For Synology you can use their software to sync down a copy of your Google Drive:

Once the data is synced you can then remove the connection to the Google Drive.


Are you running the game through Steam or through Heroic Games Launcher? (Or lutris or bottles?)
Is your launcher of choice a flatpak install or native?
Which Proton version? The protondb seems to have multiple people running Cachyos saying they ran it succesfully with proton-cachyos-10 versions.
If you launch the game with PROTON_LOG=1 %command% you get logs to check through

I use Fossify Calendar and Fossify Contacts together with DAVx5.
I use FairEmail for IMAP/SMTP.
All found on F-Droid.
If you decide you wanna go the easy route there are quiet 5V fans out there
https://www.noctua.at/en/products/nf-f12-5v-pwm
pi-noctua-pwm
Controls a 4-pin (PWM) 5V Noctua fan using a Raspberry Pi 5’s GPIO pins. The fan speed is automatically adjusted based on the temperature readings from an NVMe drive, making it ideal for cooling solutions like the Pimoroni NVMe Base.


I default to Lutris for my offline installers and for games that isn’t one click installs when trying them in heroic games launcher.
For most games that one click install in heroic has been working fine fthough.


Easiest way to install gog games would be heroic games launcher imo
edit: And so says their guide


Section 9 - The Engineering Mindset was an interesting part of the article.
edit: Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2009
This is an ooold paper
The proportion of engineers who declare themselves to be on the right of the political spectrum is greater than in any other disciplinary group: 57.6 % of them are either conservative or strongly conservative, as compared to 51.1 % of economists, 42.5 % of doctors and 33.5 % of scientists, 21.4 % of those in the humanities, and 18.6 % of the social scientists, the least right-wing of all disciplinary groups.
[…]
The Carnegie survey reveals an even more surprising fact, hitherto unnoticed, that strengthens the suspicion that the engineers’ mindset may play a part in their proneness not only to radicalise to the right of the political spectrum, but do so with a religious slant: engineers turn out to be by far the most religious group of all academics – 66.5 %, followed again by 61.7 % in economics, 49.9 % in sciences, 48.8 % of social scientists, 46.3 % of doctors and 44.1 % of lawyers.
[…]
One could question whether this mindset is unique to academic engineers. The answer is likely to be negative: similar results are found on the political and religious opinions of students, both for “un-socialised” beginners in the first four semesters and more advanced ones.
[…]
Still, one could further object, the phenomenon could be uniquely American. Some old evidence suggests that at least the right-wing bias occurs in the Middle East: a 1948 survey of 3,890 Cairo University students recorded the highest sympathies for fascist ideology among engineering students (Botman Reference Botman1984, p. 70). A survey of Canadian professors also found that engineers are the least liberal of all (Nakhaie and Brym Reference Nakhaie and Brym1999).Unfortunately, non-US data that would allow us to combine political and religious attitudes are of much lesser quality.
[…]
The results from 2,816 cases in 16 mostly Western countries show that engineers were not more religious than other graduates and only insignificantly to the right of them. However, the combination of the two characteristics occurred far more often among engineers than the null hypothesis of non-correlation would predict – the only professional category in which this happened. Whereas based on individual scores on religiousness and right-wing attitudes we expected 9.4 % of engineers to share both attributes, 13.9 %, actually did (significant at 0.05).


I wish more would use self hosted solutions like Forgejo (or a gitweb if they don’t need a complex system) and simply mirror their projects on codeberg and github for the exposure.
Gentoo apparently do it that way already:

Ah yeah - always a good idea to verify support on the motherboard. I think AMD mbs are usually better on the bifurcation front than Intel ones.
The Startech card I linked is backwards compatible with PCIe 3.0 M.2 NVMe cards, they mention that they’ve tested with Samsung 970 EVO for example, so you can still fill it up with older, cooler M.2 cards even if it supports PCIe 4.0.


An M.2 PCIe card can make most old computers into a good SSD NAS.

When nslookup google.com from a laptop on this LAN, it returns Server: 10.2.0.1 Address: 10.2.0.1#53
nonauthoritative answer: google.com with ip information repeated.
I don’t under stand this return as it’s an ip outside my lan net and dhcp provisioning.
I’m unclear on what you’re confused about regarding the above quote. Here comes an explanation of nslookup.
The command is nslookup <domain> <dns-server> and if dns-server is empty it uses your default. F.e.:
***@fedoragaming:~$ nslookup www.google.com 8.8.8.8
The response starts by telling you which <dns-server> it used for the lookup and which address including port was used:
Server: 8.8.8.8
Address: 8.8.8.8#53
It then gives you the answer on where to find the <domain>, once for ipv4 and once for ipv6:
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.google.com
Address: 142.251.142.228
Name: www.google.com
Address: 2a00:1450:400f:807::2004
edit: I think I understand your question a bit better now. To check which dns-server you’re using do a “cat /etc/resolve.conf”
If you run a distro with systemd then use the command “resolvectl status”


I mean they have added a chatbot to their website and I’m sure they have replaced overseas first line support in many products with chatbots as well to encourage their customers to give up on getting support (and ensure that the customers that prevails and get sent to a human coworker are sufficiently pissed off).


“They ruthlessly cut costs, R&D, and employee benefits and then replace existing employees with overseas contractors. Innovation and growth take a back seat to sheer profitability.”
This is the operating manual that explains why IgniteTech’s much-publicized AI purge feels more like a familiar private-equity play.
[…]
IgniteTech is owned by ESW. For anyone who’s watched the ESW orbit, that vagueness is not accidental. ESW’s playbook, summarized in a long explanatory dossier that has circulated inside the industry, is blunt: buy distressed software, strip costs, move work to an hourly contractor model through a unit like Crossover (which has been described in Forbes as a “global software sweatshop”), and squeeze recurring revenue out of an existing customer base rather than invest in new products.


I got Outer Worlds with all dlcs included, that’s the only game I’ve installed and played from my EGS collection. I think I got Control there too, which I’ve been curious about.
Here’s a couple of articles regarding the director.

I think you may be right of the initial law not including same-sex relatives, but when I checked Sweden (the third country together with Ireland and Germany to allow same-sex incest) the law that includes the part about incestuous sex has been updated in 2022 without changing the wording.
The swedish law only makes vaginal sex illegal btw, so in Sweden it’s okay for John to fuck his sister too, but only in the ass?


Makes more sense if you’re simply trying to avoid offspring from close relatives. John fucking his brother won’t result in that after all.
All you gotta do is tick the box when you set it up.
