  • Something new to try/learn always motivates me.

  • GoToSocial is awesome. Some features are still missing, but the server is in active development.

    As front-end I use Elk. It's selfhostable as well as publicly usable at https://elk.zone. It's labeled as alpha software but runs absolutely well.

  • It will be greatly beneficial for my life and especially my privacy to self-host such software

    You should go the Docker route. If you selfhost for yourself you can even use a Raspberry Pi or any common "mini computer" available. Just make sure to install a large enough SSD. 1 terabyte should be fine if you don't want to use OwnCloud or something like this.

    (And now you have something to learn! πŸ˜€)

  • Great, isn't it? You just set up a system you like for you to use, without any bullshit.

  • The X1 Carbon Gen 6 is from 2018. If it was used since then it doesn't worth anything at all without battery replacement, maxed out RAM and a large SSD, even then, maybe 150 dollars max. If it is old stock it might still need a battery replacement and then I'd totally not pay more than 250 dollars.

    Edit: I just checked PSREF: You're limited to either 8 or 16 gigabytes of soldered RAM. You cannot upgrade or change it.

  • Wait a second. Gravity doesn't exist! The flat earth is constantly accelerating! You're one of THEM!

  • I wonder if Arch makes people unhappy or if unhappy people chose Arch.

  • They either got wooooshed or are taking part on that joke ...

  • The joke is the absurdity of a flat earth and making puns like "all around the globe" in that context and creating absurdist proof that the Earth is flat despite everyone knowing since kindergarten that it isn't.

    But some people started taking it too seriously.

  • Back when "The Flat Earth Society" was all about trolling and making an elaborate scientific joke and not hardcore extremist science deniers.

  • Look at what Disney did with thier last few Star Wars shows. And then remember not doing it like that.

  • In long term, for substituting them with their own links. In short term it's a nice feature.

  • A black hole having the mass of the sund would have a Schwarzschild radius of circa 3 kilometers.

  • I don't trust Mozilla one single bit with my data as long as they have an advertising network enabled by default and use pingback telemetry for ALL actions you do in the browser by default that can only be turned off by changing multiple "hidden" about:config settings.

  • But people actually literally want this.

    No-one except advertisers want this.

    Most people simply do not care at all.

  • What are the right settings to disable that crap via user.js? I assume this is done via hidden extension, like Pocket.

  • I have to use Windows on my work computer and I am finding it hard to get FOSS applications on Windows that can do stuff like

    The Gold standard in the screen recording world is OBS. It's not only available for Linux, but also for Windows and, well, is the gold standard. If you ask the question if OBS can do this-or-that regarding screen recording, the answer generally is yes (or "yes, via plugin"). Just use OBS on all platforms, it's clearly the most mature screen recording tool out there.
