Charging control (80% charge/scheduled full charge if wanted) is available on my Pixel with CalyxOS
is it not available on the Fairphones?

because swap does other things than “extending” your physical ram

in the right meme I believe the nvidia driver borked

My Arch Linux Homeserver and VPS which ran since years are like: “huh?”

Not a single Ubuntu upgrade failure on my book anymore 🤞

.zip is already a thing

I’m using Caddy (sometimes in a container or most of the time as system package) as reverse proxy mostly for containers
I try to minimize non-container services but they work well with Caddy too

Traefik is a tad more complex (still nowhere near Apache2 levels though) but scales more easily espcially if you only run containers and start/stop them programatically

if you are open to learn something new: Caddy webserver has a dead simple config, fetches tls certs by default for you and works with crowdsec too

the way SteamOS works is extremely different to how a regular Arch Linux runs so I wouldn’t really conclude anything from that
it just shows how little the underlying distro matters

it is kinda wild that people abandon Windows 7 because of Steam and not because Microsoft stopped patching it several years ago

Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

I don’t think Steam actually recommends any distro since some time anymore

even consumer SSDs have around 1500 TBW (Terrabytes written) per TB until warrenty excludes any failure
which means you could write for example every day for 10 years 400 GB on a 1 TB SSD
this is already a very low estimate, most SSDs do better

anyway OP mentioned enterprise SSDs which can write 1.0x or 2.0x it’s own size every day for 10 years

the amount of plugins are also amazing
convert non-lossy files automatically to aacmp3|ogg? fetch lyrics? push updates to mpd/sonos/jellyfin?

If Jellyfin would do such stupid thing, somebody would fork it to a new project
in fact this did already happened in the past: Jellyfin was forked of Emby after they changed their license

Unity includes telemetry for some time
I believe you can’t actually disable the telemetry (or Unity intro logo) in the “free” version

oh there is a way without the user accessing it espcially on Windows: Anti virus scanner
since most of them scan all downloaded files a zero day exploit for these software might be automatically executed
bonus points: Anti virus software typically has system permissions too

(likelyhood is still hilariously low)

I’ve been running qbittorrent in tandem with wireguard vpn in docker container for quite some time in germany

the harder challenge is actually finding german torrents at all

unfortunately germany is heavily “dub centric” and a lot of people here never engaged in english more than needed in school

convincing family/friends to watch a movie/series with subtitles is sometimes challenging

The torrent clients I used (flood and qbittorrent) can use the hash directly to import, is this not the case for all?

on linux it is probably easier to setup podman nowadays with Podman Desktop and being easily available in most repositories while Docker never released their Desktop app on Linux

on anything else Docker is the least path of resistence currently but who knows if they fuck up again in the future

CalyxOS released a built too, seems like it as easy to flash like Pixels which is actually refreshing for Android Tablets

Bitlocker is only redumentary included in the cheaper Windows “Home” versions
only the “Pro” version actually includes proper Bitlocker tools which is frankly a pretty stupid move
