Well you could start using classes
- one class that contains the font-weight, padding and border-radius, which is always the same
- one class per "color"
then you assign each pattern the first class, and one of the color classes.
But in the end it doesn't change the function, it's just neater code

I’m trying to undeclock my 24/7 server to draw less power from wall. Specs: —-Corsair tx550m / msi b550-a pro / air cooled ryzen 9 pro 3900 / 3060ti ——
No system fans…no workload, just sitting on proxmox login screen with 1 empty Debian vm running.

No peripherals except 2 ram sticks, an m2 and the power button lol. Total system draws 65watt from wall (monitor excluded) for this…

I’ve already disabled Precision Boost Overdrive, enabled ECO mode, and reduced cpu ratio from 31 to 29 so it’s running at 2900mhz.

I’ve tried to get ChatGPT to help numerous times but around 90% of what it puts out on complicated technical questions is purely hallucinated.

Is it not possible to get all those cores to automatically sleep or something when idling? Wtf are they doing. I even tweaked my proxmox to disable a lot of default services

Your account page (where you can change your status) -> Three Dots -> Advanced -> Blocking List (probably? I don't actually know if that's what you're searching for).
If you're using an older version, I believe it was Accounts (in the menu bar) -> Advanced -> Blocking List.

Can integrated graphics cards on 2025 laptops compete with the Nvidia GTX 960M on my 2015 laptop? I don't do any graphics intensive gaming on my laptop anyway, only 2D games mostly but I notice that sometimes they use graphics cards too these days for some reason, maybe the most graphics intensive game I currently have on my 960M laptop is Fallout New Vegas and older 3D RPGs, Dawn of War, The Making of Prophet Mohmmad and The You Testament.

I think they can. But you should be able to look up benchmarks.
But sounds like you're not even stressing the 960M. Everything you described should run very easily on a modern laptop iGPU

What kind of question is that? Bluetooth is for connecting various kinds of wireless peripherals. What does gaming have to do with it?
Possibly one of the most common bluetooth accessories are headphones or earbuds. Do you listen to sound? If yes, do you want it wireless?
Another common type would be wireless keyboards and mice. Since you mention gaming - for gaming those are usually NOT bluetooth but use dedicated dongles for lower latency and better reliability, since bluetooth is not designed to be super reliable or high performance but rather a low power one-size-fits-all type of thing. But for casual use, a bluetooth keyboard or mouse can be good enough, and often are a bit cheaper.

Getting up and moving around with headphones on. Gamers don't use Bluetooth in general. On the rare occasions they do it's some semi-proprietary hackjob like Sony controllers where they use the data layer to do an end-run around the standard interface. Because standard Bluetooth anything has dogshit latency.

something like;

- mounts each partition in a loop from /dev/by-path (which should be the same each time because you're using the same usb adapter)
- run find on each mounted folder
- unmounts
then just swap the disc and run it again when it finishes one

also mount the volumes read-only, first because you don't need to write to them and also incase there's any ntfs volumes that are hibernated or otherwise unclean, they will refuse to mount read-write automatically. you could throw ntfsfix in there but that's just unnecessary for your purpose
>>106133320
if you want to be more thorough, you should really be scanning for a specific kind of file by magic bytes. i'm not sure if a bitcoin wallet has unique find(1) output, but you should check that. if it does, you should use that, as it will pick up wallets that have been renamed. even more thorough would be to inspect archives (zip/rar/7z/etc) as well

Are there any good quality 2-bay RAID enclosures that don't sleep drives, overheat them, or have crazy loud fans with shit airflow?

I have some old drives I want to dedicate to backups. I figured going with a USB DAS for a simple RAID1/Mirror and then using a dock for other backups is a good option but I want the mirror to be on 24/7 when switched on, quiet, and cool drives well. It seems like most of these things force auto sleep or something because without it they can't cool drives well.

