Why are all the Lenovo ThinkPads either like $500-600 or like $2000?

Then the Framework Laptop 13 Pro might be for you, but it's quite expensive.
Though it's repairable nature and easy upgradeability (you can buy a new motherboard when you want to upgrade your CPU, while keeping the same chassis e.g.) might save you some money in the long run

Still a proprietary black box you shouldn't trust and chromium based so you reinforce the chromium monopoly

How to get push notifications in a degoogled phone?
Most libre applications implement their own websockets for this. EDIT: some propriety spyware like WhatsApp use those too, can confirm myself, as I unfortunately have to use it on my GrapheneOS owner profile (which ofc doesn't have the sandboxed GPlay services installed; I could technically use it on my profile for personal proprietary apps, but it would be a major pita) ENDEDIT
(unfortunately Proton uses only Google FCM in most of their apps and doesn't publish them on F-Droid or Accrescent)
However, those can take a strain on your battery since every websocket maintains it's own connection.
This is where UnifiedPush in combination with either nfty or Sunup comes in
(EDIT: I use ntfy myself, also Sunup seems to be quite new, so it might come with some quirks; EDITEND there is also a plugin for your own Nextcloud)
Since Unifiedpush maintains only one connection for every app using it, this takes quite a bit less charge to upkeep
(it's explained quite well on their website, which is hyperlinked)
If you are looking for Unifiedpush support on Signal: Molly is a hardened fork of the client and does support it through Mollysocket
EDIT: If you use Telegram there is Mercurygram. As for Matrix clients, I use Element and Schildichat. All these support UnifiedPush

Baldur's Gate 3 gets a Native Linux version to improve it on Steam Deck
Title should have something like "Steam Deck only version" in it IMO.
This is not a general Linux version and will only download on a Steam Deck, not a generic Linux PC, as per my reading of the article

CISA Warns of Linux Kernel Use-After-Free Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks to Deploy Ransomware

Granted, I was mostly shit posting. But in all seriousness: wouldn't Rust prevent that kind of exploit by inherent design?
Due to Rust’s ownership semantics, when we free a value, we relinquish ownership on it, which means subsequent attempts to use the value are no longer valid.

Will kernel-level anti-cheat ever work on linux?
Every IT-literate person fights kernel-lvl malware disguising as games with everything they got.
Since Linux has a high percentage of those, I hope those "solutions" will never spread

Fedora 42 installer defaults to btrfs? What's everyone's opinion or experience on that?
On Fedora, Btrfs has been the default for years now iirc. It's modern and rock solid too (as long as you avoid Raid 5/6) and has some features I can't live without nowadays:

Just use Librewolf on desktop, Mull on your phone and be done with it
also I'd recommend Adnauseam instead of ublock. It's based on ublock but clicks on ads inseatd of blocking them.
Basically a form of protest against surveillance capitalism and obfuscation against it's methods.

Firefox has moved onto Github
Bc this seems to be a crosspost, imma cross-comment:
I get wanting to phase out Mercurial in favour of git. But why did they have to choose Github T_T
Ideally they would have just hosted a their own Forgejo instance (heck, a Gitlab one would have been better too FFS). Even just using Codeberg and donating would have been better
The for-profit side of Mozilla seems to have succeeded in purging most of the principles Mozilla used to have (IK they have been eroding over the years and sometimes been too "pragmatic", this is just the cherry on top of a long series of shitpiles)
If Mozilla actually stood for a free/libre future they'd push Forgejo to the lvl they need it to be (if it already isn't capable of all that stuff. Haven't rly interacted much with it). Since they will still keep the CI/CD on Mercurial for now, there is even less valid reasons for using Github...
