I mean.... that's literally half though

edit: I am not a science man and I am in over my head in this argument

I know a VPS is a simple thing in theory but sometimes it's a lot for a beginner.

A VPS paired with Docker may also unintentionally expose something not meant for the outside world due to it ignoring iptables and ufw

That's why I said this:

Or, they could just buy info from a data broker and obtain a massive amount of information about someone.

They don't need warrants for location data if it's bought from a company that sells that data.

Whether or not it's admissible in court is another question, though.

Open MicroWave (Morrowind)

Think of how police obtain information about people. They usually do an investigation involving questioning and warrants to receive records and put together a case. They must obtain consent from someone or get a warrant from a judge to search records.

Or, they could just buy info from a data broker and obtain a massive amount of information about someone.

Imagine if every company has this info and can tie it in to your daily life. Google probably has your data location history and can see exactly what routes you've taken lately. They can use that information, with timestamps, to estimate your speed. What if they sold it to your car insurance company, who then uses it to raise your rates because you are labeled as a speeder?

What if your purchase history is sold to your health insurance provider and they raise your deductible because most of your food purchases are at unhealthy fast food joints?

Now, with AI being shoved into every nook and cranny in the tech we use, AI can quickly get a profile on you if it is fed your chat history. Even your own voice is not safe if it can be accessed by AI. This can be used to emulate you - Interests, chats, knowledge, sound. People could use this to steal your identity or access accounts.

I love these posts.

More ads and possibly less server costs due to reduced streaming time

If you decide to ditch Bazzite

Forgot to mention, I switched to Nobara. I had some difficulties with your recommended to remove the hidpp module file altogether and saw the frustrations that I'd have with an immutable distro. So far, Nobara has been super smooth.

A reputable VPN, preferably with port forwarding (I use AirVPN, $5/mo and I have no problems with it.)

A Usenet provider and indexer (Newshosting is reasonable; nzbgeek offers a lifetime subscription)

I'd say the opposite:

Any stealth game with a forced overt section should have a warning.

Examples:
Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Optional stealth game, but the boss battles just drop you in a room with the boss fully aware of you and that's the fight.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey - Optional stealth, except for the battles for power where you can flip control of an area. No stealth allowed.

Alright, I found a solution based on the last comment on that bug report!

Scrolling applications in plasma task switcher with G903 Lightspeed (wireless mode) is so fast that is unusable, but sudo modprobe -r hid_logitech_hidpp fix this, are these bugs all related?

Using that command turned every tiny scroll input into a full scroll. Pairing that with Solaar, disabling smooth scrolling, now everything works correctly!

Hell, this is worth a shot.

I 'm already shopping around for a new distro because of this. Games are completely unplayable because of the scroll wheel. The tiniest movement will swap weapons, even if I'm not touching the wheel at all.

Still not working :/

I looked at the boot parameters and the blacklist was not on there, so I typed it it and booted and it still didn't work.

I set up Authentik for some of my services and it works.

The setup really threw me off but I powered through learning it. It's a strange UI and process.

Basically you set it up with Nginx or Caddy or whatever reverse proxy you use. Your reverse proxy points to Authentik and Authentik takes that link and checks for authorization first. If not authorized, prompt login. If authorized, pass on to the subdomain or whatever it is.

To do all this, you'd need a domain.

Love my Racknerd VPS.

Edit: Some deals here

No dice :/

This is my original grub file:

    
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true

  

I added:

    
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="module_blacklist=hid-logitech-hidpp"


  

and that didn't work.

I also tried this:

    
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet" "module_blacklist=hid-logitech-hidpp"

  

and that didn't work.

Either I'm formatting this incorrectly, or my setup is different somehow.

Just use cast iron and metal tools