I cannot prove a negative, but I've never really seen a USB drive dock/enclosure that didn't look like flimsy shit. Especially for something like backups, I would strongly consider a NAS if I were you. It'll cost more to set up, but you don't need to splurge on a powerful server system if it's just gonna run backups and serve files to you locally.
On top of an actually decent case that's designed for 24/7 operation with acceptable airflow, you get an actual OS you can use to control how it accesses the drives rather than a chinkoid firmware that does its own thing with no interface, and you can control the fans too - or even jury-rig extra cooling more easily since it's gonna be a real case rather than a plastic dock.
And importantly, you also get a separate system for your backups, so if your main system fucks up completely it won't immediately also overwrite the connected drives.

The downside of course is that you'll probably need to spend $200 or so to build the system rather than $20 on a dock.
If that's more than you care about right now, and you insist on a DAS, I would encourage you to try finding a way to fit those drives inside your case, rather than using a USB enclosure. Unless you're using a laptop in which case rip.

Is PayPal broken?

Can anybody try https://www.paypal.com/signin and see if you also get "You have been blocked"?

Clicking "submit feedback" does absolutely nothing.
I have tried in both a Firefox fork and a Chromium fork.

Those timestamps are showing a lot latency for capable system.
Are you install to virtual machine, have some other process consuming the I/O threads.
If not, pick up that duster and clean that dirty old win10 machine. Do a health on HDD/SDD and RAM blocks.

I bought a windows 11 pc for 60 bucks at a yardsale because I needed something modern enough to run python 2/3 because I wanted to use web scraping scripts like youtube dl and the like. I installed the newest version of python, and installed khinsider dl script to start out, and it didn't work.
I said "fuck it, i'll try youtube dl"; didn't work. It was hard enough navigating this fucked up bloated hellscape version of windows, but the cpu is absolute shit. I dont want to have to upgrade this piece of crap, I just want to download shit without using bad web tools.
please help

I assume this is an in-browser image editor or something similar where you can select the file-type to save as. The browser specific file types are probably using the browser's own image encoding using https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLCanvasElement/toBlob whereas the others are probably implemented in javascript or wasm (probably in a library)

Meh. Back when protonmail first started it was pretty good because it didn't require a phone number yet wasn't blocked anywhere. But they've always been questionably glowy, and now they've made it harder to sign up. Paying for their email has basically never been worth it unless you know you need it (e.g. you want a bunch of addresses, and you aren't doing anything that would make you not want to be with a glowy provider).

>VPN
Proton VPN also has or had(?) a free tier that was serviceable, which is unique because most free VPNs are absolute unusable dogshit and/or data harvesting scams. Proton is at least a known brand name. Proton's paid VPN is honestly meh, again it's somewhat glowy, and afaik you can only pay with a credit card - for opsec, there's basically never a reason to buy a VPN in a way that requires transmitting your personal information directly to the provider. At least if you pay with cash or crypto, you're adding a bunch of extra busywork to anyone wanting to trace it back to you. Now if you're not buying it for opsec but just to have a proxy in another country, then just buy whatever's the cheapest youtube-shilled VPN, like I think nordvpn and shit like that have super cheap deals all the time.

>Drive
IDK but you should always encrypt what you upload to cloud storage. So just shop around for the cheapest prices. Dropbox-like services that advertise "file sharing" rather than just raw cloud storage are never worth it as a consequence. You want backblaze B6, or a hetzner/ovh/digitalocean storage box, or something like that.
Again, the exception is if you're completely fine with them reading all your files. In which case compare in price to google drive or onedrive or dropbox and pick whatever's cheapest.

most of them you can't, as in, they only support windows
some of them do support linux (notably EAC)
your concern is good, both for anticheats but also for games in general which are all closed source and many have been known to come with spyware for no particular reason. the solution is containerisation for sandboxing. unfortunately it's annoying to do and I don't have an easy guide or advice to give you. the alternative solution is virtualisation (i.e. a VM) but that sucks cause you need to set up gpu passthrough and shit

