Did you ever go to a city that was very different than you imagined and surprised you positively? If yes which city was it and why did it surprise you?

Jump

  • Singapore is a tropical city above ground with an underground city beneath it. Great food, great people, just do not chew gum on the subway.

    • Surf Dracula®

    Jump

  • Now I desperately want to know how he got that surfboard. How much does this hypothetical streaming service cost?

    • Do you have any non-political/non-religious/ things about yourself that you're less afraid to share online than IRL?

    Jump

  • My obsession with the Fediverse and Linux.

    • How a fed up carpenter found his stolen power tools — and 15,000 others

    Jump

  • Did anyone read the phrase “fed up carpenter” and immediately think the was the second coming of Christ?

  • Librewolf is great. Secure and private by default. For compatibility it is nearly as good as Firefox.

  • A lot of good stuff here. The three things that are most notable for me are:

    Notepadqq

    Fsearch

    Librewolf

    • Teslas can still be stolen with a cheap radio hack despite new keyless tech

    Jump

  • How about a simple faraday shield for the key fob?

    • Joe Biden keeps sneaking wins past Republicans distracted by Trump

    Jump

  • So your saying a guy who has 40 years of experience in lawmaking is good at lawmaking?

    • Should we replace democracy with science?

    Jump

  • So like philosopher kings?

    • What is the best Ad/ Tracker blocker for safari IOS?

    Jump

  • I use alt browsers like DDG and Brave that have builtin ad blocking. I also have a pihole.

    • SteamOS as your daily driver?

    Jump

  • Good question! After installing Emulators on my Steamdeck I realized it could run as a desktop. Also, I learned it was a rolling release. This seemed attractive to me, so I wanted to hear how mainstream this could be.

    Sounds like the answer is not very. Some other good suggestions in this thread I might try, though.

    • SteamOS as your daily driver?

    Jump

  • Not anymore according to Wikipedia:

    SteamOS, version 3.0. This new version is based upon Arch Linux with the KDE Plasma 5 desktop environment

    • SteamOS as your daily driver?

    • Do you have some minor life advice?

    Jump

  • The thing is, you never know for sure until you try it.

    • BookWyrm.world

  • Who are some people to follow on Bookwyrm?

    • Proton Mail Finally Releases Desktop Apps With a Linux Beta Version

  • Does it support offline access?

    • Bluejay!

    Jump

  • Thanks! I was playing hide and seek with this little fella for a while and I thought I had lost him when he suddenly hopped up on this bush and I snapped a few quick shots.

    • The Wealth of Dragons

    Jump

  • The Nerd Dragon is my spirit animal.

    • Games rule

    Jump

  • Killing Nazis

    Good thing I don’t have to worry about that ever happening IRL…

    • What are you reading??

    Jump

  • I knew the story of John Lasseter, but I never knew Ed Catmull’s role in Pixar. He was the tech guy who turned into the pragmatic leader.

    Lots of good info on the early days of tech, interactions with Steve Jobs and really insightful advice on how to nurture creativity.
