UBlock Origin filter to hide the YouTube likes and dislike button. Since YouTube destroyed the dislike count, likes are now meaningless to the end user and only serve as a distraction.

Fix Steam game using wrong X DISPLAY due to Valve's container runtime disregarding host environment

If you ran the Steam process or Flatpak with a custom DISPLAY #, you might have noticed that games continue to use DISPLAY=:0 regardless

The reason for this is that Valve created their own container runtime called 'Steam Linux Runtime', and for whatever reason, they made the containers disregard host environment and did not give users the ability to set custom environment variables.

The "brute force" solution, the only one I know of

  • Right-click the Linux Runtime in your library

The solution for a Linux hypervisor host crashing due to a Ryzen vulnerability with Nested Virtualization

My scenario: I wanted to use Hyper-V's GPU Partitioning and WSL technology inside a Proxmox Virtual machine so that I could continue using Linux natively while taking advantage of Microsoft's groundbreaking virtualization features.

Problem

There is a vulnerability with the Ryzen Processor that allows a nested virtual machine's application to crash the underlying host system and even compromise the host entirely.
