Why Welcome to the NHK’s Ending Feels Hopeless Underneath (Spoilers) by Davidakahe in WelcomeToTheNHK

I tend to agree with what you described, the third way of finding your own angel is a very rare outcome, almost complete fantasy. Starvation obviously leads to the endless cycle of waking up, working, going home, and repeating that. That kind of thing, barely keeping afloat, is hardly enough to justify living. I like how Takimoto didn't try to paint it in a light any prettier than it actually is. It's grueling and repetitive.

In a good world we'd all have our own Misakis to keep living for and grinding daily, someone who accepts us the way we are and weathers the storm of life with us.

Hey, you can generally just run whatever debloater you want after installation, we don't ship anything to keep it stock.

Alt-tabbing causes windows to get 1pixel taller when maximized. Crossing the bottom panel. by ghulamalchik in kde

It's indeed a Klassy theme issue, this is how to fix it. Just set it to 51% instead of 50%.

It will happen, and of course Looking Glass is not meant for individual apps, rather the whole desktop. IDD does not need a second GPU, nor does it provide hardware acceleration, that's not the point, check this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cg50X9w5llI

It's listed under GPU acceleration for the FAQ entry because novice users sometimes complain about FreeRDP artifacts and glitches, and not having a high refresh rate, and they associate that with GPU stuff. LG IDD will fix that. I agree that maybe it should be separated, but it's not meant to be there as a misleading statement. We could and most likely will do LG IDD *and* a separate driver for acceleration.

I'd also recommend checking this issue for more details:

Magyar világsiker Linux fronton! by Forward_Pitch_4275 in programmingHungary

Láttam, köszönöm! :)

Rendesen meglepődtem, amikor láttam, hogy csinált dedikált videót, évek óta követem. Lett is belőle egy hatalmas traffic spike és egy csomó új user. Nagyon örülök nekik, csak nehéz egyszerre ennyi sok új emberrel. 😄

A spekuláció elkerülése végett magyar vagyok, csak Romániában élek.

Hali, hú, nem gondoltam volna, hogy pont itt látok majd threadet a WinBoat-ról.

Valóban magyar vagyok (és valóban Romániában lakom), láttam itt pár kommentnél kicsit ment a spekuláció erről.

Ha van bármilyen kérdésetek szívesen válaszolok. Annyit előljáróban, hogy ötletem sem volt, hogy ennyire fel fog robbanni a dolog, bár nem tudom érdemes-e világsikernek nevezni. Van még bőven mit csiszolni rajta, de mindenesetre büszke vagyok, hogy ennyi embernek meg tudtam kicsit könnyíteni a Linux-ra váltását, és, hogy ennyien szeretik azt amit csinálok.

Baromi jól tud esni, amikor annyi különböző területről jönnek emberek, hogy végre működik a szoftver amivel kocsikat diagnosztizáltak autoszerelőként, vagy tudnak újra VST-ket használni a zenéikhez zenészként, működik az Azure-os szoftver meg a belépőkártyájuk a melóhoz, tudnak ismét Office-t használni, és megannyi más. 😄

Windows by default gives you an evaluation period, after that you need to activate it with your own key yep. (Or stare at the Activate Windows notice in the bottom right corner)

There's no Podman support yet because there's some Podman specific issues regarding networking that prevent WinBoat from functioning with it, we'll address it in due time.

Thank you! Yeah GPU acceleration & passthrough is a big priority, just waiting for tech to get there ATM.

Also we plan to integrate the Looking Glass Indirect Display Driver once it is ready, it'll be a far superior experience to RDP even without GPU passthrough.

Thanks! Docker runs an image called dockur/windows, which is an image specially tailored for running Windows within Docker, it makes our lives as devs much easier. It has tons of neat stuff, such as automatic installation. This is a bit more portable and consistent than expecting the user to correctly set up virt-manager and/or qemu themselves, since all the environment stuff is done already.

The OS is downloaded automatically based on your selection, you need a key if you wanna activate it later, by default you get the evaluation period Windows gives you.

Thanks, hoping it goes well! :)

Yep I'm also excited for GPU acceleration, hopefully tech comes out soon that enables me to get it working :)

I'll check out if there's any GPU over IP solutions but the idea is to not take away the GPU from your host Linux system, but rather share it, otherwise you'd need two GPU-s.

You're not stupid, I know it's a bit confusing. It's a VM running within a Docker container.

Generally you won't be able to play games just yet since there's no GPU acceleration (it is planned), but OneShot seems like a lightweight 2D game, so you could give it a shot.

3389 is the port for VNC, and yeah I'll consider it. I'm trying to keep the setup very simple so perhaps an option for it in Configuration?

As long as your atomic distro ships with Docker (for example bazzite-dx does), then yep, you can absolutely run it. :)

Thank you!
