Horizon Zero Dawn is to this day the only game I have ever taken the time to listen to/read all the optional little lore drops in the world as I encountered it. Really well done IMO, even if the game is not overall that good, best world building I’ve experienced

Lmfao the mask comes off in some of these. Dredge is woke because “black woman has job in 1900s Europe” 🤣

Caught and clocked 😅

Unfortunately I’m addicted to a game that requires kernel level anti cheat. So I dual boot Fedora and Windows, but pretty much the only thing I use the Windows partition for is the game and that rare application that just works ™️ on Windows

Breaks my fucking heart man…

An ex army friend of mine said he’d be expected to make that shot with iron sights at 300m if he had an M4 after a year of training.

Not to say every backyard marksman is army trained, but it doesn’t sound improbable.

Neocities is treasure trove of personal websites built by people of all ages. Super sick designs. If you’re into replacing your social media doomscrolling with some blog reading get an RSS reader set up and add some sites. PowRSS.com is a nice place to start as an aggregator of feeds and discovery tool

The amount of ppl that don’t do that is really saddening lol

So the proton mail webapp works just fine for you? I don’t know how I could have broken mine… Maybe I’ll try a fresh install or something. Supposedly my librewolf is the latest version

I understand and agree with you in principle but “Tell the mail service to change their application” is such a long-shot step to fix the issue that I simply want to be able to use my browser to access my webmail…

From where I’m standing it’s easier to switch to hardened Firefox than to switch mail providers just to continue to use Librewolf

EDIT: I would love an explanation of wtf the WebCrypto API even is and why you think it’s spyware, though EDIT 2: Proton claims the WebCrypto API is a browser security feature. It’s also developed by Mozilla

EDIT 3: Fixed this by simply forcing an update to the latest version of LibreWolf. Not a browser problem, not a proton mail problem, WebCrypto API is not spyware.

Thing is, proton is already in my exceptions for a bunch of the LibreWolf features…

I have it bypassing resist fingerprinting, I let it save cookies. When I search for peristent storage it just takes me to ‘Cookies and Site Data’ which already has proton mail and other urls excepted…

Does it come default? I had been using librewolf for over 6 months without problems, and haven’t installed any plugins myself

Not sure what that is. My librewolf install is entirely stock except for one homepage plugin called nightTab

I use it on Fedora with GNOME. Its available as a GNOME extension

Not running anything myself but am part of a self hosting discord that swears by Netbird because its basically Tailscale but with a bunch more ease of use features apparently

White people will hold anyone but themselves responsible for Trumps win when they vote overwhelmingly Republican LMAO. They’ll even lie in posts like this

Obviously everything depends on use case. I definitely am a tinkerer and prefer options. I’d never run a jellyfin server off a synology NAS cause… Well cause it can’t transcode very well. So efficiency is less of a concern than processing power.

I get now that my questions was a bit moot, obviously some people will pay a premium for a narrow use case if it brings reliability and ease of use.

I see! Thanks so much for the thoughtful response definitely seems like there’s a use case for people who might be more creatives with a need for storage rather than self-hosting enthusiasts who want to mess around in a homelab.

The prices are still a bit eye watering but you pay for software support for sure.

Is the main appeal of prebuilt NAS cases the aesthetics and the reduction of DIY concerns?

Because they seem to me like overpriced and underpowered computers. Most tech-oriented folks I know have more powerful PCs in a closet somewhere that they could easily convert into a NAS

Edit: some very thoughtful responses thanks y’all! I definitely see the appeal for people who just need something that doesn’t need tinkering or care significantly about power draw and noise.

Its really depressing that all the “resistance” we can offer is to pout and go “BUT THATS ILLEGAL” while our supposed opposition party votes to confirm every nominee and pass every barbaric bill by this admin…
