Ænima

I had my first fuck up with openSUSE+Gnome a couple of weeks ago when impatient me killed my laptop in the middle of like 1600-updates. BRTFS was the only reason I didn’t rip my hair out and the primary reason I will be switching my daily driver gaming rig to Linux, finally! That FS is the tits!

I’ll keep an eye out for the new community!

I think both of those are perfect suggestions. Being a huge nerd with a strong moral compass, zip seemed to be one of the more similar to lemm.ee. I also heard piefed has some good policies and features!!

Thanks for the links!

You’re awesome. That sounds like a great project. What are you thinking of moving to for an instance so I can look for the community?

Here here. This was a special place and I’m glad it existed and I was part of it, too. I wish the admin(s) nothing but the best and hope they stay on Lemmy as one of us reg. users!

YOU DID THIS TO US!!!

In all seriousness, I’m sorry your community is going away. What kind of stuff was it for? Radio as in AM and FM? Ham? Frequencies for radio waves? Aliens?

Let me know where you end up and I’ll subscribe! I finally convinced my wife to join Lemmy on .ee. It is unfortunate that she’ll have to pick a new instance, but I get it why the effort outweighs the benefit of running an instance.

Edit This was also my first instance after reddit. I donated a few months ago to help with what I could. I, too, will miss it. As far as instances went, this one matched my personality the closest. Censorship was light but fair. Only now do I realize that it might have been a lack of admin intervention that made that possible!

I said the same thing recently and am currently trying TypeWise! So far it’s alright.

The screen with my Lenovo Yoga 720 (I think) is a convertible touch screen. The brightness never stays consistent in Mint. It constantly changes brightness no matter what I’m doing with it. However, I’m not sure it worked right, even with Windows 10. Still a decent machine.

Ombi for media requests.

My earballs!

You and I are in similar boats, except I only gave Windows 11 a single install on my personal gaming rig before going back to 10. With the threat of 10 going EoL, I’ll be forced to move to Linux soon, myself. After working in PC and Windows troubleshooting for over 20-years all my foyers into Linux have been met with self-imposed damage resulting in an abandoment of Linux. This happened with spare computers or server setups since Windows Vista.

I’m nervous about the future of my gaming addiction, but will not use Windows 11.

PEBCAK Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard!

Knew of an IT help desk employee who used this as a resolution in a ticket. Yeah, he got fired as soon as the customer looked up what it meant.

I will do that, thanks for the recommendation! I definitely need to get that knowledge/workflow down before I make my main driver a Linux machine.

I really need to learn how to do that. I installed SuSE something on my laptop and selected that file system but couldn’t find how to do the snapshot stuff. I’m sure I’m just dumb, but also exhausted, and mentally drained.

I hope to see this before the EoL date set for Windows 10 and a bunch of people throw out perfectly good machines to buy something that works with Windows 11.

Personally, I won’t use Windows 11 on my home machines. But my concern is that I install a distro this year and want to switch to SteamOS later, but would have to start over with customizations, etc. in the new distro. I wish SteamOS was available now for gaming rigs!

The source code for keyshare.link is out there and it does exactly what you talk about, but using reddit user access. Maybe someone could work within the license to code a similar tool for Lemmy users.

I remember this kind of shit when I worked at Caterpillar. I always assumed the requested permission messages just disappeared into the void. Of course, I was IT so my requests were usually asking for more than they’d want their help desk staff to have.

US government should buy them, not for the data, but the research and disease information. That was the most eye-opening things about the results. Until I got results, my family had no idea that we carried the CF gene.

It’s definitely a “red line”, but I work in a field that requires me to think about things long-term. To me, the genocide shit is bad and I am 100% behind Bibi and his administration being tried and hung for their atrocities. However, I also know it can get a whole lot worse for Palestinians, and the world was a whole, if anyone but a Democrat wins in November.

Sure, we keep sliding to the right. But at least with Harris in office, we stand a chance of reversing a further slide. Without, we are sure to continue the slide at an even faster rate.

Look past the shortsightedness of those that seek to distract you and try to see the bigger picture. We can’t do anything about the shit going on now if we don’t have a future.
