Feel free to AMA about picking a pet/reptiles in general, I have a lot of recommendations for that!

  • Objectively bazzite is much better for beginners, the mint crowd is a bit out of date, here’s why:

    bazzite is immutable, that means it updates a core system all at once with previous versions easily selectable if something breaks.

    there are more advantages to immutability, and one of those is that bazzite has significantly more up to date software, this matters for a huge number of reasons, bazzite has a much more up to date desktop with vastly improved features. Mint will also hold these features back for much longer because if something goes wrong it’s catastrophic, whereas for bazzite you’d just revert to the previous version. Not that it’s likely for anything to go wrong.

    Back in the day mint was the best choice, but now that this innovation has spread bazzite is just better, and the mint people haven’t updated their choice/preference. I honestly think there’s no objective reason to recommend mint over bazzite to beginners.






  • I have possibly the dumbest workaround to anything in history

    bindntr=CTRL,C,exec,hyprctl activewindow | rg -q "class: Wfica" && ( sleep 0.02 && hyprctl closewindow class:alacrittyclipboard ; alacritty -qq --config-file ~/.config/alacritty/alacrittyclipboard.toml --class 'alacrittyclipboard' --title 'Office 365 Desktop (SSL/TLS Secured, 256 bit)' -e sh -c 'sleep 0.03 && xclip -o | copyq copy - ; copyq clipboard | xclip -i' ) & ( sleep 0.2 && closewindow class:alacrittyclipboard )
    

    windowrulev2 = float,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = stayfocused,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = noborder,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = noanim,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = noblur,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = opacity 0,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    windowrulev2 = maxsize 1 1,class:(alacrittyclipboard)

    allow me to explain this monstrocity… the clipboard in citrix workspace is broken in a stupid way

    it doesn’t update the system clipboard unless you move focus away from the window… and out of focus windows can’t update the clipboard for security reasons… this makes it so that if I hit ctrl c when citrix is open it opens a terminal window that’s tiny, invisible and steals focus that essentially forces the clipboard to work.

    nonsense hack, but it works


  • Ah, so, I should’ve been more clear, I have annoying requirements, I want qbittorrent to run through mullvad exclusively, and i want them to be intertwined and startup with eachother automatically. I don’t want any of my other apps to be running in mullvad, is there a good way to do that? I think the socks5 proxy requires me to have it open and running, and thus everything would run through it, but maybe that wireguard method works around that? not sure, just wondering
