I'll check it out when it publicly releases, but I doubt it'll replace FairEmail for me tbh.

You can still install other game stores such as Epic or GOG and add games to the SteamOS gaming mode. Autoflatpak also works for that as well. I don't have the steam copy of FFXIV but no issue, I added it to my library without issue.

I'm still newish to gaming on Linux but from what I've heard Nvidia drivers are hit or miss but much better then they used to be. AMD graphics are well supported and using a mix of Proton though Steam and Wine I haven't really had any issues with games. I have an ROG Ally running Bazzite and a gaming PC running Vanilla OS 2, both do just fine. Additionally hosting game servers on my Debian server has been fine as well.

If you're on the fence I'd recommend installing on a separate drive and giving it a try.

This site's cookie banner and method of 'opting out' is atrocious. Additionally, "What is a hookless tire" shouldn't have been so late in the article ffs.

Damn, I'm going to miss those messages one day on my Debian stable server.

Miniatures ≠ most of the 3d printing market. Minis may be fine but the rest of the 3d printing space will be at risk and covers a great deal more use cases.

Meshtastic has the mesh capabilities that others have mentioned but what's more immediately important is the ability to direct message others (no need to send private messages to everyone in range) and the ability to share GPS coordinates which is absolutely helpful in an emergency.

As someone who dailies a trackball, mouse, and trackpad: it depends on the setup. Trackpad is nice for when I'm on my laptop with just one screen. Mouse is nice with two high resolution displays and gaming. And at work I exclusively use a trackball across a triple monitor setup.

Could you please not disparage an entire language and ethnic group? There's an entire grocery list of things you could insult Musk about, even while including Putin, to not bring the Russian language into it.

They're probably referring to nyaa si which normally has either decent webrips, Bluray rips once the show is released physically, and at times with list 3840p shows.

Comments section is kind of more to do with the specific torrent though.

Nicotine+ is a FOSS multi-platform gui for Soulseek and runs on Linux, *BSD, macOS, and Windows.

Freyr is a CLI tool that can either built manually for Linux I believe or ran in Docker on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

yt-dlp is a CLI tool that has compiled binaries or can be installed through a package manager on Linux, BSD, macOS, and Windows.

Soulseek > Freyr > yt-dlp

Soulseek is better for more popular tracks and artists and in normally better quality.

Freyr can be fed a spotify/apple music link, find the highest quality version and pull the file from YouTube music or YouTube. Then it will automatically write the appropriate metadata and cover art to the songs.

If all else fails, yt-dlp to directly rip from YouTube.

Or buy it legally. In the past I've gotten songs by buying from Artists' website, bandcamp, and iTunes.
