Yeah but why not both? Extra support shouldn't hurt.

... each time the server restart and randomly during login.

They already accept donations as a means of continuous support. So I guess this is now just another channel for people who prefer buying a license over using github donations.

Edit: oh I just realized they stopped donations with the restructuring. Ok, that's weird then.

Even latest gen Intel i5 don't have AVX512.

They also ship ZFS out of the box, which makes their kernels my go-to solution for the systems I want to boot off ZFS.

They keep paying money for attorneys and court proceedings but don't get anything in return, since the code is out there and will just be shared again by someone else. Hence: whack-a-mole

Actual news: two of the former leads (Jennifer and Björn Pankratz) founded a new studio: Pithead Studios

I guess they can't carry over any old IP, but at least we might get more Gothic-like games.

Proton-GE is a custom distribution of Proton with its own patches applied.

umu is a script/launcher that makes it easier running Proton without Steam.

So these projects work together, not against each other.

There is no "maybe" here. With systemctl suspend you tell systemd to suspend the whole machine. Most of the hardware will be powered down.

Maybe you should generally separate those concerns? Depends entirely on your usecase, but maybe you want your screenlock to do only that... lock the screen. Then you do not want suspend/sleep in there at all.

Although to be fair, WSL fixes that issue to a big degree. Maybe even better than OSX, since you get a real Linux with real userspace. WSL(2) might be the only really cool feature Microsoft added to Windows, that actually brings value for the user.

Offlive account during install works only when you are not connected to the internet from that PC. Maybe also only with Win Pro, not Home.

The crap you have to disable are all dark patterns and I hope the EU rips them a few more holes.

"Just update".... I think I went into enough details about what pissed me off in my initial comment.

Almost every Linux distro would have been: boot the installer, select disk, select meta packages, username, password, done. 10 mins later you have an up to date system with no shady online crap.
