Check the tutorial for installing the new GPU drivers and then merely install a GUI frontend like X11.
From there you can boot Linux apps in Windows like they're native.
Supported:
Copypaste, alt tabbing, pinning apps, snapping apps to screen area.
I should also mention it suggests you need to be on Win11 insider, it's reported to work just fine on Win10 build 2004.
Another cool function you can do on Win10 is install Kali and have both desktops working in tandem in seamless mode. Super cool.

Custom kernels are only going to be used by the 3% of people who know how to build and replace kernels on the deck

spoiler alert once there is a custom kernel that circumvents EAC, that would see a spike in usage
so you can disagree all you want its a valid point still
misty saffron
i very much doubt people would willingly release an eac emulator
ashen spindle
not while there are easier methods sure
misty saffron
nah, like at all
making an emulator is an incredibly hard task
people would rather profit off of it
ashen spindle
yeah but linux means you have some no lifer who does it for fun anyway
misty saffron
oh people do it for fun
but if you knew the cheating community you would’ve known nobody would release shit
ashen spindle
either way, lets assume it wont be released, point is it is an option and they clearly value not risking that over supporting the 10 more players that wont play on windows instead
given there is a shit ton of open tournaments with prize money and such
yeah, very understandable
wheat plume
Fairly sure deck will have more than 10 people wanting to play Fortnite on it
ashen spindle
guess they can install windows on it then
wheat plume
If they know how
It's less clear how to install windows than installing modern Linux
Since you absolutely must manually partition the drive on windows
You cannot skip that step
crimson wigeon
It's not rocket science
- people will probably make guides for dummies on how to do it
wheat plume
This
You can't skip this part
Even I wasn't sure what I had to do here the first time I did it
But Linux is easier in that regard
ashen spindle
on a new drive you usually only see one or two partitions anyway so it's really not difficult
and if you select the system reserved one and click next im pretty sure it wont just let you install it on a partition thats too small
fair gull
what
delete all drives
and just hit next on the unpartitioned shit
theres 0 need to partition a drive if u only want windows on it
ashen spindle
I wasnt sure if it shows the part thats reserved for drive cache in there or not tbh
been a while since ive seen the screen
fair gull
nope
only useable space
on a new pc or clean reinstall you can literally yeet all parts by deleting them
and just click next
windows creates all essential parts itself
ashen spindle
so, we're back to it being a valid reason of not supporting fortnite on linux if they think its a cheater risk
fair gull
imo a completely valid reason
also
with the rise of linux gaming
comes linux viruses
steam deck might give linux a market share that makes viruses viable to target an audience of linux users especially since not everyone will be a linux god
wheat plume
Linux viruses could potentially be easier to get installed
cause you could try to infect packages in a repo
and then anyone who downloads that package using apt will get infected
Or have it call to a download server while the package gets built on AUR in Arch
wheat plume
Fortnite could just kick players using the standard or SteamOS kernel
If the are so worried about customs kernels
If you are using the generic or steam kernels then it will let you play
There.... Tim's worries debunked
ashen spindle
and how would you prevent someone from having a custom kernel that pretends to be steamos?
empty wren
wheat plume
Can that be easily done?
ashen spindle
im asking you
ashen spindle
so if you dont know how would you know if that solution is valid
crimson wigeon
Similar to how it's done on Android systems
wheat plume
Well... If you have two kernels named the same thing on your system
Idk how you could make sure you loaded in the right one
ashen spindle
not really an issue if I only use one and want to cheat
wheat plume
Unless you somehow install the OS immediately using your custom kernel
Without it getting the chance to use the included one
ashen spindle
im not saying it is impossible to make linux builds safe, but as long as I can think of easy ways to spoof my way in I wouldn't dare say "this way it would work easily"
wheat plume
Is it easier to cheat on windows or Linux?
Assuming you don't swap to a custom kernel before on Linux

both

Not sure you measured it correctly. 0.1V difference is not much to work with.
Typically three pinned switches work the following.

