How to stop a while loop by inputting a keypress
I'm trying to create an autoclicker using the pyautogui library. I want to create a fail safe for the user to break out of the auto clicker in case the cursor is not able to be moved and the user can't stop the program. I'm using the keyboard library to implement a hotkey to stop the auto clicker from running, but I'm not getting the intended behavior. The click() function is only executed once and the program quits. I'm on a Arch Linux, and gave the program root privileges as mentioned in the readme of keyboard

Code without modules?
As an example here is how the keyboard module does it: https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard/blob/master/keyboard/_winmouse.py

Cross-platform hotkeys and hotstrings?
If you needed a cross-platform solution today, I would recommend looking into Python and some of its related ecosystem, such as the keyboard package, which provides cross-platform hotkey support and keyboard automation, including 'word listeners' and its companion module mouse.

Also I took a census and zero founding members of NWA are "straight outta Picom". That's right, you heard it here first: Not even MC Ren is running Picom.

FPS drops when scrolling in monocle layout with Picom
Update: after reporting in picom GitHub repo this is temporarily solved by using --no-frame-pacing. Looks like a recent commit causes this. You can view the discussion here: https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/1072

In Picom with the rounded-corners setting how do you apply alpha to the menu list?
It looks like this was identified and the repo corrected in Jan (https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/808) but the NixOS package has not been updated since Nov.

I have two Linux computers which I use for gaming.... somehow the one with slightly inferior hardware gets significantly better performance. I'm trying to figure out why... any ideas?
If you have compositing you are likely using picom. You can check if it's running with ps -A | grep picom. I've never dealt with this issue as I don't really game on linux often, but I'm sure there's a solution somewhere in the github docs or issues. Worst case scenario you could always just kill the process with killall picom whenever you're about to game, and re-enable it with picom -b after. Do note though that currently running windows might bug out a bit when you kill/start the compositor.
