Somehow I don't understand electricity generation with oil. I have a normal oil well and transport the oil to a refinery 8m higher. However, not enough oil arrives there, even though the oil pump has a delivery height of 10m.

I have now installed a pipeline pump at approx. 4m, with the result that the previous 0.6m³ in the pipeline became 0. If I remove this pump, the content of the pipeline suddenly increases to 27m³ and the refinery starts working. and yes, the pump was pointing in the right direction.

The next problem is the fuel generators. I have 4 in a tower on the lower floor working. The supply seems to be sufficient. I now have build another 4 generators on the floor above the first floor, these again don't get any fuel, even though I have installed an mk2 pump directly at the bottom at the start of the riser pipe. The second floor is 8 walls higher above the first floor. This pump supposedly pumps up to 50m, but in the pump settings I only see a maximum height of 4m. Why?

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Where should I place the pipeline pumps? Should I use more refinerys? Or what's the secret here?

Since some time, I'm play Satisfactory on Linux. Performance is fine so far. But if I look on the moving conveyer belts with objects like iron ore or other things, this moving parts produce smudged artifacts on the screen. I don't know what this is called and what I can do against that. I have played the same game on the same laptop on Windows with exactly the same in-game settings. There are no such artifacts.

Is there anything I can do against that? Graphics card is a Nvidia 1050 with proprietary driver. I'm on Arch Linux. Proton is 8.25 GE. I have tested several Proton variant without any difference.

The first OS on laptop was Windows 10. After that, I have added Manjaro. Manjaro has added a Grub menu, with entry's for Manjaro and Windows. Now I want to switch to Arch. I have installed Arch on a separate partition. Arch has not added a entry in this grub menu, but this was expected. I have used update-grub from Manjaro, what added Arch to the menu.

But for some reason I can't edit the menu from within Arch.

I have tried to understand Arch Wiki what I have to do, to edit this menu from Arch. Can someone please help me to get this to work? I have tried to add my EFI partition /dev/sda1 via fstab to /boot/efi like in Manjaro, but this doesn't help to find the same menu with grub-customizer.

Any idea's?

Keep a minimum of 30GB free, for Windows update processes on the windows system partition. I don't how much the windows installation counts in space, but add that to the 30gb free space. I would recommend to have a extra partition for the games on NTFS and move your steam, epic, ubisoft, whatever library to that partition.

I have tried to use the same gaming partition between Linux and Windows, but failed every time. In the worst case this can alter your Windows privileges. At least I had this issue.

Currently I'm using Windows only for 2 games: Space Engineers and Empyrion. The rest works with better performance on Linux. Satisfactory, Ark survival, Elder Scrolls Online have more FPS on Linux with the same settings. I have to use a nvidia 1050 Ti in my laptop. With a AMD GPU the situation is a lot better on Linux.

I'm not a hardcore gamer, mostly im coding here and there. But sometimes gaming is a must have.

OK, many thx for the tips. Since my script in the service file is already doing some logging, i will try to use the last log entry, to find out, when it was last time running and exit the script, if it is not in the timeframe of 1 week.

I try to create a timer unit for weekly and daily backups. For example with the weekly unit, it should be executed once in a week, some minutes after login. If the unit was successful, it should shutdown and not start again until the next week. If a start of this unit was missing, it should be start again some minutes after the next login.

But for some unknown reason, the current unit starts after every login when I reboot the laptop. I am relatively sure that this timer unit is set up wrong, but unfortunately I don't know how I can implement such a unit better with the functions mentioned above.

[Unit]
Description=Run backup weekly
Requires=backup.service

[Timer]
Unit=backup.service
OnCalendar=weekly
RandomizedDelaySec=120
Persistent=true

[Install]
WantedBy=timers.target

I want to have only the FPS and the time to be displayed. On my screenshot you can see a setting with 16.7ms. I have no idea what this is, How can i remove this and keep only the FPS and the time?

I have tried to tame a Lizard Doggo today the first time. I'm playing the game now since 3 days and searched for this animal since the beginning. I never found them when i was walking. Today i could build my first vehicle and was more far away from the HUB. I found such a Doggo and could tame him. But after driving some meters, i couldnt find the Doggo anymore. Could it be, that they dont follow the car? How can i bring him to my base/Hub?

I try to play "Empyrion" on Linux via Steam. I have tried other games like "Satisfactory" without any issues and with a better performance as on Windows. But with Empyrion i get a max of 10 - 13 fps, where i have ~60fps on Windows on the same laptop. Graphic adapter is a nVidia 1050 GTX and OS is Arch Linux. If i remember correctly, Empyrion is a Unity game.

