Valve's work with Proton to run Windows games on Linux / Steam Deck is amazing, but they do require you have newer GPUs so some have been a bit left behind. Proton-Sarek aims to fix that.

What are the *technical* steps behind moving a Mastodon account?

I understand how to do it from a user perspective (docs.joinmastodon.org/user/mov…) but what does the new server need to do?

Is it as simple as adding an "aliases" to the webfinger?

Honoring Dias de Los Muertos today with my tarot card - "Death". 🌸 💀 🌹 #diasdelosmuertos #DayoftheDead deviantart.com/sylviaritter/ar… #art #mastoart #fediart
This is the death card from my tarot deck in progress. It stands for change, transformation, and letting go. I've chosen a crow to represent this meaning. Dias de Los Muertos is celebrated with flowers for their loved ones. The crow wears a flower crown with colorful feathers. It wears a bird scull too and has a bone structure painted on its feathers. It is surrounded by many flowers (white, orange, and red) and sculls with glowing eyes. Time symbols can be found. In the background, an intricate old clock, in the front, a burned-down candle. Time is precious, make the most of it <3. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Death-709557938

One way this election affects me personally is that I could lose my health insurance through the ACA, which has allowed me to be self-employed all these years. For a refresher on what healthcare was like for freelancers pre-ACA, see this autobio comic from 2012. kffhealthnews.org/multimedia/o…

I've had my Medicare Advantage insurance canceled *TWICE* within twelve months because of dispute between the insurer (United Health) and the medical provider - it had nothing to do with me.

So I ended up with pneumonia, a temperature of 104F, and uninsured. I was turned away from urgent care and had to go to the ER as uninsured.

Our US medical system sucks.

I'm so glad you have a good plan through the ACA. I had to close my small business in 2018 when my husband got laid off and we lost his corporate insurance. When we went to sign up for the ACA, the cheapest plan that didn't cover anything until you hit a deductible was $2600/month with a $14,000 deductible. He couldn't find another job (age discrimination) and I had to go back to the corporate world just for affordable insurance. The ACA is great for a lot of people but it needs a lot of work to be good for everyone. I wish I could just buy into Medicare. But I sure as hell am still voting for Harris even though the ACA kinda ruined my career. Trump definitely wouldn't fix it.
