I am glad that they plan to improve and made steps towards it, but i still have a sour taste in my mouth:

• I was expecting a formal apology for the monoblock and mouse skates film issue. Both of these were instances where LTT threw another smaller company under the bus. Them not addressing it further gives the assumption that they can, and will keep getting away with stuff like this.
• Their new guidelines for correction policy are flawed; even the low-severity ones are thing that really shouldn't be tolerated with no corrective action, and all factual mistakes should be re-shot or voiced over instead of on-screen corrections.
• They hardly touched upon the whole Madison situation, except for some boasting about employee benefits.
• In the whole situation, I felt like they failed to really admit that they were sorry for what hapened, and were taking the role of the victims.
  • "We are people too" and a whole segment in this video of emails from fans hoping they will get better soon and "survive this difficult shitstorm". LMG was merely getting away with this stuff for a long time and just now have been called out. They don't deserve any harassment, however, they also don't deserve any "Get better soon" emails from fans.

TL;DR: I will most likely continue to watch Linus tech tips for entertainment purposes, but will no longer trust them on any technical details, and would go to other channels for tutorials on how to build a pc and such.

Check out Gamers Nexus. In their last ITX case review, you can see just the level of immense detail, specifications and testing for a simple computer case.

fill it with sunflower seeds and glue, like those chinese brainrot videos

Check out some alternatives:
searXNG - open source & self-hosted meta-search engine (aggregates results from many others, like google, bing, qwant, duckduckgo - configurable which ones.) list of public instances just pick one that's close to you physically and has a good uptime.
duckduckgo - uses bing for most search results, but is way more private
brave search - uses their own index, has a privacy-respecting privacy policy and the results are pretty damn good

good call asking for a proper venue to test this, but how do you mean you can't remove federated stuff? i was under the impression (from lemmy's homepage) that one of the features is 100% complete deletion by replacing post/comment content with 'removed by user'. is this not the case?

the fork version works fine. if that dies, i'm hopeful some new fork will emerge. syncthing is well known and used by many, so i think as long as the original software is alive, there'll be a way to use it on your phone. heck, there's ways to run syncthing on a pocketbook e-reader, lol

spent a few hours yesterday sorting all of my subscriptions and moving them to newpipe. while having everything auto-backed up by google was convenient, newpipe is much better - i go in, watch some videos i saved into a playlist or that have come out from subscribed channels, then go out. it feels way better then being sucked in by the algorithm. i think i'll still use youtube's algorithm on my pc sometimes, as this setup hinders new content discovery. but overall, i'm really pleased so far with the new setup.

lemon. always lemon. if i get more than 1 scoop, then salted caramel or something with chocolate (like bounty, snickers, oreo, crunchy, dark chocolate, etc)

you can become an artist! pick up a pencil/pen and a piece of paper, start drawing! it'll suck at first, but it'll get better with time. look up some tutorials, ask a friend to teach you or pay for a in-person tutor if you have someone like that near you. you've got this!

I've been using brave search on my pc and phone for maybe 6 months now. i still use google like 10% of the time if i'm searching for something that isn't in english, but otherwise, id even say for many things brave returns better results than google

i use coding/languagename/project, where most if not all projects are git repos. so, coding/python/shira, coding/java/datetime examples i have some wildcards for the languages, most of my serverside js stuff lives in coding/node-deno and most of my fullstack webdev stuff lives in coding/webdev

i used to have the coding directory on a hdd, but moving it to an ssd helped a lot when installing things made with node, among other things.

i'm fine with any donation notifications, even on by default, if they can be disabled.

why would you wanna kill the programming language commitees.

if you write you content in obsidian, you can use their Publish service to host it hassle-free. also, if you don't want to pay for Obsidian Publish, it's pretty easy to set up a vitepress site on top of an obsidian vault. it's what i did here: https://kraxen72.github.io/tech-support-wiki/ https://github.com/KraXen72/tech-support-wiki (see the docs folder)

there was a similar question/joke related to Logic (the rapper): Can you preform Under Pressure? No, but i'm pretty good at Gang Related.

no, not really. i kinda quit social media in the sense that i no longer use reddit, instagram, twitter or snap. they were all just too addicting. i log into lemmy once in a while, to see what's new, since there are some nice niche linux related communities, but apart from that i'm only on youtube (when i'm eating) or on discord (few small-ish servers). i don't really care much for news or polictics, and if i really need to know what's going on, i check the front page of wikipedia or ask my friends. i'm still struggling with using my phone more that i'd like, but this week i took a break from discord and youtube, with mixed results so far (see: i'm on lemmy), but overall it's been really freeing to not be on them and have a bunch more free time.

This came pre-installed on fedora kde spin, and i really tried to like it.But it couldn't, it just didn't work intuitively, kept freezing, options were missing,... Right now i'm using audacious, and I like it a lot. Still a big fan of KDE's stuff, for example, i love the Haruna media player <3
