  • That trackball is one of my favorites, I really wish someone would make a real replacement for it. I'm currently pretty happy with the ProtoArc EM01 NL though.
    I didn't need any special drivers to change the forward/back buttons (on either of those mice), you just have to bind them in your system's settings. If you're talking about having program-specific bindings then xremap works well.

    • If you're the kind of person to keep yourself busy all day, then when you're trying to go to sleep might be the first time all day you've allowed your mind to wander! You need to find some other time in the day to allow yourself to daydream. Some tips are to not read anything while in the bathroom or turn the radio off in your car if you have a commute. Maybe even schedule some time to sit and think about things if you can.
    • Only use your bed for sleep and sex. Reading, eating, browsing on your phone, watching TV, or any other activity should be done elsewhere. This way you train yourself that it's sleeptime when you're in bed.
    • This is probably something that can't be done if you have a rotating shift, but go to sleep on a regular schedule. Go to sleep at the same time every day. Staying up late should a rare occurrence. Your body will become tired at the same time each day and it's much easier to fall asleep when you keep a schedule.
  • Damn I didn't know Solutech went out of business. I like(d) their filament and still have a couple spools left.

  • The link mentions that it is only ran as part of a debian or RPM package build. Not to mention that on Arch sshd is not linked against liblzma anyways.

  • I came to the harsh reality and conclusion that when it comes to platform maturity and stability, Kbin is years behind thanks to constant errors across the website sometimes, bugs and other instabilities, this also lead me to reconsider supporting and coming back to Lemmy

    I started running my own personal kbin instance in June and had to face that realization a few months in. I just recently (~2 weeks ago) took it down and started up a lemmy server instead. It's something I should have done months ago because it requires an order of magnitude more resources to run kbin compared to lemmy. I guess it was too appealing to have both mastodon and lemmy in one place, but neither of those things worked well enough to be worth the trouble.

    At any rate, your thread on reddit about kbin was one of the reasons I ventured out into the fediverse as well as one of the reasons I chose to run kbin over lemmy. Thanks for the time and effort you put into doing all that!

  • Install pacman-contrib, this gives you access to pacdiff which goes through all your pacnew files allowing you to see diffs of the changes and giving you different options to deal with them.

  • Fediverse @lemmy.world

    The Wikimedia Foundation has joined the fediverse by setting up their own Mastodon server!

  • pcpartpicker is a fantastic resource for putting together a new build.

    As far as lemmy communities go, there's also !buildapc and !buildapc

  • Also, the reason people throw out the 90% figure is because that's about what it was at the time. Granted most of the rich still managed to only pay 70%.

    Here's a couple jumping points: Historical chart, US tax history on Wikipedia

  • Kbin allows user-level instance blocking, so that functionality should be feasible to implement in lemmy eventually.
