Most content (excluding their own) is not available in all regions due to licensing issues.

Actually, even including their own for some dumb reason. For instance, Paramount holds the rights to Star Trek, but there’s no way for me to stream some of the shows legally, because Paramount+ isn’t available where I live.

Which to me makes no sense. It’s just a freaking website, globally accessible, hosting content they own…

Then it’ll probably shock you even more when you realise that this thing is hosted on Github, a site owned by Microsoft… :)

… for now. They’ve already replaced the old Notepad with a bloated UWP version, so it probably won’t be long before it starts sending telemetry as well.

IT guy here, the NFC thing isn’t really a concern (NFC doesn’t work that way) or for that matter, any other wireless technology, as it’ll need to authenticate with your phone somehow. If you can somehow simply scan data from a phone without any form of authentication, that would be a massive security hole - something that would be patched by the vendors real quick. Also, if something like that were possible then the TSA/FBI wouldn’t have any issues pulling data from locked phones. Think of all the times you’ve had to put your phone thru the xray machines at the airports. Also see the case of FBI vs Apple for instance.

The other issues you’ve mentioned are valid though. Heck my Galaxy Fold won’t even fit in that slot.

it is a stupidly simple working demo of DRM circumvention

A much more simpler method is to just use Streamfab. No need for nVidia, a second PC etc.

Have you tried installing MTGO using Lutris? Apparently it works fine, but you’ll need some tweaks. The key is to use windowed mode, disable music and card animations:

Runner options: -Use the latest version of lutri-proton if it’s not the default. -Use windowed (virtual desktop) mode and the display resolution of whatever device you are playing on. This was the biggest fix of most problems for me with stuff related to proper rendering of windows. -All else is default from Lutris install

System options: -Uncheck restrict number of cores -Disable desktop effects -All else is default from Lutris install

In-game options: -Disable or silence music and Uncheck play client startup music -Disable card animations(summoning sickness and foil treatment)

I’ve also found that it is always better to close the program using the Stop button on Lutris, there’s a bug where sometimes if you close out of the game via the Close button in the window, it will not properly stop the game, and will prevent starting the game back up again. I also tend to start the game in Lutris instead of via a desktop shortcut.

In my experience (W11 + Fedora on UEFI Thinkpad), I’ve seen it actually get rid of the Fedora entry from the UEFI boot list. Reinstalling GRUB from chroot didn’t fix it, so I used EasyUEFI and manually added the Fedora EFI file to the boot list and that worked.

So it wasn’t simply changing the boot order, it actually nuked Fedora from the UEFI boot list.

Well, if you’re using Mullvad’s malware/ad filters etc there’s really no need for a PiHole in the first place (unless you’re doing some funky custom filtering).

Sure, I mean it’s not a big deal. But it felt a bit odd considering macOS and Apple Silicon usually flies in pretty much every other task, so the lengthy update just felt a bit out of place.

Just upgraded my M1 Air, loving the new animated wallpapers and lock screen.

My only pet peeve is that the offline phase of the upgrade took a whole 20 minutes - something which no other OS requires - yes, even for Windows, the offline phase of an upgrade is usually in single digits.

So this is something Apple definitely needs to improve upon.

Mullvad’s DNS. It’s available for non-subscribers as well, and their privacy policy explicitly claims they do not log DNS requests in any way. https://mullvad.net/en/help/no-logging-data-policy/

They support both DoT and DoH, and also have various servers for blocking ads, trackers etc (if you wish to use them): https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists

I that case, check out Fedora CoreOS.

https://www.talos.dev/

It runs entirely in RAM, administration is super simple, no ssh, easy to update/and upgrade, immutable, minimal distro designed specifically for secure container usage.

How about Gogs? The whole thing is < 30 MB, and is lightweight enough to run on a Raspberry Pi. You can even get a native binary package if you want to run it without the overhead of Docker.

If you’re browsing with a keyboard/trackpad then Photon may suit you better instead - and I can confirm it supports standard trackpad gestures and keyboard shortcuts for navigating back.

Nice, didn’t think of using Rewind that way.

How the heck would you attach another balloon, mid-air, whilst still maintaining balance?

Corrected, thanks!

• Fedora KDE plans to drop the Plasma X11 session, in favor of Wayland

• Because X11 is bloated, insecure, and in a development freeze since many years.

• Wayland is simple, secure, minimal; developed by former X11 devs.

• Challenges:

• Wayland’s minimal core protocols lacked essential features.

• Fragmentation in development efforts occurred.

• Protocol approval was political and time-consuming.

• Current State:

• Standard protocols for most requirements are now available.

• Plasma and KDE apps run well on Wayland with the upcoming Plasma 6 release.

• Many 3rd-party apps work via the XWayland compatibility layer, but some need to be ported to Wayland.

• Conclusion:

• Fedora aims to drop the Plasma X11 session entirely, if you don’t like it then switch disros.

• Many 3rd-party apps are already Wayland-ready, but many are not, and collaboration is needed to expedite this transition.
