I wasn’t aware of SPN thanks!

I wonder what they did to get their YouTube suspended.

I kinda wished you were able to back up your claims. The Steam deck can install flatpacks through discover just fine.

Bazzite doesn’t support the 64GB version of the deck. It’s the version I own.

I run a rebased kionite to bazzite on my desktop pc, so its not like I hate Bazzite, I love it. All in all not a very sensible recommendation, in my opinion the risk of bricking far outweigh the aesthetic appeal to run Wayland apps.

Can you elaborate in which use case bazzite is better on deck than stock steamOS? Whats the difference in terms of battery life? What are the tradeoffs?

bad network driver?

It was good to have it as a backup. I primarily use wireguard but now its a single point of failure.

Try rimworld! You don’t need any of the dlcs for the first couple of successful runs. Just the base game takes you to I would say 85-90% of the experience (ideology is a good upgrade for later). Side effects include, playing too long into the night, dreaming about the game during your sleep and day dreaming about it during whatever else you doing until you get back to playing.

Am I missing something or is the price higher after the 2nd year?

Yearly: $500 for first year, $400 thereafter
Quarterly: $150 every three months

$600 for 3rd year?

Thanks for clearing up my WiFi mix-up. From my understanding the same attack path still applies even to https://grapheneos.org/features#lte-only-mode and respectively https://grapheneos.org/usage#lte-only-mode correct?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Mobile_Subscriber_Identity states the phone would send a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobility_management#TMSI most of the time? But your point about the IMEI still stands. So there is no real way to protect yourself other than to turn off cell tower roaming?

Right, that’s what I understood. So using a VPN, a CSS will be able to identify that my phone is active, but not the content I’m accessing, or who I am accessing it from, correct?

From my understanding your statement seems correct, but it’s also lacking a bit. Unless you also randomize your mac address (grapheneOS does this) they can still map your position and visiting times. Additionally not all of your phones data goes through the VPN, something like a phone call/SMS isn’t encrypted unless you’re using an app to make the call.

The previous comment said VPNs do nothing against this type of attack- were they just referring to identifying your device?

Yes, they are thinking of a VPN as a privacy tool, not strictly as a security tool as in your example. Privacy will be compromised.

That’s not how a VPN works. A VPN masks the information you are actually accessing by showing you query the VPN instead. To make a connection to a service you still need an address. This info is what they are using to identify your device.

Most traffic is already encrypted (httpS) so someone spying on you wouldn’t know the content of your communication only who you contact. But without a VPN a man in the Middle could see who you are contacting. E.g. looking up pornhub. With the VPN it only shows you looking up the VPN.

something you can try https://github.com/ValveSoftware/csgo-osx-linux/issues/3282#issuecomment-1969271416

For me putting the gaming monitor higher on the virtual canvas made them launch on that monitor.
