  • The new thing seems to be "clades". I'm not sure if it's a complete replacement of the traditional taxonomy, though.

  • Just stop dual booting. This is self-inflicted harm. Setup a VM or find a native workaround.

  • I stayed on Myspace long past when the majority jumped ship. It eventually lost what made it special when the boy band guy bought it to twist it into something more music focused. But I still preferred it to the sterile, uniformity of Facebook.

  • Ah, gotcha. Feel like I'm too old to keep up with it now.

  • Are these called "Wojack" memes? I've never understood why this art style became so popular.

  • It hides the problem or else it gets the hose again

  • Lemmy Shitpost @lemmy.world

    They come runnin' just as fast as they can, 'cause every girl crazy 'bout a shart dressed man

  • I just rip the band-aid off and dunk myself. Better to get it over with quickly. Also, if I'm doing something like a dive or a flip, I find that my mind is too busy on the technique to really consider the cold shock. Plus, then I get to look smugly at the others that saw the sweet move I just pulled off.

  • I would say not much. If it's your own personal LAN, and only your devices are on it, and you're not hosting super sensitive data, then I wouldn't personally be worried. Just depends on your risk acceptance.

    Edit: But if you are hosting sensitive data on an untrusted network, then definitely require a user with a strong password. Also, SMB3 and higher supports encryption (both in Windows and Samba for Linux). Encryption isn't enabled by default, though. So keep that in mind. Easy to setup on both Windows and Linux.

  • That's a security quirk. Microsoft reeeeeally doesn't want you to do anonymous SMB anymore, and with every version of Windows, Microsoft has made is more complicated to get it working like that. It's probably still possible, but easier just to make a quick local user account and assign it read/write permissions to the share. Samba on Linux can still do it without as much fuss, but I've long since just accepted the extra step.

  • "Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin'..."

  • I agree. One of my favorites. Feels like a Black Mirror episode. I watched another one recently called Companion that I'd recommend to anyone who likes Ex Machina.

  • I've got 25 years of Linux usage under my belt at this point, and I've settled on Debian for all PCs, servers, and anything else. Stability is so much more important to me than bleeding edge software, but for those things that absolutely need the latest and greatest, there's Backports and Flatpak.

  • Well, ya got me there.

  • Maybe because IBM bought Redhat so they're saying it's corporate? Just a wild guess. I use Debian, and not sure why that makes me the hide the pain meme.