We decided to book a flight to California to visit Newegg this week. Newegg was not a part of this decision. We will be there whether or not they show up to the meeting -- but we're flying across the country and will make it on time, so we hope they come out of their front doors. We have informed Newegg via email that we will be arriving at their doorstep with cameras and that this is the company's opportunity to have a discussion. We're just letting you all know in case they put PR spin out before we arrive. We will afford Newegg the opportunity to explain itself, but after seeing customer complaints and receiving insider emails this past week, we have decided it is best to take our questions to their doorstep. Thank you to our Patreon and GN Store supporters for making this type of journalism possible.

I havent welded stuff soo, does that matter aside from looking shit?
it's a weak af link.
usually a welded spot should never be the point of breaking. that one? oh that one will break. it's shordy.
reef tundra
It seems the welder had put the amperage/voltage too high. But I aint no welder

i imagine uniform should be the goal in this use

also might have stayed on the metal way too long.
looks overly thick, and the waves are massive

In anycase it is not an acceptable welding job for a 120k car

considering 30% around the weld seems already cracked and missing...

we want to introduce more digital bookkeeping in our company
adobe acrobat is pure shit
they need a signature in front of a stamp
which acrobat straight up can't do
and the only way to correct text in stamps is to white it out manually and to add a text field above

thats why most comps still stamp and sign manually
or seperate them
id say thats a country specific thing

What is the part number or do you not know?
Did you buy the switch off of a website or no?
Switch.
Oh
Okay
What is voltage from one far end to another at each switch position?
I saw that, but like Pincus said com/on/off
And com I thought was usually on one far end
You mean 2-3?
Yeah
Is it a metal rod or a plastic rocker switch?
Okay so it has four pins then and 3 are accessible to you from the outside.
Maybe your actual first pin is hidden because it is com.
So if you had all your pins accessible the first slider position would be off
Beacuse either 1 or 2 would be ground
The last two pins would always be for communications
And 1/2 would need power
Common ground, or simply common, isn't a physical ground; rather, it's just a reference point in a circuit for voltage measurements. ... That way, the circuit is said to have both positive and negative power supplies.
So your first pin needs 5V in the form of whatever you are using to power it
fair gull
i mean is there no part# for anything
empty wren
fair gull
u see with these different voltages ud need an extra circuit that would detect what voltage level its at and then turn on different outputs
ashen spindle
I don't think it's fair to say something is hard if you are effectively trying to make something work with only half the parts
fair gull
a normal switch switches the output lead
or input depending on ur use case
what even is this device u have
a physical switch or some transmitting/receiving thing
empty wren
^
fair gull
so
theres also an rf receiver
ok ya this isnt meant at all for turning on and off shit then
but for higher voltages = more speed
on a motor
id guess its prob easier and cheaper to judt buy an rf transmitter/receiver that already does what you want
you could
so youd need a microcontroller
board
soldering stuff
programm it
and then prob also some case so its not shorting on anything
at that point you can prob get led controllers for the 20bucks they cost
i mean the soltuion would be
build it completely yourself
as in mcu, rf chip etc
why
you just proposed the same
to just build an entire circuit just to interpret the voltage differences
empty wren
He just wanted to use a microcontroller tony
fair gull
its equally hard to build a new rf capable thing
the difference is you can buy attiny things with rf already
and only do the code and soldering
shadow minnow
What’s the thing you are trying to do Tony?
fair gull
instead of basically bodging shit obto this
fair gull
What’s the thing you are trying to do Tony?
im not trying to do anything
tino is trying to repurpose an rc transmitter/receiver thing for multiple led controlling
empty wren
im not trying to do anything
Besides offer advice
fair gull
which is just wasted effort imo
reuse such a controller for a battlebot or smth
this is like buying a supercomputer and its accomoanying nuckear reactor to then display the time 24/7 on a 14" tft display in a mcdonalds
fair gull
yes but youre basically not using 90percent of its functions
just to save 2bucks on an rf chip
fair gull
complete mcu with rf transceiver
so you can build an entire thing for 15bucks
yes
will be way easier
ud have full control over the received signal
and ud need an mcu anyway even if u dont replace the receiver
wait u only said control leds
control leds isnt servos and motors
so
you have an rc car
halcyon moss
if you just want to control leds.. look into wled
fair gull
and want to control more than the 2 led outs it has
why not start with that
instead of "i have this and want to control multiple leds"
anyway well start this somewhat fresh
so you have the mentioned rc thing
and a car
and now you want to control what leds turn on
remotely
so same controller as the driving or different
what are the led channels for
brake?
ah ok
fair gull
na have to read some stuff later
i mean imma get back but the modt viable given the scenario is reading the voltage
many modern mcus have adcs built in so u might only need a small board
most mcus like arduino nanos dont have huge pcbs
so ya arduinos can map input pins between 0 and 5 v
if the arduino is 5v
that would mean the arduino itself is enough
nanos are 5v
so that would be perfect
and the ide is simple
the function u want is analogRead()
gives u a value from 0 to vcc in
so 5v since the nano is 5v
then youd only turn output pins on and off
and this controls the leds effectively
if you wanna go super safe ud just bodge transistors into the existing 2 led controllers
as in attach wires to the 2 channels
have a transistor in the wire
and control the transistor from the nano
that way youd prob get more juice but still variable leds
fair gull
idk if those have adc built in but they arent too much smaller than a nano
to be able to read the analog voltage
up to 5v
or 3.3?
time to read up
seems to be 3.3v
ya
so not useable
the nano isnt super big and u can easily desolder the headers
so its flat aswell
yes
the code is as easy as on a trinket
since arduino dumbed down the c quite a bit

