I absolutely loved 2. I beat 2 before I beat 1, but went back and beat 1, and beat 2 multiple more times.

I can't say I have an order, but I love:

  • Kingdom Hearts 2
  • Kingdom Hearts 3
  • Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep

Those are my favorite from the series as whole.

I really couldn't ever get into Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories or Re:Chain of Memories.

Back in the day, I bought Birth by Sleep and beat it, but wanted more; so there was an English Patch of the final mix for PSP available and beat that too. And when the collection came out on PS4 (Before the PC release) I went and bought a PS4 Pro just for KH collection. Which now I am going back and beating all of them again but on Proud.

I loved Kingdom Hearts 3 regardless of the masses saying otherwise. It's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it. I've been around since 1, all the way til it's end.

I am not sure if there is a good way to do it without scripting, and a router that would allow for taking variable input from an external script. But theoretically if the router would support it, you could script a port change at times there are no one on the server.

Essentially the server port is in a text file, you could use some command line utilities, and write a script leveraging something like sed to change the port in place.

But I am overcomplicating it. lol

I was pondering on building my own spin of Arch. Have a look at this: archiso

I am on Wayland and have the issue.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I tried using Bazzite since I didn't want to fuss with Wayland on Nvidia with Arch.

I had more gripes and more issues with an immutable distro than I ever did with my Arch install.

Stuck it out with Arch. It has taught me a lot.

The problem many folks have with Arch is the fact they don't want to read or learn; well, newsflash, if you read and learn Arch isn't exactly all that hard to use, setup, or maintain. It has better documentation than Bazzite and other newer distros. In fact, Arch Wiki has saved me hassle for other distros.

Your mileage may vary. However, I wouldn't recommend an immutable distribution nec3ssarily to someone coming from Windows unless they want to shift from one paradigm to another.

Switching from Windows to something with such a vastly different approach in many cases will turn users away from using Linux. Their experience can dictate they switch away because of lack of knowledge and then proced to conflate every distro as just one "Linux" experience and not want to look back at it.

I still stand by one thing you will always hear me say: use the right tool for the job.

I'm having similar. When machine dims the display, it's changing my monitors brightness and doesn't bounce back.

There are very few games I have I can't play on Linux.

Cant get the Crysis Remastered trilogy (epic games variants) working. Can't get Alan Wake Remastered working above 16fps. And a few more, but guess I don't need to play them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I will always recommend people to research their choice of distro. Use the right tool for the job.

What one person needs may differ from what another person needs. Take into account what the use case is for the machine you are using.

I use Arch BTW but I don't run Arch for any of my servers. I use Arch where it makes sense for me.

I wouldn't tell someone switching from Windows to just go balls to the wall and go for something blerding edge and arguably more maintenance or manual intervention needed.

I will give my suggestions but always implore them to research what theyt3 looking for.

Guess I won't be playing Playstation games.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I understand that. I didn't call FUTO FOSS...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I wasn't meaning to conflate the two, as I see your point. I didn't claim it was FOSS, just that the source was available.

I know for me, I don't mind using software that is licensed so that it doesn't directly fall under FOSS. I just like the availability to view the source vs closed source software being a total black box.

I have no plans to monetize their work, nor fork it, only use it.

 

Hello Selfhosted peeps!

So I just got Traefik v3 setup inside my docker environment, and successfully got SSL certs for my services hosted within docker. However, I have an external device hosting PiHole and Wireguard-UI. I am looking to use the docker instance of Traefik v3 to obtain SSL certs for the internal use only for PiHole and Wireguard-UI.

I am still new to Traefik, and have no idea if this is possible, or how I would go about doing this.

Any tips, suggestions, links to documentation; I am all ears.

Notes for above video

These 2 resources I utilized to help further my understanding.

Thank you

Hi all!

So I want to get back into self hosting, but every time I have stopped is because I have lack of documentation to fix things that break. So I pose a question, how do you all go about keeping your setup documented? What programs do you use?

I have leaning towards open source software, so things like OneNote, or anything Microsoft are out of the question.


Edit: I didn't want to add another post and annoy people, but had another inquiry:

What ReverseProxy do you use? I plan to run a bunch of services from docker, and would like to be able to reserve an IP:Port to something like service.mylocaldomain.lan

I already have Unbound setup on my PiHole, so I have the ability to set DNS records internally.

Bonus points if whatever ReverseProxy setup can accomplish SSL cert automation.

 

Not a stranger to using linux, but never bothered with keeping things synchronized between devices.

I have a laptop, and a desktop both running Arch (I use Arch BTW) and wanted to investigate the best way to synchronize things from device to device. Just to outline some details, both are running KDE on Wayland, both BTRFS, as well as a number of other similarities such as username.

I want to be able to synchronize certain config files, Documents and Files, and was going to go the Syncthing route.

