You can use your token with the REST api. And use that to do whatever you want.

you can also use your token for git clone like so:

$ git clone https:/git:put_your_token_here@github.com/myown/repo

That would be block storage like glusterfs or ceph, or object storage like minio or rook.

You could also use ZFS to provide PVCs for your Pods, with openebs.

If the mini-servers don’t have hardware redundancy, I’d stick to Replicated Volumes only…

If you go the openebs+ZFS route, you can make a kubernetes service (DaemonSet because it should run on every node) that makes and sends/exposes ZFS snapshots.

Here’s an article that does this: https://iridakos.com/programming/2018/03/01/bash-programmable-completion-tutorial

I have done this for one of my own tools ta, which is a function that switches to a tmux session, or creates it if it doesn’t exist:

# switch to existing tmux session, or create it.
# overrides workdir if session name is "Work"
function ta() {
        case "$1" in
                Work) workdir="${HOME}/Work/" ;;
                *) workdir="${HOME}" ;;
        esac
        if tmux has-session -t "$@" &>/dev/null; then
                tmux switch-client -t "$@"
        else
                tmux new-session -A -D -d -c "${workdir}" -s "$@"
                tmux switch-client -t "$@"
        fi
}

# complete tmux sessions
# exclude current session from completion
function _ta_completion() {
        command="${1}"
        completing="${2}"
        previous="${3}"
        [[ "${command}" != 'ta' ]] && return
        current_session="$(tmux display-message -p '#S')"
        IFS=$'\a' COMPREPLY=( $(tmux list-sessions -F '#{session_name}' | grep -i "^${completing}" | grep -v "^${current_session}$"| tr '\n' '\a' ) )
}
# enable completion for ta function
complete -F _ta_completion ta

Usage

$ tmux (starts session "0" by default)
$ ta Personal # create session "Personal" because it doesn't exist
$ ta Work # create session "Work" because it doesn't exist
$ ta <tab> 
0 Personal
$ ta P<tab> -> $ta Personal
$ ta <tab>
0 Work

Artists will probably have their own setup, software and workflow that they are comfortable with. I’d recommend letting them use their own workflow, and just discussing the interface, so to speak: what file format(s) to use and such. I think GLTF is used for assets, but I’m definitely not an expert.

As for other devs, most required tooling (e.g. Unity or Pycharm or whatever) are one-time installs that you can list somewhere. And language libraries/dependencies are a solved problem (e.g. pipenv, cargo, yarn).

But if you really want to set this up, nix (or lix) is probably your best bet for a total devenv that is exactly reproducible, assuming that works for WSL (or no one uses windows).

Otherwise docker/podman or devenv will probably be doable as well.

Maybe you can use the spicy tape to prevent your pets from eating the cables (assuming that works on them)?

Orher than that, maybe you can setup some metrics (and alerting?) to keep an eye on the diskspace?

Congratulations!

Tip: don’t use /dev/nvme0n1 directly, but use device aliases in /dev/disk/. I prefer /dev/disk/by-id/ but maybe another works better in your case.

# find all aliases for nvme drives (no partitions)
find /dev/disk/ -type l -ilname '*nvme?n?' -printf '%l %p\n' | sed 's!^../../!!' | sort

Try starting vim without config, I think that’s

vim -u NONE

Does it still occur then?

If not, it’s a config issue in /etc/vimrc and/or ~/.vimrc (or maybe ~/.config/vim/vimrc or something?)

If it does, it has to be something else.

Pretty much, yeah.

I’d recommend using two physical drives (SSD/HDD) instead of two partitions if you can, because windows update sometimes messes with the bootloader. But most laptops only have one drive so that’s not always possible.

Do keep in mind that formatting a drive (e.g. to split it in partitions) will erase all the data, so make sure you have backups!

In the last few years, Valve (company behind the popular Steam PC games store) has made huuuge efforts in making most games work well on Linux, because the Steam Deck console that they sell runs on Linux, and the compatibility layer they made is called Proton.

To check what games work well on Linux you should look in the ProtonDB.

If there are games that only work on Windows, you could do dual booting.

It was new to me too, but a (code) forge is essentially a VCS server with stuff like a wiki and issue tracking. So think GitLab, GoGS/Gitea/Forgejo, BitBucket and all the others.

How are they connected?

If it’s through bluetooth, that should be perfectly fine.

Check the debian wiki for instructions.

Yes, a quick web search later I haven’t found a readymade solution.

Setting the volume for specific outputs is not very hard, so maybe a middleground solution is to have two shortcuts. One for “game mode” and one for “music mode” or whatever.

The details depend a bit on the audiostack of your distro, but they all have a cli program with which you can change inputs/outputs and volume; e.g. pactl for pulseaudio and wpctl for wireplumber.

You’ll need a mechanism to find your triggers (I create a firefox tab with youtube/spotify, I have a music player active) and then you can act on it.

Detecting voice in an audiostream is probably technically possible, but that sounds pretty hard to setup.

Why is that?

I know that feeling all too wel…

Sorry I can’t help you with the solution you want, I don’t use flatpak.

It’s not really what you’re asking, but couldn’t you just visit the about:profiles page?

It’s not as nice as the dedicated profile manager, but it’s just as functional.

You could even set it as your default page, or add it to the bookmark bar.

IIRC, within RHEL it goes fedora (next major) -> centos stream (next minor) -> RHEL (current major.minor).

With Debian and its derivatives (e.g Ubuntu) this means that Debian-unstable corresponds to fedora, Debian-testing corresponds to CentOS stream and Debian-stable corresponds to RHEL. (Roughly of course).

Ubuntu is based off of some flavor of Debian and is therefore downstream of it: Debian (unstable I think) -> Ubuntu -> Ubuntu LTS.

But as far as which version has the newest packages then sure, your list is correct.

people’s configs on github?

Yep, it’s definitely better to have as a default