I think you should go ask in /fglt/ for advice on sandboxing steam with something like LXC, they might be able to guide you

I use it to switch between computers. I have a work laptop and home PC and it's super simple to disconnect and swap between both as needed for my work. So there's something for you if you have multiple monitors. Aside from that, if you're not super mobile or need to use lots of devices but dont have a ton of input stuff, you probably won't need it too much.

well unless you count safetynet on android. the thing about kernel anticheat (or more generally, whole-system attestation) is that it requires the critical components of the system be unmodifiable by the user, which is antithetical to most linux distros. basically the point of attestation in this context is to provide some kind of cryptographic proof that the system is as a third party has configured it, like with android safetynet is intended to provide evidence to an app that you're running a completely unmodified android image on unmodified hardware, for the purpose of controlling how you can use said app

Data oriented programming just means instead of having
struct enemy {
int x;
int y;
float health;
bool is_dead;
}

enemy level_enemies[128];

you do
struct level_enemies {
int x[128];
int y[128];
float health[128];
bool is_dead[128];
}

And then it helps keeps data close together in the cache and the memory loads sequential when you're looping over enemies, or any other entity like this.

You can do it in almost any language, and you can most certainly very easily do it in c++.

I really have a hard time understanding why do we in the Raft protocol have that "two-phase" replication in which the leader replicates the new log entry first, then the leader commits the entry as soon as it receives acks from the majority of nodes, and the other nodes commit as soon as the leader notifies them that it (the leader) committed the entry, while in PostgreSQL and anywhere else (for example if sync replication is used) the replicas can essentially apply the state change as soon as they receive it from the primary, no need to wait until the primary executes the new WAL entry or whatever. What's the deal with that? It appears that both of these approaches provide similar guarantees.

Pihole is resolving dns queries now but nslookup on my pc looks like this.

```
C:\Windows\System32>nslookup www.google.com
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
Server: UnKnown
Address: fe80::1

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
```

Is it going to be problem in the future?

Each fan normally will have a pair of arrows, one showing the direction it turns and the other the direction of the air. The arrows are usually pretty small and not super easy to see, they're also often embossed in the plastic i.e. the exact same colour as the rest of the fan's shell.
They're usually near one of the corners, marked on the cylindrical edge that goes around the fan. You'll have to look all around to spot them.

I have a Poco F4, and I want to set it to be better at alerting me when I have an unread message or other alert. I like the phone, but I've been having a lot of problems missing important text messages.
My old Samsung used to have a bright blue light that would stay lit until I checked my messages, but with this Poco if I miss the small notification sound then I've no clue at all I've received a text message until hours later and I get asked why I've not responded to their text. This can't be allowed to go on, how do I do anything at all to make it better at alerting me I have a new text?

Most likely you can't
What you could try is port-scanning it, but in some jurisdictions even just that could be considered illegal without authorization. Also if the IP address is just an average normie's address, you probably won't find anything interesting regardless.

Some more esoteric yet legal ways would be to purchase data from an advertising network (but also walled gardens like google ads are taking over huge chunks of the internet nowadays so there may not be much that's useful), and maybe doing some legal fuckery to open a frivolous case just for the sake of subpoenaing the ISP but I don't know how you'd do that.

How can I appreciate web development when I think that graphics programming and hardware development are more interesting and seems more fun? I have a minimal experience with web development, but I hate everything about finance, defence, cybersecurity and business management aspects of programming, specially when is internet centered which web development is very focused.
I'll join the university soon, but in my shithole village (3rd world country) there's only computer science for web development courses without a deep look at computer science (the fun part for me). I'll try to do it for the degree, but it makes me feel miserable to not see anything about C and how computer hardware and operational systems really work for example, while my only contact with them was studying by myself.
My mindset will be to "do it for the degree" that I'm required for better jobs, but I don't want to really feel miserable while dealing with different layer upon layer of frameworks to build HTTP routes and remember the difference between the syntax of different SQL databases, this feels so boring while drawing a cube with OpenGL more fulfilling.
I don't know why I feel stressed about it. Maybe that there's too much patterns competing against other and people fighting about some new shiny thing against popular thing, while management wants new shiny things when things work and are stable, but this seems to happen everywhere in this field tho.
I don't care about new shiny thing, I care about things working as they should. But I know, this field requires to create artificial innovation by any means to keep the speculative money running.
So the question is, how to stop caring about web development while dealing with it?

