  • GitOps + Renovate

    Gives you:

    • automation of updates
    • smart notification of updates that are below a certain confidence that it won’t break stuff
    • rollback: simply git revert
    • the whole shebang

    Some stacks that work well with GitOps are:

    • k8s + Flux or ArgoCD
    • Nix(OS)

    Mixing them is a LOT of complexity though. Just pick whichever you are most comfortable with. If you want a declarative immutable OS just for running k8s, check Talos Linux.

    If you don’t want to deal with GitOps, Nix or k8s, and you don’t need recent versions, just run Debian and set a cronjob for auto updates. Then only deal with potential breaking changes just once every 5(?) years or thereabouts.









  • PPSSPP: I initially installed it because my PSP Go was failing and corrupting my save files.

    Dumping all the PSP files onto a pc and loading one save with PPSSPP, fixed all the saves. Then I put them back on the PSP to continue my Gran Turismo career while commuting on the train.

    It was mind-boggling to me that the emulator could fix the original console. Of course, it also does all kinds of upscaling, double framerate, etc.

    After this happened twice though, I replaced the PSP with a Steam Deck. Sadly, the large stick on the Deck has caused me some trouble with controlling the higher end cars. PSP has no analog triggers, so all the finesse is in the flick of the ministick. I should load up GT4 (PS2) on the Deck soon. And MGS 1 through 3. Am very happy playing GRID (2008) and Death Stranding for now though.


  • Les cars de longue distance sont dans quelques pays même plus environnementale que les TGV, n’ont pas besoin d’infrastructure specifique, et sont le mode de transport le plus economique, permettant chacun de faire des voyages en Europe.

    Mais parce qu’ils n’ont pas le niveau de comfort que Mr. Gregoire aimerait, il ose de les appeler “pas dignés”.

    Je ne suis pas francais, donc excusez moi pour la langue. “Qu’ils mangent de la brioche”. Il y a pas l’espace dans les trains, c’est la realite economique.




  • Software-wise, if you are using a Linux installation with KDE interface, on an AMD CPU and AMD GPU, and are using a wayland session with gamescope to play games, it is very VERY close to the Steam Deck and you are benefiting from all the optimizations that were made for Steam Deck. Bonus points if the hardware is Ryzen 3000 series and Radeon RX 6000 series.

    You probably saw this, but Nexus Mods are asking feedback from Linux users, not just Steam Deck. Because, you know, apart from the sticks, size and touch pads, Steam Deck is just another Linux machine.