Oh there is a APK, when using Chrome or Samsung Internet (installed via Samsung Store). The store is generating and signing the APK. Only with such a signed APK OS Level functions will work. A good example is the share_target functionality. If this is enabled by the PWA and installed as APK, you can share text and links with the PWA. The same applies for PWAs on the Desktop, for example with Edge on Windows.

If you use the same PWA with Firefox or Samsung Internet installed from Play Store, it can only add a shortcut on the home screen, without share_target functionality.

Additionally some service worker functionality is very basic on some browsers. On one hand this is bad for functionality, but good for privacy. Assume a PWA uses a background sync service for example. This can exchange a lot data and sync it with any target in the web, without user consent. This is only a small part where service workers do not respect users privacy.

If you look at that we come in fast steps to this insane and total crazy manifest v3 webextensions. They are completely privacy nightmare at least how Chromium designed them. The Mozilla implementation is a lot better, but incompatible to Chromium.

Welcome to the ugly world of new web technologies.

This makes sense. Yes, I have paid in the playstore for this app (and I would do it again and again). But if I understand it correctly this would also mean, I could download their v4.3.8-ose from the official GitHub repo for free, and it would be updated automatically from Playstore to v4.3.8-gplay version (which is not free). Strange.

But this app is worth every penny.

I have installed Davx5 from F-Droid, from IzzyOnDroid Repo. Today I have checked for updates with the Google playstore and the App was updated to the playstore variant. I thought this isn't possible? What's going on here?

I would like to install Ungoogled Chromium, but I can only find ungoogled Chromium as an older version on Arch AUR and a "Ungoogled Chromium XDG" as a newer build. Can someone please explain me what's the difference between Ungoogled Chromium and Ungoogled Chromium XDG?

Since a lot of API's are missing on Android and others have unresolved bugs since age's, it's no wonder that Extension developers are total unmotivated to bring more effort to migrate their extensions to the Android platform.

What's new in Gnome 45?

Is there some way to set the keyboard layout on GFN in the browser, or at least use the system keyboard layout from Gnome?

According to the Arch Wiki, i should start Chromium with --disable-features=UserAgentClientHint` and spoof the UserAgent to Windows, but this doesn't work anymore. There are no Keyboard area in the settings.

If I use GFN on Windows, the area for keyboard layout is working.

Or is there some way to copy the settings from windows via Cookies or any other storage method?

I have connected my containers via conveyor tubes with some assemblers. The tubes and all parts are green and working. But for some reason, I can't move objects from the containers to the assembler, to disassemble them.

Do you have any ideas what could be the reason?

A similar question was raised some day's ago from a other person, but with different background. In this case, I would like to buy a nice gaming laptop. Of course I would use it for office and coding to, but primary I'm searching recommendations for gaming. I would like to play Wine/Proton game's and also native Linux games. As OS, I like to use Manjaro Gnome.

Should I better buy all of AMD (if yes, which CPI, GPU) or Intel/Nvidia? Or Intel CPU and AMD GPU? Which combination is the right one with best performance for a casual gamer? I prefer FPS games, if that's important...

Feel free to try it by yourself. Nothing easier than that. Reboot your phone and try to find it via Find My Device or ring it, without to enter your password before. It will not work.

BTW: it doesn't make sense to exclude security and privacy related things from encryption. Otherwise there would be an unusually high risk to compromise this sort of data.

[-] laskobar@feddit.de 10 points 1 year ago

Find My Device is completely useless until the device is unlocked. As long as it is rebooted and not unlocked, there is no way to detect its location. Since most phones (if not all), use an encrypted filesystem. With such, no service can't start if the device isn't initially unlocked after reboot, including Find my device.

This isn't only a issue with Google's implementation, it's the same with other implementations to.

I wonder the same, some time ago but for different reasons. If I have to buy a gaming laptop, what should I choose? Intel CPU and Nvidia was my best friend on Windows, but on Linux I'm totally unsure. I think AMD does a better job for gaming under Linux, but I have absolutely no idea if that's true.

[-] laskobar@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

The depth is changing constantly, because new subdirs are created and removed during the day and/or upload/sync process. Thats why the script is walking across the complete directory structure every time. But the dummy file is a nice suggestion. In this case, I can monitor only the dummy file and trigger the script on dummy file change. Good idea.

I've been testing KDE for several weeks now, XFCE before that but I'm back to Gnome. It just feels right. Everything is where I expect it to be. No searching in thousands of menus. What scares me about KDE is that there are tons of options and stuff that no one will ever need. Especially KMail I find just awful. So many options and you only find what you are looking for, after an extensive search via a search engine of your choice. This is totally frustrating. XFCE does a lot better here, but I miss the one or other pleasant animation when opening windows and the like. Gnome, on the other hand, isn't great either, but I feel most comfortable here.
