Is ProtonVPN & Mullvad affected by this attack? I use both of these services on daily basis. If they affected how can I mitigate this? #tech#privacy#linux#proton#mullvad
All the best parts of #TF2: no cosmetics, no unusuals, no unbalanced weapons, no ranks, no aimbots. It doesn't clog RAM and CPU, has polished settings, lighting, gamemodes, better achievements. Easy #LinuxGaming with #Proton and in-house installer. Not to mention that the game is constantly maintained by Team #Eminoma.
I'm like a teenager again, so much fun playing #TeamFortress2 again, hahaha! :0080:
I'm in the process of migrating from Google Workspace to Proton Mail, but I've hit a snag that might make me stick to Google. I have several email addresses for business, and yet Proton puts all emails in one inbox, which doesn't make any sense. So I'll get emails related to my writing in the same inbox as those for film, as personal emails, and as those for other work? I expected separate logins for each email.
I've moved from the free tier and started paying for the premium tier with #Proton and their VPN/Mail/Calendar/cloud storage/password manager services. It's worth every (reasonably priced) cent to know my online presence isn't being dissected and sold off.
Proton Mail automatically encrypts/decrypts messages between Proton Mail accounts via OpenPGP/PGP.
Proton Mail supports automatically encrypting/decrypting messages between Proton Mail accounts and external email accounts that support OpenPGP/PGP or GnuPG/GPG.
⚠️ According to @VilaWeb, @protonprivacy communicated the backup email address of a Catalan activist account to the Guardia Civil, Spanish law enforcement agency.
I've had a very enjoyable conversation this morning about Linux, and specifically Linux Gaming. From my perspective this is now absolutely on par with the Windows gaming experience but of course that opinion isn't universal.
I apparently did enough to convince the chap I was talking to to give it a try, prompting me to have an immediate crisis of confidence that someone was actually listening to me on the internet and omg what if I've over-sold it?!? 🤣 I run a Gaming Distro: it's entirely possible I've lucked into this experience with my choice to run it because of things the distro maintainers have set up for me.
But I have faith in Proton. Proton / a.k.a Steam Play is a genuine Miracle for Linux.
When Valve launched Proton in [stresses memory] 2018? 17? it suddenly and gloriously catapulted Linux from an awkward, arcane and painful third place in terms of Personal Computer platform game compatibility all the way up to parity with Windows. ProtonDB now lists 20'000+ previously Windows-only games that at least one person has reported works for them on Linux (Many other games could work that just don't have reports yet). ProtonDb, a volunteer-run website, is also fabulous as it grades compatibility. Platinum for Works out of the Box, Gold for Works with Tweaks/Tinkering, Silver for works but with larger issues, Bronze for Doesn't work.
The Steam Deck (which runs on Steam OS, a Linux distribution) couldn't have launched without proton. The Deck is also having a hugely positive effect on Linux Gaming.
You want proof of how good the situation is? Here's a WINDOWS-FOCUSED website extolling Proton's virtues.
Top Tip: if default Proton doesn't work you have two options in Steam: the Experimental version, basically the upstream beta, or there's the 'Glorious Eggroll' [GE] version, created by a single person, that includes fixes for some games that Valve haven't officially included.
If yon chap has anything near the wonderful time I've had playing games from my Steam and GOG libraries on Linux this last year, I'm sure he'll be fine and I'll have avoided a reputation for being all mouth and no trousers. 🙂
⚛️ The Quest to Map the Inside of the Proton | WIRED
「 Physicists have begun to explore the proton as if it were a subatomic planet. Cutaway maps display newfound details of the particle’s interior. The proton’s core features pressures more intense than in any other known form of matter. Halfway to the surface, clashing vortices of force push against each other. And the “planet” as a whole is smaller than previous experiments had suggested 」
