I know a lot of people suggest Proton and it seems mostly fine, but their free plan does not offer SMTP access which I use for quite a few things and I don't like the idea of paying for an e-mail service because I'm broke and I don't like the idea of potentially losing my e-mail account because I couldn't afford it when it comes time to renew it.

There's Riseup which seems really nice, but it seems you need an invite from an existing user which is also a bummer for me. I took a quick glance at their site and it seems you can't request an account anymore either because they had an issue with spam accounts in the past. :(

Is there anything else that maybe I'm unaware of? or maybe someone here even has a Riseup account that'd be willing to invite me?

Tried LMDE and bazzite nvidia, but I just could not for the life of me get Optimus gpu switching on my 7640u laptop from lenovo to play nice.

I am going all AMD for my next desktop, but I am frustrated and tired with torvalds-nvidia

It's a full-frame mirror-less camera designed and assembled by hand. The recent video about this project is truly insane if you're interested in electronics DIY.

Up until 3 years ago I guess (thought it was more recent tbh), it would show blurry images instead of vector maps and satellite, but it looks like it's detailed now.

Previously I think Google had to comply with some protectionist policy that South Korea had in place so that people would use South Korean maps, or something like that.

I am interested in a PC drawing tablet but know nothing about them. I've heard past generations of them are perfectly fine and it's not necessary to get a new one. What are desirable features and signs of quality I should be looking for? Why did you choose yours and how do you feel about it now?

Yesterday, the Winamp source code, build tools, and associated libraries for the Windows app were published on GitHub, allowing anyone to provide bug fixes and new features to the iconic media player.

However, its license prohibits the distribution of modified software created through the release of this source code.

TLDW: There is no expectation of privacy when using your phone re: calls, messages, even your location. Hackers can gain access to it all and prevent these from getting to your phone without you even knowing it.

Use internet-based apps for messages, 2fa and calls like signal, telegram, WhatsApp etc (not endorsing any, just giving examples). The location hack is NOT based on gps so disabling it doesn’t protect you either. You’ll have to leave your phone behind, or power it off to be safe.

This goes deep. I've seen people say things like "US customs are too good, this wouldn't get past us" and nope that is definitely not true. This was all based on a lot of trust that is now broken.
