Hello and welcome to my blog. If you are finding this page, then you might be in a similar situation I found myself when I wanted to share audio with different apps if they were being used by different user accounts on your local *nix machine when using Pulse audio. Credits to Eli Billauer and Dhole for the configuration directives I needed to make this possible. The Problem I have multiple user accounts on my system that run various apps, like my web browser, chat apps, email and more. I don't like everything running as myself and try to create a user account with just enough privileges to do what it needs to do. Pulseaudio (herein "Pulse") runs as myself when my desktop environment starts. Apps that run normally need to connect to Pulse in some fashion in order to listen to the microphone or play audio on the speakers. When the apps all run as the logged in user, this works great. When the apps run as someone else, this doesn't work or is inconsistent...

Hi all, So, I am getting into the crypto-mining space a bit and I wanted to share a few things I've learned. This whole experience has been teaching me a lot as of late! In this post, we'll be talking about xmrig what it is and how to compile it on Linux. I'm going to skip the wallet and other details as I wanted this post to be as context-specific and straight to the point as possible. Let's dive right in. What is xmrig??? My take on this is xmrig is a swiss army knife of a mininig tool that can be used for many algorithms and various coins. I mostly found and used this to mine Monero (XMR), so we'll take that as an example. xmrig supports both CPU and GPU minining, but not all algorithms are CPU- or GPU- friendly. Some are specific to either, so be mindful of what you are doing when you are setting this up. Let's dive into the build and running instructions and examples. Building xmrig I happen to be using d...
