The version available on Disney+ omits the sad song sung between Scrooge and his fiance as she breaks up with him for his avarice. As a kid i didn't like it much, but as an adult i realize that it's a critical emotional turning point for the movie.

Without that song, the whole film feels rather hollow.

The original film is one of my favorite Muppet movies and Christmas Carol adaptations. The loss of that song is a shame.

Any tips for 4k gaming on Plasma?

If i force system scaling, everthing looks great but games dont get to use the full 4k. If i go with app scaling the games look fine but some apps are blurry.

I figured out a halfway solution where i use no scaling and just made the fonts bigger, but some ui elements are still tiny, and steam doesn't scale at all.

Is there a way to disable system scaling for just selected applications?

Any examples? I think ive seen PS buttons before but i cant remember when, it's almost always xbox layout/colors for me

IBT is on the stronger/darker side, Darjeeling is on the lighter side.

IBT should be rich, dark, high in caffeine, with a strong flavor that doesnt get overpowered by milk, or ruined by a little oversteeping. It can still be burned if you use water that's too hot.

Darjeeling should be amber-colored, light tasting, moderate in caffeine, and should have some floral notes. The flavors can be drowned out by milk or oversteeping in my opinion. Best black and lightly steeped in sub-boiling water.

This functionality is or is not part of the game itself. Windows game devs usually only expect an xbox controller, even though Dualshock and Switch Pro controllers are also popular.

it looked like a Tradescantia to me which is a popular houseplant

I don't see the point in downvoting someone when they misunderstood something and OP clarified, but perhaps i just don't understand Lemmy.

If anything maybe I'd upvote the reply for visibility.

Anyway you seem nice, please don't take my comments personally. I think the groupmind that gave you a ton of upvotes and that other person a ton of downvotes just rubbed me the wrong way.

I think that other person was answering in good faith. They were trying to help, they just misunderstood what was being asked.

Looking at RHEL docs it seems to also work there. The same instructions probably work in Fedora but idk I've never done it myself

I think the traditional way to do that is via dm-crypt, which you can set up with an ssh server.

You can also use a network-shared file rather than a password for LUKS but it's not as straightforward to set up as a password. If you are doing something like tailscale then it'd be unlocked as long as you are on the VPN

Typing in a password in-person at a data center would be a huge hassle, agreed

I'm happy with regular password FDE, i think i'm more likely to encounter hardware failure (and then need to read the drive from another machine) than theft of the drive.

It's a good point though, I'm sure many people do need this feature. Ubuntu is "working on it" but so far i guess it's mostly not working except for VMs
