  • Proton is mostly just wine and esync has been replaced by fsync a while back. Ntsync is another even faster/better sync mechanism.

  • That's fair. For me none of the alternatives offer enough features to replace it. I often use it to highlight POIs of a type and all the different map views are great.

  • I mostly listen to powermetal, symphonic metal and some rock. But I'm no programmer, I'm a sysadmin.

  • Yes, microG works without root, however to get it working as a network location provider you either need it installed as system app (for example LOS4microg) or patch android to allow non-system apps for providing network location.

    There's an official patch, also mentioned in the Install Guide and it's basically the reason for microg_installer and its revived fork existing.

    I could use LOS4microg, which does include the patch, but builds are run much less frequently (once a month instead of weekly) and I'd rather stick to original Lineage.

    Thanks for pointing out charging control, I wasn't aware of that new feature. One more reason to upgrade LOS my phone

  • I also do that because it lets me

    • limit charging with ACC
    • use microG as network location provider (microg installer revived)
    • fix SafetyNet
    • YouTube ReVanced
    • Make using other App stores easier (updating can happen automatically in more recent Android versions, but first installs still require confirmation outside the Play Store)
  • No, ActivityPub only send messages to the recipients. Uninvolved servers don't get the message at all until one of their users explicitly searches for it.
    In the worst case where every user has their own server, one message per recipient is sent. Adding another recipient on their own server means one more message being sent and so forth.

  • The whole algorithm (AppView) is centralised. While it's technically possible to host with enough capital, a second AppView server would also double bandwidth required for every message sent on the network. This gets worse the more AppView instances you add, as every message has to be sent to every AppView server (exponential growth)

  • Does MSYS2 use mingw32 or local as repo name? Maybe you could edit the pacman.conf to change the name

  • The year you know is not absolute to the galaxy. We need a different definition of time.

  • I might be missing something, but I'd trust WhatsApp to leak much less data about me than Telegram or Discord. Those don't have any form of E2EE.

    Also, what about using Signal?

  • The .mobi was a previous post where they bought the expired domain which was previously used by the .mobi WHOIS server.
    A bunch of systems apparently didn't update their WHOIS database and still tried to get WHOIS information from the old domain.
    This could lead to RCE in some implementations if they provided a malicious response.
    A bunch of CAs also accessed the old domain and use WHOIS to verify domain ownership. By setting their own email address for verification, they could have issued themselves a certificate for any .mobi domain (microsoft.mobi, google.mobi for examle).

    Now to this article, here they looked at a bunch of webshells with backdoors added by the developers. Some of the domains had expired, so by getting those domains and setting up a webserver they got connections from different systems infected by the malware. They could have used the same backdoor previously used by the devs to access those same systems remotely and do whatever.

  • Do you have the same ALVR settings on Windows and Linux?

    Edit: I reread and realised you didn't use ALVR on Windows.
    If you haven't changed any settings yet in ALVR, you'll want to increase the bitrate used for streaming. ~200-300mbs should be easily doable on 5ghz wifi and improve picture quality drastically.
    Also look at the foveation settings, these determine how much of your fov has increased quality vs the sides which are less important.

  • Trømp

    Jump
  • Sounds like some kind of saga

  • Can't help you unfortunately, but does this support 4-pin CPU and other motherboard fans? It's been a while since I last checked, but nothing really seemed to do that a few years ago.

  • I don't use Ubuntu personally, but it was great to automate for deployment in a corporate setting.
    Yes, Debian has some agnostic unattended install, but writing basically cloud-init is just so much better.

  • I watched a bunch of it some years ago. Original Stay Night, UBW, Heaven's Feel, Fate Zero and Apocrypha. Read the Fate Zero manga more recently, but that stops halfway through.

    Other than that and regularly listening to a cover of OP 2 for Heaven's Feel I really didn't do much since.
