I use ckb-next to make my RGB keyboard work on Linux. Maybe you can find some ideas by looking into that project

My LineageOS phone already has a “share WiFi” feature that displays a QR code as well as the SSID and passcode I thought this was standard on all modern phones
So guests use their phone data to access a publicly available list of WiFi credentials and then use that to connect to your home network???

coolie4@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•I have used Windows all my life, and I have some questions.114·4 months agoHow do OS updates work in Linux? Is there a “Linux Update” program like what Windows has?
This is known as a package manager. The package manager (along with some default settings and preinstalled packages) is what makes each Linux distro different. For instance, Debian uses apt, Arch uses pacman, Gentoo uses emerge.
Each package manager uses a different way to upgrade software. For instance
apt update
refreshes the global list of available software and versions andapt upgrade
finds differences between that list and what you have installed, and upgrades as needed.There also snaps and flatpacks, but I don’t support the use of those.
How does digital security work on Linux? Is it more vulnerable due to being open source? Is there integrated antivirus software, or will I have to source that myself?
Yes and no. Open source allows attackers to find vulnerability in code, but also means more eyes are on that same code and able to fix those vulnerabilities.
Although permissions can largely be ignored on Windows, its critical to Linux. Its a little much to explain here, but a standard install is fairly secure because of permissions. The important thing to remember is to harden the root account (no remote login) and be very careful what you execute with the sudo command.
Many people [incorrectly] don’t use AV because historically Linux hasn’t been much of a target due to low adoption. The trifecta of software I use are ufw as a system-level firewall, fail2ban to block an attacker who tries to bruteforce entry and repeatedly fails, and ClamAV for AV.
Are GPU drivers reliable on Linux?
Yup
And also, what distro might be best for me?
I think Mint is currently the recommended distro for new users. It used to be Ubuntu, but canonical has been doing some very anti-community things lately.

If you’re poor, you can’t really exploit the working class.
Of course you can. It’s called turning to crime. Most pimps, low level drug dealers, etc, aren’t rich.

My main issue with the game was actually just the grappling hook. For a parkour game. It felt cheap having to use one, and dumb that you could only use it in specific poibts rather than anywhere.
Otherwise, being open world makes it at least worth a play.
It’s a shame they never made a sequel
But they did make a more open world reboot/prequel
coolie4@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•I just finished playing through Crash 2 for the first time!English2·2 years agoCompletely agree about the Strategy Guide nature of those crash games. Some of the levels you’d have to go all the way to the end, just to run all the way back to the beginning.
In a linear game like crash, often with one way ledges, I wouldn’t have even considered going backwards most times.
Nonetheless, Naughty Dog always puts out hits