What are you doing, or what would you recommend to setup in order to have parity between two devices?

 

I am having issues with Mangohud and Goverlay.

Upon opening Goverlay it gives a black box and has issues closing without forcing it shutdown.

https://ibb.co/pnzKZdd

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Kernel: Linux 6.9.5-zen1-1-zen DE: KDE Plasma 6.0.5 WM: KWin (Wayland) CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700KF (20) @ 5.00 GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 [Discrete] Memory: 4.09 GiB / 62.60 GiB (7%)

I have tried uninstalling both Goverlay and Mangohud

I have also removed .conf files from: ~/.config/MangoHud /usr/share/doc/mangohud

Is there more that I need to do to clean uninstall and reinstall?

Any help would be appreciated

 

As the title states, I have used Nova launcher for years. As it is the most feature rich, most customizable launcher that supports basically everything I could need from it. However I am looking to switch away from it.

What launchers are you all using?

I have tried a handful of them and none quite fit the bill. And one feature nova has but no other launcher seems to is invaluable to me; that feature being able to swipe up or down on an app on the home screen to launch another app or task. It's how I keep my main page from being cluttered.

I have tried Neo Launcher which I love, but it doesn't seem to be updated anymore.

I have also tried:

So the only option I am feeling is gonna work is Nova but I am trying to ditch as many closed source, data thieving apps and services as possible.

I could however just use AFWall+ to block internet connection.

Any suggestions?

So, I am making the switch to using Arch full time instead of Windows.

Here is the rundown:

I have windows installed on one NVME and installed Arch on another NVME. After installing Arch on the one drive, and rebooting Arch hung at loading initial ramdisk. It never completed, I force shutdown my PC.

I went back into bios, and there wasn't an entry for my Arch drive whatsoever.

In fact, before this happened I had all bootable drives go missing from within my bios.

So, after the reboot, I left the boot options default, and it did in fact boot to windows.


Other potentially important details:

I used archinstall rather than walking through manually.

UEFI

Secureboot off

GRUB bootloader

Unified Kernel Images on

Luks encrypted BTRFS partitions

Audio Pipewire

Kernels: Linux and Linux-Zen

Network Manager

Hardware:

CPU: i7-12700KF

Motherboard: TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4

GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3

RAM: Corsair VENGEANCE® RGB PRO 16GB (x4)

PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 GT 1000W

Drives: 1tb WD Black SN750 (Drive intended for Arch to be installed on)

1tb Samsung 980 Pro (Drive windows is installed on)

2tb Samsung 980 Pro (separate data drive)


Should I remove my windows drive while installing Arch on another drive?

Rather, what would be the best approach to this?

Could anyone provide any help regarding this?


Edit: More details

 

2024 will be the year I finally be the year I ditch windows.

I am not exactly new to linux, yet I am far from an expert. I made my journey over the years form trying Ubuntu (many many major revisions ago) and have found myself down the rabbit hole of going Arch. I run Arch with KDE on my laptop. I want to fully ditch Windows on my desktop, however I feel this will be a much bigger hurdle to overcome.

Build Specs: i7-12700KF Copper Modded EVGA RTX 3090 64gb of 3600mhz DDR4 ASUS Tuf Z690 Wifi D4

I could go into more detail about my specs, but the specs aren't what has made this journey a bit tougher. I use a Line 6 Helix and a Line 6 PowerCab 112+ and both have usb connections to my computer for integration with, you guessed it; windows or mac software only. Now I don't have a problem running wine, and a number of other solutions to run windows programs, I do however have a gap in knowledge in order to try to use these specific programs with specific USB peripherals.

Now, I am not sure if this is the best way, but I had heard the idea of USB passthrough. And I have no clue where to begin with that. Would this be the direction I should be going for programs such as those?

The only other software that I am going to struggle replacing is the RGB lighting software for all of my hardware. Most of it is corsair (Fans, RAM, Water Cooler, and plugins for the asus motherboard.) And my Steeleseries keyboard which uses GG.

I have looked into using OpenRGB but I was unable to figure out how to get those setup as it wasn't as plug and play as the manufacturer software, but understandably of course.

The absolute biggest hurdles is my Nvidia problem. I have always had issues with Nvidia on Arch. I would gladly take an suggestion. For reference, I would be using this mainly for my gaming. I occasionally dabble in Stable Diffusion.

I will be running Arch with KDE preferably, but every single time I have had issues.


I suppose any feedback anyone may have would be helpful.


Checklist of things I need to get working on in Arch, any help would be welcomed:

  • Helix Guitar pedal and PowerCab 112+ (USB Passthrough or any other alternatives people may suggest)
  • RGB for SteeleSeries Apex Pro (GG software on windows, open to alternatives)
  • RGB for Corsair (iQue on windows, open to alternatives)
  • Nvidia Drivers
