Thank you for the advice about the copy, that could have been annoying later!

Ok so running dbus-run-session niri --session seems to successfully start niri with waybar. Now I just need to figure out how to get that same thing working with startup. Is there somewhere in void I can configure how dbus launches niri?

Just ran niri --session 2> niri.log and checked the output and it throws an error:

dbus-update-activation-environment: error: unable to connect to D-Bus: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11

Thank you! I have in my niri config:

spawn-at-startup "waybar"

My config is is just the default given https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri/blob/main/resources/default-config.kdl

Might you know where there may be logs I can check for the service?

Hey, I am trying to revive an old surface laptop with void linux, so far it hasn't been too bad. I decided to try and go with wayland and niri for the desktop environment with lightdm. It is all kind of working except for waybar which I can't seem to get going.

It does not launch on startup, I can run dbus-launch waybar from the terminal and it kind of works (with a fair few warnings). But it does show at the top of the screen! Some errors from running it like this include:

[error] media stopped unexpectedly, is it endless?
...
[error] Failed to query power-profiles-daemon via dbus

If anyone has suggestions would love to hear them, included is basically everything I have installed so far because I did a chroot install for LUKS.

- Waybar
- base-devel
- base-system
- chrony
- cryptsetup
- elogind
- firefox
- font-firacode
- fuzzel
- git
- grub-x86_64-efi
- intel-video-accel
- kitty
- lightdm
- lvm2-2
- mako
- mesa-dri
- mesa-vulkan-intel
- mutter
- niri
- obfs4proxy
- openssl-devel
- pipewire
- plymouth
- swaybg
- swaylock
- tor
- vulkan-loader
- wget
- xorg-minimal
- xwayland-satellite

EDIT: Found a solution by editing /usr/share/wayland-sessions/niri.desktop and changing

Exec=/usr/bin/niri --session

to

Exec=dbus-run-session /usr/bin/niri --session

Is cold brew just old coffee? by spectabilis in c/coffee@lemmy.world

Just wanted to come back here and say that I have been using this recipe for a week now and it's pretty good! Unfortunately I don't have a cheese cloth, so I have just been using my french press filter. But still, since I don't mind the bits that make it through it works for me! The only thing is I may make it a little stronger, but thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

I couldn't find a lemmy community for your party after having a search around, so figured why not make one!

First time making a lemmy community, so let me know about any issues.

Prepared my first batch of cold brew today, (32g ground coffee, 500ml water) and staring at it I can't help wondering what the difference is between this and leaving a brewed pot of coffee to sit for a day is? Could someone explain to me what makes cold brew special?

(Followed this guide btw)
