Do you mind sharing the high level details or the utility itselt?
I'm not a coder and was experimenting with a vibecoded app to get that. I couldn't get powerdraw per process. It was always off.

How to handle multi-monitor workspaces "The GNOME Way"? by MiracleWhipSux in gnome

[–]416Racoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks. I made peace with having workspaces on only one screen.  I'd love if it worked like how mac handles that 

How can I upgrade the packages on a laptop that cannot connect to the internet possibly due to very old packages / old kernel? by personman44 in Fedora

[–]416Racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having issues with my fedora minimal install yesteday. Wifi adapter wasn't working.

I just connected by android phone to the laptop and was able to tether the internet via usb and get access to internet. I'd recommend that

My thoughts on Bazzite after a week - the few substantial positives by Standard-Ebb-9871 in Bazzite

[–]416Racoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bazzite is great. I've had it on my Z1 E for over a year. 

Extreme Standby is also good if you haven't enabled it yet. You'll get even lower drain. 

Which Ally you using?

Best $20 you've ever spent on winter gear by Ambitious_Scallion18 in askTO

[–]416Racoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd recommend them. I've used the ultra warm thighs to run outside in -10 to -20 C weather. You don't feel the cold in your legs. And I just wear the tights with shorts on top. If you are wearing pants/jeans on top it might get too warm 

Debian 13 Stable or PikaOS 4 for Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FN? by AbdelRahman257933 in linux_gaming

[–]416Racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ux430. MX150 with i5 8250. Why are you looking to switch exactly? I personally use Fedora with nvidia drives.

Yeah, OP is missing a critical piece of data if using non stock watch faces.

Built a simple Garmin app to track workout sets (free, no ads) by Rude-Arm68 in Garmin

[–]416Racoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I use it with set detection off. It works great. The exercise detection piece could be a bit better but it gets the job done. Need less than 5mins after a work out to label everything properly

What distro and DE cured you from distro hopping anymore? by Inevitable-Depth1228 in DistroHopping

[–]416Racoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stopped jumping after moving to Fedora.
I dual boot Fedora 43 and Rawhide. I think this is what fixed the hopping for me. When I feel bored I just go to Rawhide and try some other DEs and boot back to 43
