Why is Linux total at 1.95%, but the most popular distros don't add up to nearly 1.95%? Is it SteamOS making up the difference?

What the actual fuck

Unpopular opinion: home automation is overblown. Except for the disabled or edge cases the convenience these solutions add are comparable to the inconvenience they bring (added expensive, harder to maintain, repair, replace, etc).

I'll get out of bed to turn off the lights.

If you just want the "how to" guide:

  • Make “speeches” – Talk as frequently as possible and at great length. Illustrate your ‘points’ by long anecdotes and accounts of personal experiences.
  • Slow it down – advocate caution, avoid haste
  • Where possible refer all matters to committees (never fewer than five) for “consideration”
  • Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible.
  • Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.
  • Refer back to matters decided upon at the last meeting and attempt to re-open the question of the advisability of that decision.

Read the GitHub page. I don't understand all of it, but what I think I understand sounds great! Proton would be available without Steam!

What's all of this stuff about "protonfixes" though? What is "protonfixes"? And how is it better with this new launcher?

What if I don't want to bring my god damn phone with me everywhere I go?

I think it's not good manners to send video traffic through tor. They don't have a ton of bandwidth, so I've read the community asks people to find other ways to do high-bandwidth activities privately.
