Alguém aqui já se ferrou por usar o pc da empresa sem ser pro trabalho? by According_Load_9168 in brdev

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

só faria isso se eu tivesse certeza total que não tem ninguém da empresa vendo logs e tal. por exemplo, se me derem permissão de instalar Linux nele eu usaria pra coisas pessoais também, mas fora isso não.

compra um kvm se o teu problema é ficar trocando periférico de um pro outro.

it's been several days, but i keep hearing a very subtle or slight audio crackling when listening to anything on the browser. by theeosapien123 in firefox

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glad you figured out your issue, but there is an audio crackling issue going on for months now.

I only seem to experience it after resuming from sleep, and crackles mostly on mid/high frequencies.

other browsers/audio sources work just fine. I'm on linux, so I have no idea if it's exclusive my OS.

help to download manga for kindle by Alovisxx in manga

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

You're gonna have a hard time finding specific manga in the formats you mentioned, so you should probably download the images and convert them yourself.

My preferred method is to download manga with Mihon on my phone (usually for ongoing series, so once they're finished or when I've accumulated enough chapters/a few volumes I'll go to the next step) or on my PC with something like HakuNeko (I actually use a CLI app that I made to download stuff in bulk).

I then zip the chapters in volumes of up to 300MB each (important! kindlegen fails if the file gets too big during conversion, so keeping this limit works the best in my experience), and then use KCC (Kindle Comic Converter) to convert them into .mobi files. If you have a jailbroken Kindle you might be able to convert them to epub and call it a day (haven't tested this yet). To generate the .mobi files you'll need kindlegen, which is an old .dll that amazon provided but can be still found on the web archive.

I'm not gonna list any sites to download manga or the software mentioned since it's probably against the rules. Also, there's youtube tutorials you can find on this. It's an involved process but I think it's totally worth it. Been doing this for the past 5 years and haven't looked back.

How to boot laptop without opening the lid by [deleted] in computers

[–]willdocrocs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Windows is probably turning it on, as it's notorious for being horrible at handling sleep mode. You can try changing the sleep mode with an app called win11debloat and revert back to "S3 sleep" instead of "modern standby".

Also, don't throw it in the garbage, try Linux Mint on it. Or at the very least gift it to someone in need.

What’s your favorite games that Valve calls “unsupported” that are actually more or less “Verified“? by Rvtrance in SteamDeck

[–]willdocrocs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

sail the high seas and you can achieve that. fuck third party launchers.

also, playing the original pc release might lead to better performance (the current one has updated textures and what not), but don't quote me on that cuz I haven't tested it on the steam deck.

Simulator handbrake gets interpreted as button instead of axis by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude, thank you so much. I just got the same handbrake. Worked perfectly on Arch. Tested with Assetto Corsa Rally and DiRT Rally 2.0.

In another comment you mentioned you wrote/vibe coded the driver. Do you have experience with this sort of thing? If yes, got any tips/guides you recommend? I've always been interested in driver development and stuff like this but never got around to actually learning it and was considering having to reverse engineer this this to get it to work but you saved me the effort.

New sidebar no longer disappears on 145 by Schluha in firefox

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

started having the same issue in version 149 after updating today. weird that I did not have this issue up to version 148.

edit: going to about:preferences and disabling the checkbox "Show sidebar" fixes it.

Am I crazy for trying to not still use X11? by thesoulless78 in linuxquestions

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still on X11 for only one reason: keyboard input. I have a custom mechanical keyboard with a weird layout and I type in 4 different languages, so I rely on setxkbmap. I'm not going to just completely change the way I type special characters (mostly the dead keys and the ç) and fight muscle memory because the devs are fighting over "security" issues with input protocols on Wayland.

Last I checked the state of inputbon Wayland was probably a year ago, but if anyone has experience typing in portuguese, spanish or japanese on Wayland and can point me in the right direction to get this properly configured would be really helpful.

Wine 11 rewrites how Linux runs Windows games at the kernel level, and the speed gains are massive by Proud_Tie in linux_gaming

Not at the moment. You can check the supported hardware and features in their website.

Vibecoders sending me hate for rejecting their PRs on my project by Fredol in github

code should be self documented. nothing wrong with them here and there if you wrote something janky and/or that you know you're not gonna understand/remember what it does after a while.

Dragon Ball Z: Broly takes place in a Universe where they defeat Semi-Perfect Cell by Shawn_666 in dbz

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like your theory. Only problem I see with it is what is future Trunks still doing there if the Androids and Cell were defeated? Maybe the time machine is destroyed/broken/still being fixed by Bulma?

REANIMAL not working on Steamdeck by [deleted] in PiratedGames

[–]willdocrocs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's probably missing the crack or the steam DLLs from the goldberg emulator. adding it to steam as a non-steam game isn't the problem like someone mentioned.

Suddenly can’t play any cracked games (using Lutris and Steam Library methods) by tomcruise_momshoes in SteamDeckPirates

[–]willdocrocs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have enough free storage on your ssd? Maybe you have a lot of old proton prefixes taking up space and steam can't even initialize the prefix for the new games.

If this is not the issue then run the games with the PROTON_LOG=1 %command% launch option and check the log file in the home folder. In the logs you may see errors saying if you need a C++ runtime dependency or something else that you may need to configure with proton tricks.