I can make it make a noise, once.
I can make it put a little icon on the lock screen that goes away after a little bit.

Why not just configure the Pi-hole to be the ipv6 DNS server? Run "ip -6 addr show" to see if it has a public ipv6 address already assigned and then just configure the router to use THAT address as the DNS server (assuming you can). I'm no ipv6 expert so I could be talking from mount stupid over here, but that was my first thought.

I don't know what weird setup you have, but if you don't want ISPs DNS, manually point to the DNS server,

fe80::1 is like 0.0.0.0 it's for linking and nil..
First ping a ip-address ex 8.8.8.8 simply to see if you have connectivity, if you don't then your setup might have messed with more than the DNS.
Disable network, flush DNS cache, Fill the DNS server of choice manually to avoid further trouble. restart network.

It's fairly easy to put a DNS server on your pihole and it can even be a"middle man" that checks your DNS blocklist before sending it to another DNS.

ip6 has been snailing along for 15 years now, it will never replace ip4 unless some government banish the use of ip4 in all backbone routers

im kinda glad that ip6 never took off since the sharing of ip4 addresses makes internet a little bit more anonymous

Your router will assign IPv4 for years and even if they remove it, you can setup your LAN and continue to use IPv4 from a router or whatever you use.

The internet moves, we you should be happy it's slow or the would break everything in one go.
IPv6 is not immediate concern, eventually it will become troublesome.

because windows is stupid and doesnt support LDAC, my bluetooth headphones sound like ass. theres a single proprietary app called AltA2DP that basically lets you install a different bluetooth driver into windows to support LDAC as well as changing all kinds of other shit like bitrate, encode quality or sampling frequenzy. that programm has a trial version so i could actually test it and verify that it works. but i refuse to pay money for a license that is tied to my motherboard.
is there some alternative or some way to crack it? there is a reddit thread detailing how to crack an older version but that is like v1.0 while the current one is v1.7, so its pretty old already. i would love to get my hands on the current version instead. im baffled how windows doesnt support LDAC out of the box, not even in windows 11. and im baffled how there is only one guy doing this, locked behind a paywall, instead of someone doing it open source and for free.

I set pihole as the only dns server in my router setting but it still forced fe80::1 as the dns server for the whole network. So in desperation i switched ipv6 off.

After disabling ipv6 I still can ping to websites or ip like 8.8.8.8 normally. Other activities like torrent and game are fine so far.

i follow a bunch of exhibitionist on reddit, but the reddit main page only occasionally shows me what people i follow have been posting. in order to see what they've been posting i have to go on the reddit app on my phone and then go through their individual profiles. i think we all can agree fapping with a phone in hand is annoying.
so i want to make a chrome extension that shows me all the people i follow on reddit.

How do i go about doing that?

HTTPS sessions are not fully encrypted during initial handshake, otherwise the web server wouldn't know which website you want to access.
Your ISP can see this handshake so they know the website you are browsing.
They also see your DNS traffic since it's unencrypted (unless you use DoH).

There could be several websites hosted at the same IP address. The most trivial example of this is subdomains actually (since they're technically different domains, each with their own DNS entry).
And yeah the ISP only sees the website (including subdomains!), not the full URL.

No longer true with TLS 1.3 encrypted SNI. As long as you're connecting to a shared IP, which is now most of the internet thanks to the CDN Jew, your ISP has no way to directly see which site you're accessing.

