Performance on opnsense is fine for anything you’ll be doing at home, so I wouldn’t factor that into your choice.

Features on opnsense are probably better, just due to all the packages you can install.

Do you prefer being 100% in a CLI all the time? If not I’d say opnsense, the GUI certainly makes things a lot easier when you’re not fully familiar with something and spending every day interacting with it.

This really seems like it’s just a way to get DRM onto printers to stop people from printing replacement parts or ‘copyrighted’ materials.

For DNS? It’s an alternative for that, but not for the huge amount of other services Cloudflare provides.

Yes that’s standard, as far as I know every x86 PC updates the BIOS this way.

Meshtastic (and Meshcore) use LoRa radios so require extra hardware, but as a result have much longer range than Bluetooth.

I could probably backup most of my important data to a flash drive but I’d rather not

You absolutely need to have working backups in place, otherwise your data is at risk.

I’m always curious about youtube music apps, it seems like there are so many of them everywhere, even f-droid has like 20+ clients listed that all look very similar.

Maybe just a fun app to try making so a lot of people do it?

Firefox and forks have supported webusb for awhile now, so I think 8bitdo just needs to update their website.

Firefox supports webusb too so I think their app is just out of date maybe…

Cryptomator + some cloud storage is the only thing that comes to mind that’s easy to use and cross-platform.

Either that or rclone + crypt, but that’s a bit more of a hassle.

Yeah I don’t understand why it isn’t, or maybe it is but getting anyone to do anything is impossible.

I would imagine it’s due to windows using more power saving modes that cause the coil whine when active, but if linux solves it then might as well keep using it!

It mimics discord, so functional voice rooms with screen sharing, text channels, and so on…

You don’t technically need to back up the PBS server as there’s not much there other than a basic config. As far as the backup data itself, you can mirror to another PBS server or I think it supports S3 for offsite storage.

I’ve never heard of 3d printed guns being involved in crimes or even really heard of them much at all.

This is just another way to remove peoples rights.

Depends if the game set some expectation for a 10 hour long campaign or not I’d say.

A browser is one example, what’s the alternative to that other than sticking it inside some sandbox or something?

Not supporting a 3+ year old Intel wifi chipset out of the box is kind of wild though, that’s a super standard part.

Part of that is Linux doesn’t really have backwards compatibility as I understand it. When you update and some libraries get updated, the old versions are just… gone. So any application that relied on those will no longer function until it’s also updated.

You also generally can’t even install the old version of the libraries, because the name is the same across versions so having multiple versions installed isn’t possible.

Windows does have really good backwards compatibility, which carries over to proton since it’s mimicking windows APIs and libraries.

This is basically what Flatpak and AppImage solve isn’t it? They bundle everything needed to run the app along with it.
