Within two years of Gmail going viral people were screaming from the tops of any soap box, tree and mountain You are the product!! but as these things always go, very few people paid attention.

It’s kinda janky but I’ve been running HoloISO on my gaming rig for over a year and it was mostly pain free. To be clear I don’t use that system for much more than gaming but recreational browsing and music/movies etc as well. It’s fine.
Recent decisions by the maintainer to make that distro immutable have confused me and I’m thinking about switching to Endeavor. I was historically a Debian user. This was my first experience with Arch (btw) so I’d kinda like to get to know it a bit before we introduce thicker weeds and deeper rabbit holes thanks very much bye.
You might like Commento which is FOSS. You can self-host it (or fire it onto a free or low cost cloud host), and fun. It’s more like a Lemmy/reddit format (comment up/down votes can be enabled) than masto but maybe you’ll enjoy it.
Users can comment anonymously or you can enable basic verification steps. Decent moderation for if spam bots find you. Etc.
ETA I used to host my instance on Heroku’s free tier and it was more than enough for what little traffic was coming to my site.
+1 for Espanso. Great tool, use it every day.
No worries. I do know that Windscribe has both CLI as well at custom configs that you can plug into router clients (i.e. wireguard, openvpn, etc), and they also offer residential IPs.
Happy VPNing!
Those IPs eventually end up on block lists as users do dumb things with them. You could definitely benefit from auto cycling through them but it’s still going to be luck of the draw, ultimately. Normally you’ll get a different IP each time you connect, even to the same location/server so if your VPN client has a CLI component, even a basic one, you could write a simple script to tell it to ‘disconnect’ and then ‘connect’ periodically, for instance.
Depending on which VPN client you’re using on the router, that would be the simplest approach to explore imo.
ETA you could also explore getting a residential IP from your VPN provider if they offer that. It’s a little more expensive but they don’t end up on block lists as much. Less hassle.
I use syncthing for personal and work, and it’s great. Having said that I’ve found it struggles with versioning i.e. editing a document from multiple devices.
Look into something like Standard Notes for cross platform markdown editing. It’s e2e encrypted, works great, the dev is very responsive. Ymmv but I really like it, have it on every device I own and use it daily.
I’ve also just used a private git repo for editing docs from multiple devices. Once you get it set up it’s effortless, and most ide’s are extremely fun to use as text editors.
OP is it the 7700 non-x 65w tdp version? Asking because I’m thinking about upgrading my CPU from 5600x to the 7700non-x and have the same gpu. I was actually wondering how throwing that integrated graphics into the mix would work so thanks for asking this and looking forward to your findings if you don’t mind posting however you end up solving this.
Dope, thank you for posting. Been using 'Core CTRL' for quite awhile but Imma give this a rip. For some reason the former tool never could control the fan curve for my GPU (all the other fans in the box worked fine with it) so this might be profit.
fml I've got a debian build on what used to be my daily driver until I somehow managed to completely eff the kernel and headers. This was my first time using LVM and I still don't know how, but the last time I updated the kernel and headers they installed to not my user-space of choice but to the parent encrypted volume. Not realizing what I had done wrong I then proceeded to autoremove
and next reboot… bricked.
Have tried multiple ways to get it back, nothing profitable yet. At least I can still access the file system and have taken everything off that I wanted. Haven't gotten around to format/reinstall. Won't be carelessly working with kernels again that's for sure.
I've run UBO and Privacy Badger side by side for years. There's no harm in having both, as UBO has lots of great features besides tracker blocking (I use the element zapper/blocker almost daily, for instance). They work well together.
The fingerprint reader on mine doesn't work either. I've read up on solutions for that regards Debian but I haven't tried any yet. I have a yubikey and that works fine as an extra layer of login security.
I have a lenovo thinkbook (cheapy thinkpad) for work with AMD chip and gpu. It wasn't one of their models certified for linux but everything runs flawlessly for a lean debian build for me. I've had linux on several laptops and this is my second machine with AMD chips, and I'll say that what you hear is true; There are way more, and better, drivers available for AMD if you go with linux.
My 2 cents.
Feels on that, I know it's not a one liner. I suppose I asked here because I was looking for a possible open source/community made solution (several devs working on and refining it collectively). As it happens one of the other commenters linked to pretty much this type of solution i.e. Haven which looks dope AF and I'm a take it for a spin shortly.
Thank you. I'll look it up!
Damn, thank you so much!
Idk… Lots of devs I work with write software for mobile devices all the time. I could've worded it better I guess: I'm not a dev. 🤷♀️
Obligatory Bunsenlabs plug. Nice light Debian based distro with no DE. It cleverly uses openbox wm and tint2 and some other tricks to make it feel like you have one though.
Confirm it runs awesome on potatoes.
