“100%” which would include those that either don’t have any use flags or all of them disabled by default/masked where -* wouldn’t do anything. pkgconf for example. Uh huh, yeah right.

What percentage of packages?

You can use binary packages for x86_64-v3 and it will already use a lot more modern CPU instructions, and it will still compile single packages from source if you change the USE flags to something the binhost doesn’t have.

It certainly doesn’t “defeat the whole purpose of using Gentoo”.

Gentoo has binary packages now, you might want to try it again. There are retroarch packages in the overlays. Otherwise, interesting distros I know of that you haven’t listed yet are

• Void
• Guix System
• Gobo Linux (unfortunately very low on maintainers so probably not usable as a daily driver, but it is to me the most interesting of these)

I haven’t found a solution, sorry. :(

NFS

It doesn’t seem to be available as part of the standard modifiers. You can probably have it as part of a custom layout, but I have no idea about how to do that.

Yes, it depends on the layout. For example, I use the “English (Macintosh)” variant of the US layout. It has bindings for level 3 shift on all keys pretty much.

In keyboard settings, you can look at a preview of the layout you have configured. It’s in the menu on the right of each keyboard entry in the list.

What keyboard layout are you using? It might be set as default there. Those extra levels change the keys on your keyboard to produce extra symbols, like shift+a produces A, shift3+a might produce å (as it does on my keyboard layout).

Open System Settings, Keyboard, Key Bindings (top right button), turn off “Key to choose the 3rd level -> Right Alt”

1366x768? Where are they supposed to fit all that whitespace at such a small resolution?

You don’t need a tunnel since your server is already accessible by the VPS over IPv6 (and you have to deal with changing prefix for the direct connection from other hosts already).

Yeah, hence why I said “pretty much”.

the NC is rarely available or only for a few seconds which screws my automatic backup of photos. This is annoying. I think it is because there are two conflicting routes to the NC, one via the internal IPv4 and the other over the publicly available IPv6.

Sounds unlikely tbh. A TCP connection is established for a specific target address which stays the same for the duration of that connection, and there is pretty much no interaction between IPv4 and IPv6 in the first place. Have you run Wireshaek? Is it the same problem from other clients in the network? Have you tried explicitly connecting to the IPv6 address and the IPv4 address to see if it’s a specific one that’s not working?

But it actually doesnt. Most public wifis or other residential networks dont seem to give me external access to my Nextcloud, ironically, my mobile network via phone does.

A lot of those networks are run by boomers who don’t care about IPv6 or don’t want to set it up because (insert excuse from IPv6 Bingo) or non-tech people whose router doesn’t turn it on automatically. So yeah, that is unfortunately something you have to expect and work around.

Problem 1 seems to be best solved with renting the cheapest VPS I can find and then…build a permanent SSH tunnel to it? Use the WireGuard VPN of my router? Some other kind of tunnel to expose a public IPv4? Iirc, VPS are billed by throughput, I am not sure if I might run into problems here, but the only people that use it are my gf and me, and when not at home, mostly for the CalDAV stuff.

You don’t even need a tunnel. Just a proxy on a VPS that runs on IPv4 and connects to the IPv6 upstream. Set the AAAA record to the real host and the A record to the VPS. Assuming you actually get a static prefix which you should, but some IPv4-brained ISPs don’t and you get a rotating prefix, in which case it’s probably more annoying.

I do this too, mine runs on a free Oracle Cloud ARM VPS.

The disks are the most uggo part. They’re a bunch of old disks of varying sizes with a RAID+LVM setup to make the most use of them while still being redundant.

They do actually, the iTunes store still exists. I haven’t used it though since while it’s DRM free at this point, it’s not lossless.

Ah, alright. Thanks for looking!
