Blocking incoming traffic and accepting outgoing traffic is usually the default for distributions anyway.

I’m not the creator of the survey, but I’ve just send them the link to this discussion on Mastodon, so they can take the feedback into account.
There’s an issue with posts about which games work and which don’t.
Thanks for the correction. It’s a shame that sysadmins balcklist middle nodes too, since they won’t see any TOR traffic originating from your IP address anyway.
Make sure to not refresh the page, else it seems like all progress is lost.
I found out simultaneously that I enabled pull down to refresh the page in Firefox Android.
Edit: The survey wasn’t created by me, I just shared it.
There’s different types of relay, including exit relays, which are the legally problematic type. Middle, guard, and bridge relays don’t face the same issues with law enforcement and IP blocking.
Blender and DaVinci Resolve work better on Nvidia. AMD might work, but it will be a hassle and you’ll likely need the proprietary AMD drivers anyway.
With Nvidia supporting Wayland and the open-source NVK continuing to get better, you could even switch to open source drivers for gaming at some point, if you prefer.
Edit: I’ve had enough issues with AMD GPU’s clocking down while gaming, leading to micro stuttering. So don’t buy AMD just because everyone tells you they work flawlessly.
For CPU and mainboard, everything works well — just don’t buy a random unknown SSD from Amazon, then you’re asking for data loss and random issues.
Yes, there’s many ways to make programs unable to use other network interfaces. E.g. I’m creating a network namespace with a single wg0 interface, which I make services use through systemd NetworkNamespacePath.
That said, I’d argue gluetun is pretty much foolproof, especially with most people using docker which messes with iptables (edit: although I don’t know if this’d be an issue for this use case).
I really wonder how you managed to uninstall nix. Editing configuration.nix shouldn’t even allow for removing .nix…
Anyway, this post made me remember why I used btrfs for my new btrfs system.
Yeah, I’m not sure whether Bitwarden always had support for exporting the vault on mobile, but it’s an awesome feature.
They are evaluating different ways to continue to support ad blocking. E.g. “unbraving” Brave Browser, or just implementing their adblock-rust.
They most likely won’t support MV2, since it would get increasingly difficult with each update to Chromium.

Creating a wayland compositor based in wlroots is much more work than an X11 window manager. And then there’s quite a bit of work to keep up with new Wayland protocols.
But I personally don’t think there’s a need for more compositors, since the existing compositors do support all kinds of tiling.
E.g. river has custom layout providers, which allows for creating completely custom tiling behaviour. There’s even a hyprland plugin which implements river-layout-v3.
I got the first part about Chrome as a joke, but after I read the edit I wasn’t sure anymore.
But seriously, Firefox kind of sucks.
Why do you think that? I’m happy with Firefox. It let’s me customize the tabs bar through userConfig.css
to exclusively use tree style tabs and supports uBlock. That’s all I really need from a browser, but, sadly, all other browser only support basic vertical tabs.
A lot of edge lovers here
I guess many here don’t particularly like Chrome, just like they don’t like Edge.
I.e. using a browser that spies on you to download another browser that spies on you doesn’t seem like a great deal to me.
Both being based on Chromium there isn’t even any performance difference between them. Insert “they are the same picture”-meme.
Transcoding and transcoded downloads does not seem to be merged yet, altough there’s a working PR.
I’ve been using COSMIC Epoch pre-alpha for the past two months, and it definitly is on a good path. There’s still many bugs, but COSMIC has gotten much better, and more featureful (e.g. I’m finally able to use my keyboard layout of choice and rebind all keys accordingly). The only major missing feature is VRR/adaptive sync, because I really don’t like playing CS2 with vsync.
Sadly they switched from dynamic tiling (river, awesome) to manual tiling (sway/i3-style), but together with the window-movement-animations it’s awesome. Finally there’s a desktop with a compositor made with tiling in mind, and not as an afterthought.
Also I find it great how many distros already have COSMIC packages in their community repos.
Almost all oft their breaking changes over the last few months were about their docker-compose setup and the simplification of the same. They’ve startend out with multiple purpose-specific (micro) containers, which turned out as a Bad design decision. These changes require manual intervention but seem to be mostly finished, so I don’t expect these to be many breaking changes in the forsseeable future.
The better you plan ahead, the fewer breaking changes you have to impose on your users.
I agree. From what I’ve read, they now have (published) plans for what’s ahead.
Iirc the droidcam module gives the virtual cam a proper name to be displayed in an app (e.g. browser, …).
desec.io can be used with any domain registrar and has an API with support for various ddns clients (ddclient, lego).
deSEC is a free DNS hosting service, designed with security in mind.
Running on open-source software and supported by SSE, deSEC is free for everyone to use.
Edit: To clarify, desec.io does not sell/rent domains. Desec has to be set as the authoritative nameserver on the registrar, then desec can manage domain records instead of the registrar (which usually also provides their own domain hosting for “free” by default).
Why LVM + BTRFS instead of only using btrfs? Unless you need RAID 5/6, which doesn’t work well on btrfs.
