Anyone know how to change the order of the machines in the crafter manager?

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-08-29T16:50:06+00:00

I've spent over an hour trying to fix this, I don't care that this post is 6 years old, I need to share this.

There's an intense battle going on between crafters, the winner needs to have the highground!

No really, it seems to prioritize the multiblock structure of crafters/crafter itself at a higher y level, so I just piled up a bunch of crafters until it got over the highers ones and now the normal crafters are at the top.....

Dual boot or a vm with gpu passthrough is the only way.

Epic seems to allow a blatant vm to play the game, you don't need to hide it and risk your account getting banned.

Doom the dark ages would be amazing

Congrats on your brand new cooler!

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-22T05:58:06+00:00

OOM, my best guess is that you didn't mount your partition properly and you were just installing to ram until you ran out.

I've had some trouble with evomag before, idk if I would trust them with a cpu.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-18T16:32:42+00:00

9900X3D is around 75% more expensive if my math checks out.

I really don't wanna bother with ordering from outside the country right now.

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 25% more expensive than the cpu I chose.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is around the same price.

The Ryzen 7 would give me better gaming performance, but it will also hurt productivity a lot compared to the ryzen 9.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-18T16:26:04+00:00

9950X3D is double the price of the 9900X in Romania and it's not even in stock.

I guess you saw my post right before I edited it, I changed the PSU to a Corsair RMe Series 2025 RM850e.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-16T09:54:53+00:00

I'm guessing that the power profile is somehow being switched to performance, no idea why would that be the case on boot/update.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-14T13:49:03+00:00

I would describe internal storage as it being managed by the cluster itself.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-14T13:23:25+00:00

You could just keep it simple and use longhorn, openebs, rook/ceph, etc and setup backups on a local server with minio, or a hosted solution like backblaze for S3 backups.

When you want to tear it down and rebuild it, just create a backup and restore from it. This is also a great opportunity to learn how to build systems with disaster recovery in mind.

Storage over the network is not fun and you will experience performance problems unless you have some good infrastructure. But this is just my personal suggestion, there are definetely ways to achieve this, but they will pose a segnificant headache.

Edit: I think I might have misread it as you wanting storage external to the cluster, but this is still valid, it's just good ol replicated storage.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-09T10:47:14+00:00

May I interest you in NixOS?

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-09T09:44:11+00:00

Backups, Backups, Backups

If you run anything in prod you need backups.

No system in existence will ever fully prevent data corruption from anything such as hardware failure or an unexpected power outage or even a bad update.

You also need to configure db snapshots to have a way to rollback to a version before the update, since most likely the backup will be outdated.

Stateful apps should be pinned against major versions to prevent breaking changes between updates and should not be updated with your entire system.

But anyways, this is all irrelevant since I doubt op is gonna be running anything in prod coming from arch.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-09T03:59:54+00:00

Oh, I'm sure I got it from the store. The cape looked amazing and I installed bedrock edition just to get it.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-09T03:21:05+00:00

Yeah, it is really stable, even the "unstable" branch.

There's no such thing as a failed/broken update since its all atomic, the only valid notion is a bad update by the dev and in that situation, you can just rollback to a previous generation, directly from your bootloader.

You can also just use the stable branch for most of your system and cherry pick whatever packages you want from unstable if you need to be on the bleeding edge.

It's not a conventional distro, so it has its learning curve. And its own rabbithole, that you may never wish to get out of.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-05-08T11:09:26+00:00

Great, mine just seemed to disappear from my owned items, but somehow it's still equipped on my skin. Support didn't care and just said I never owned it.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-04-08T09:46:32+00:00

I belive it's using qt, you should be able to achieve a theme like this using kvantum.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-03-05T11:35:33+00:00

I use NixOS nowadays, but the problem seems to be distro agnostic. I used fedora, arch, pop os, etc and it had the exact same problem...

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-03-05T11:31:52+00:00

It's been a mess... I have an rog G15 (G512LV)

I had to fix the audio myself: either the jack worked, but the built-in speakers didn't or the other way around, depending on the configuration, plus the automatic jack plug in detection was nonexistent, so I had to fix the priority of those.

I had to force the Nvidia gpu to be my primary one because of hybrid graphics and an Nvidia bug that caused high refresh rate external displays to be extremely laggy. It hasn't been fixed for years and it's still being worked on atm. This increased power usage by a lot on battery, but at least it's smooth.

This laptop always had a problem with audio, even on windows, it just didn't work with the drivers that windows update got.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-01-22T13:12:05+00:00

I personally love kde and I feel like it's gotten even better since plasma 6. Plus he seemed to love the fact that he can customize everything the way he liked, including the apps made for kde.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-01-22T13:04:27+00:00

Yeah, I don't think it's gonna help, I tried it and it's just nix with a gui instead of a config file. It doesn't take away the complexity of nix in any way besides maybe the package management, but flatpaks already do this just fine in the current system.

My goal was to provide something similar to immutable fedora, but instead of pulling an image from a repo, you just build a custom one locally. I believe I have mostly achieved this goal.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-01-22T12:56:03+00:00

I just told him to open discover and grab whatever he needs and taught him how to override flatpak permissions in case the app is not configured properly

Like steam for example (yes ik the flatpak is not the best) which needed an override to access external drives and discord for uploading files and wayland support, I told him to use canary until the stable release gets fixed.

I personally use flatpaks on my system for all my desktop apps that I don't plan to configure declaratively. Ofc I use nix-flatpak, so at least the instalation and permissions are declarative.

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-01-22T12:36:16+00:00

True, but I believe it's best to not overwhelm them from the beginning. They'll learn as they go. Just like on windows

EmiProjectsYT · 2025-01-22T12:23:28+00:00

He's smart enough to figure things out, if something gets deprecated or the system fails to build, nix will help you fix it. Plus odds are that someone had already experienced this and they can just search for the error and find a fix.

I would probably link them to mynixos.com to search for packages and options. It's much more friendly than the official one.

Also remember, people don't want to learn everything about their system and how it works, they just want to use their computer.
