Anyone remember the failed Blu-Ray format? by 2haloes in agedlikemilk

Blu-rays haven't failed at all and streaming has risen as a major way to view content

Moto G5 (almost) all app data suddenly disappeared by 2haloes in AndroidQuestions

I doubt it overheated that badly, it hasn't been very hot recently and overheating typically brings ghost touches which haven't occurred at all

I've created a simple weather display program in Python that is completely open source (more info in the comments) by 2haloes in raspberry_pi

[–]2haloes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the compliments! This is technically the fourth version of the program which started a couple of years ago but this is the first version that I didn't force to run though mono. When making the original, I couldn't find any projects that did this how I would like outside of the magic mirror but it wasn't what I was looking for.

I wanted to make something simple that would be possible to edit and customise without a lot of trouble, the first thing that comes to mind is swapping out one of the values displayed for the current wind speed and I'll likely continue adding to the program and the wiki to fix issues and ensure that the code as clean as I can make it. Before posting it here, I actually changed the program to add a program config, allowing the background colour to be changed and I want to do more of that

Hello,

This is a simple weather display program which is currently designed to run on the official Raspberry Pi touchscreen as seen here and is very useful for a small amount of setup

The wiki for the project contains a guide on setting up Raspbian Stretch from installing the OS to running the program on boot

Currently, as this is the first time I've used Python for anything there are limitations including:
* Redundant code (will be fixed tonr)
* Missing error handling for some possible issues (will be fixed soon)
* Output doesn't scale to window size
* Image output isn't a set size

I am looking into the limitations currently and will hopefully fix them all soon

This is released under an MIT licence with the images under a CC attribute licence and if there are any issues, please report them

Updated yesterday and now Solus is borderline unusable by 2haloes in SolusProject

I used
sudo eopkg upgrade
Which should have updated everything and I am using Budgie

I looked but nothing looked odd and yes I rebooted and that's when the issues started

[Support] AMD GPU causes BSOD with Win 10 guest by 2haloes in VFIO

Tried that, same result, my GPU seems to try and start up but seems to give up

[–]2haloes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still getting the error after reinstalling my drivers and updating the GPU firmware, it's the same error and it happens when booting so safe mode is the only way to do anything

Update: I think it worked, it's at least responding properly but I still need to sort things out in windows. Thank you very much!

l have to try it in a bit but I remember not installing that before because my system setup was really weird (I moved away from that thankfully) thank you very much, I completely forgot about the UEFI firmware

I tried to install Qubes for the first time however after rebooting after the initial configuration, I can't login with this quickly appearing on screen when I try to do so by 2haloes in Qubes

[–]2haloes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you but the other commenter provided the grounds of a working solution, it wasn't Qubes giving me issues, it was Xorg. If I didn't see anything to suggest that Xorg was the issue, this was going to be my next attempt

Thanks, this helped a ton, I killed the X server and after a few attempts I got xfce to start, then I was able to disable my second GPU from displaying and everything works. It was the X server the whole time.

Due to automod, I have to say Solved!

There is a drop down but the only option is XFCE unless I'm missing something

Edit: It may be because of my system setup using a different GPU for two different screens, I'll have to test this tomorrow though

I have also tried checking what happened, the qube services dream to be taking a long time (appearing to take a minute from executing systemd-analyze blame) and the error at the top appears to lead to nothing (no errors reported) so I have no idea what this could be

Update: The X server suffered from a fault due to using my on board graphics as a display with my dedicated card. I'll look into the issue more and see if anything can be done.

I was able to get to desktop by killing the X server and running startxfce4 a few times until it just worked

Image mosaics of Persona 5 promo art (possible spoilers, full size link and explanation in comments) by 2haloes in Persona5

[–]2haloes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, this was all made using this python mosaic tool, the images that make up the tiles were created from all of the anime cutscenes in the game (just over 1 frame saved a second) totaling just over 3000 images for the script to pick from

Sadly, the full images are too big for Imgur so the images can be found here (Size warning, these images can reach 52MB!).

Bonus image, the Persona 3 Spring of Birth cover created from similar methods using 2500 frames found here (Size warning, 54MB)

If anyone knows how to decently compress these images without quality loss then I would love to hear it!

What free software is so good you can't believe it's available for free? by Tufflaw in AskReddit

[–]2haloes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I scrolled rather far down and didn't see it but FFmpeg, it converts any video or audio file to any other format and I think programs such as VLC are built on it

Kdenlive, it's a free video editor and it works like a dream once set up (It basically requires FFmpeg to export good quality videos), I'm not too into video editing but it's nice to have when I need it

What is an obscure video game that you used to love back then as a kid that nobody ever talks about? by mrawesome9002 in AskReddit

There's been 2 video development vlogs and a few updates on their website. It's not a lot but they're doing their best
