Is this for Mail Plus or Proton Unlimited? I pay for Mail Plus, and have continually gotten the “P2P is blocked” page whenever I try to redownload the Ubuntu 22.04 ISO–maybe I should complain
Although looking at the VPN section, it does appear that the Free and Mail Plus plans have the same checkboxes, so perhaps I am reading it correctly
This is correct
Update: I have used Mail Plus since before Proton VPN was a thing, and have never been able to P2P download–Proton should make this clearer
Microsoft is warping the PC industry into something unrecognizable
Do you have any tips using KDE Connect with a local VPN (Wireguard)? It works great for me on the same network, but unfortunately fails to connect outside of my network despite one (or both) devices connected to my VPN
Protonmail–I’ve used them for my custom domain email for the last 4 years and have had very few problems (other than needing to recompile the Protonmail Bridge app so I could use it on an ARM server)–I think I pay around $50/year. I selfhost Nextcloud for everything else (files, calendar, news, etc.)
This post got me looking at their offerings again, and it looks like they have a $100 Air SE–if it’s the same ceramic heater design I’d say it’s well worth it
Arizer. Solid Canadian company, they’ve been making vaporizers for two decades, and they have a wide selection of different types.
My (original) Arizer Air has gotten more use than I’m willing to admit over the past 5 years, and while it’s starting to show its age, but still working without a hitch. If it gave out tomorrow, I’d go order the new Air (2? Max? not certain) with USB-C charging and a digital display, although neither of those features are essential!
How does Hogwarts Legacy run on the Steam Deck? With a GTX 2060 and FX-8350 I am unable to get good frame rates, even on the lowest settings

Yes and no. As my physics professor used to say, all models are wrong, our goal is to make the least wrong model. It’s literally impossible to simulate every event. For example, what if there was an anthill under the area where the rock is dropped? Maybe that will affect the resulting sound? Maybe, but it’s not going to make a difference to the observer.
We know enough physics to simulate a huge number of simultaneous events, but at some point a model becomes far too complicated (e.g. taking a week to run on a powerful computer), when a more simplified model will do the trick just fine. I personally compare it to FLAC and MP3–FLAC is of course best quality, but will eat up a ton of storage space, and MP3 (with compression) is good enough
Savages … and legends
My prescription eyeglasses have a blue light filter built in, and I still use night shift at night–whether it makes any difference to sleep is up for debate, but overall it’s just more comfortable to use I think!
Very true–the specific EOS repo has given me a bit of trouble in the past, but it takes like 3 commands to remove it and then you’ve got just arch (although some purests may disagree 🤣)
I disagree–a system (even Arch!) should be able to update after a couple months and not break! I recently booted an EndeavourOS image after 6 months and was able to update it properly, although I needed to completely rebuild the keyring first
Good writeup, but I don’t see the Fediverse as a single entity–if a single instance gets to 51%, and even 25% of the other instances fork and continue federating among themselves, then those 25% would function just as well, and likely maintain users with shared interests (i.e. how Lemmy is still interesting despite being much smaller than Reddit)
If Beehaw defederates, I will no longer think or care about Beehaw, since at the end of the day, the power of federation is by far the coolest thing in the fediverse; I am not interested in joining another Reddit clone! No hard feelings though, do what you think is right!
I’m using the Surface Laptop Studio with EndeavourOS (basically arch, so I have all the latest packages)–the performance issues stem from Nvidia’s drivers, so AMD should not suffer from the same problems, although I don’t have any AMD cards to test if hotplug with monitors is functional
I have extensively used an eGPU (Razer Core X) with an Nvidia RTX 3050 for gaming under Wayland. Using X11 gave me nothing but problems, but Wayland allows for full hotplug capabilities (as long as no monitors are ever connected to the GPU).
Of course, performance is fairly bad with the official Nvidia drivers + Wayland, but it’s good enough to play The Outer Worlds and a few other single player games, which is good enough for me! I have been entirely unable to get external monitors to work with the Nvidia driver (any help would be much appreciated), although they did work (coldplug) with the Nouveau driver.
When I was using Windows, I was able to hotplug/unplug the eGPU with monitors attached, effectively turning the GPU into an external docking station–I am closely following driver improvements, as this would be great to have on Linux to get around the 2-monitor limitation of the Intel iGPU.
Now this is fascinating–I’m seeing no ticks in Plus! Maybe it varies by country (located in Canada, but I think I pay in USD)