I just use a ublock origin filter to remove all non-nsfw posts on my home feed:
www.reddit.com##:matches-path(?feed=nsfw) shreddit-feed > hr:remove()
www.reddit.com##:matches-path(?feed=nsfw) shreddit-feed > article:not(:has(> shreddit-post[nsfw] )):remove()

it only activates when the url has ?feed=nsfw (it's not a real feed, home is just the default so it uses that :P) then I go to that url when I want to.

For only nsfw user posts? You would add [subreddit-prefixed-name^="u_"] and go to ?feed=user_nsfw like so:
www.reddit.com##:matches-path(?feed=user_nsfw) shreddit-feed > hr:remove()
www.reddit.com##:matches-path(?feed=user_nsfw) shreddit-feed > article:not(:has(> shreddit-post[nsfw][subreddit-prefixed-name^="u_"] )):remove()

Wait till you get to use link-locals and their percentage sign. That crap often breaks syntax in config files or other types of inputs.

>sharing of ip4 addresses
First, you "share" addresses - or subnets rather - on v6 too. Second there's loads of fixed broadband users with practically a static IPv4 address.
Personally not seeing much difference it that regard.
>>106150322
>advertising its own IPv6 address as DNS server
You mean the DHCP reply?
Either configure the PiHole IP manually on your devices or reconfigure the DHCP reply (if your router allows it). Not sure what's the fuss here.
>fe80::1
No percentage sign followed by an interface ID? Doesn't look right. Should look something like "fe80::%1"

but you wouldn't need to, with ip6 it's possible for the government to not only require each home to have its own ip but each device. on ip4 it's not possible even if it was required by law.
we're at the beginning of the great censorship era, it may sound bizarre right now but don't doubt that some governments would prefer each device to have its own ip and never ever a different ip (going so far as requiring wifi connectivity to be disabled by law, think 100 years into an authoritarian future here).
>there's loads of fixed broadband users
sure, but there's an equal number with non-fixed. probably greater number, thinking globally.

IPv6 gives better connectivity while IPv4 makes shit getting CGNAT'd -> no self hosting.

Your idea of per-device IPv6 that can't be changed is all wrong. You couldn't ever change an ISP or take the device elsewhere in that situation. You couldn't have mobile internets either.
Second best idea would be to demand picrel (or a so called IPv6 token) for all devices. But then you couldn't do casual 64-bit subnets, you had to hand out a massive numbers of /128s per customer. It's nonsense.

If bitcoin core tells you your balance then it's your balance.
IF you're fully resynced to the chain head mind you. Or you're connected to a remote node that you trust to be synced and not malicious.

>Because when I go to menu and select the “receiving addresses I only see one of the addresses from the transactions tab - and that’s an empty address
I haven't used bitcoin core in a million years but the simplest explanation is that it because it's good practice (for some very basic privacy protection) to not re-use addresses, it just means the "receiving addresses" is the tab where you go to get a new address to give someone to send you coins, and so will only have newly generated and/or empty addresses. And "received addresses" are the ones that received bitcoin before, so the wallet doesn't show them in the tab for new addresses so that you don't reuse them.
If you've never used bitcoin, note that a single account (i.e. a private key) can generate an almost unlimited number of addresses.

>Nice mind game but I'm not seeing it happening.
It can easily happen technologically too, if all ISPs and router manufacturers do not configure NAT by default (and really, why would they?) and then infrastructure starts being built that assumes one IP per device. Imagine if it becomes common for websites to flag you as a bot/spammer and block your connection if the same IP connects with two different screen resolutions for example, same as how right now it's widespread to either block or significantly gate Tor access behind captchas, account verifications etc.
The fact that IPv4 makes this impossible is valuable IMO.

>IPv6 gives better connectivity while IPv4 makes shit getting CGNAT'd -> no self hosting.
If you're using self-hosting as an activist to get around the big tech enshittification, there are ways around it - for example Yggdrasil, which tunnels just fine through IPv4 and internally uses IPv6 addresses for its nodes and lets anyone trivially host a server.

