Learning an entire new layout isn’t as hard as it sounds. I just went cold turkey one day and changed all my devices over to Dvorak and it took me about a week to be comfortable and maybe after a month I was faster than I was on QWERTY. It’s so much faster learning to type once you’re already fast at another layout.

Yeah, just make sure you read up on the study material and understand it all well enough. I believe they hold interviews during the weekends and the wait times vary throughout the weekend but for me I had to wait about 3 or 4 hours before getting an interview.

OPS is pretty easy to get into. The wait times for interviews can be long, but much much better than RED. The actual interview is pretty easy too imo. Just make sure to read through the interview prep.

This would depend on the distro you use. Most distros will require you to enable a non-free repository before you can install anything that isn’t Foss or open source from the official repos. You could also use an FSF approved distro. Keep in mind, the FSF will only approve distros that don’t include any non-free anything in the official repos. Besides that, you just have to know the licensing before you install it.

Maybe a little late to reply but I use steamtinkerlaunch. You can set it as a compatibility tool and it’ll open a menu whenever you use it that’ll have an option to install/open Mod Organizer 2. Manually modding does work but I can’t remember exactly how I used to do it since it was a few years ago and I’m sure things have changed since.

Soulseek and Torrent sites would be my suggestion. I’m able to seed 24/7 and would be willing to help if you want it.

This is a cool idea. I really liked how you addressed everyone’s concerns even if some of them were already answered or just a bit silly, very cool of you.

I’d love to get a NAS but i’m a bit too stingy. That definitely sounds like a better solution than just leaving my machine on 24/7.

I have 4 drives. An NVMe drive with four partitions: 500MB /boot 64GB Swap 100GB / and the rest of the 1TB goes to /home. Then I have a 1TB SSD for games which is mounted to ~/Games. Then I have two 1TB HDDs, one for Music mounted to ~/Music and another for Torrents mounted to ~/Torrents. I also have an 8TB HDD coming which will be another torrents drive

Generally I’ve found the people who say this get privacy and secrecy confused. You close the door when you go to the bathroom because you want privacy, not because you have anything to hide. Everyone has a pretty good idea what you’re doing in there but you close the door anyways. Secrecy would be if you were cooking Meth in the bathroom and wanted to keep it a secret.

Sorry to break it to you bud, but after some 3000 downvotes I don’t think anyone really agrees with anything you’ve said, ever.

Never used Plex so I’m not sure. I do know that you can install Plex onto most seedboxes and use it that way. I think Jellyfin is the most widely supported one though.

Pretty much just a remote server dedicated to torrenting you can rent. It’ll download and seed torrents for you and you can stream them to your other devices or just download them (not every provider offers streaming).

You should be able to use adbshell with shizuku (both in f-droid) to remove whatever you won’t use. I doubt there’s any custom Roms that’ll help here though. If you’re willing to root the phone then you can probably find some way to get what you want.

I wouldn’t say this has anything to do with the Linux kernel itself. I would make the request with whatever app handles your auto-login (probably your login manager). Also I don’t see the point of a keyring password if it’s never entered. I think it would be by design that the keyring stays locked when no password or authentication is provided.

I mean to use something like htop, btop, or psensor to check how much of your RAM, CPU, GPU, etc is being used along with temperature. Also, what do you mean your RAM always shows as full? I get that Linux “uses” it all but most resource monitors should be able to tell how much is actually being used for programs.

Maybe checking your computer’s resource utilization could provide some insight.

I would go with option 4. I have a 1TB NVMe with /boot, /, and /home. Then I have two 1TB SATA III SSDs, one is for games and the other music. It makes more “sense” to have / and /home on separate drives but I don’t recommend this personally because / doesn’t need a whole terabyte of storage so it’d just be wasted. Swap is optional (I don’t use it even on Gentoo). Me picking option 4 over 3 is just personal preference though. I like having /home smaller because it just holds basic stuff and then I have my 2 extra drives as bulk storage dedicated to something.
