I started getting spam in German to an email address I gave to the town hall of my town. They use multiple domains to send it, but they all have the same link format that redirects to a fake AI-generated dating site. I’ve tried reporting some to the police, as well as the hosting providers, but haven’t heard back at all. I’d like to delete the address, but it’s the one town hall uses to reach me…
The amount of folks I see use Opera GX “gaming browser” because some influencer said so…
Darn. I recall reading good articles from some of these publications in the past. Shame…
This article reads like satire… it’s sentence after sentence of “and I did it using one of the [best office chairs]” which is a link to some review by themselves. Every bit mentioned had an affiliate link and there wasn’t an actual review of what the experience (software, setup, visual fidelity) is like??
Ouch, that sucks yeah. Guess I got lucky with the games my friends like to play. Only one is I guess Valorant, but I don’t engage with that one anyways. Guess you’re stuck on the dual boot until devs of these games start ticking the Proton support box :P
What games keep you on Windows? Besides a few anticheat-enabled ones which choose not to support it, basically everything works fine. I game (and work in gamedev!) 100% on Linux.
I think this pinpointa what makes configuring Linux so much fun for me. It’s one little problem/challenge after the next, it never prevents me from working but it does always give me something to work toward. Currenrly working on a notification display for my bar, and I hope it will be just as satisfying in the end as when I got my mouse to animate with movements or when I got my config to set my wallpapers correctly no matter the host.
Sooo how root-able are these? My family has had one unplugged for a couple years now, we tried to use it to reach less-techy family but the French localization was abysmal, so it’s stayed in the drawer of shame since. Seems like a good time to take it out and mess with it!
My router is an Archer C6 from TP-Link. I’ve never used OpenWrt, but I have used Linux on my laptop & server for many years. Is this worth looking into/possible without any prior networking knowledge?
Yeah, the interference argument is fair, but I think this is also the ISP (totally separate third party) trying to protect the paid plans they sell for connecting more than one device…
That’s good advice, however this dorm is not part of my uni (just a partner to provide housing) and the internet provider whose T&C I’m expected to accept and sign up for 1y of are a totally separate legal entity, that has a bunch of upsells for stuff like “connect more than 1 device” (which my router/AP would basically be bypassing, and I think that’s what these clauses are about). About the interference, is it possible to limit it severely while still having a reliable connection just within my room? I only really want to connect:
Thank you for sharing! I will check it out.
