So #Fedora made me move my streaming set-up from #pulseaudio (and X) to #PipeWire and #wayland – and I’m way out of my comfort zone here. Visualized the audio set-up with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/ryuukyu/helvum/ and kinda wish I didn’t.

Neat, looks like Jean finally started blogging again: https://blog.jeanbruenn.info/2021/07/31/howto-setup-mta-sts-and-tlsrpt/
Hoping for more to come 👍
Metal is dead
So this is what happens when you stream a game nowadays. That’s all “detected” in-game music. And since Brütal Legend is all about Metal, garnished with gore and swearing, streaming it without would be… I dunno… like being a deaf person in a disco I guess.
The funniest one was Facebook. The part where the game glitched out early and played an endless loop of music for 45s got flagged and the stream instantly killed. Fat chance disputing that.
The best part? This is supposed to be under a CC-Non Commercial license – I am not monetizing any of this _at all_ but that doesn’t save me from ridiculous claims. Google as of today lists ~33.600 videos just on this game. How the hell is anyone out there making Let’s Plays or – *gasp* – actual music nowadays?
I can totally see how people flock to the video in masses instead of buying some gorram track on Amazon or Spotify just to listen to that endless loop for 45 seconds – my swearing and some hacking and slaying included.
Brütal Legend by Double Fine – now isn’t that ironic.
10/0 – Good game. Won’t stream it again.
Brütal Legend (on Linux PC)
I somehow never finished this little gem and since I feel somewhat nostalgic today decided to give it another spin. Interestingly this game was ported to various systems including Mac and Linux in 2013 premiering as part of the Humble Double Fine Bundle. This is probably also where I picked it up.
Anyway, uploading this will take some time but you can watch the partially muted recording elsewhere. Won’t upload it here thanks to ridiculous copyright claims.
Wow. I don’t care much for statistics but today I found out one of my videos has accumulated over 1000 viewers over the years. That’s a frightening high number for me – and it’s even on a nerd topic 🤪
SSH-RSA key rejected
Bitbucket: “Permission denied (publickey)”
Fedora 33: “no mutual signature algorithm”
BekoPharm: “🤨”
That’s right, the upcoming deprecation of the ssh-rsa algorithm is here. Roll some new keys in time, folks! Don’t be like Beko.
Interesting, apparently Orbiter Space Flight Simulator is now open source (MIT): https://github.com/mschweiger/orbiter
That’s on my radar for quite some time now (buttons! switches!). Does this mean there is hope for a Linux version eventually? 🤓
I’ve an ever growing collection of #ffmpeg snippets and plenty of deep manual dives by now and I want to say: This software, that is probably powering most of the streaming and video editing internet industry, is heavily underrated.
Using React and Arwes for a stream overlay WIP
Can’t get enough of Diaspora: Shattered Armistice (on Linux PC). Of course with my DIY headtracker 😃 And while we’re at it we demonstrate https://arwes.dev/ – because nobody said that a sci-fi interface made with React can not be used as stream overlay too 👍
This is a Work In Progress and a DEMO.
Made to learn some React, get some freakin cool UI _and_ save me bucks on a stream overlay 😀
