I am running Bazzite 40 on a system with an RTX 4080. Up until yesterday, I was connecting computer -> Samsung HW-Q900C soundbar -> Samsung Q90C TV.

I couldn’t find anywhere that would tell me what kind of motor is usually used there. And I don’t know enough about motors to be like… well of course it’s this kind… But once I know what it is… how does it work?

I’m looking to buy a Pixel 7 Pro and found a local shop offering two options: brand new and “brand new, soft-unlocked.” I was told the soft-unlocked version is carrier-unlocked (likely from US carriers like Verizon) and will remain unlocked unless I factory reset it.

I am trying to follow my own Pixelfed account on Mastodon, but even though I search for, find, and follow my Pixelfed account, none of my Pixelfed posts appear in my Mastodon timeline. I am unsure if the problem lies with Pixelfed, Mastodon or both. Anyone else have a similar experience? I am @5teverin0, and @5teverin0. Thanks.

Hey all,...

So…I’m trying to get Proton 9.13, as I’ve just read it might be able to run The Casting of Frank Stone without crashes. And…I CAN SEE IT. When I choose Steam on ProtonUp-QT. Or when I choose Bottles. But when I choose Lutris, then add version…the latest GE-Proton it shows me is 8-26. Nothing newer than that. What...

I host a website that uses mTLS for authentication. I created a client cert and installed it in Firefox on Linux, and when I visit the site for the first time, Firefox asks me to choose my cert and then I’m able to visit the site (and every subsequent visit to the site is successful without having to select the cert each...
