If you’re already using Ubuntu, I don’t think it’s worth it. They’re fairly similar. Then again, I didn’t even get to install Ubuntu in the first place, the installer kept crashing.

Unless the laptop is a potato and you don’t have a better computer, you can try Mint, or any other distro in a VM to see for yourself.

And welcome to Linux. If someone recommends you Arch Linux, Gentoo or LFS as other newbie-friendly option, it’s a joke.

Unless they’re simultaneously connected you could share the same private key in all of the configs.

Except the 5 device limit. With OVPN it means 5 connected devices, with WG it means 5 registered public keys.

Say you use the official Mullvad app and also setup some 3rd party WG client on your phone. That’s now taking up 2 devices. Or perhaps you do have 6 devices, but you never have more than 2 of them running at once. With WG, that’s still 6 devices regardless of them being connected or not, while with OVPN it will indeed be just 2 devices.

When you live with someone else who insists on you putting together and decorating the Christmas tree and gets mad at you when you won’t do it just for you to have to repack all that piece of shit into boxes mid-January.

Only if others require me to participate in that. I don’t like it myself.

So what happens to already existing longer threads upon update?

🙄

^{(That’s appreaciation.)}

Oh god, this is an official thing…

Anyway, what’s the expectation if you disable shooting in a shooting game? So much fun, I could… run around and stuff.

Chat, should I do it?

See, if you’re already referring to others as “chat”, it probably means you should have deleted it sooner.

I too have no idea what this is about. I never used tailscale, and I have no idea what immich is.

But perhaps your problem is that the app expects to be on the root? Perhaps that could be a problem. Can you instead do another sub-domain level like immich.pcname.tail$$$$$.ts.net? Or does the app (immich) allow you to set URL root?

Anyway, seems that may indeed be the issue, and also that tailscale cannot do those sub-domains as I thought based on the discussion I found. It seems this is the same issue: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/discussions/1679

And someone probably has a solution: https://gist.github.com/aveexy/4b2b22b2198636b0a91c7c142ec11b37

Again, I have no idea what Immich even is in the first place, Tailscale, I just know it exists. Consider me about as useful as AI, I just did some googling, with only prior info being that I had to set base URL in both kiwix-serve and Navidrome for them to work properly under a directory or whatever the part after slash is called.

Just look at where their servers are.

Kind of… al around the place? What do you mean?

Also, in the mail you don’t send the account number, just a payment token. So the postman won’t be stealing your account, just your cash at most.

Vouchers are probably the safest, but I actually like sending mail, and this is basically my only opportunity to do so nowadays.

Well, yeah, because most apps depend on Google services.

Maybe they could rather fix AOSP. Based on that recent LTT video Google doesn’t really give a fuck about it anymore.

I just recently bought 2 phones (one returned, other isn’t far from that), one with A14 the other with A13. Changing minimum width to >600dp (to simulate a tablet (larger screen) and trigger tablet mode) has very wild results now. I mean like overlapping icons in notification shade, completely non-functional 3 button navigation, app tray squished to less than width of 1 icon (completely unusable), icons getting off-screen, gesture navigation occasionally not working either, notification shade icons and notifications offset from their background (just a visual problem) and a lot of wasted space everywhere.

Sure, it’s in developer settings, but so far whenever I did something to this in up to Android 11 including, the phone just beautifully adjusted to this and everything suddenly made more sense on a large screen.
Though maybe I was just lucky?

I am currently typing this on an old Moto G5s Plus (2017) with the now discontinued PixelExperience (11) ROM. My last bug-free Android experience. I can even route hotspot over a VPN, how cool is that.

I would stop. At that point it’s not really a donation, but a payment. I don’t know how much of that donation to consider a “payment”.

Similarly I didn’t get the Tor Project stickers. I don’t know how much the stickers, envelope and postage cost them, thus I couldn’t determine the amount that is “donation”. As such, I opted not to take them. Just the same with Fediverse Canvas 2024 stickers. Some amount of that has went for Canvas development, but how much I don’t know. Once again I opted for donation only.
I’d like them in both cases. Perhaps $3 (excl. shipping) per sticker is still OK to consider a purchase, but $25 for a few stickers, meh.

Anyway, my point is, if for the donation I am provided exclusive products or services and I either don’t know their cost (to subtract from donation amount) or don’t have the choice to opt out from being provided the services/products, I won’t donate at all.

But even outside of that, it wouldn’t pass. For me, one requirement for donating is that whatever group I am donating to provides everyone the same service no matter if you pay them or not. Otherwise I can’t really consider it a donation, and I don’t have the money to pay.

You mean OTA TV? I don’t even watch sports, the rest has 10 minute advertisements. And considering it’s digital, I don’t find it interesting at all. Yes, a weird reason, but anyway.

OK, it seems I can bring my current music library. I experimented with it a bit now, and I guess I could get used to 12kbps Opus or 12.65kbps AMR-WB (they sound comparable). It kinda sounds like off-tuned FM radio, not the much more awful artifacts of MP3 or AAC.

Although… can I bring a cassette tape player? It’s analog, so tapes won’t fall under this limit. Then I could possibly digitize it. Similarly with movies on film. I don’t know what equipment I can take though. Movies on film, photos on paper, books on paper, music on tapes, hmmm… I guess that would be some games then. What counts under the media though? Just the games themselves, emulation software, entire OS?

How are you using it remotely? VNC?

Perhaps the server config started defaulting to XFCE. Maybe what happened is entire XFCE DE got marked as a dependency, installed during update, and then when some config defaulting to XFCE thanks to this became valid, you ended up here.

If it’s VNC, what do you have in ~/.vnc/xstartup? Maybe a line like xfce4-session &?

And by the same user.

This dad is patient with his jokes.

Not Mullvad’s fault, they’re just on some of the used blocklists. Not really much you can do about it besides finding a not yet blocked servers.
