Teac TN-3B-SE vs. Audio Technica LPW-40

I'm in the market for a new turntable, and I was wondering if anyone here has experience with either of the models listed in the title. Both come the same cartridge stock (AT VM95E) so the sound quality should be similar enough. I was mostly wondering if there's some detail I'm not aware of that's different between these two turntables. Currently I'm gravitating towards the Teac since it's a tiny bit cheaper (just a 10€ difference) and I like the look of it more, although they're so similar that they could both come from the same factory TBH

Quick edit: If anyone thinks these are overkill, do let me know! I love music but my ears aren't extremely sensitive, I mostly chose these because cheaper models seem to do way too many things... offerings from AT that are half the price have USB, Bluetooth, pitch control etc. All things I can go without.

The Rega Planar 1 also caught my eye, but the price point is higher than the other two

Podman container doesn't start after system update

After an automatic update+reboot of my Debian server my Jellyfin container doesn't work anymore. When I try to run it from the command line I get: Error: crun: make '/home/serve/.local/share/containers/storage/vfs/dir/[string]' private: Permission denied: OCI permission denied

Here's the list of updated packages, in case it's useful: base-files buildah curl dns-root-data intel-microcode libc-bin libc-l10n libc6 libcurl3-gnutls libcurl4 libmariadb3 libpam-systemd libpq5 librabbitmq4 libsystemd-shared libsystemd0 libudev1 linux-image-amd64 locales mariadb-common systemd systemd-sysv tzdata udev vim vim-common vim-runtime vim-tiny wget

I tried doing some searching and it looks like a podman issue, but with no real fix for it? Not sure tbh. Do I need to nuke my container and start again? Or is there a way to fix this while keeping my config?

Small update: I did some digging around in the directories that error out and found that in ~/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes both the jellyfin-cache and jellyfin-config folders are owned by 100000, but they were the only ones. I tried changing ownership to my user but the error persists.

[Solved] XP-Pen drawing tablet on wayland

I'm looking to buy a drawing tablet, specifically the XP-Pen Deco L to use with Krita. I'm running Fedora KDE with Wayland on my desktop and was wondering if anyone has experience using drawing tablets on Wayland, and if all works as it should. I checked the digi-mend driver and it supports this tablet and XP-Pen themselves publish a driver on their website, but from a quick search it seems to be X11 based.

Followup: The tablet arrived today and after plugging it in it got recognized and started working immediately! All buttons are mappable in Plasmas system settings, both on the pen and the tablet itself. This is with Fedora kernel 6.11.10-200.fc40.x86_64

[SOLVED] Question about flatpak, nvidia drivers and steam

Edit: So after an exciting evening of uninstalling drivers, rebooting, playing a round of CSGO and starting over, I can report that nothing is broken. I haven't tried much other than a handful of games though. In the end I removed the drivers in batches, uninstalling all versions of a major version together (all 515.*, then 520.*, then 525.* etc).

Of note is that all the drivers I removed were the 32 bit versions, since the 64 bit one updated properly. This is what's left of the drivers, I believe these are all actually needed and I'm not comfortable removing any of them (and even if they're not needed the space savings would be minimal anyway):

A few months ago, when a new Nvidia update came out, usually what I'd do is update then run flatpak uninstall --unused, which would get rid of the older version no problem. As you can see, around driver version 510 this stopped working. If I try to remove them manually with eg. flatpak remove org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32.nvidia-510-68-02, I get this:

Info: applications using the extension org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32.nvidia-510-68-02 branch 1.4:
   com.valvesoftware.Steam
Really remove? [y/n]:

My question is, is Steam actually using these drivers? Are these safe to remove? I'd like to get rid of them since they're bloating my root partition and updating 10 driver versions takes ages.
