It’s a sentence from the point of view of the person at the doctors (or of the original poster relating with that person) implying an imminent move to Canada.

Time to go back to the times you dabbled in gangsta rap and replace all street references with desert references. Don’t forget about the camel samples while you’re at it

Possible issues with and solutions for selfhosting email is still infinitely more suitable for this community than advertisements for one of the many pay-to-use email providers. That does not mean this particular one is bad, this just isn’t the place for it.

I would avoid it, if you care at all about availability and downtime. The result will probably not be great, you need to ensure the server side gets enough resources under load, and setting it up may require constant restarts if things aren’t immediately working as expected.

Nonetheless, here is a link where someone did essentially exactly that on NixOS: https://astrid.tech/2022/09/22/0/nixos-gpu-vfio/

A truly inspiring bench design, it got it all: A huge space to place ads, for life would be in vain without advertisements. Reinforced mountings to make sure no one carries them away. And of course the armrests that surely only exist, so good, law-abiding citizens can relax more comfortably and totally aren’t a some incompetent politician’s idea of what problem solving looks like.

They are a lot more likely to think about Windows, as they actively decided to avoid using it by moving to Linux. That is in stark contrast to the subset of Windows users that would never give it a second thought, as they are unaware of what an operating system even is, nevermind having an overview of which ones exist and what their respective advantages may be.

As others have mentioned, the primary issue here are the hardware requirements for Windows 11. The result are millions of PCs (I guess, definitely a lot though) that are fully functional from a technical point of view, but cannot run Windows 11 and should not run any other Windows due to the security implications of running unpatched software.

I don’t think so, F-Droid should not be viewed as a play store replacement for the masses. I would instead consider it an opinionated store / repository for apps that have to fulfil some pretty strict criteria. This makes it a great resource, and a good complementary resource, because that allows them to be picky and stick to their values. And it enables people that don’t mind the trade-offs to restrict themselves to F-Droid without having to research every app themselves, if they want to.

Most general users would hate the idea of dealing with multiple app stores, but I think some fragmentation like this would have some benefits as well. Note, for example, that F-Droid does not focus on quality of apps: There are lots of little projects that maybe don’t look super polished or are in early development, etc., and that is great. But there could just as well be another App Store focusing exclusively on high quality, feature-rich apps, while taking a more lenient stance on open source code and it being free. Or whatever kind of focus you want to place.

Then again, this could be achieved with a good search function and filters as well. In the end, what F-Droid offers is more choice a better place for apps that Google decided to ban from their play store for strategic reasons.

That sounds like some bug that should not occur and would of course be painfully annoying. The main advantage of it are the apps it provides, though. Some of them are not available in the play store (like NewPipe, a very good YouTube app without adverts, if that is still around). It is also a good place to start if you are looking for some new app for a specific feature, mainly because it consists of free, open source apps and you don’t have to sift through loads of low quality software that is riddled with ads, collects as much data as possible, or requires some obscene subscription fee, if all you wanted was a flashlight or whatever.

Alright, good to know. Thanks for your input!

How well is that working for you? This setup in particular, but also streaming steam games in general?

Things like FiveM exist, which is exactly that. I’m not sure if that is at all affected by the anticheat though, I didn’t read the article.
