Sorry for the delay, just saw this.

So the "pvpnsomthingsomething" is most likely the name of the server you're connecting to, but if you're not using the paid tier for Proton it won't let you select servers that support peer to peer traffic. Sounds like that might be your issue if you're still getting stalled with that network connection selected.

Also, the killswitch and the ipv6 "networks" that it creates are just there to enforce the killswitch (ie. create a fallback dead-end network device if the VPN goes down) and to catch and dead-end any ipv6 traffic that might be leaking.

Exactly, it will now only be able to access the Internet via that interface even if proton is running but not actually connected.

Even Endeavour comes with Discover installed, and stuff like Octopi exists and is pretty bug free these days.

If you've never had to dig into a registry file or obscure hidden folder path in Windows, you aren't enough of a power user to ever have to in a Linux distro either.

Don't be too optimistic, you probably haven't seen it because it's not being rolled out universally just yet; they like to A/B test their massive feature changes.

I always say, the moment cop cars start adding roof racks and bike mounts we're all getting pulled over lol

Endeavour is a great example for gui only users for sure.

It was honestly the one thing I still have never found a feature parity Linux alt for after years; it will always bug me no matter what other "it's basically the same" suggested player I use instead.

That said, currently I'm making do with Quodlibet, and I have no major complaints. But nothing is an exact replica enough for me not to constantly compare it to Wimamp & complain.

Not a serious suggestion, but I can confirm that WACUP does at least have no noticeable issues using WINE

The world is a dangerous place though; there's all these armed psychos driving around, shooting and beating people!

Sure, sometimes they arrest someone who deserves it, but that doesn't make me exactly feel safe knowing they're out there...

Love to see the dedication on your end with all these updates, really appreciate you putting in so much work on the instance.

Absolutely no regrets moving here after vlemmy disappeared.

The important thing to realize here is that "does the US..." is almost a meaningless category to ask about (at least as far as education is concerned), because each of the 50 different states manages its schooling requirements very differently. Potential course offerings and curriculum are often completely the authority of the individual school districts. So it's almost impossible to ask any given sweeping generalization question about the US school system.

Take the dresser outside first, and block the door from the outside instead.

That whole timeline is insane, and the fact that anyone even found this in the totally coincidental way they did is very lucky for the rest of us.

This is genuinely peak comedy

It's essentially just a remote desktop app, so yeah kinda. Depending on your screen resolution it'll be either be more or less annoying to click on smaller UI elements, but it's certainly possible.

I keep my Bluetooth headphones connected to the PC, and there's maybe a split second delay. Otherwise it's perfect, because you can still navigate your PC with the touch screen as a mouse, and it even nicely supports my 3 monitors at once.

Still holding out for desktop streaming via SteamLink to work on Wayland. I use it almost nightly to mirror my screen to my phone so I can watch what's on my PC while cooking dinner via my phone.

Oh sick, thanks!

How do they unload that? Do they kind of just tilt it into the water, or is there a giant crane freighter ship waiting at its destination?
