The best way for me when i was learning the basics was to have a separate device to experiment and test things on, and not worry about having to wipe and lose anything, and any time I got something working right I would make the changes to my “main”. But that’s was a while ago and things improved since then, and also everyone learns different.

So I would recommend trying to follow any linux communities on lemmy or reddit to absorb new info (a lot might be wrong or outdated), maybe follow some youtubers ( a few popular tech ones are making the shift to linux and learning from scratch too), and honestly even just memes will help. Just keep in mind that a lot of people state outdated opinions as facts, or repeat wrong info they heard from someone else.

For more accurate but less hand-holding info, start trying to find good actual forums for Linux, like a disto’s (spin or flavor of linux) forum or “discourse”. As long as you read or search for things before posting, people will generally be nice and willing to help out. Just try to provide any info you can when you post, and don’t have any attitude.

Advanced and more technical info can be found on an apps or distros website or github.

If you have specific questions about the Bluetooth keyboard, let me know in the reply and I’ll try to help!

P.S ignore all distro recommendations till you get more experience, in the beginning the biggest hurdles will be switching from windows to Linux, difference between distros do matter but are much smaller than people sometimes make them out to be. You should stick with one, preferably whatever a buddy or favorite YouTube is using, and save distro hopping till later.

Feeling bad about how you’ve acted in the past is a good thing, it means you’ve grown since then. So even if you don’t recognize it, it means you’ve changed and improved as a person since then. This idea might be what your friend intended to expressive when they said to not focus on the past as much.

People can only change if they want to, and it sounds like you want to, so you shouldn’t give up hope on becoming the kind of person you feel you’d have to be to get marriage and have a family. The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second best time is today. You seem to be taking those steps to improve yourself, and in a few years you’ll reflect back on how you are now and see how much you changed. Growth is hard to measure on a day to day basis. Keep up the good work you’ve obviously (to an outsider) been doing to improve.

You’re not clear on why you’re posting this, or what you want out of people’s responses.

You’re not clear on why you think you’re a bad friend, or why you’d be a burden to others just by interacting with them.

You’re not clear on what you know you have to do, but just aren’t doing.

Just saying/writing/admitting to something is helpful, because it forces you to confront it (and will be brought up in therapy anyway, so might as well do the prep work now). Just saying outloud the answers might make you realized how silly they are, or how they’re all connected, or what your priorities really are.

I apologize if this goes against your request, but as I mentioned, you were clear with your expectations.

I can related to your gas station metaphor, I feel that constantly due to gestures broadly at the world.

You’re too young to give up on marriage and parenthood, raw data shows that’s not true, you’re not even running behind yet.

And making one last assumption, but being distant or isolating yourself doesn’t make you a bad friend, and asking for help doesn’t either, only always asking for help and never asking about them does.

Ronald Reagan had something to say about that. I’d quote him but I don’t want 10% tariffs added to all my comments.

So a lot of documentation in general typically only covers beginner or expert levels, with almost no intermediate.

It’s always “here’s how to say hello world” or “here is how to extend our implementation at a low level”.

So it’s nice to have examples of intermediate use cases for power users who need to do more than the most basic examples, but don’t plan on submitting PRs to add or change functionality.

More info, guides, and examples are always better than less (as long as it’s accurate).

I’ll definitely have to take advantage of the hardware acceleration.

In regards to gaming, what kinds of games have you typically used this for? I’m not thinking about using this for competitive shooters or something like that where every ms counts, but what about games like a souls like where timing a parry or something matters, have you tried anything like that?

Lacking those features is perfect fine for me, I’m looking more for a remote display and input implementation anyway.

One last question, have you experimented with any compression or “enhanced” encryption for the ssh connection? If so, has that impacted the responsiveness at all?

You have no idea how grateful I am to you right now.

This has been on my personal project backlog for awhile now. I have run into so many issues and headaches with possible rdp or vnc solutions for my desired use case, especially with wayland being a must have.

I have recently fell in love with ssh and was planning on looking more into waypipe as a possible route to take as I kept seeing it recommended, but the examples and documentation i found was always “generic” or surface level and didn’t have enough of the pieces I needed to scrape together.

I’ve been putting it off due to only having surface level knowledge about all the pieces, and you merged like 10 of them in one go.

My biggest question to you is what is performance like? Like picture quality, audio delay, and latency/responsiveness around mouse and keyboard inputs? How does it compare to using something like an ipkvm, rdp, rust desktop, etc?

What’s between code berg and framework?

You seem like an amazing and reliable friend. I hope you’re not afraid of being an amazing and reliable friend to yourself too, sounds like you deserve it.
