If you use the config file generator from the Proton website, you can have a Wiregard config tailor-made to load in NetworkManager for instance. Or several with or without NAT, different exits and so on.

I don't know how this isn't widely known, it's been there for a while.

I am a full Proton paying customer too. At the time of signup, a Drive Linux client was supposedly next in line... There's zero mention of it now. I need a VPN IRL and wasn't keen on relying on a free plan where I was used to pay for one anyway. Aaaand I planned to move my emails of course since it's in the bundle.

I'd gladly uplift people and advocate for progress on the privacy and security fronts, invite world+dog to join but I can't do it now in this situation. Linux users being underserved is how I feel.

Mandatory "I use Arch BTW" mention.

That Boss guy says it there, Linux customership is negligible. I was happy to switch to an ethical ecosystem, but at the end of the day Proton is a company that runs for profit.

Nevermind that this specific Linux customership is exponentially sensitive to privacy and security next to the average windows user, our money still doesn't matter.

It's... annoying. Drive is relegated to weekly Dead Stupid Backups while Dropbox gives me real filesharing, VPN is highly unstable next to my former.. dare I mention it? Yes: next to NkrdVPN which was ultra reliable anywhere I went, and Mail is only used for the passmail obfuscation since I don't think I'll stay with proton and didn't switch my main mail to it.

I'd be curious to know if the userbase of proton products reflects that of general statistics of OS'es repartition.

Reconcile these two axioms:

1. Every Lemmy out there is using (arch) linux exclusively, both at home and at work

2. Every post on c/linux is about ditching windows very soon and choosing the best linux distribution

That's a Nobel Prize in (creative) mathematics right here!

Up/Down speed is my feeling, but "negotiations" between client and server too.

I never had the VPN app to work, I use the config file generator then set it up in NetworkMamager - which at least work all the time.

Done, you're right

So slow and cumbersome. Sorry my benchmark is dropbox

I got it in my proton mailbox

https://form.typeform.com/to/L0UNpRar

The mail says "Limited submissions. Respond now to ensure your voice is heard."

Go for it!

I answered "I want safeguards in place towards the purpose and final use of LLM's output".

The mail even says "Limited submissions. Respond now to ensure your voice is heard."

Go for it!

Funny story the other way around: the year is 2002 and I live in Laos. Bootlegs Everything Galore, all movies games music cost $1 or about. I discover a game, and then begins a quest to buy The Real Version because it's a small studio and I really like it all, the storytelling, the modding tools, the community... A quest that would end up in Bangkok looking like the proverbial insane foreigner looking for the most stupid way to spend his money.

I found it eventually, in a shop that didn't look any different among all its brothers in Pantip Plaza. Took me a while lol.

You can also ask it when is the cutoff date of their database - there is a gentleman's agreement between providers not to have ai involved in news / current politics in it's public chats.

I tried them on a topic I'm pretty proficient on, (a spaghetti recipe lol) and the answer was the most bland imaginable.

The way it is setup by DDG, the restrictions and blandness, shallowness of the replies give me peace of.mind when a 'natural language' query is the easiest one. And Claude wouldn't give me the DOB of that queen because it is Personal Info!

I may loose some answers in searches since I only use DDG

I often do not read articles or information from websites if the gdpr popup isn't solvable in a click but the site ask to click on a thousand toggles

Where I am at the moment, the lack of FB marketplace sucks

A lot of cultural info goes through Instagram here, so I have to be a bit proactive if I want to know what's happening

I use signal or text when possible, but work is impossible without whatsapp

DDG has it's non-track version online since a bit now. Use the !ai bang to get to it

Also you have the choice of Claude insted of ChatGPT, and your queries aren't harvested for further ai training

In any case, it's a completely different tab, it's not mingled in general search results

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Ponyos, is in fact, GNU/Ponyos, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Ponyos. Ponyos is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, that version of GNU which quite nobody uses today is called Ponyos, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Ponyos, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Ponyos is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Ponyos is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Ponyos added, or GNU/Ponyos.

An early one, a 7 with the smaller engine I believe (the difference is in the rims). If I'm right this puts this picture as pre-ww2 because the 7 was very quickly replaced/followed by the 10 and 15. Numbers are “fiscal horses", the amount of taxes to pay being relative to the size and power of the engine.

Don't insult Lego

I know everybody always grandly takes on the High Seas, sailing them with lots of "arrrr“ and stuff, but I've found that small, quick flowing rivers oftentimes do yield a good catch.
