I use a 10" tablet and a relatively powerful desktop with a couple of large screens and a mechanical keyboard. I don't have uses for a notebook.

Ideally I would like a 13" or 15" lightweight tablet with a stand and a mechanical wireless keyboard, rarely used.

Guess why I don't use the Chrome ecosystem and don't depend on Google.

Ah, that's nice.

We are rather observing we're poorly representative of the majority of the population. And that's a good thing.

I'm a technical search engine user since AltaVista. That all search engine results declined in quality to become near-useless has been covered in multiple articles (e.g. HN). Reasons are SEO, counter-SEO and increasingly targeting mass users. I'm wondering about your use cases since you're not seeing it.

I made a few debmirror distro mirrors from Ubuntu and Debian recently but failed to see a dramatic difference. Can you explain what you mean? Thanks.

How unstable is unstable in practice? Is the dist-upgrade process smooth?

Thanks for the background. My panels are dual glass encapsulated but not bifacial -- not that I would be able to profit from it anyway.

Google Search results have been absolute crap for a long while so many already have.

Would we even miss something if Hollywood is gone?

While I also like to watch a slowmo trainwreck from a distance, we should be focusing on building our new home. The foundations are already here, but everything else is still absent.

No, community-owned efforts like Lemmy and Debian exist precisely because neither corporations nor governments are fit to run them.

What do you feel is biased and constitutes misinformation there? If it deviates from the MSM story that is basically 100% anti-Russia propaganda that can only help broaden the Overton window. We are adults here, so I'm sure you can handle dissenting opinions.

The technical communities were different. Yes, we had flamewars but these were largely rituals. That things we used to say would now land you in jail is a testament to how oppressive our socities have become. It's definitely a contributing factor to the trend of capable people disengaging.

Completely mute would make a strong point.

Consorsbank does. No Magisk required.

You can somewhat trust some people with your data if there is no profit motive. You can't trust a corporation or a government. Ever.

Are both of you living with your parents? I would make a point to not talk when such devices are present. Or just voice order expensive shit on Amazon for his account.

Make a screenshot. Don't give them any traffic.

You say elitist as if it was a bad thing. As to toxic, 1990s online communities has no comparison with casual baseline hostility everywhere today that is just off the charts. In fact, Lemmy already has enough of it for me to start disliking commenting. This is what almost drove me offline in the last few years.

I'm not sure still care enough to run my own instance and enforce stricter standards. It's all so much work and ultimatively futile.
