It works fine with Syncthing so long as you only ever have the database open on one device at a time.

No, you can copy wine prefixes around all you want. You may have to adjust the graphics settings in the games though.
X11 isn’t secure and it can’t be fixed apparently
Which is why so much work has been going into Wayland, which will replace X11.
I see an LG WH14NS40 on amazon for $55 US that will write triple layer discs. Where are you finding $130 drives?
Blurays will be much more reliable and will write much faster than cheap flash drives. A double layer disc only holds 46.5 GiB though and triple layer discs are still somewhat expensive.
Skyrim and Fallout 4 really need a CPU with very good single threaded performance. If you have a lot of cores, make sure nothing is running in the background so you can get a higher boost speed on the cores the game is using.
I’ve never had any issues with the speed or storage capacity of the SIM card in any of my phones.
What benefit will the average user see from a faster SIM card?
It doesn’t let me select more than 1 file to add.
It’s easier to type a command than it is to add files to Handbrake one at a time. I can also run multiple encodes simultaneously. It takes 2-4 to max out my CPU depending on the codec and resolution.
Handbrake is good for a few files, but I still prefer ffmpeg when doing a large batch.
They need to mandate that the laptop USB C connectors be located on a user replaceable daughterboard. They are easy to break and hard to replace. Sending a motherboard to the landfill because of a broken charge connector should be unacceptable.
You can use the --download-sections
parameter to specify a time range. --download-sections "*0-600"
would download the first 600 seconds to the nearest keyframe. To make it exact, you would have to re-encode the video after downloading it.
For making the thumbnail square, you will probably have to write a script to extract it, crop it, and re-insert it.
It sounds like he wants everything done server side like they did in the mid 90’s. It’s certainly possible, but it won’t result in a very good user experience. The whole page would have to reload to change anything on it.
Just make sure the VPS will shut down if the bandwidth is exceeded rather than giving you a big overage charge.
It looks like they are trying to compete with fedex on how much damage they can do to your package.
I typically look for 1080p X265 encodes around 2-4 mbps to save disk space. I will download higher bitrates for anything with a lot of film grain since it will get very blocky at lower bitrates.
I can’t tell much difference between 1080p and 4K unless I’m very close to a large screen. Also, most 4K files are HDR and I don’t have anything that supports HDR.
They will usually block port 25 so you can’t run a mail server. It’s unusual for an ISP to block everything unless you are on CGNAT.
With Wayland, programs still can’t restore their window position or size. It sure would be nice if they could get basic functionality working.
If your ISP provides IPv6, set that up. Everything will have a globally routed address, so your domains will work from your LAN and the internet. If you don’t have IPv6 available, get a free tunnel from Hurricane Electric.
Lutris uses separate prefixes and doesn’t do any deduplication. You will need a separate tool for that or just use a filesystem like btrfs that supports deduplication.
I’ve never used bottles, so I don’t know how it handles deduplication.
