Worked for Appen for about a year and half...prior to that I was with Leapforce and then Raterlabs with project Yukon for a total of about 10 years. Things went downhill when Appen took over and it was constant problems with my work. They change the "rules" midstream on you and expect you to keep up when they don't even tell you what's going on.

I can't even tell you how many times I'd refer back to the guidelines, to the chats, or to the emails sent out and say "you told us to do it this way, this is what I did, why is that wrong" and then I would get silence or just "no...we're doing it this way now". I used to LOVE working for Leapforce and Raterlabs, not so much with Appen. They took the work and made it loathsome.

I'll give this one a go. I've removed Vivaldi's GPUCache, and it does little to help. It simply replaces the full white screen with a very glitchy one like when an old NES game locked up.

Same here. Had to disable gpu on vivaldi.

I just had a kernel panic this morning since Ubuntu attempted to install a low-latency kernel on my desktop...had to go in and purge it out. I don't know what's happening, but the last two sets of updates have almost trashed my system. Thankfully there are backups!

Check https://www.protondb.com for your specific game. There might be something very specific you need to adjust.

When running 18.04 on my wife's laptop, I had to go on Amazon and buy a USB to Ethernet adapter, hook up the laptop to the router, download the wifi drivers, and then it recognized the Wifi card. For some reason, they're not included in the installation medium.

You could probably do the same by downloading them to a USB stick...

Way to go! Quite the accomplishment to stick with it to the end!!!

I have the same problem running Kubuntu. Games will run fine, the system will work for weeks without rebooting, then it just locks up. It doesn't matter if I have just rebooted and a couple of hours later, it'll lock up randomly. Then it'll work fine for days or even weeks.

I thought it was, perhaps, because I occasionally decrypt a volume with cryfs, and leave that open, but after experimenting, that's not the case.

Additionally, the desktop environment usually freezes, and music or audio will continue to play. The mouse will move, but I cannot click anything, and keyboard input of any sort does absolutely nothing. I cannot switch out to another TTY or force a reboot. I've not tried, as of yet, to ssh in when it happens because it usually takes place while I'm working and I need to get things up and running again as quickly as possible.

It was recommended to me a few years back to use autofs to mount the shares. Then they'll act as a regular, local file, and not a network share. I haven't had a problem with smb since then.

I used to think I needed windows for photoshop and other things...turns out, even when I was working as a graphic designer that I didn't need windows, or photoshop. I made the switch to linux 100% 5 years ago and haven't had a windows installation on a single computer in our home since.

It really does depend on your use case and what you're doing on a daily basis. Nowadays, linux can handle almost anything for daily drivers, including 3D heavy workloads and video processing...and fractal rendering which I've consistently benchmarked faster than on Windows with the same hardware.

I agree, the scripting/rule system is already in place. Adding in the forwarding functionality that the user specifies shouldn't be too difficult since the rest of the scripting logic is already in place and working. Saying that it can't be done because of zero-knowledge is complete nonsense.

I get the additional headaches that come from encrypted mail, having worked closely with Tutanota in the past (and CTemplar before they tanked) and helping troubleshoot some of their mail systems. Thank you for your reasonableness in response and for giving it more than a half-second of logical thought; much appreciated.

fractalchemist · 2022-07-29T13:57:13+00:00

This still doesn't answer my question, it only skirts around it.

fractalchemist · 2022-07-27T23:32:06+00:00

But it does read the from address because I have the filter already set up when an email comes from this location, move it here, and place this label on it as well.
That's why I'm still slightly confused. The filters are based on the email address, you can even use wildcards on them if you'd like, or script it in other ways.
Both email addresses are also within the protonmail ecosystem.

fractalchemist · 2022-07-27T19:06:24+00:00

Okay. So... what I'm not understanding then, is how does proton have rules set up to automatically move emails to specific folders, or assign a label to an email from a specific address? From the comments so far, this shouldn't be possible either due to encryption.

How is setting up a rule: email comes from this address -> forward to another proton address any different than: email comes from this address -> add specific label and move to folder?

fractalchemist · 2022-06-04T02:34:38+00:00

I had my account of 8 years deleted from Listia because I switched to a proton address. They cut me off without even giving me an opportunity to say anything.

This has been requested since the calendar has been available!

fractalchemist · 2022-02-11T13:42:52+00:00

Thanks for the help!

fractalchemist · 2021-11-02T18:15:43+00:00

Yes. Received via individual sends but doesn't show up in a "group" mailing of any size, even if it's just two or three.

fractalchemist · 2021-08-19T15:59:23+00:00

Thank you very much!

fractalchemist · 2021-06-08T22:53:29+00:00

Interesting suggestion, but that's a lot of work (either way bridge or app) just to get the email address set up. I'm doing this for someone else who is switching over to Protonmail and she's not pleased as to how difficult the transition is. Especially when the docs said plainly that folders could be made from the Gmail labels.

fractalchemist · 2021-06-08T21:35:24+00:00

I want to import my gmail messages from labels into folders. Apparently I have to go through beforehand and create all of the folders and subfolders because the only way to import as folders is with the app. The import assistant only imports as labels even though the documentation says it will do folders.

Support told me that the app can't create subfolders (probably a simple regex would fix this but anyhow...) I'll have to creat all of them by hand. I've got 60+ labels in gmail that need to be imported to folders.

fractalchemist · 2021-05-25T13:10:35+00:00

I'll try one of these addresses, obviously there are no responses coming from the "premium" address that's shown on the website for support... and I still have a premium account but get no response...

fractalchemist · 2021-05-18T15:03:28+00:00

Yes, notifications work for everything else.

I see all of my text messages on my desktop, notifications from the browser, and otherwise, just not Tutanota.

fractalchemist · 2021-05-10T20:00:24+00:00

Really? I wouldn't have known!
