Git Commit Freeze Due to GPG Lock Issues

If you encounter a problem where you cannot commit changes in Git – neither through the terminal nor via the GitHub Desktop application – the issue might be a freeze during the Git commit process. This is often caused by GPG lock issues. Below is a concise and step-by-step guide to resolve this problem.

Solution Steps

1. Check for GPG Lock Messages

Open your terminal and try to perform a GPG operation (like signing a test message). If you see repeated messages like gpg: waiting for lock (held by [process_id]) ..., it indicates a lock issue.

How to setup SQM QoS for GeForce Now on OpenWrt routers with Qosify Cake for no packet loss and frame loss

I was trying to setup and optimize SQM QoS (Smart Queue Management and Quality of Service) on my router for Cloud Gaming, and specifically for GeForce Now, for quite some time. I hope these findings will be useful to someone.

Smart Queue Management is great and works amazingly to reduce bufferbloat, and by default it's optimized for Voice calls and fair queue between all traffic.

Running shell scripts easily in Gaming mode on Steam Deck

(Alternatively: "How I stopped using Syncthing on Steam Deck")

Disclaimer: As the title implies, this is about shell scripting on your Steam Deck. The guide won't teach you how to do that part, it assumes you already have ideas in mind about what scripts you'd want to write. Stopping the usage of Syncthing was what I wanted to do with it, but you can do whatever you like.

Background (you can skip this part)

If you're an avid gamer who picked up a Steam Deck and now you're splitting your time between it and a more traditional gaming computer (or in my case, several other gaming systems as well), you may come across a situation where at some point you want to start doing more advanced things on your Steam Deck - which may mean "how do I get files onto or off of this thing".

This will be a step by step guide on exactly how I installed box86 on my Acer Spin 513 equipped with a Snapdragon 7C. This guide should work for several other Snapdragon Chromebooks, though YMMV. Mediatek devices will follow a similar setup, but you will compile the Rockchip (RK3399 or similar) version instead of SD845. Now on with the show:

Step 1 - Setting up Crostini

I've tried this on Crouton, but unfortunately it just doesn't seem to work on my ARM based Chromebook. If you have Crouton installed on an Intel Chromebook, it should work, but I'm not sure about AMD based Chromebooks, as their graphics drivers are different.

It's tempting to immediately create a new Crostini container, but that's actually not what we need here just yet. You see, box86 relies on something called binfmt-support in order to work. Inside Crostini, this means creating a "privileged" lxc container. You may want to have a separate container just for running x86 applications in; for this guide, I'll be using one called "x86" for
