I wrote a blog some time ago why selfhosting email sucks

https://nx2.site/email-selfhosting

If you just want the email server for only you and your friends, or for internal messages, selfhosting email can be fun, but your main email should probably not be selfhosted.

I bought a pair of Adidas sneakers (no clue thrle name). They looked like the ultra boost series but without the special™ shoe sole (I think they are no longer being produced).

I bought them in 2012, and wore them in death valley, in the snow in Slovakia, as running shoes in the Forrest and more or less daily for ~8 years. And they still hold up.

Now the Ultra boost Adidas are crooked after ½ year.

Ah okay! That's neat. Especially for the less technically inclined

I don't get it. Was that not a thing already?

I've had twitch lag in VLC, but work flawlessly in MPV

The main reason I started using Linux is because I wanted to use tiling window managers. Maybe take a look at some of those. It's the same idea as Fancy zones just cranked up to 100

Unfortunately it seems to suffer from the same problems that other custom ROMs like GrapheneOS have these days. The same goes for if you root your stock OS. Like all the normal Android stuff works (even better) but as soon as you want to for example use the tap-payment features or the ID stuff from your government it doesn't work. Also good luck trying to use for example Samsung smartwatches

I know for a fact that USB-c is about 1.5× mirco-b.

Since USB A is not a slave connector that are no comparable boards on adafruit. So I asked Bing AI:

According to the web search results, the cost of a USB-C connector on a motherboard depends on various factors, such as the manufacturer, the chipset, the data standard, and the features of the motherboard. However, based on some examples of motherboards with USB-C ports, the price difference between USB-C and USB-A connectors with the same speed (USB 2.0) is not very significant. For instance, the ASRock B550M-ITX/ac motherboard has one USB-C port and four USB-A ports, all with USB 2.0 speed, and costs around $120. The [ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0] motherboard has six USB-A ports, all with USB 2.0 speed, and costs around $70. The difference in price between these two motherboards is $50, but this is not only due to the USB-C connector, but also to other factors such as the chipset, the memory slots, the audio codec, and so on. Therefore, it is hard to estimate the exact cost of a USB-C connector on a motherboard with USB 2.0 speed, but it is likely to be less than $10.

Those are just voice replacements

It is. BlueSky or for short BS (ha!) just took the open standard and closed it again!

You mean compile Gentoo

I've got Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Phantom Liberty to run smoothly on Linux with Ray Tracing with NVIDIA from Gog Galaxy. I wrote a quick tutorial on how to do it:
