Take your time and experiment.
Wine prefix is just fake windows directory.
Runner is a way to fake windows exe.
That's as simple as it is I guess.
If you google some r-eddit forums, there's tons of info but it is mostly garbage because it does not relate to your own particular situation.
Therefore it is good to enforce hard learning protocol.

Never mind, I sort of achieved what I wanted, just had to set the allowed sampling rates on pipewire.conf, no more resampling finally.

Now how do I set the allowed bit-depths? Don't see anything about it on the template.

Frutiger aero is too bright and overbearing.
Modern design too flat and dull, and honestly is depressing if anything.
late 90s early 2000s aesthetic though... THIS is perfect.
Shiny and fun and detailed, but not too maximalist to the point you wanna lobotomize yourself.

you're right, I associate frutiger aero with cheap garbage like windows 7 and vista. the more futuristic style of the early 00's can be gaudy sometimes but i find it a lot less stupid looking
>>
>>107638265
Pretty much...
And there have even been cheap salesmen of frutiger aero products as well...

It's a shame most of the lot of my generation want Aero back and not the other stuff like oldweb, metalheart/trendwhore, and general Y2K aesthetics that aren't just cheap windoze crap and glassy garbage.

>also avoid DSC
I had to use it for like a week while a waited on a longer UHBR20 capable cable for my PG27UCDM. It's impossible to tell. I really went out of my way to look at videos of confetti or stuff like that, and my eyes stopped being able to keep up before I could find anything. You'd have to engineer the video to screw DSC, or compare a DSC/non DSC output with a magnifying glass at this PPI.

Email is fundamentally unencrypted so the best you can hope for is a service that doesn't actively have an interest in harvesting your data. I personally use cockli, but every now and then it inexplicably fails to receive emails for a day or two, and also there's zero proof that they're not either compromised by the feds or even just always been a honeypot.
You could use something like proton because they make their money from selling pro subscriptions, so they also probably don't sell your data to advertisers, but they're probably just as much of a honeypoy as cockli if not more.

Just use something that you hope won't sell your data too much, and never use email for sensitive things in the first place.

An alternative is self-hosting but again, it's still unencrypted so your hosting provider can read everything, unless you literally host it yourself at home or on a decent VPS provider that doesn't snoop. But hosting your email yourself is quite a bit of hassle.
>>
>>107637849
Email? Privacy?
Pick one. Email is never secure or private. Even if it were, it's only as secure as the other party keeps it and that's usually where it completely fails.

If you need communication with another party that must be kept private you simply don't use email. Intercepting emails and hacking them is, basically, not even criminal. Tampering with actual paper mail is a felony however. Email is not even remotely taken half as serious and all the big companies know this and are harvesting your emails for LLM training/snooping and advertising purposes. Even if your end is not a snooper, the moment you email someone with a @gmail or something, guess what? Lmao. Now google's got it all, so what's the point?

For private stuff do physical mail or in-person meetups or establish a more secure way to send messages with each other. If the feds want your stuff they'll always get it but you can go out of your way to at least keep the advertisers from seeing your emails if you care to use other forms of communication that aren't email.

(when (not (file-exists-p file))
