I did both - I have steam and steam-run in environment.systemPackages and I have packages.steam.enable = true;

Here’s my hardware config:

  hardware = {
    bluetooth.enable = true; # enables support for Bluetooth
    bluetooth.powerOnBoot = true; # powers up the default Bluetooth controller on boot
    opengl = {
      enable = true;
      extraPackages = with pkgs; [
        intel-media-driver # LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD
        intel-media-sdk
        intel-vaapi-driver # For older processors. LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965
        vaapiIntel
        vaapiVdpau
        libvdpau-va-gl
      ];
    };
    pulseaudio = {
      enable = true;
      support32Bit = true;
      extraConfig = "load-module module-combine-sink";
    };
    xpadneo.enable = true;
  };

It’s a 2013 macbook air, which is weird because when I had OSX installed it played Stardew fine.

Just tried GE-Proton-9-9 and the play button goes to “stop” and then right back to “play”. I tried launching from terminal using nix-shell and steam-run so I could see the error messages when it crashes. Thanks for looking at your setup to see what was going on.

Apparently, I’m not the only one. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/help-running-stardew-valley-in-nixos/48574

How do you avoid those errors?

Some games don’t work, despite what ProtonDB says, such as Stardew Valley.

Honest quetion, how/where are drivers license photos saved? Is saving photos at the state level more or less secure than saving at the federal level? Also, the TSA supposedly just uses scans to speed up and more accurately verify, and claims not to save the scans (for now). If they wanted a database of everyone’s face scan, couldn’t they just subpoena every state’s DMV/tag-agency for license photos?

Ahh that’s good to know. I had no idea about libadwaita. Thank you!

Gwenview looks a little too full featured, but the Gnome Image Viewer (Loupe) works well. No dependencies needed in Nix, and the arrow keys let you flip between different images that are in the same folder. All of the on-screen functionality works (copy, move to trash, zoom in/out, toggle full-screen, etc.), and keyboard shortcuts and gestures work great. The only bug I have to work out is that it doesn’t respect the gtk theme I have configured (GTK 2, 3, and 4). Otherwise, seems like a good option.

Sounds interesting, but the requirements say it needs gnome-desktop. I’m using Hyprland on NixOS, so it doesn’t sound like this will work for my setup unfortunately. Thank you for the suggestion. Hopefully this helps others.

Can you open animated gifs in imv? I just get a black screen, but the home page says animated gifs are supported.

Doesn’t look like Hyperion is open source :(

Until there’s a FOSS version of Nova, I guess I’ll keep using Nova and have my firewall block its outgoing traffic.

For anyone that stumbles on this, try ‘QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=Fusion QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb synology-drive autostart’ for your startup command. That worked for me.

OMG are you fucking kidding me!!! Your comment got me thinking. So I looked at my desktop to see what I had in the startup command and it was ‘synology-drive autostart’ instead of ‘synology-drive start’. #livinthatlinuxlife #killmenow

Sigh… Thank you!!!

I use a bash script because I don’t know of a way to start a program minimized to tray using the hyprland config. If there is a method of doing that, I’d be happy to give it a try.

Nova launcher - there isn’t a good one for one FOSS replacement. Every launcher I tried from fdroid has at least one shortcoming (if not more).

How do you get those inverted bottom corners on your Waybar?

Thanks for the recommendations and for sharing your wisdom. I’ll give them a shot.

Lawnchair and Neo Launcher are close seconds but, unfortunately, there is no one for one alternative. Just use a firewall to block Nova’s internet access.

Waze

I don’t recommend downloading from unofficial distrobution channels without verifying a hash. That said, why doesn’t Exodus give Linux users a PPA? Mac and Windows both have auto updates for the Exodus wallet.
