  • I find all this "bog down your system" answers to be a crock of shit. Go run ESET nod32 and put it in interactive mode. Yes, you'll get a lot of prompts but damn you'll learn so much about what's going on in your computer and the networks it's reaching out to. If you're on windows run glass wire or OSX run little snitch. I used to know a Linux alternative for those but the point stands that you should have tools that you can use in a desktop setting to really understand what is running, and what it's connecting to. You should have a program running that can check against a database of hashes of files for signature matches. It seems though like there's not strong enough AV. And I suspect that's on purpose so state actors can easily get into our systems in all nations.

  • Can someone tell me how decentralized money became the enemy? It is decentralized currency that is like everything we stand for literally using mastodon protocol here.

    it’s not the creators fault that the first thing the userbase did was centralize it onto these marketplaces lol. I’m reminding people that this is conceptually great but terrible implementation, across the board.

  • I've tried so many different social media platforms and every single one has been an echo chamber for their little slice of hell.

    Lemmy just happens to be FOSS tech and liberal stuff. They're all echo chambers for sure.

  • When you go just ask if there's cars or models without the car itself having a SIM card but that still has carplay. People love to drum this stuff up but they still make dumb cars. There's usually like 3 variations maybe 4 of each model. Go lower on the model to get less features but still the right amount of them.

  • Having my lights turn off from a voice control is really useful when I want to take a nap but I found that it was weird having all this shit tied into a strangers cloud (google, amazon, apple, whatever). If its hosted at home its usually just fine. As long as ET doesn't phone home.

  • If I am reading this correctly, men drifting towards conservative and women drifting towards liberal?

    That would reflect the culture found in apps - I feel like men with andrew tate and things like truth social/rumble/kick and women drift more towards stuff like reddit/tiktok/instagram where you can usually see a lot more liberal idealogy.

  • Mmm I think the expectation is set so that this guy basically can't stalk the official. Which is sort of fucked because that's a government official: you're being judged on the merits of your time spent in public office.

    I get what you're saying though. I think if it was journalism it would be viewed differently.

  • I don't think I'm going to smell anyone's asshole in a nearby future and I pray you don't either, friend.

    Wipe until clean, spray your anus with water, just get the job done and shower often.

  • I AM TALKING IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I AM MAD

    HOW DARE THIS FREE SERVICE I USE GO DOWN HOW EVER WILL I POST MEMES FROM MY OPAL THRONE

    Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

    also thank you for hosting us and working on the issue!

  • I had reasoning for the steam deck when I wrote that but I'm struggling to recall why. There was some niche with Linux for it since it has good support for Linux applications but I can't remember how I thought it would fit

    Anyhow nook and especially kobo are solid.

  • If that's happening to you that's crazy. GitHub is way too noisy though. I get 30 notifications on that apps notification widget though for just bullshit I didn't even know I signed up for or snyk or some other garbage.

  • Can I be ridiculous here and say that a nook e-reader or kobo e-reader, and a steamdeck would suffice?

    Maybe just a kobo?

    I know it's not Linux and that's what you asked for, but at the end of 2022 when I looked into this I had a hard time finding Linux tablet with a good UX.

  • Yeah I can see an element of that being true. I wouldn't mind just enjoying it for what it's worth.

    I think though that the mainstream being able to speak what they think without a reddit bot saying "pictures are not allowed on /pics because it's not a hyperlink and 84 characters long is not allowed" has value.

    In other words just unrestricted free speech for the more reasonable part (no threats). But on the other end once it's picked up by mainstream it probably is ruined by pumping of ads somehow.

  • I'm glad you think so. I remember Richard stallman banging on a bongo singing that charging for software is greed.

    I just want people to have enough incentives for their time that things are safe and the workers paid properly. I wish more open source devs got paid.
