Torrents?

With Proton Unlimited you have access to SimpleLogin as well.

The storage space is shared with Proton Drive

Is that was he is claiming though? I read it as spending effort to get people to follow him there, i.e. posting and engaging on the platform to increase his visibility and number of followers there, when he could spend that effort doing it elsewhere / doing something else.

Jellyfin is also useful for music collection. I tried both it and Navidrome to start with, and ended up only using Jellyfin.

woah there pardner!

I have not fully understood the meaning or significance of these news and the content of this article. I have a Tuxedo laptop, and for now I am happy with Tuxedo OS. But I am of course interested in the ability to change distro at some point.

Am I understanding it correctly that I will have a very hard time doing so without patching the kernel myself to ensure proper hardware support? And even then it will be difficult?

Thanks! I was trying to implement this, and was trying to figure out how to pass all the arguments! This worked for me! I got some other errors, but they don’t seem related to this, so now to find out what they are all about 😅

How does this deal with any flags passed?

Yeah, I tried this, and it works from my session, but I still got the same error from trying to run the program. I figured it was because it is called outside the bash session so the run commands have not been run, but is that perhaps not true?

It is not my package, but I could of course go ahead and change the source code directly to handle this. But I’d prefer a solution that would persist through updates.

I use Fluent Reader Lite. Fits my established workflow of consuming RSS-feeds well.

Agreed. I recently did this (first time making a torrent-file) to transfer a set of 45 min videos to a friend, and will probably prefer this way of doing it in the future.

What are you looking for in a host?

Hm, after the initial upload, it shouldn’t really generate much traffic if I can only manage to upload the diff, so it might not be much of an issue for me. I am not yet really familiar with tools like rsync and rclone, and also don’t know how the changes are stored in the Borg repo (e.g. if I move a 1 GB file from one folder to another, does that get picked up as a 1 GB change by the syncing tools?), so I would need to do some more research to see if that would be achievable.

Hetzner also looks nicely priced, but it would’ve been nice if I could choose an even cheaper tier with less storage, as 1 TB is quite overkill for this particular use case. I could of course use it to backup other things.

Learn Linux TV is number one for me - his Linux Crash Course has been an immense help in getting started using Linux for me.

Not a requirement that it is E2EE, as the Borg repo is already encrypted. Guess my knowledge of these services is biased towards E2EE from previous research for use cases where that was a requirement.

Thanks for the tip, hadn’t hard about Backblaze before. Very reasonable pricing. Would a good strategy then be to schedule rclone to have it synced, or are there other ways that would be better?

Cool, I’ll check it out. I am not experiencing any issues with Fluent Reader with my use case though.

I have been using this combined with Fluent Reader Lite for Android and a self-hosted FreshRSS-server to sync my feeds. Just recently found a workflow that works well for me: I will browse my feeds on my phone once in a while (very productive bathroom breaks…), showing only unread stories. I star any story I want to read later, mark the rest as read. With Fluent Reader on Linux set to only show starred, and I can then pick and choose whatever story I want to read from there on a bigger screen. Whenever I go some days without checking, I will just mark all spammy news outlets as read without checking the 400 unread stories.

I have an InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen 7, with the RTX 3050 Ti laptop, 2x2TB SSD, Intel i7-12700H and I believe also a 53 Wh battery (did not go for the battery edition with increased capacity, but instead the storage edition).

Even when using the integrated Intel GPU, the battery life is quite bad. With any kind of browser activity, I get about 2-2.5 hours. If I only do reading in Zotero with dark mode, I get up to 5 hours. For my use case, it is fine, but I could not have used this if I was dependent on working with no access to a power outlet.

Otherwise I am quite happy with Tuxedo though, and their support is usually very good. I hope they will succeed long term if they can also continue to improve on their products.
