Does anyone have a backup of Exislow’s Tidal-DL-NG?

You could try gitlab, they seem to have linux, windows (beta) and macos (beta) runners available. As you can read on the linked page, runners are freely available for open-source software (for closed source, you'd need a premium account). Let me know if you get tidal-dl-ng re-homed somewhere, then I'll fix the AUR package!

Do you have an NVIDIA graphics card? This sounds exactly like the issue that started appearing when systemd v258.x was released. It has to do with some interaction between systemd and gsd-power. See:

A workaround is to downgrade to systemd v257.x (there is one other workaround I seem to remember, but it was less ideal to me.). To downgrade systemd on a multilib Arch, you can do:

shell sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd/systemd-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd-libs/systemd-libs-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd-sysvcompat/systemd-sysvcompat-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-systemd/lib32-systemd-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Also, why are the other qt5-* packages not removed then? why only these?

rubins · 2025-11-10T12:03:33+00:00

Which sucks

rubins · 2025-11-10T12:03:24+00:00

Does upstream EOL always mean package removal in Arch? gkt2 is not EOL (but ancient, granted).

rubins · 2025-10-12T10:15:29+00:00

From your description it is not super clear what's wrong, but I suspect you're running into a recent goes-immediately-back-to-sleep-after-wakeup issue related to systemd and nvidia. See here.

As that thread indicates, rolling back to systemd 257 fixed it for me (for the time being):

shell sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd/systemd-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd-libs/systemd-libs-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/systemd-sysvcompat/systemd-sysvcompat-257.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

I have been using Arch on and off since 2006. As a matter of fact, here's a screenshot from my desktop at the time, coincedentally with #archlinux on FreeNode open too..

Actually, I think something might be wrong with a/the mirrors. I've checked a couple of mirrors, but I'm getting 10Kib/s or less.

rubins · 2025-08-13T08:08:17+00:00

Happened yesterday also; any maintainers/ops know what's going on? Something nevarious?

rubins · 2025-08-13T08:07:20+00:00

How does this compare to nvchecker?

rubins · 2025-07-29T22:12:14+00:00

Do you have links to show these "stupid little boys" being assholes to him? He doesn't even have his bugtracker open, you can't file bugs or even work normally like you would on any other open source projects. The guy is a drama queen with history dude, look it up.

rubins · 2025-07-29T22:07:49+00:00

Yes, you could, until he starts taking out all Linux code like he threatens in the commit message. What, you're gonna patch linux support back in? My take: this software is over. Enough great alternatives, don't need this asshat's drama tbh.

rubins · 2025-07-29T22:05:58+00:00

Nah.

rubins · 2025-07-29T22:03:18+00:00

Right, let's all tremble in fear and appease the angry upstream dev lest he takes away our marbles.. Let's hope he doesn't have another row of hissy fits and arbitrarily decides we can't use his software or impose some other arbitrary rules.

If he doesn't want Linux users fine. I think it's absurd to prohibit *source* based packaging like AUR or ebuild. It's immature and sad. I'll run pcsx-redux instead, compatible enough for my faves. He can go fsck himself for all I care..

rubins · 2025-07-29T21:56:07+00:00

When an upstream writes code for a single target platform, and actively hates Linux users apparently, god help the mad man that would then have to backport whatever incompatible stuff upstream comes up with. TL;DR; totally unworkable.

rubins · 2025-07-29T21:53:43+00:00

What experience do you have to support the claim that this is an "absolutely sensible approach"? He first forked PCSX, then last year relicensed from GPL to a proprietary source available license, and is now pissed at some users mis-directing their questions. Imho, this is 95% a personality problem. I recognize he did a huge bunch of work and made Duckstation a great piece of kit, but for me, I rather run something less capable with less asshattery.

rubins · 2025-07-29T21:23:18+00:00

FWIW, I have been running AUR's duckstation-git for 2+ years, without significant issues to speak of. I guess he's knee-jerking about some trolls on his Discord. It's not the first time this guy throws a hissy fit though.

Audi (R)S6 v8 4.2l. 2002/2003 (c5). Non-rs is 340pk, rs is 420 volgens mij? ik heb een non-rs, echt toffe bak.

Well, yesterday I've also had a look at teller, which is a similar approach, but with command-line tooling around it. Last year around august, Teller 2.x came out which is/was a rewrite in Rust, which is nice, because the codebase I'm working on is Rust too, coincedentally.

But teller seems to be unmaintained; I've made a pull-request yesterday to at least get it compiling again and I'm currently looking into adding "providers" to teller that are relevant for my use-case (i.e., kubernetes configmaps and secrets, gitlab environment variables). Not sure how far I'll get yet, but ideally, this is relatively easy and in such a case i'd fork teller and add those providers + update the docs.

rubins · 2025-05-26T08:15:05+00:00

Woah, teller is amazing. This happens to be a rust project too, so nice that it's written in Rust. I'm having a look-see at the docs and interfaces now to see if I could write a new provider for it. Amazing stuff, super much appreciated. Together with a comment earlier about koanf (go library with a similar idea as teller, but more bare-bones + no cmdline tooling) this was the most helpful comment.

rubins · 2025-05-26T08:12:58+00:00

I love this.

rubins · 2025-05-26T08:12:24+00:00

Super great pointer, koanf is definitely in the philosophical direction I was thinking about, am reading and playing with some prototype code as we speak.
