I recently wiped Windows in favor of CachyOS, and it's been lovely! However, I have one outstanding issue that I can't seem to figure out.

To start, I have a Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX motherboard. I followed the guide on the Arch Wiki for my particular chipset.

I still can't seem to control my cooling fans.

• I have lm_sensors installed
• I installed CoolerControl
• I used modprobe it87 force_id=0x8628
• I tried adding the .conf files to /etc/modprobe.d/ and /etc/modules-load.d/
• When the steps above didn't work, I installed the it87-dkms-git package

No matter what I've tried, the only time the fan sensors get detected is when I also specify acpi_enforce_resources=lax in GRUB. From what I barely understand, that's not an option you want to leave on permanently, but perhaps y'all know better or have other ideas.

If it helps:

• Motherboard: Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX
• Latest CachyOS kernel
• Boot: GRUB

Edit: I have a semi-solution.

sudo modprobe it87 force_id=0x8688 ignore_resource_conflict=1

...allows the module to load without completely changing the acpi policy. I still don't know how to make it cleanly permanent or automated, but this is significant progress.

Also note that it should have been 0x8688 in my case, as revealed by sensors-detect.

Edit 2: Added

/etc/modules-load.d/it87.conf
it87

And

/etc/modprobe.d/it87.conf
options it87 force_id=0x8688 ignore_resource_conflict=1

And everything loads automatically! Thanks everyone!

Rubio is on a tear right now. Fuck this fascist piece of shit.

Thanks for wasting our taxpayer money on this political theatre, you prick. There's real crises happening right now, and you're over here going, "Buh duh statues make me horny!" JFC.

Tuta is having a birthday sale, putting their highest Legend tier at the same price as their second-highest Revolutionary tier, and I'm wondering two things:

• Is this a good deal for 36€ per year?
• Is this a deal that comes around every year, or is this a rare sale?

I use addy.io to manage aliases, so the extra addresses are whatever. The custom domains might be nice, since I could potentially(?) use that with Addy. I've been pretty judicious with my free 1GB of space, but having 500GB would be more than comfortable (besides being overkill).

I'm not really interested in getting into self-hosting right now, but I might in the future, so I'm also curious how y'all who self-host email feel about a deal like this. Comparable to the cost of self-hosting? Similar features?

Thanks!

I've been doing this for a while, but it's a problem I've never solved. Dunno if it's my crust recipe or something I need to do during construction.

The recipe is as follows:

• 1c water, 120°F
• 1 packet dry active yeast (2.25tsp)
• 1Tbsp granulated sugar
• 2Tbsp olive oil
• 3.5C white flour
• 1tsp salt

1. Mix the yeast and sugar in the warm water, wait to bloom
2. Add everything else and mix into dough.
3. Knead, proof
4. Roll out, transfer to pan
5. Second proof (optional)
6. Preheat oven to 425°F
7. Construct pizza with favorite toppings
8. Bake at 425°F for 15min or until cheese is sufficiently browned

Step 7 usually has jarred marinara, meats (except pepperoni), spices, and cheese, and all the veggies (and pepperoni) go on top.

Still, the very middle part of the pizza ends up a little doughy, just where the sauce meets the crust. The outside of the pizza is just fine, but the only thing I can think is that the sauce is adding too much water. Do I need to add a layer of oil before the sauce, or should I try to reduce the sauce before adding it? Should I reduce the temp and increase the time?

Thanks!

Edit: Everyone has had some great ideas. I'll have plenty to try!

Marked NSFW, because Naomi Wu is...not shy about her chosen aesthetic.

This is an old one, but as I consider adding devices like Yubikeys into my security mix, I realized that hardware encryption won't help me if a State actor simply seizes the key. In the US at least, authorities can force you to operate a fingerprint reader or utilize a hardware key after you've been arrested, and that was legal before things turned into a technofacist's wet dream.

The threat landscape is evolving almost daily, and it's no longer a given that speech is protected by default. If you do any kind of activism, be prepared.

Unfortunately, Naomi Wu no longer creates content after she was temporarily disappeared by the CCP and ordered to stay quiet or else, but techniques like these will become increasingly necessary as governments around the world careen towards fascist mafia states.

I don't know if she still gets money from her channel, but if you want to support her, she made a local tech-buying guide for tourists. I don't have a link on hand, but I'll edit this if somebody finds it.

So, I use addy.io, and I'm slowly trying to de-google my life, but I ran into a service last night that rejected my email alias: Steam. So as of now, it's still stuck on Google.

I'm also using Tuta, but I'd like to avoid handing that address out to any online services if possible. What's the best option here?

Here's some ideas I had:

• Keep using that old Google address but filter specific senders and forward them to the alias I want to use.
• Set up a new email on Proton or Mailbox.org and use that to forward to my chosen aliases.

Is there perhaps a better or different way to have aliases for services that reject them?

Was reading this article, and it got me thinking. There's lots of people who are happy to complain at length, but what if we made it a point to pick a particular day each year to express our collective gratitude for the work people do for FOSS?

Whether in the form of donations or kind words (maybe even joining a project), it might be something that helps keep people going on the things they love but for which they don't get a lot of appreciation.

Curious to hear y'all's thoughts.

Edit: Someone mentioned I Love Free Software Day, which is cool that it exists. I like the idea behind it, but I'm hesitant to piggyback upon a well-known holiday, for fear of being wholly overshadowed (Valentine's Day is already stressful enough for some people).

I said I'd post photos when I got everything working, so here's my penultimate build!

It's penultimate, because I need to get an active cooler for the NVME drive nestled above the GPU, but otherwise, this build is basically in its final form.
