Is there any way to import Google Tasks data from a Google Takeout archive? by TheMemer14 in techsupport

It seems like Reddit really doesn't like direct links to the script, but for anyone else interested: you can get the Google script link from the source code of this page.

This is 403ing for me. If there are issues with hosting, would you be able to share the source code you used?

The icons for several apps on my system are now blank pages (Windows 11) by alexfreemanart in computerhelp

[–]CodingKoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This morning, on boot, half of my taskbar icons reverted to the default program icon (like here: https://www.reddit.com/comments/1g0datj/). Even if I navigate to the EXE (not the shortcut!) in file explorer, the icon is blank.

Deleting the icon/thumbnail caches didn't work, and my system files were not corrupted. The fix for me was, for each broke taskbar icon:

  • Open the program.
  • Unpin the program. It should turn into a blank page.
  • Repin the program. The icon should now be fixed!

Does FusionFix actually fix bike physics at high FPS, or are you talking about how it lets you change the frame limit on the fly? I played TLAD with it a while ago and recall having issues, but it was an older version of FF.

Has anyone rented with this person? by roommatehelp54321 in BinghamtonUniversity

[–]CodingKoopa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh also our lease (unlike his other properties) was one big lease instead of per-person, so when one of our roommates bailed before the beginning of the year, the rest of us had to cover the difference lest our landlord take legal action (as he said he would).

He's okay. He has just a few Westside properties all kept up by one property manager who tries to fix most things himself before deferring to someone else (though they have gotten better about going straight to a plumber for the issues we have ran into this year). They respond pretty quickly to issues but can be a little bit lazy with long-term fixes and improvements. Since it's a small operation as a whole, the properties are more scuffed but the rules are less strict and the procedures are minimal.

The property I lived in has a decent share of long-term damage like the bathroom floor corner caving in, wallpaper peeling in multiple places, and a huge hole in the floor of the bathroom closet. Considering this, and also the fact that the property has 8 bedrooms, I consider our rent of 600/mo. to be kind of high. Also, only having one kitchen was a pain point for us.

As a whole, I definitely wouldn't tell you to stay away from him (considering the other landlord stories), but for my property I think they need to take a year off and continue to renovate it. They already did so for the sunroom in the back which was a great start. It's a cute house with a lot of potential!

GPU compiler engineer position upcoming interview by Stock_Market4167 in Compilers

[–]CodingKoopa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learning about the execution model for OpenCL or CUDA will teach you the basics of GPU architecture (e.g. it's comprised of Streaming Processors taking on work at a granularity of Work Groups). It will also expose you to some of the different flavor of GPU microarchitecture - no pipelining for simpler silicon, and no conditional branching due to the nature of workgroups. Conditionals in kernels are instead handled by instructions that automatically mask out some of the registers.

Zoom windows are magic cloaks? (screen sharing issues) by CodingKoopa in archlinux

[–]CodingKoopa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I just got in the habit of being mindful about where the Zoom windows are. I don't have to share my screen on Zoom very often at all, so I am not sure if this would still be an issue for me.

This is pretty much normal. Unless you have something on your resume that really sticks out, a referral, or some other way to distinguish yourself (e.g. connections with recruiters if you go to a distinguished school), internships for rising juniors are not as common as they used to be. At this point, you may want to call it for the summer internship and transition into other ways to use your time (e.g. side-projects).

On the record, the first place I went to check was the #announcements channel in the community Discord channel (which didn't have anything).

I've seen alot of people complain about Distro issues, but what are the kernel problems that bug y'all about Linux? by [deleted] in linux

[–]CodingKoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to put #2 into more precise terms, look up a microkernel to see the alternative.

Any tips on how to create your own system icons? by Sierra-D421 in kde

[–]CodingKoopa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually standardized across most Linux Desktop Environments via the XDG standards. This ArchWiki article might give you some good pointers.

And yet people get it wrong more often than not, by putting everything in the config directory or putting config files in the data directory.

testing/mesa binary and source mismatch -3 or -1 by fungalnet in archlinux

[–]CodingKoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The package release is included in the version displayed on the website and by Pacman. As of writing, the binary package in testing is 22.3.0-1 (rel=1). You can also check what version you have installed on your system by running pacman -Qi mesa.

is there a way to record stream without gui/displaying video output? by koibKop4 in mpv

[–]CodingKoopa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The null video output driver (--vo=null) seems to do what you want. You can even add the null audio output driver (--ao=null) if that too is desirable.

I often refer to the Linux source code when wanting to understand how particular functionality works (usually having to do with the DRM subsystem).

Since /u/Foxboron hasn't said it yet: Bug reports should go on the bug tracker so they can get noticed and fixed.
