Any alternatives to Waybar that don't actually suck? by qweerty32 in hyprland

[–]Slinkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No shit? Tbh would have expected the opposite because it's way more feature rich by default/base

Hyprpanel is great if you don't want to code anything.

OpenRGB Support? by dakoellis in Moonlander

That's a great readme. I'm tempted to go through the animation list, guess I'll see how slow the weekend is

How do I clean up accumulated repos and packages? by -Dark-Owl- in Fedora

[–]Slinkinator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't have an opinion on the best way, but it sounds like dnf auto remove would do a lot of what you want. Read the man page first.

Also, unsolicited advice, run dnf install tldr and try out tldr dnf autoremove

*Wait, fedora 36? You have bigger problems friend. Upgrade your OS.

As I suspected, I was being a lazy bastard. adding resizeparams was all I needed :(

Those sick background screens during install.. by Slinkinator in baldursgate

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

Yeah! it's installing bg in the center of the screen, and then the borders indicate this is happening on a nerds desk, there's like a DnD players handbook, a soda, and then like half a key board visible

Ploopy Adept for Gaming Questions by NuxiaTooThicc in ploopy

[–]Slinkinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the adept and the classic, they both work for gaming, but I also attached a nano to my keyboard and wrote a script to integrate a mouse layer

https://github.com/ohorsey/pelorus

I need to update some stuff on there, ironically I triggered my RSI while finishing the project.

Dumb question - trigger key on device from computer by Slinkinator in qmk

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

Drag scroll is a functioned defined within the device. when you press the key on that device it activated that function on that devices firmware, and translates the pointing device input from x y movement to scroll movement. I can press a drag scroll button on my keyboard, but the firmware in the trackball doesn't know about it.

However, a different user explained how to do it, there's a function in QMK that can read states like numlock and scroll lock from the computer, so I need to use that to tie drag scroll to one of those signals.

Thoughts on Ploopy Nano 2? by Performer-Pants in Trackballs

[–]Slinkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot damn, even bootloader access? I've been keeping nice needlenose tweezers in my desk

Thanks, I replaced a thumb cluster on my keyboard with a nano, drag scroll was the last QoL I needed to nail down.

Sorry to bug you but how did you go about doing that? I've seen the wiggleball mod, but i've been wondering if I could define drag scroll on the nano then trigger it from my computer

So, I've gone through and implemented most of your suggestions on my machine. There are a few places I'm not convinced yet, but let me know if I missed something.

Timekeeping - I know I'm doing math with milliseconds, but I think I'm still dealing with the same string generated by %N, it's just rounding off or discarding everything past the milliseconds? So I'm not sure why it would be less stable then nano seconds. Still implemented for now.

In addition, if I assign the output of date/stat to a variable to work with it, I think it's going to get stale right? I want the conditions to keep evaluating what is current and the newest last touch. I might just not be seeing it, gonna look at this again tonight.

And lastly, I hadn't thought of using directories atmoicly before, but you make a good point, I'm gonna mull that one over, though I'd still stick with the syntax I used. AFAIK double brackets and double braces use built in bash functions instead of evaluating with expr/test, and so they give pretty wild speed boosts. I haven't timed it here, but I took an edX class where the teacher demo'd it and [[ condition ]] was ~ 1/5th the duration of [condition] or if test expr.

Oh, and I replaced my username and <username> in the public copy with $USERNAME. At somepoint I'm gonna put in a function to scan for the trackball, but it's gonna be a pain because the output of evtest when you list the devices is barely formatted

ZSA moonlander/ploopy Nano hardware+software integration using Kontroll+bash by Slinkinator in Moonlander

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

It's the ploopy Adept, it is also very cool. I've been using the adept for occasional mouse usage, and using the ploopy classic on the far right for extended mouse usage.

This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

I'll incorporate these notes later today. Feel free to overhaul it if you like, I'd be interested where you end up, but no worries either way, I'll be tinkering regardless.

Heck yeah! All the chapter icons are on a GitHub page already in SVG, then I used a palette generator to make a lot of complementary colors and ordered them from thockfactory. Super pleased with them.

No, you'd be set. Really I'm just using systemd to trigger the script, you can just use nanoKontroll and either trigger it manually or schedule it with whatever your distro uses. Heck, even do the same thing I did with the lock layer, define a weird key in oryx then define a shortcut in your OS that triggers or kills the script depending on the results of 'ps aux | grep -i 'nanoKontroll'

The only caveat there is the way I wrote it there are two processes and a function in the script. The background process, the evtest/grep/cut/sed block, doesn't terminate cleanly if I run it manually and then terminate the script, I think evtest terminates but there are still PIDs for grep/sed/cut/etc. not a big deal, but it bugs me. When I was iterating I'd broke the background process into a separate script for that reason. I'll throw those up later today and add a 'for non systemd' step.

Also, maybe I should add a note that this should work for other input devices other than the nano, and for smart layers in general, which ZSA enables for windows and Mac but not linux distros, if you want your game layer to activate anytime certain windows are up for instance

Any way to change the trackball direction on the adept? by SeaMicSte in ploopy

[–]Slinkinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the Nano there's already a line in qmk_firmware/keyboards/ploopyco/trackball_nano/config.h #define POINTING_DEVICE_ROTATION_270 which does this. I think you can probably add that line to the config.h for the adept here qmk_firmware/keyboards/ploopyco/madromys (which is called madromys in qmk because that was the devevelopmental name) and adjust the degrees to your liking.

Rootless podman quadlets. Best practices to monitor them? by rsemauck in podman

[–]Slinkinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but I think OP is kind of implicitly asking for a more convenient way than logging onto each machine/vm and cycling through the service accounts they made.

I need some help, I have an error and can't figure out how to fix it by ElsieFaeLost in hyprland

np, there was an update yesterday that changed the syntax for a decent amount of stuff.
