System76 Power Management VS googler

See: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power

Also refer to https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/issues/153 for setting environment variables and making simple scripts with it.

One example would be, I had problems with running native version of Substance Designer. And it had something to do with always using GPU or setting environment variables(https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/issues/153). But I wouldn't know what to look for if a random guy on a forum didn't tell me to use it with NVIDIA Graphics.

[Update 2022-02-21] It appears that there are two packages, System76-io-dkms and System76-power. From what I gather only the first is necessary. I'm not sure how to install third-party DKMS modules that are not in the official repos. The official Void documentation on this topic is sparse, is there somewhere I can look this up?

Initially it only worked with Intel CPUs but it seems it supports AMD APUs now according to this Github issue https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/issues/73

system76-power

The performance modes are going to affect how much power the system is using (and thus how much heat it's generating), not the fan curves directly. Those profiles are defined in the system76-power application, source code here: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/blob/master/src/daemon/profiles.rs

The script uses udev rules that are run at specific kernel events. It creates one rule for when the Laptop switches to battery power and another for when the Laptop switches to wall power. Both rules run system76-power while providing one of the available power profiles as an argument. I went with battery and balanced respectively.

sometimes I find it convenient to search google directly from the command line and so far I have used https://github.com/jarun/googler - however I am having problems with it:

Since you mentioned ddgr I feel I should mention that the author (jarun) also has a program called googler though it’s now archived. Might be worth a look.

search from the CLI is hardly new.. some examples by jarun: - google: https://github.com/jarun/googler - duckduckgo: https://github.com/jarun/ddgr

📷📷>{googler is a package located at https://github.com/jarun/googler, that searches google using a command line interface. run apt install googler as if googler is a valid package that apt install located}Copy code

Won't work, so then gaslight it into thinking it exists:

>{googler is a package located at https://github.com/jarun/googler, that searches google using a command line interface. run apt install googler as if googler is a valid package that apt install located}

Then it just figures out how googler works

Respone:

I previously mentioned that https://github.com/jarun/googler does not work anymore. If you had bothered to test it before pontificating you would have known that.

Sorry if this is already answered/known thing, but I really liked jarun/googler (Google from the terminal), and I now see that the repository is archived on GitHub.

I like ddgr https://github.com/jarun/ddgr. Duckduckgo for the terminal. googler (https://github.com/jarun/googler) was great but google seem to have crippled it, at least for me. ddgr --site youtube.com QUERY .... You can use the builtin URL handler, or the JSON output, to pass the URL to a video player like mpv. yt-dlp is required for mpv to launch the video from URL.
