well yeah arm is definitely the future, but edge cases and undefined behavior make parity between the instruction sets a major pain

on my laptop I have tpm to decrypt my drive and I’ve also enabled secure boot and set a bios password, so if someone steals my laptop it’s basically bricked,

secure boots there to prevent any potential tampering if someone were to take the drive out then put it back in

I feel this setup is secure enough for me, if you’ve got some nation state after you, or some guy with a wrench theres probably nothing you can do

arch is super stable ( for the most part ) at with the arch install script it’s easier than ever to install, endeavouros is a gui installer but leaves you with basically an arch system

ive been running arch on my desktop and laptop for years and the only issue I had was that fucked up grub change that somehow got thru

do you have the specific model number of it? that may lead to a specific hardware revision,

could also have been a replaced part, tho idk

I don’t think mastodon caches remote content at all, and only caches posts that a user on the server requests, so if you have a 0 following account the only that would be received are replies

I don’t really understand your idea/question.

if the server doesn’t download anything from any other server you as a user will not be able to see any of the content from federated servers. when you request a feed your instance gives you the list of posts that it knows about

there’s two possibilities for this wifi blocking:

  1. it’s setup to only allow whitelisted devices, in this case you’re fucked, only option is to pretend to be some whitelisted device
  2. it’s a blacklist, in this case changing your mac address will make you appear to be a new device, anyone monitoring the device list could see the unknown device appear

you need the whole line to be like Exec=/usr/bin/env GDK_SCALE=2 /usr/bin/steam %U

I was just being lazy as I was on mobile at the time

/usr/bin/steam should be a link to /usr/bin/steam-runtime aswell
