Not necessarily. Timestamps, file paths, and other environment metadata can easily sneak into an executable and make a program not build reproducibly

Ime, not really. It feels daunting the first time, but the installation guide on the wiki is actually really good at holding your hand through it.

Just be careful not to skip any sections

I did seem to gain around 10s in a compilation workload that takes just under 2 minutes (after the switch), but I didn’t perform any actual benchmark

Is there any meaningful difference between installing CachyOS and installing Arch but setong up the CachyOS repositories and using CachyOS’ kernel? I did the latter, and things seem to work fine

Or both! Debian on my server, arch on my desktop, btw

That said, I find it very hard to understand exactly what you are asking for, the post is rambly with a middle section about books that I couldn’t really understand even after 3 rereads.

I think what you are asking for is:

1. It must be possible to legally acquire the game for 10 usd or less, even if only for a limited time (via discounts or other special offers)
2. the game must not have any parts that become more frustrating as you play the game (which is how you seem to define 100% enjoyability)
3. must be playable for 100 hours, or be replayable for that amount of time while being 100% enjoyable throughout

I realize I sounded overly critical in my comment. Open source sustainability, including in monetary form, is a real issue. It’s very important that we as a community try to find working models, and I commend posts like yours that investigate the possibilities and traverse the solution space. Unfortunately it’s a very difficult problem to solve. I think a model that can work is yet to be found

I don’t think either of these model can work. Fund-to-release is basically the same as crowdfunding, except painted as more focused. Now users, rather than “donate 5$ every month to fooProject” need to deal with a constant stream of “donate X$ to fooProject for Y feature / bug”, so it sharply increases subscription fatigue. I guess it wouldn’t be subscription fatigue then. Shopping fatigue?

And what if bugfix X reaches 90% of the funding, and feature Y reaches 90% of the funding, but neither reaches 100%? With a simpler subscription the project would have a set amount of money to distribute across its internal needs.

And this isn’t even touching on the subject of cost overruns. What happens when your feature estimated at 2 months of dev time is 60% done after 7 weeks? Do you ask for a second donation round?

Rather, for this kind of focused work a project should keep one single treasury to distribute as needed, and have polls for contributors (monetary or otherwise) to vote on which parts to focus on first.

The fund-to-release model shifts all the risk on the authors, who don’t see any monetary reward while the work is ongoing and are not guaranteed any even when the work is finished. Dev work needs a constant stream of funding (to eat, pay rent etc) unless the author starts with a sizeable initial treasury, in which case they can deal with big lump sumps to distribute as they need. But this requires at the very least the guarantee of payment once the work is done which, again, this model does not guarantee.

Sorry I don’t have solutions to propose, but I think the flaws of these alternatives far outweigh their pros.

“They’re both for monsters”

If the time is off by that much after being powered off, this tells me two things:

1. Your RTC battery is very likely dead. Should be simple to replace, it would be on the motherboard but then again accessing it might be a little tricky on a laptop
2. NTP is probably not set up, or set up incorrectly. It should automatically sync the time on boot

An incorrect clock can absolutely cause network issues, so I would bet that’s what is causing you trouble

Why are you using networkd instead of networkmanager on a desktop?

What a weird question. Networkd works anywhere systemd works, why whould desktops be any different.

It’s the same as asking someone “why are you using systemd-boot instead of grub?” Because I like systemd boot better and it’s easier to configure. Same with networkd, configuration is stupid simple, I have installed it on my work machine even.

As for op: since you can manually ping ip addresses and the issue seems to be time-based, could it be that your machine is somehow not renegotiating a dhcp lease?

Im my defense, I did test it. It was working for me.

But then someone else touched it without understanding it or flipped the truth value returned by one of the functions used by my code without properly fixing the call sites.

Edit: or they had a merge conflict and they don’t know how to correctly resolve those.

That’s not enough, a better idea is to, somehow, poison the location data. Otherwise by disabling location tracking you still leak the information that you are going to a clinic.

I had an issue where the desktop would take a fair amount of time to load, and I have a very different issue that I don’t even know how to categorise. There’s a wayland app in which keyboard works but some keyboard related things stop working if I lock my screen.

The app is a game (Victoria 3). Normally, space pauses / unpauses the game, escape opens the pause menu, etc. If I lock my screen, those things (and more) stop working, but the keyboard as a whole works. E.g. if I go to save the game I can input text in the save name text field. Keyboard and keyboard shortcuts as a whole still work everywhere else.

The problem goes away if I log out and log back in, but otherwise persists across game session (i.e. closing and reopening the game doesn’t fix it).

I see this as political discourse. I can now look at whoever started and starred the fork and unquestionably categorize them as people not worth interacting with.
