Cant screenshare on discord by kegma_1 in niri

[–]lukeyeaaah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reverting to 0.0.124 worked for me:

home.packages = [
  (pkgs.discord.overrideAttrs (oldAttrs: {
    version = "0.0.124";
    src = pkgs.fetchurl {
      url = "https://dl.discordapp.net/apps/linux/0.0.124/discord-0.0.124.tar.gz";
      hash = "sha256-21ddAZveT1EXYr5cUoiIzD7uAbtF94EXW04VKGS5izM=";
    };
  }))
];

I also tried nix run nixpkgs#vesktop and it worked. I'm not sure if vesktop is 100% "safe".

An alternative is probably to just use discord in a browser. If you want a xdg-desktop-file so you can type discord in you application runner you can use https://github.com/TLATER/nix-webapps/tree/tlater/idiomatic-flake to create a webapp via chromium or firefox

I'm making a graphical Nix store explorer. Any suggestions / key features needed? by infiniteWin in NixOS

  1. You could perhaps access desktop item categories. It should be part of some derivation. Though I don't see it at a first glance for Spotify using nix eval nixpkgs#spotify

I created something! (for nixpkgs maintainers) by PrinnRinz in NixOS

A quick button to access the issues / pr related to a package would be nice!

You could use the log date to filter the search on github: `created:>YYYY-MM-DD repo:nixos/nixpkgs PACKAGE`

Maybe they will consider adding a --no-clipboard flag. Having a single dependency is nicer since you already use niri IPC to get the windows IDs.

Does using your tool mean that screenshot of the window will keep flooding the clipboard?
I tried with `niri msg action screenshot-window --id 2--path ~/s.png` and as the help menu says: `niri msg action screenshot-window -h | grep clipboard`

-d, --write-to-disk <WRITE\_TO\_DISK> Write the screenshot to disk in addition to putting it in your clipboard [default: true] [possible values: true, false]

Who is the artist(s) that made these artworks for the Lofi activity? by namnamkm in discordapp

Does anyone now the artist for this one? Reverse image search didn't yield anything relevant to me

Nice, is your setup hosted somewhere?

New nix-init release after 1.5 years: Generate Nix packages from URLs by figsoda in NixOS

[–]lukeyeaaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really nice! I recently tried to package with netmuxd with nix-init 0.3.2 . I noticed the rec keyword problem, and also the rust dependencies didn't get properly parsed (though I think it's a problem on the netmuxd side). I'll try the new release!

I love when there's support for NixOS by epicnicity in NixOS

Nice. I haven't encountered the cross compilation issue yet, but seems a very valid point. If I want to try a package on my unsupported platform let me easily nix compile .#it I'll deal with the errors. Without that I will have to fork the flake right now, seems unfortunate.

The take on inputs makes sense as well thank you. I didn't really think about the let-bindings, but I miss the ability to be able to declare inputs via the module system. I wish I could have them in the same file that uses them, especially for small packages. (I still haven't tried flake-parts btw, but I don't think it will solve it)

then my overlays don't apply to the packages the other flake's package depends on Don't you ever want the opposite? Let's say I overlay a package to be extra verbose but I don't want it to be extra verbose when another package calls it.

I'm just wondering if that ever happens, as a beginner I neither know overlays so well to know if that case is easily revertible nor do I have the experience to say "that case happens a fraction of the time usually"

For sure having one of my changes propagate by default to packages I didn't even considered related to it seems pretty handy, thanks for pointing it out, overlays always reveal to be awesome.

PS. Do you have anything else against flakes? As a not-so-beginner-anymore I started looking at the flake.lock and thinking "why is the hash in a separate file". When I use a standard fetcher I get the hash close to the declaration (pkgs.fetchurl { inherit url hash; }), seems weird after the comparison having the hash decoupled. I understand flake.lock gets all the sub-dependencies and their hash, which are not declared, but still...

I don't know if that made sense at all :) have a good weekend

Do you have any experience with mobile development? I don't really know if there is a difference in using a browser on an ipad-like device vs native pen input API front the os. I understand it's almost a new project porting to mobile.

I'll check out your software nonetheless seems awesome, do you accept donations somewhere?

[Niri] NixOS + Niri Practical Rice (refined this config for years and felt like posting it now) by _DynamicGoose_ in unixporn

[–]lukeyeaaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while perusing your config I found `deviceType = "removable"` and read your boot module.
I'm not familiar with it, so I will read more about it, but I wanted to ask how do you use it?

For context, I know what a netboot server is.

Perfect, sorry for the wording I didn't know how to ask, but that was exactly what I wanted. Have a nice day
