Get a cross body sling, One of those travel digital nomad things. The brand ones aren't cheap but it's like somewhat fashionable. Maybe that could work?

Anytype looks interesting but it looks like most of it is non-free non-opensource software:

While our core solutions, the infrastructure protocol any-sync, and the data protocol any-block, are released as open source under the permissive MIT license, we distribute the remaining layers, including the middleware library any-heart, and applications like anytype-js, anytype-swift, and anytype-kotlin, under the Any Source Available License. This license grants individuals the freedom to review, modify, and utilize the code for personal, academic, scientific, research, and development purposes. However, for commercial use, consent from the Any Association is required.

Sorry to ask but why is get/set facl not sufficient for acls on linux?

They had some serious cryptography issues (including no perfect forwards secrecy!!!) but they have promised to fix that. I've not yet seen any paper analyzing the new protocol. But maybe it could be good?

Edit: Here's a paper with some of the issues: https://www.research-collection.ethz.ch/bitstream/handle/20.500.11850/623004/main.pdf

They conclude that:

The seven attacks we have presented highlight fundamental weaknesses in the design of Threema. Indeed, the Threema protocols lack basic properties that are nowadays considered de rigueur for a messenger app to be regarded as secure: forward secrecy with respect to a malicious server, and protection against replay, reflection, and reordering attacks. We believe that the cryptography in Threema has design flaws that need to be addressed in order to meet the security expectations of its users

They have redesigned their protocol since then but again i have yet to see a third party look at it but TBH i haven't looked into it.

But here it's deleting /* and not / so I think it won't prompt you for that flag, but I'm not about to try it

Well if they are in the repos i assume it be less likely to have incompatibilites when updates happen?

It's just sorta strange to be because everything from fedora, ubuntu to arch and even windows just works in virt-manager without any special settings and openSUSE just doesn't even get to the installer.

The S22 charges at a maximum of 45W. That's technically within the 60W limit that all USB-C cable can handle. I could not find how exactly how the charging works but it's possible that they are doing something like 9V @ 5A and thus are requiring a 240W or 100W cable. However it looks like in this particular case it might not matter.

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/02/the-galaxy-s22s-45-w-charging-doesnt-actually-improve-charge-times/

GSMArena says the Galaxy S22+ charged to full in 62 minutes on the 25 W charger and 61 minutes on the 45 W charger. The Ultra took 59 minutes on the 45 W charger and 64 minutes on the 25 W charger.

The problem with openSUSE Tumbleweed I have is that so far I've never been able to install it. For all other Linux distros I can just get the ISO and use virt-manager to create a VM. But openSUSE never manages to boot. Any ideas why? I'd love to try it.

Edit: I'm trying it again now and i made it into the installer now

Edit2: installed it and am trying it out. Looks good on first glance but some packages that i'd really need to use it as a daily driver appear not to be present, like gnome-shell-extension-appindicator or gnome-shell-extension-caffeine

What kind of phone do you have? All USB-C cables should be able to do at least 60W charging.

That's not really true. The E-Marker in the cable does not do the negotiations. Its involved in it but its not as complicated as you make it sound. There are a total of 3 different completely backwards compatible cable types in regards to power delivery. 60W , 100W (which is legacy) and 240W.

Huh they work great for me. Which Ladda did you get? I think there was some brown or like yellow ones or something that were made in china and weren't quite as good I think. Also the LADDA 1900 will have a longer lifetime than the LADDA 2450s. In the same way that Eneloop Pro have fewer recharge cycles than the normal Eneloops.

Tipp for people wanting to get into rechargeable AA and AAAs: get IKEA Ladda batteries and their charger. They are cheap and japanese made. Some people argue that they are just relabeled Panasonic eneloops!

Edit: Oh also if you used rechargeable batteries in the past and you remember them sucking that's probably true. But the battery chemistry is better now and it's possible that your batteries degraded quickly because of "dumb" chargers. Modern chargers like the gray 4 battery Ikea charger detect how and for how long to charge and thus will not ruin the batteries.

Maybe it's a u.2 or u.3 nvme Enterprise drive?

I love USB-C for charging and data and display. But it does not replace 3.5mm. Aside from the things mentioned so far in the comments here, a fundamental problem is that now headphones need DACs in them.

The engineering specification states that an analog headset shall not use a USB-C plug instead of a 3.5 mm plug. In other words, headsets with a USB-C plug should always support digital audio (and optionally the accessory mode)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Audio_Adapter_Accessory_Mode

That increases the cost of headphones and introduces a point of failure and makes things more complicated for the end user. It's just not worth it.

I think the explanation was needed. Even if one knows about interrupts, it's easy to misunderstand the meme. For example i thought it was a joke about a person writing assembly and being used to 32 bit code and thus mistyping %rax as %eax, and I've seen another comment here referencing "muscle memory". (Obviously the interrupt interpretation makes way more sense and it's funnier)

I only buy nice (not just 3A 2.0) cables that have proper labeling on the cable. And then i can just assume that all unlabeled cables are simple 3A 2.0 cables.

Just today I was wondering why I only have a 500GB sata ssd in my Laptop and then I realized that I bought it in 2018 and the price difference was just not worth it at the time. Nowadays it feels like one might as well get a 2TB nvme. If prices keep falling like this soon a 4x4TB nvme NAS will be positively cheap!

thanks your thorough response! I'll have a look!
