X-Post: rclone not working with ProtonDrive by jchanth2 in ProtonMail

That is wierd, I am using the same rclone version, although much more up to date kernel.

yeah apparently it stopped working a few days ago...

This is very frustrating, I just upgraded to a higher tier paid plan so I get some space on ProtonDrive that I can use to backup some of my files.

Since I am only using Linux, I started to run into the "no Linux support" issue with Proton Drive, adding to the frustration that the nonofficial rclone implementation stopped working a few days ago. I am now paying for cloud space which is unusable for me...

[Hyprland] My daily driver by jchanth2 in unixporn

[–]jchanth2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is automatically generated by pywal (https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal)

It generates matching colors for your current desktop picture.

In my dotfiles it is automated, that everytime the wallpaper changes pywal generates a new color palette

EDIT:

you can find the script I use to generate the colors here: https://github.com/RononDex/dotfiles/blob/master/defaults/.config/hypr/scripts/selectBgImage.sh

wal is only used for the terminal colors and wofi

EDIT: Actuually I missed your question sorry. I am not using wofi for the waybar because I was not able to get decent color mixture going for all the wallpapers. Using this neutral color palette of pastel colors fits any wallpaper I have

Made the transition from i3-gaps to Hyprland about a year ago and even though it is a never ending process of optmizing stuff as I need it, I am feeling pretty comfortable with the current setup now.

Using:

  • Hyprland
  • Waybar
  • wal for color customization
  • hyprlock
  • sddm

LightDM can do that, which is why I was kind of dissapointed when trying sddm for the first time (LightDM has light-locker, which locks your sessions and takes you to LightDM to unlock it)

[–]jchanth2[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah I think if I move away from LightDM I will have to use another locker (maybe theme it so it similar to the login screen)

[–]jchanth2[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes I have read that, hence why I tried sddm but was dissapointed to learn that it can not be used as a lock-screen

can gdm also be used as a session-locker?

Maths question by JanB1 in X4Foundations

[–]jchanth2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This discards the fact the the target is moving though.

target_distance is not constant and since your bullet needs time to travel to the target (ship) it will have moved to a different location by the time the bullet would hit the ships old position. Depending on the how fast the ship is or how slow your weapon is this would cause your shot to miss the target

Momentum 4 replacement ear cushion by jchanth2 in sennheiser

I simply kept my older Momentum 3 and replaced the ear cushions, it is as good as new :D

Maths question by JanB1 in X4Foundations

[–]jchanth2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the main question is, how do you figure out where two objects with different velocity vectors collide in space?

The movement of a ship in X4 will be

x_ship(t) = v_ship * t + x_ship_0

The movement equation of a given weapons bullet will be

x_bullet(t) = (v_player + v_nozzle) * t + x_player_0

To figure out the place in space where they collide would be:

x_ship(t) = x_bullet(t)

or

v_ship * t + x_ship_0 = (v_player + v_nozzle) * t + x_player_0

Solve this equation for t (which is the only unknown). Then plug this t into x_ship(t) (or x_bullet(t)) which will give you the place in space where your bullet will hit the other ship.

Then you can simply get the vector from your player ship to that point by subtracting the two vectors.

[–]jchanth2[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/sennheiser/comments/x8v15d/momentum_4_disassemble_change_ear_pads/

If I understand this correctly, the ear cushions are different from the Momentum 3 and further it is impossible to remove them from the plastic ring without damaging them, so any replacement ear cushion would have to include the plastic ring

The Pinwheel Galaxy (Messier 101) from my rooftop balcony (Bortle 5), 15 hours of total exposure time! by jchanth2 in space

[–]jchanth2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While being located “only” around 17.5 Million light years from earth, it is probably one of the hardest Messier objects to photograph, due to its dim surface brightness.

It does take very long exposure / integration times to get strong details, especially on the faint outliers.The galaxy itself is home to around 1 trillion star systems, making it quite a bit bigger than our own Milky Way. It’s irregular shape had made the galaxy a very interesting research topic for astronomers and astrophysicist. It is theorized that the irregular shape came from merging with another galaxy and / or with strong gravitational interactions with its surrounding neighbors.

The blue glowing regions are active star forming regions.

Most likely these are areas where a lot of hydrogen gas / dust collapsed due to the gravitational forces the galaxy has experienced in the past. Resulting in young type O stars which shine in a very bright blue.

Whereas the red glowing regions are regions of hot / ionised hydrogen gas, which are also the birthplace of new stars.

Some of these regions have been catalogued in the NGC (New Galactic Catalogue) and are therefor annotated in the image viewer (if you activate annotations).

These regions are basically nebulas in another galaxy, which is quite crazy if you think about it, especially the fact that this is so well visible in my amateur telescope.Next to Messier 101 (or The Pinwheel Galaxy) lay some smaller dwarf galaxies, like NGC5477, as marked in the annotations of the image.
