I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as @qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in systemd/Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.





Didn’t they switch from Firebird because of the database?


Yes, unfortunately
Why did you watermark your screenshot?


Yeah, I remember it being feverdream sludge when I first tried it


I can attest to that. It’s remarkable on how few distros updating through Discover actually works reliably. I always update through the terminal because at least that works. I’ve noticed this issue on Kubuntu (apt), Debian (apt), and OpenSUSE (zypper). I think these issues are related to the PackageKit integration.


Considering your budget of 200 GBP / 250USD, I would recommend laptops meant for school. There are plenty of refurbished laptops out there with a decent battery condition and overall state for sale around €100. Most of these machines aren’t more powerful than most entry level Chromebooks and often have a Pentium or Celeron CPU, but that’s a tradeoff you’ll have to make. Another advantage is that they usually come with a touch screen and decent display, which is nice if you’re out and about.


sub 200 GBP / 250USD I guess
Last time I checked most were starting at 700+


Everything is meaningless, nothing matters. Therefore whatever you decide is important is all that matters.
You can look up optimistic nihilism if you want


And obviously their option is the “best”. From the conclusion:
Talos Linux is unique. It’s the only option that includes OS management in a purpose-built distribution for running Kubernetes. There’s no compromise for scaling up or down. In terms of small-scale numbers, it “wins” in several of the examined categories, including memory usage, disk r/w, and installation size. But all of these metrics are side effects of Talos Linux’s defining characteristic: It’s simple.
At some point they l announce that paying for a Reddit premium account allows you to be unbanned and free to do whatever you want.
What other reasons or ideas can you think of, that mass banning users, (some with years of age and contributions, some of them mods.) could be the first step in a plan to capitalize.
To me it seems like it’s a consequence of both cost cutting moderators and lowering the threshold for bans to make the plaform more appealing to large companies advertising.


I don’t really prefer it. I just buy gaming mice because they have more buttons and disable the RGB.
Why did you share this?


Windows with the most popular chrome version to avoid standing out
Yes, that and bbswitch. Never got it working.
A common issue with those hybrid graphics is that it simply doesn’t switch and only uses one. Are you sure you’re not just using either integrated graphics or your dedicated GPU all the time?
Not technically hardware itself but Nvidia + Intel hybrid graphics have never really worked for me


Yeah, took me some time to figure out too

They don’t. They have a CDN sponsor.
