Should have let the decryption be fully external, and not just needing the keys

Alright, will consider it, thanks for the recommendation!

That's a good point. I've considered it before, but always struggle with coming up with a domain name. Also, with respect to tracking a personal domain means that anyone can check the registrar information to find full name, address etc?

Recently moved to protonmail. The setup was fairly easy, with proton copying all the mails over and setting up forwarding from gmail. I've started to gradually change accounts over. Decided to subscribe as well, even though could manage without.

Same. Haven't had the need for full blown VMs at all. Passing through the iGPU for transcoding took a bit of time to figure out, but works great. I do have an Arch LXC container for some apps without a deb repository, though, to keep them updated through AUR.

Did you read my comment? They ship with libraries to unify distribution across distros

For sure, but just as an example I tried starting Black Mesa on steam yesterday, which has a native release, but had to tinker quite a bit to get it working. Unfortunately I think it's often the case that the native releases gets forgotten and lags behind the windows/proton releases

Electric bikes is where it's at. Cities has to be built with bikes in mind though

Not with disputed territory afaik

Yes, their first attempt used load order overrides and search patch patching. Now, it uses linux containers to ship an isolated environment. Think of it as more similar to docker (or LXC/LXD). That said, I haven't used it myself to so cannot comment on how difficult it is to use. Most people here are advocating for them permitting proton use without necessarily supporting it officially though. Which can easily be done by changing an option in EAC.

There is a version of the PG Riptide board with a vertical M.2 E-key slot for wifi (under the IO shield). Unfortunately the availability of the wifi version is quite poor.

Would it be feasible to add the m.2 slot to the non-wifi version. Looks like the non-wifi version lacks the metal holder and probably also the board socket. I was thinking it might be possible to solder a compatible E-key header on the board and buy a suitable holder/bracket.

Haven't found a good picture of the location of the wifi card though, as it's behind the IO shield. Probably an idiotic idea though.

Edit: went for the MSI B650m-A WiFi instead. First PCIe slot is a bit lower than the others, giving more space between gpu and cpu/psu. Additionally it comes with USB 3.2 gen2 front I/O, whereas the Asrock has gen 1 only

So after some research I splurged for a Demeyere Proline 7-ply frying pan. Unfortunately, upon trying it with my induction stove it gave an error message saying that the pan was incompatible. My internet research tells me that it could be due to the copper core of the Demeyre causing a high current draw. Another reason could be that the pan is too large (28cm), but I doubt that.

I guess I will have to try another pan to see if it works. I don't know what to look for though in terms of more compatibility though.

I was looking forward to a buy-it-for-life stainless steel pan. I can also replace the IKEA Folklig induction top with something better, but obviously not my first choice.

Any general tips would be appreciated :-)