>Would mean the device can't ever move between networks/ISPs -> not happening.
There are enough IPv6s that you could unironically divide them into a network address and a device ID: 64 bits of address space is gonna be enough for either of these for quite a while into the future.
Not standardised currently and not likely to happen, but it's not technically impossible.

I've always wondered that too but I've never managed to find a real authoritative source, there's so many rumours and urban myths and marketing material out there.
However, over time, here's the tentative understanding that I've built up:
>more over-provisioning is always better
>50% OP is optimal point for drive efficiency and life, above that doesn't help, below that you start losing some speed and some drive life
>nowadays almost all drive manufacturers include at least a few% OP, which is the bare minimum, so you don't strictly need to do any yourself, but it won't hurt to reserve more
How many gibibytes is your OS reporting? Apparently flash capacities are always in power-of-two storage sizes, and since manufacturers commonly advertise power-of-ten storage capacity, it's allegedly common practice for them to use the difference for overprovisioning. E.g. if you buy a 1TB drive and it says 930GB binary capacity, in reality the drive has a true terabyte of flash storage, and the ~7% difference is used as overprovisioning.

As practical advice I've heard everything from not adding any extra and that 7% is fine, to provisioning another 10 or 20%, to always buying double the capacity you need and then provisioning half for the perfect 50% rate.
Since your drive is so huge, I'd go with the middle ground since it helps both speed and lifetime, and 8TB drives aren't cheap so it feels worthwhile. On a 1-2TB I'd probably just allocate all of it and when it dies it dies.

I worked it all out. I updated bitcoin core to the latest version and downloaded blockchain up to mid 2020 so far. The last time I touched this wallet was in 2017. The addresses with Btc in them according to public websites now show up in the wallet’s list of accounts I can receive with. So I just got a 1.5 btc total windfall. I also verified in an offline computer that the pass phrase in my backup files works for this wallet. Wish I could tell you I was celebrating but due to chronic flat emotional effect (unknown cause, I’m pretty satisfied with my life) I feel nothing except being aware it’s a good thing. Gonna pay the crypto tax and transfer it to my tax deferred pension account soon. But btc still has 20+% CAGR going for it so I’ll mull it over

The braindead strategy if you have decision paralysis is to sell half and keep half. It's near ATH right now so it's not the super optimal time to invest but if you don't wanna bother with active trading it's as good a strategy as any, worst case scenario you got like $80k extra in your pension account, best case you've got that plus another $80k continuing to get 20% returns

Yes, this one’s mine. I had forgotten about the pass phrase thing, so recovering wallets from old 2010s drives probably wouldn’t be valuable.

It’s interesting to think about the fact that probably thousands of people on here still have btc without knowing it. They probably did like me and noted down their main btc address, and when blockchain explorer sites say these addresses have 0 balance they think they have an empty wallet. But old wallets are full of other addresses they generated or changed to as well

Passphrases are just passwords and can often be weak if people bought some BTC just as a novelty without really caring, so yeah old wallets don't always work out but they're not entirely useless.
Good on you for keeping the password around though.

it's very rare that something "doesn't work" and that's it, in the vast majority of cases there's something specific that fails with a specific error, so you look at that error and look at why that thing might be failing and figure out what could be causing it, it's no use just sitting and trying to magically divine why something "doesn't work" without any additional information

What matters is the ppi and the space both ways. Adding more pixels on the sides doesn't remove the pixels on the top and bottom, and vice-versa.

At least 16:10 is similar enough to 16:9 that it's usually actually added pixels on the bottom. Which is fair enough, you do get more space there. But it's also similar enough that it barely matters in practical use.

PPI doesn't matter in this conversation. More PPI just means sharper image. If you think more PPI means you can fit more content on the screen, you can go ahead and use 50% scaling

By that same argument space doesn't matter either. More space just means bigger pixels right?
There's a reason I wrote a full sentence that mentions more than one thing in it.

