There’s a graph on the linked page, but I’m not quite sure what to make of it. According to the overall trend “SteamOS Holo 64 bit” seems to be decreasing but “Arch-based” (which is also what SteamOS is) seems to be the one that is going up the most. Fedora has only recently started being tracked, but they probably came under “Other” before.

Thanks for the info. I wasn’t aware of that.

This is the equivalent of “aww, don’t worry buddy… you’ll get it next time”. In other words, how you might treat a child (apologies to any children for the comparison).

This negotiating tactic is particularly smart because even though it can be used to gain favor with Trump/US, the final decision of who gets the prize is out of their control so someone else can be blamed if he doesn’t get it.

Look at the pink neon sign… :)

Just piggy backing this comment to save people a click. A mercury-arc valve is used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). It probably got a WTF for how weird it looks and how it looks like a crystal ball when it’s working.

I used Bitwarden for a long time and it was easy and convenient. I’ve since switched to KeePassXC which is less convenient, but it’s more private and secure because it’s offline. I wouldn’t recommend it to someone less tech savvy unless they are just going to need access to their passwords on one device as setting it up reliably with a cloud solution isn’t always simple.

It could be AI but may just have several turning axels at both ends. A lot of oversized semi truck trailers in Europe have turning axels at the rear to get around corners and can have as many axels on more extreme loads.

I chose Mullvad because they don’t ask for any personal details and you can pay anonymously, which means that their service is privacy protecting by design. You don’t have to rely so much on trust.

Proton seems to be a large and rapidly expanding company which looks like it’s trying to be a more privacy respecting competitor to Google’s many services. While that’s not necessarily a bad thing, I prefer companies that value stability over rapid expansion. I also don’t like relying on a potential single point of failure for everything. I have a Proton e-mail account but I don’t use any of their other services because I don’t want everything in the same place.

… but not if you support a group that protests against genocide.

The headline is a bit premature. They have only threatened to pull out if Israel takes part.

It kinda reads like Orwell wanted to write an essay on the subject but thought it would get a larger audience if he wrote it as a novel. I read it about twenty years ago and even back then it was terrifying just how many of the predictions had already come true.

Maybe I was lucky, but I had the same issue where I no longer had access to my old e-mail account and they sorted it out for me within a few hours (after a few e-mails back and forth).

It probably helped that I was able to provide them with a screenshot of the game in my Steam library as well as a list of all the games linked to my Rockstar account with dates of purchase. To find the dates of purchase on Steam I went to “account details” and “view purchase history”.

We’ve come a long way since burning ‘witches’ at the stake. /s

As far as I know, all Rimworld mods will work with Linux. You can either subscribe to them on the Steam Workshop (and enable them from the mod menu in-game) or download them manually and put them in the mods folder in the installation directory. I’ve played with modlists that had more than 100 mods in them and never had a Linux related issue.

To answer your other question, I dual booted Linux for a while, mainly because of privacy concerns, but switched to Linux full time around the time Windows 10 came out. The thing that gave me the final push was Windows 10 on my new laptop telling me it couldn’t open a zipped folder and I would need to pay for that feature! There was also a backup copy of W10 on a second drive that I didn’t know about which automatically overwrote Linux when I tried to install it.

On Linux, Firefox uses less memory and no longer requires a forced restart after an update has been applied by a package manager.

Finally! :)

You could try using Lutris or Bottles and see if either of them help. As a last resort, just running it through Wine after fiddling with the settings might work, but it’s a long shot.

EDIT: found this page that talks about a DLL that’s needed to make it work on Windows 10. Assuming it’s the game you’re talking about, that might help make it work.

This gives me more existential dread than it reasonably should…

Not been using them for long, but so-far Hetzner seems quite good. Just a heads-up, though: you will probably need to provide them with a copy of government issued photo ID (e.g. passport).
