  • encrypting the drive mainly prevent an eventual thief from getting access to your files, including personal documents and web cookies, since system passwords does absolutely nothing against someone with access to your hard drive, and that includes paswords you may have writtend on a file that you later deleted, where as if you encrypted your drive, there is nothing you have to worry about but to buy another computer if it is stolen

  • everyone else is right, the downvotes are unfair but your probleme seems to be fairly linux related.

    What are the specs of your machine and how do you launch the games ?

    depending ing on your graphics card, it may not support vulkan

    If you are not already, try to use lutris, that way you will be able to chose which version of whine and dxvk you are using and get a bit more info on what is happening with your system, I frequently run game from gog on it and they run fine

  • It's one of those older series I always looked at with a curious gaze without daring getting into it, is there any benefit from playing the older ones in terms of story/lore ? or should I just pick one that looks good and run with it without fear of missing elements ?

  • They probably do but I have a vague work memory of a model of personal printer that forced me to go look through the driverstore folder of another computer with the spyware installed because they didn't offer anything else but their program which couldn't be launched in the env I had to do it in

  • I think hp and windows rotted the way you view drivers, what I call drivers are just what your computer use to communicate with devices, they aren't software suite that updates and ask for your account, drivers are like 2kb text files with a index of available function and what signal to sent to the printer for it to print, what you see as drivers is the heavy and predatory spyware they ship with printer to steal your data and make you spend more miney, when you install a printer on linux (especially brother) you are just getting the little file with the printer's language, depending on your distro, it will give you a big ass list of available drivers to use with the printer you just connected, it won't ever ask you to update or even try to communicate with the internet, since it's a passive file that your computer use and not a program that is launched, those files are available on windows btw, the manufacturers just make them very hard to get for obvious reasons, and windows itself will install the spyware as if it's a driver through windows update, one of the many reason I fucked off of it

  • honestly, laser is laser, higher prices are usually stuffs like, integrated scan or bigger paper capacity, mostly added features rather than print quality.

    For the plug and play, you probably are still going to have to pick a driver during installation, most of the time, drivers for older model the same class of printer will work

    fake ex: PAPERLOVE CFG-3420D will work fif you have a PAPERLOVE CFG-3520D

  • there should be an authentication system certifying that your computer is using the right set of software before getting acess to the aur, it would be called the "os integrity api" and prevent the use of the aur from unapproved 3rd party software, all you would need to do is to log in to your verified arch user account and request a monthly aur usage token to be created and used by your registered system for the low price of 9.99

  • it's arch but they have their own repo and hold back most packages for a week to make sure they don't break something before deploying them, with moderate success, their main particularity though is to have attracted the hatred of arch users since their creation and even mentioning the name will get you a full lecture about how they're eating babies and selling their body parts

  • maybe it's not so bad, many of the reddit issues were caused by it's rotting culture of ragebait loving and bandwagoning, as much as the lemmyverse benefit from trafic, going back to news influenced hate trains and obviously ill white women screaming at a camera on all pages is far from desirable, imhu of course
