What logs do you need? I provided some from running OBS but i assume it isnt enough, what logs should I collect, or is there a flag i need to run with OBS

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

I tried nvidia-offload, as I set up PRIME awhile ago, it didnt help, here is the logs, if its useful:
https://pastebin.com/CiJ4Zyjw

Idk if OBS would actually respect the GPU being handed to it, or if it'll do something weird with screen capture, its weird per-gpu settings is not a option with OBS, if this is a OBS bug, i can file a bug report. Hopefully it can be resolved here.

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

I dont think i ever set AV1 encoding inside OBS, looking at my settings, it just shows h.264:

Unfortunately as the post said, atleast two of those things are actually useful skills

GUI/App to automate key presses in linux wayland

There is xclicker which is a flatpak app, but it only automate mouse clicks, but there is nothing for key presses, I am surprised I could not find anything on this, but is there any GUI for this? Also is this possible on a technical level (in flatpak especially, I dont know if apps can simulate key presses). I know of ydotool, ...

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

Unfortunately it ain't a gui

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

What's the difference between this and ydotool

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

If it works on wayland then yes

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

Weird it's called clicker when you can do key presses too, but I'll check it out. It looks like it fulfills my use case

FOSS Self-hostable or desktop app wiki (great for worldbuilding)?

I heard of a few wikis and desktop apps which are FOSS, some has UI's which look a bit old for, there are a few things like logseq I might try but from trying for a bit, i dont know how suitable it is for my usecase, but I want something that would be more specialized or at the very least have features that would be amazing for ...

SpiderUnderUrBed OP , (edited )

Ehh, libreoffice doesn't even come close to what I am going for, I doubt libreoffice can come anywhere close to being used in any wiki, world building or not, transitions between pages are not seamless, and the best thing it can do is just make a document look good, which is of course useful for like all other use cases, but not for a wiki, think along the line of fandom.com or wikipedia, it would be difficult to recreate something like that with libreoffice, it simply just addresses a different use case.

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

How good is cross page linking?

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,
  1. Probably the second, I am not hard set on a wiki
  2. I know but, the tools you have during the creation process itself, its useful for writing books as you said, styling, but easy cross-page linking and a whole host of other things you might need for worldbuilding I think isnt avalible in libreoffice.

FOSS Android OS (better-privacy, community driven) that runs on Foldables

gameserver-rs, a new game hosting solution aimed towards Kubernetes and more!

Hello, I created gameserver-rs, (https://github.com/SpiderUnderUrBed/gameserver-rs), because pterodactyl does not support Kubernetes (and I doubt they would officially add support), there was a attempt, but it was archived probably due to the effort required to maintain something to the level of pterodactyl, but I want ...

Should there be a law mandating all AI generated content be tagged?

Title, or at least the inverse be encouraged. This has been talked about before, but with how bad things are getting, and how realistic goods ai generated videos are getting, anything feels better than nothing, AI generated watermarks, or metadata can be removed, but thats not the point, the point is deterrence. Immediately all ...

Will kernel-level anti-cheat ever work on linux?

From both a technical perspective and if the maintainers of these anti-cheat will consider porting or re-writing kernel level anti-cheat to work on linux, is it possible? Do you think that the maintainers of kernel level anti-cheat will be adamant in not doing it, or that the kernel even supports it or will support it. I think ...

What load balancers can do HA (preferably open source, web gui)

Hello, I am looking for a alternative to HA Proxy, as the GUI options for it, are both third-party and not very good looking, also I just want to know about the alternatives, what I am looking in a high availability setup is the ability to detect if a server is offline, and route to other servers, as well as other HA goodies.

It should be a law that you should be able to turn off auto-renew on subscription services without canceling the plan

I don't see any downsides or arbitrariness of this suggestion, I mean, there are some services I will use for one month, and I intend to use it for that month, but it happened before where I would forget to cancel it, and this has happened to other users too, by default, auto-renew should be off, I don't really know any strong ...

how to reset /boot and /boot/firmware on a raspberrypi via mounted sd card

Azrak is quite a intelligent villain, who stood a faint chance against the doomslayer [!SPOILERS]

Broadcast vs mpsc channels?

Hello, I am starting to learn and play around with tokio and multithreaded code. I am now playing around with websockets, I don't quite understand the difference between broadcast and mpsc, and when would you use either, I mean, I am assuming broadcast is intended for multiple clients, but multiple clients were able to connect ...

SpiderUnderUrBed OP ,

Weird thing is, is that. I only had one mscp in my app state, it was behind a arc mutex and code that accessed it was running asynchronously, but, somehow they all got the same messages for a bit, then like, stopped or got very partial messages except the intended recipient (they got the full message). Is this some memory issue, or race condition?

I don't have this issue switching to broadcast but I'm confused

How did they get the rope around him lol
