Just wondering since I know a lot of people quietly use a screen-area-select -> tesseract OCR -> clipboard shortcut.
- I separate subjects of interest into different Firefox windows, in different workspaces – so I have an extension title them and a startup script parse text to ask the compositor to put them in the correct workspace (lets me restart more conveniently).
- I have automatically-set different-orientation wallpapers for using my 2-in-1 depending on whether I use it in portrait or landscape (kind of just for looks, but I don’t think if anyone else adds a wallpaper change to their screen rotation keybind).
I boot on a custom EFI app to control my dualboot (instead of systemd-boot or grub) that asks a service on my proxmox server which OS I’m supposed to boot.
Overkill, but it allows me to control my dual-boot without a keyboard in my computer (because it’s a Bluetooth keyboard so I can’t really use it in grub anyway)
A custom EFI app? Is that like a handrolled Unified Kernel Image with some Proxmox-specific addons in it? How’d you make it?
No, it’s a EFI app I developed in Rust that does a query over multicast UDP and uses the result to select which EFI app (Windows bootloaded (yeah I know…) Or systemd-boot to start Arch)
There’s nothing related to proxmox itself, it’s just there that I host my LXC with the service that responds to the quey.
That’s so cool! I just started studying uefi-rs yesterday but haven’t been able to think of good use cases. Thanks for sharing!