For some reason, every time I restart my PC, some registry keys are just reset to the default values (Windows 11 home). I even tried putting the key in a .reg file to run on startup, which I saw it worked then was immediately reverted. Is there a way to actually keep my registry changes from being reset, or am I stupid?

Is there a browser that lets me switch between different "cookie & bookmark" profiles? Until now I used to open Chrome as a different user and stored all my hentai booru / sadpanda / fapping material cookies there. But I'm about to finally drop Chrome after ~10 years and return to normalcy, so I'm looking for a sophisticated way to keep my outside life and my fap life separate.

If I never do anything dangerous with my laptop, like carry them around or other outgoing stuff that outgoing users (like Thinkpad users are), isn't a Thinkpad redundant? Like the whole thing about Thinkpad is physical endurance, right? No special "thousand times folded detoated WAM which lasts better"?

Single file (e.g. toy program for assignment): directly call it
A few files with almost no external libraries/dependencies: makefile is fine
Anything bigger, and anything that depends on external libraries: you'll want some sort of build system, cmake was the default one from years, nowadays I think stuff like ninja or meson exist as alternatives

The point of thinkpad endurance is that you can buy a 5 year old one that's being offloaded in bulk by a business for 1/8th of its original price, and it'll still likely be in excellent condition.
Also, in the past, they were easily upgradable. Now this is becoming less and less true.

Really in a lot of ways the three main business brands (Lenovo, HP and Dell) are pretty similar in terms of value for used business laptops. The point, again, being to get a machine that's in a few years old but still in excellent working order, and at bargain prices.

Ok fair, I honestly have no idea how chrome works but basically firefox profiles work the way you want. You select a profile on startup (there's a default one of course, but you can create more and choose a different one) and a profile basically stores your entire user data as far as I'm aware, bookmarks, cookies, history, settings, extension etc.

Am I really unlucky then? I work for a big corporate and I got a Lenovo P15v and it had big problems with the battery, even before the warranty was up, and some display input issues too. My first Lenovo ever and it was shit.

Serious answer, you are probably not using that, your EFI boot partition (if you have one) will use that but it's tiny and basically no OS would ever make it the default for the rest of the disk.
Check again

"Linux Filesystem" is the partition type GUID of the partition. It just describes what the partition is supposed to be used for. But it's very likely ext4 if you haven't changed anything during installation

the maintainers usually publish an update cycle somewhere that should give you an idea

So first the devs need to release an update, which basically usually involves picking a specific point and saying "this is the new version". This varies wildly between projects and you need to check if there's any info on this, or see what the frequency of past releases looks like
Then your OS needs to update its packages to the new update. This can also vary wildly, especially if you're on a "stable" distro - those tend to avoid updates that aren't security-critical. I haven't used Fedora, so I don't know if it's rolling release or not.
It will also depend on the package maintainers. If it's reasonably popular software, the package should be updated relatively soon. If not, it could take a while. Some packages even get abandoned and stay outdated for months, or even years.

You can always install it yourself.

Thanks, that helped me untangle the whole thing.
Maybe it's helpful to someone else if I describe what I'll do from here on.
The project in question has a releases section, which lists all the commits that go into a version. Once I see 'my' commit, I can look up the version number in Bodhi, which is Fedora's update/package tracking thingy.
Fedora is stable, but my particular fix is very likely to get backported, so I don't have to wait until next year, yay!

To look at an adapter, take it apart, duh.
Reputable brands you need not worry about tend to have names like Orico, SetMSpace, Vention, SSK, Minisopuru, and Mokin. No name stuff can often b e good, too, but there is junk among those as well, and it a game of trial and error to learn what's good and what's not. If anons would work together on this, we could maintain a simple database for ourselves from which others could check to see what's junk and what's a bargain or otherwise great. The more people involved, the less the work and spending per person to contribute.
