Nomnom Cookie posted:"a solution exists" ok cool that's good to know but like...can i have a hint. obviously if i was as smart as you i would've found this on my own, but i didn't sorry, there's two things the titlebar size is dependent on two things to change window button sizes go to system settings -> application style -> window decorations, you can click edit button on your selected theme and make them smaller then, system settings -> fonts, you set window title font size the titlebar size is always smallest possible to hold the buttons/window title font, so if you set both of these to tiny it *should* be quite thin, it does work like that for me

i use a custom version of proton because i'm a dumbass who plays mmos and mmos are very bad and need special settings, but outside those 2 games i just have "proton experimental" default on steam and it just works(tm) until fairly recently proton was a lot more temperamental about what works with what version, but since the experimental branch moved to 7.x about a year ago it's been insanely smooth obviously there's still various catches, like certain anti-cheats simply not working, but that's not really an issue wine can work around without the developer's help

also, wine especially is an odd collection of software emulating an even weirder thing. if you're having trouble with it, do ps x | grep wine, there's probably a wineserver or some other poo poo still running that's waiting on something to happen, which sometimes prevents you from killing wine itself. i find "killall -9 wine wineserver winedevice.exe" works 100% reliably so far, but i'm sure there's other edge cases.

in my experience, usually when poo poo fails it's because a network's down somewhere and postfix will still deliver your message to the mailbox when it's back up, while you're python/curl script won't that's not to say you shouldn't try sending not-mail notifications, but mail is the perfect fallback

idk about reram or pram or whatever, a friend who works in hpc is ordering nram cxl modules, which is how i found out about it it's lower theoretical bandwidth than dram, and latency isn't as good in ideal loads, but as far as real life performance goes it's roughly the same as your dimm sticks because you don't have to wait for dram refresh, and has ~20% lower power consumption poo poo's pretty expensive right now and thus limited to hpc, but instant-on computing has been a goal for so long i can't imagine people won't try to bring prices down
