  • I feel like this is provider agnostic. If you signup to a bunch of different newsletters (or anything else really), at some point your email will get out there.

    Proton has email aliasing via SimpleLogin which I have found to be really good.

    EndeavourOS keeps freezing

    This started today and hasn’t happened before. Initially I thought it was an application from work that was causing issues. I SSHed into the machine and didn’t see anything strange - I used btop.

    I updated the system and rebooted. A few minutes later when I got to the machine to check everything, was frozen again. I hadn’t even logged in.

    I’ve used the eos-sendlog feature to get the logs and it seems like it might be GPU related.

    I was using KDE with X11 when this happened, but I’ve been using that combination for months at this point. Nothing that I’m aware of has changed or been updated recently to possibly cause this issue.

    Update: I’ve done a complete shutdown (turned the PSU off) and rebooted with the LTS kernel. So far so good. It doesn’t seem to be a hardware issue as it worked fine on the live USB.

    Why does my beard grow back faster after shaving?

    I’ve often been told that this isn’t actually true but I can’t help but feel that it does happen. Until recently I hadn’t shaved for about a year, maybe two. Now I feel like it’s growing back quicker than what it did the last time (after shaving on a more regular basis).

    Are there any negatives side effects to using PGP all the time with email?

    More specifically, if I was to attach my public key to every email — even when the recipient doesn’t use PGP.

    My assumption is that “life would carry on” and there would be basically no difference but I’m not entirely sure.

    the process of using PGP for encrypting content (text messages for example) is something I’m only just started understanding after some reading and practicing

    EDIT

    Since a couple of people have mentioned it, my email provider provides E2EE between users but it I want to have E2EE with non-users and via my aliases (SimpleLogin) with custom domains I’ll need PGP

    Is aftershave worth it?

    It’s been a few years since I last shaved my beard. If I don’t get irritated skin after shaving should I still use an aftershave? If so, what do you recommend?

    Are there any differences between hosting a .onion site and a “normal” site?

    Assuming I’ve got a website hosted on GitHub via Cloudflare with a custom domain. How different would it be to host the same site with a .onion address?

    EDIT: I’ve had a few drinks so hopefully this isn’t too bad or at least makes sense.

    How are private front-ends built without APIs?

    I'm referring to projects like redlib or invidious.

    I was thinking about doing something similar for a local second-hand marketplace and got curious. Redlib seems to use token spoofing to get past rate limits and Invidious doesn't even use the official YouTube API.

    The only way I thought of, which would be slow, is to scrape the site (like you would with Beautiful Soup).

    What makes it “Legitimate Interest“?

    How would a company decide that something should be “legitimate interest” vs “consent”?

    EDIT: Definition of "Legitimate Interest", when hovering over the question mark.

    How does legitimate interest work?

    Some vendors are not asking for your consent, but are using your personal data on the basis of their legitimate interest.

    How can I fix this rotation issue?

    I’m using EndeavourOS with KDE.

    The display is correctly oriented when logged in but it doesn’t rotate correctly when I’m logged out.

    EDIT: corrected the post. This happens when logged out, locking the screen has it displayed correctly.

    Parents with bilingual children, how did you do it?

    Although I mention parents specifically in the title, this isn’t just for parents to respond.

    My wife and I are trying to raise our child to be bilingual (English and Portuguese). Currently we’re both speaking a bit of both to our child and when they eventually go to school we’ll speak more Portuguese as they’ll be exposed to English everywhere else.

    Is this a good approach or is there something we can do better?

    Are business cards still a thing?

    Do people still hand out physical business cards at events or is it all digital now?

    i should have asked before ordering 50, lol

    EDIT:

    Thank you for all the replies, I’ve got the answer I need but I’ll add some more information just in case anyone wants to know.

    • I’m based in Europe and not Japan
    • I’m working as a videographer and trying to build a film company
    • I plan on doing more event coverage so I’ll bring them with to quickly hand out my contact details.
    • The card has the following: Busines name, my name, phone number, email, and website.

    Gnome extension on KDE?

    I know the title sounds a little strange but hear me out. The time tracking software I use for work doesn’t work on Wayland, unless I’m using Gnome as my DE. They have an extension that allows it to work in this case. Personally, I don’t enjoy Gnome on my desktop (I use it on my laptop). Is there a way for me to get the functionality that this extension provides on KDE so that I can use Wayland on my desktop as well?

    anti-snap stance is anti-consumer

    cross-posted from: https://lemdro.id/post/9650372

    The title is a quote from Mastodon. I’ve always seen dislike towards snap so I was taken back when I saw this stance. The person who wrote this was referring to Tuxedo Laptops.

    What are your thoughts on this?

    Didn't bother to follow the thread?

    I posted my question here before this particular response from the OP. I asked the question on Lemmy out of interest and wanting to get a wider perspective. I also engaged with the OP on the thread so that I can get their perspective on their stance.

    Gaming vs Regular Distros

    TL;DR: Is there really a performance benefit to a gaming distro over a regular distro? Or is it more of a “this is the least work” to get setup?

    ——

    I run EndeavourOS on my desktop and haven’t had any issues with performance. I just like playing with new things and learning from the experience.

    I’ve seen loads of people recommending Bazzite as a gaming distro for various reasons. It’s gotten to the point that I installed it on a second SSD to do my own testing but I’d still like to see others perspective.

    From my research, there doesn’t seem to be that much performance to be gained (generally speaking). I’ll be testing this on my own hardware but is this generally true?

    I think a big draw (especially for new users) would be that these distros would require very minimal work to get up and running into a game.

    I think the TL;DR at the top best describes my question. I’ve just been thinking about this and haven’t been sure how to express it in a clear manner for ot

    Is it difficult to build a web app for Lemmy?

    Context, I’ve got some web dev experience but it’s all self taught from enjoying it as a hobby. Personally, the design aspect is probably worse for me.

    I’ve been toying with the idea of trying to do something with the Lemmy API (even if it’s never shared publicly) but I’ve seen a handful of people complain about the API, is it really that bad?

    I’d probably use React if I did do something.

    EDIT: This is a prototype design I came up with, I'll play around with the API and see what I can do. I think that it could be a fun project, thanks for all the help!

    Why don't more websites/services offer 2FA?

    I've been going through updating all of my accounts (passwords, 2FA, etc.), and I've noticed that there are a lot of sites that don't offer any form of MFA.

    I can understand smaller services that might not have the bandwidth, but surely larger organisations are able to get this setup?

    Meta AI Intergration - Right to Object

    How do you backup 2FA setup codes/QR codes?

    After everything that has happened with Raivo over the last few days it’s reminded me that I need to go through my accounts with 2FA enabled.

    However, how do others keep things organised? My main 2FA app is Proton Pass but I’ll be adding Ente Auth as a backup alongside my Yubikey. In the past I saved a copy of the QR codes when setting up 2FA but I’d occasionally forget to save new ones.

    Does anyone have a good system for saving either the QR code or setup code (not actually sure what it’s called) for future use?

    EDIT: the code I’m referring to is the initial secret code used to setup the 2FA

    Final Edit: I’ve settled on saving the QR codes into a folder that is setup as a git repo.
