I don’t think you own your steam games.

Haha no, it was just the wrong waste size.
Linux is just all around snappier for me than windows is. I never have to wait, but on windows there are always delays opening windows and for some reason it will keep trying to generate thumbnails.
I really hate using windows. I’m a worse worker because of it. I’m just waiting for the m3 Macs to switch.
Sadly, my work stuff does not work on Linux. So I have a second computer for most of my work.
As Navi: “Hey listen”
When I was a kid someone told me my pants were tight and i thanked them.
Not until a few days later I realized they were bring literal and went out to buy new pants. I over compensated and got pants that were way to big.
I think their point is you could have spent a lot less.
I would still not recommend it. If the drive fails and data is lost or corrupted it could also be lost or corrupted on the other drive.
It would really be better to use backup software to save your data. Also depending on how the drive is used, it may put less wear on the second drive if you use a backup application.
Don’t use raid for backing up use a backup program instead. I’d recommend vorta or kopia.
I use ext4 for my boot drive as that’s what Linux mint defaults to.
I do not do raids and use btrfs on my other drives.
You can turn on compression on write with btrfs which may reduce the amount of data being read and written to your drive which could further reduce its lifespan.
But you shouldn’t expect the drives to last 10 years.
They might, but don’t expect it and have a backup of whatever is important. Ideally you should have a local backup and a cloud based backup or at least an offsite backup somewhere else.
But can they be sure the nsa is not watching?
I did not consider that. I am surprised that any government even allows Windows to be used.
Once the crease is gone in the middle…
Once the price drops, I’d love to have a phone that unfolds into a tablet, and can then be docked to a monitor and run a full desktop OS.
All that tech is here with the galaxy flip, but the desktop OS, I’ve read is still lacking.
Thanks, office 365 doesn’t even work.
I’m in the process of converting the files so I’m it dependent on office, but it’s hundreds of files and it needs to be done manually.
Microsoft office on Linux soon, I hope.
I know there are alternatives but my files do not work with them. I use it professionally and truly need Microsoft office… sadly.
I don’t know if anything will come of it. The proton tool is only to let game devs run their game on Mac hardware to evaluate performance.
They are not allowed to sell games using this tech, they need to make a native port of the game.
I think the real solution would be to let them sell their games using this tool. It worked very well for linux, and apple has plenty of money to put into something like this. A lot more than valve does.
Oh yeah, I misread that as monthly. Thanks for the heads up. I thought 10 a month felt a little steep.
Wow! Thanks it’s really great. It says that syncing is a paid feature but since I’m using jellyfin it still syncs.
This is really great. If it were not a subscription, I would have paid for this app. I don’t really care for the pro features, but the standard app is really nice.
What OS are you running? If plex works on it and it’s Linux, then Jellyfin should work just fine.
If you are on iOS the client is not nearly as good, but you should use Swiftfin. Instead of the default one.
Can you run plex as a server on the shield?
I’m not really familiar with that device. Are you running android on it or Linux?
while I do not know anything about torrenting. “mullvad” is a highly recommended vpn providers with a strong emphasis on privacy.
