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.)
I was so surprised by how easy it was to install Yacy–I’d thought a self-hosted search engine would be tough, but I made a docker-compose file and pointed my reverse proxy to the server, works perfectly so far!
All-in-all a weekend well spent
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

For my SLS running EndeavourOS it works flawlessly…but not out of the box! I had to search and install the proper codecs to stop YouTube in Firefox from using all my CPU
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
I thought he was de-listing January 1st?
Delisting if the fees were not changed–they were. While new devs should probably steer clear of Unity, a game where development is 95% done should be released
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 agree–EndeavourOS (and its always up to date packages) is perfect for the Surface line! I’ve got an SLS (i5) and Surface Go (1) both running EOS; apart from a few update issues I needed to resolve manually, my experience has been fantastic
I wonder what percentage of Surface users on Lemmy are running Linux–I’d bet it’s significant. Massive shoutout to all the contributors to the linux-surface kernel for their hard work
When I’m using FreeCAD, I’ll use a spreadsheet for all of my variables, so everything is linked together by formulas. Next, I’ll use datum planes rather than drawing directly on object faces (which completely solves topological naming), although I wouldn’t attach the plane to the surface–just geometrically define the distance and angle in the spreadsheet and reference it directly (e.g. if I want a datum plane halfway up my object, I’ll make its height h/2)
