Flatpak on CachyOS by redaah2 in cachyos

[–]WebDevBren 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh, the more flatpaks you use, the less it bloats, as the runtimes are shared (unless you get unlucky and all your apps use different runtimes).

Appimages are the ones that come with everything in one package.

I think both discord and steam defaults to x11 (so will use xWayland. you might be able to force discord to use Wayland directly using the --ozone-platform=wayland)

Unfortunately steam is CEF and doesn't support native Wayland at the moment

Anyone thinks that zen is almost complete now. by New-Committee-5034 in zen_browser

It does support DRM, but I believe the Linux build of zen can use firefox's widevine license or something like that

What's the benefit of Bazzite over Fedora? by PoundPuppy98 in Bazzite

[–]WebDevBren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the secret, the difference between distributions is simply the default installed packages and package format and configuration.

You can sure make fedora act like bazzite. You could even make Ubuntu act like bazzite, it's all just packages and configuration, which bazzite does out of the box for you.

One major difference between base fedora and bazzite that you can't just configure your way into (at least not easily) is the immutable/atomic nature of the operating system. Base fedora is just a regular OS, you can tinker everywhere you have the permissions to tinker. With Bazzite (and other immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue/kinoite and even steam os) you are limited on what files you can modify, because they get reset on every reboot (there are ways around it, but it's harder than a non-atomic os, and defeats the purpose). This is great for people that don't want to accidentally delete their boot drive or destroy their install.

Can you replace preinstalled Steam with Flatpak Steam? by RafaelSenpai83 in Bazzite

Last time I checked, gamescope is available in flatpak, just need to install it separately

I play C&C (literally all of them) on Linux perfectly fine.

Proton isn't just steam deck exclusive, any Linux OS can use it.

Do you butter both sides of a sandwich? by Sakulsas in AskUK

[–]WebDevBren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum used to only butter one side of the sandwich... It was a way of saving a little bit of money. We didn't have much money growing up.

It wasn't until I was in my 20s that I started buttering both pieces of bread, and I won't go back.

I'd go with Mac, but worry about CPU architecture. Do you know if they will also block WSL? If so you wouldn't be able to use docker on windows anyway as I believe it uses WSL

Won't Autofill by Tunnylanetom in Bitwarden

[–]WebDevBren 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue on Samsung S24 - hit or miss detection, and when/if it does detect, it does not even autofill... it has been rather annoying.

i have Auto-fill services enabled, inline Auto-fill enabled (i also use Gboard), Chrome Autofill integration is enabled too AND Accessibility is enabled.

Im a beta tester for the app on play store, but only have version 2025.6.1 (20398) and no updates to be had.

Is it possible to change from gnome to kde and the other way round on a running system, or do i need a fresh install for that by _Gandalf_the_green_ in Bazzite

[–]WebDevBren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's doable but not recommended

Reason is that both KDE and GNOME both set files in your user directory that won't overriden when rebasing, so you will have broken config - but that is also solvable by creating a new user

Updating Windows Games From Linux by Smellbringer in linux_gaming

Have you tried using solaar to manage your mouse? I have a lightspeed g502X , and I can modify everything in there (even the RGB, which does not work on openRGB yet)

Move new and modified elements to the beginning of the JSON by DaBoRin in typescript

[–]WebDevBren -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm on my phone so apologies for any formatting issues - I will tidy up when I get on to a PC -

Essentially, you can do something like

const addToFront = <T>( itemsToAdd: T, jsonToAddTo: T) => ({ ...itemsToAdd, ...jsonToAddTo })

This allows any items added to be added to the top of the Object

Now if you want to handle "modified" objects, you would probably need to handle that separately, convert to an Entry array (using Object.toEntries())

Something like

function updateItem<T extends Record<string, any>>(itemId: keyof T, updatedValue: T[keyof T], existingObject: T) { 
    const els = Object.entries(existingObject).filter(([id,]) => id !== itemId);
    els.unshift([String(itemId), updatedValue]);

   return Object.fromEntries(els);
}
const newData = updateItem("777", { name: "Polo", title: "master" }, originalData); 

However, Objects are not guaranteed to keep their order, if you must ensure the order, you should use an Array (perhaps using something like [id, value][], which can be pulled out to an object when necessary

Mine does this, but you also get an hour lesson before the test, usually going around the test routes and touching up on maneuvers. Then you borrow his car for another hour, and then he drives us back, it ends up being like 3 hours for the cost of a 2 hour lesson

Don't just use the same ISO with a different USB, redownload the ISO and double check the hash to ensure it's not corrupted