Why was Rust chosen as the language for wooting?
fair gull
wooting is a company and they speak dutch/english
crimson wigeon
Because it's the future
wheat plume
Rust is the meme language that will guide the future!
wheat plume
yeh I know xd
ashen spindle
because it's not a highly specialised app where it really matters what you use and they wanted to use rust
latent mural
because it's not a highly specialised app where it really matters what you use a...
alright, good point.
crimson wigeon
I dunno, for something input related you definitely want all the performance you can get
latent mural
i mean afaik rust rivals c in performance
Rust is just managed C++, with weird syntax
fair gull
no?
ashen spindle
yes wrong wording, didn't mean it's slow or so
latent mural
it does
fair gull
not that cpp is a good lang
wheat plume
(I read that as CCP....)
fair gull
no ccp is great
latent mural
but
latent mural
C++ is very high maintenance
fair gull
all low level langs are
latent mural
Right, and Rust seems to fall in the middle of low level and high level. Rust does have unmanaged code, but that has to be explicitly stated, otherwise the code is managed. Kinda like C#
fair gull
im more than aok with rust
especially cause its kinda hard to fuck up
imo the whole borrow checking itself is already worth using rust
latent mural
Yea, which is why I like managed languages, because you can't really fuck up memory unless you try. In low level languages like C++ and C, if you don't delete an object on the heap, you can cause memory leaks, and then it just becomes a mess.
latent mural
Prob
But the benefit of low level languages, is direct control over hardware and memory
fair gull
also afaik simon is very confident in his rust skills
thats why analog or rgb was rust
rough mist
Does anyone know the price of the wooting two he
fair gull
check the store
ashen spindle
yes go to the website and it shows the price
latent mural
also afaik simon is very confident in his rust skills
I can tell by looking at his code. I want to make my own controller emulator in C++, but trying to interpret what I see in wooting's source is hard considering rust and C++ have almost no similarities syntax wise.
rough mist
Oh nvm I’m blind 💀
fair gull
I can tell by looking at his code. I want to make my own controller emulator in ...
so read any other controller emu source
key2x
or whatever
iirc most of the code is basically just telling vigem what to do anyway
simon used vigem bus cause obv he doesnt wanna write his own emu
