It’s a Frasier reference, listen to the intro of the show. The next line should be tossed salad and scrambled eggs, just similar enough to the chair name to have made someone want to make the meme.

Files are encrypted at rest, if they are not actively interfacing with the encrypted mount it is secure. If you encrypt your entire system it’s safe from attacks when powered off, but as soon as you’re booted in the machine is fully accessible.

I would not expect rsync to have frequent disconnects, no.

Do you have a reference for that? I haven’t seen any channels that saw noticable decline in non desktop viewership

… I do? They’re like the most basic manifestation of mastery over a particular section meaningfully impacting my experience. Not only does getting good at a run back let me focus on learning the boss more, but it also increases my general mobility throughout the map as a whole and drastically improves how cool it feels to replay the game and just blow through previously challenging sections.

I personally have 100% completion and only fell below half my available shards a couple of times. I probably still have most of my shard consumables to restore them when you get low if I had to guess. I used the fire tool a fair bit late game, and the boomerang early game for a couple of fights, but presumably since I was using a crest with only one tool slot I consumed shards slower than the average joe.

I once tried to delete the .steam folder off of an hold SSD, but the .steam folder is a symlink :(

Nice bait

Laptops don’t have micro b ports, micro b is just a form factor of one end of s USB cable. You can have a-> micro b or a-> c.

Is this bait?

Looks like a blizzard is in the realm of $6? I don’t go to DQ, but living in a region with many of them I can say gas is generally accessible for ~$2.50 so unless you’re driving something that gets 10mpg there’s basically no way to make buying two be worth it. I only have to fill up gas once every month or two because my car is a plug in hybrid and I rarely go more than ~40 miles in a trip so it’s unlikely I use gas at all. With free nights I don’t even really pay much to fill my battery.

Gas is pretty cheap

Wouldn’t you be incapable of enjoying the sun

I’m not going to pretend I’ve been a Linux purist my entire life or anything. The landscape for daily driving desktop Linux was really rough in the time period you described attempting to migrate, but I had Linux laptops assigned to each kid in my school circa 2007 and that ignited my interest in the platform. My father was an enthusiast and build a safe environment for me to experiment as a kid when I otherwise would have been out of my depth. I had a Linux box, usually an Ubuntu derivative, around pretty much continuously from 2012-2017 which would have been pre-uni for me and served as just an environment I could easily play with making small web projects and Minecraft mods and whatnot. But I gamed on windows for most of that time. I think when proton hit I failed to install arch and bounced over to Manjaro which was my main gaming distro untill maybe ~2021 when I got tired of things breaking because of the aur and just migrated to arch using the arch install script came out and I was able to set it up trivially. Since then it’s been pretty much “it just works” level compatibility, there are some niche things about my setup that are a little more complicated like some networked pulseaudio stuff and a bunch of development tools I need for work at this point, but overall I have my wife running fedora on her laptop and using a steam deck in desktop mode at her desk and she generally is able to do her schooling and whatnot without issue. I think the only real program she has issues with is an examination specific browser that she has to use another machine in the house for. I have not daily driven windows for the better part of the last decade and while I definitely have frustrations with no great CAD solution and the antagonistic relationship with publishers like EA and Epic Games, I also just am able to play my friendslop and souls games without any issues at all. I’m sorry you had negative experiences with the community, but it’s kinda weird to direct your negative feelings for the losers that gatekept you at the entire platform, particularly when the platform grossly outsizes this particular niche and it’s through the support of countless open source developers that we have the ability to do anything outside of the scope of Windows spyware or the fenced garden that is MacOS.

If you just want an experience as straight forward as the steam deck I have heard that the move is to just run Bazzite.

The rage bait isn’t even funny anymore lmao, most used OS on the planet btw. Have fun sucking microsoft off I guess

What connection do you think a third party is saving when using openid? Generally speaking the only thing the third party needs is your identifier which in most cases is just an email. It’s no more devastating for the user base for that information to be leaked than it is when they’re handling authorization themselves. I personally think using a government backed authorization platform is a terrible idea and something completely liable to be abused by those in power, but it would objectively be better than trying to have every single service store your personally identifiable information themselves.

??? This is just textbook sso/openid but backed by the government. There’s nothing intrinsically insecure about having third parties send you directly to a trusted government site for authorization.

Not a Windows user but this was my solution when I was
