And this is why you don't update your system while in the middle of something you need it for

Seems pretty similar to Reddit to me, besides the whole decentralised nature which is a plus anyway

What are people complaining about?

I can't be the only one who thinks having a bot to go round pestering people for saying things like barmen is a little ridiculous right?

As far as I understand it currently people host their own Lemmy instances just for the hell of it or out of the goodness of their heart

But the larger instances will end up costing more money and I'm doubtful that will be sustainable with no income

Silly boomers, they already own all all your photos

Made the mistake of asking for help on a game's discord (the developers had wiped my save data including premium currency because they migrated to a new account system and I didn't catch it in time)

Surprised how eager people are to shit on each other even when it's on behalf of a company that will screw them over in a heartbeat

The only reason vaping or smoking makes you feel less anxious is because withdrawal makes you more anxious

Your child full of micro plastics, their child full of micro plastics and their grandchild full of micro plastics will be joining in eventually

At least asbestos and lead didn't get passed down to children and permeate the entire food chain and all the water

I'm sure someone will correct me but I believe 90% of professional Linux is done at a commandline, DEs are mostly for personal use

It's a useful skill to have for a number of different jobs but usually not the primary one as most techies have some working Linux knowledge anyway

Developers, pentesters, system architects and similar

Did the buttons really need renaming? It's not like options and share or + and - make any more sense

Easily the worst popular messaging app out there. Even on windows the thing barely ever worked for me and hogged a bunch of system resources to boot

As with many messaging apps only thing keeping it alive is the network effect (and integration with 365)

Why would you not want weekly updates about cheddar cheese though

NFTs and crypto were dubious as to the value they provided

LLMs on the other hand provide very tangible, immediate value to a large number of people

Also they allow companies to save a ton of money on support at the expense of the user experience so of course it's here to stay

I actually cannot comprehend how people can think like this

Saw a 4chan post claiming to be about making crystals that was actually designed to mislead people into making chlorine gas and poisoning themselves - how the fuck can anyone be that broken that they'd find that funny

I think it'd be funnier the other way around

Both ryujinx and yuzu are open source, there are loads of forks

The ability to have multiple displays at different scales is a godsend when trying to use a laptop with a 4k display connected to 1080p monitors or vice versa

Was unaware UPSes even talked to the computers they power, thought they were just backup batteries

Who tf tips a landlord? That's what the rent is for

Would be funny if they'd built a Faraday cage around the bathroom to stop people sitting on the toilet on their phones for ages
