In fact Linux is the superior version of Factorio, since you get to have asynchronous saves that don't pause the game

My Banking App does have the option to disable this feature.

It's all fine if it's a user choice, very annoying if it's not.

I disabled that realy quickly... If I wanted to search the Web I would use a browser. I can only recomment that, it speeds up search a lot and it now actualy works as one would expect

The It department told me the reason that they don't support Linux is the lack of good endpoint management software and the support overhead compared to MacOs

Ich habe unbound als eigenen Rekursiven Revolver angebunden. Bis jetzt noch keine Performance Probleme gehabt, zumindest nicht mehr als mit anderen DNSSEC Resolvern.

Oh good, another reason to install Linux on my next reinstall

It might be a stupid reason, I always used a local account even when connecting a Microsoft account later, since I absolutely hate how Windows names the user folder for MS accounts...

Massive Ground planes on a multi layer board were my breaking point.

I tried to clean the through holes where a micro USB port was secured and only could get it cleared by drilling out the solder.... (Only had a soldering iron and wick available)

Thing is you can have a single page app that still works with middle click, depending on the framework it's mostly automatic or some config for the router.

At least that's what I can say from my experience building a single page app, but considering I'm using new tabs extensively I did have some bias to make it work.

Let's not forget the biggest issue, mandatory Apps that don't work.

I know of a few Banks that require you to use their app for online banking or as 2fa for online banking. Some of these don't even work while the bootloader is unlocked

I have one group I play in where there are 7-10 Players. It's pure chaos, though since we play very infrequently and a lot of the players don't take the game too seriously it somehow works out.

Still would not recommend unless you like roleplaying with your fellow players until you get to your turn of GM attention.

Sadly VMs don't work with the Anti-Cheat rootkits, one of the only reasons I still have Windows

Oh Windows knows this is the EFI partition, there is a flag for that. Windows just doesn't care when it decides to nuke your bootloader with its own...

And yes, it's still happening...

You can do the same on Windows (mount ssh shares), there is an Fuse like project for Windows: WinFsp.

The Pi 4 is massively overpowered for a PiHole, but if you got one laying around doing nothing, go for it.

I have my PiHole running on a Pi Zero with a USB Ethernet adapter. The WebUi is a bit slow, but the actual DNS with unbound as a backend isn't any slower than on a Pi 4.

To be fair the PEI kit I was looking at is a aluminium baseplate, silicone heater mat, magnetic base & the PEI sheet, so basically a complete replacement of the bed.

since the glass is glued to the heater I was looking at a complete replacement at first.

I can also recommend EndeavorOS, mostly seamless install even with a Nvidia Optimus GPU (well that one took a bit of research on what to install exactly, not that it's easier on other distros)

99% sure that SMB and NFS doesn't support watching for file changes, so it will only be picked up at the next scheduled scan (by default every hour)

If I remember from PirateSoftware talking about this, recurring Twitch subs stop if the billing date falls within the ban window, so 14 days ban means losing potentially half of your subscribers.

The way I always heard it described (with the default setup) for the most popular DE's:

• KDE Plasma is the most "windows like" DE by default. Layout and most common behaviour will be very similar
• GNOME is more oriented towards a macOS like style. It doesn't allow as much customisation out of the box as others.
• XFCE is also a solid choice, not many integrated applications (KDE have their own version for many things like file explorer or search)

There a lot of others like LXQT, options that are not the "usual" Desktop Environment e.g. tiling window managers like Hyprland.

A lot of these can be installed in parallel and you can then choose which to start on the login manager, if you want to experiment which you like more.

There is also the choice of display protocol (X11 or Wayland), with X11 being the older more widely supported option. Not all DE's will work on Wayland.

I already have a laptop that has Arch running for a Year and I haven't regretted that a bit.

Im just to lazy to make some space for Linux on my desktop that's already dying and just waiting until I have replaced the Motherboard and CPU.

Especially since I will need to Dualboot for some programs and Windows really likes to kill my bootloader unless it has its own drive with its own EFI partition
