I sign into my account from home and work, with both machines running the same version of Linux and Firefox. My computer at home has never signed me out, but at work I get signed out randomly during the day at least once a week....

Today I logged in and it turned on dark mode. I can’t figure out how to turn it off either. I looked through settings and poked around but I can’t figure out how to turn it off.

I don’t mean IPA symbols (which I can’t read) but rather characters from a normal alphabet being used to phoneticise a word, e.g. excerpt is pronounced “[EK] + [SURPT]”. What would this be called? Letter-based phoneticisation?

Good afternoon all, I have half-assed my backups for 15 years, and it is not sustainable, and I need your help! I have the following setup: 1x Raspberry Pi 4 with a WD USB3 MyBook 4TB as a NAS target using OpenMediaVault. This works well enough, but is not in my mind a long term viable solution. 1x Apple Airport TimeCapsule...

Hi all,...

Is the discrimination worth it as a deterrent? Or is it just to save the instance companies $$$?

Just snapped a picture of my Macy (full name MacyGrey) napping on a warm fall day at home. She’s a rescue, but I think she’s a Chartreuse breed of cat. Ten years old, and still acts like a kitten here and there.

Jack keeps proving that new riffs are endless. Many years ago, people were saying that classic hard rock is gone. Jack White shows up and proves everyone wrong and keeps doing it, IMO. Lazaretto is a good example, and it is heavily influenced by the 1980s.

We have had a Macbook Air (A1466) laying around for years after it became useless due to not getting any more updates so modern browsers wouldn’t run, etc. etc....

Hello Everyone,...

Over the last decade, people called for a new narrative regarding climate change. One that is less doomerism and more positive. They managed to do that. The same needs to happen for the internet....

Currently lemmy is like the speedboat next to the heavy steam boat of Mastodon etc. While lemmy is still dynamic and flexible and can introduce new features easily without scaring off its established user base, mastodon can not do such experiments so easily. Now, if lemmy gains more momentum in the fediverse and establishes...

I’ve been looking around for some more communities to subscribe to and thought I should ask you guys

I accidentally picked too large a cup size and realized I have no idea how to stop the brew. I remember this happening once at an office Keurig and we just opened the lid making a hot mess everywhere. Is there really no way of emergency stopping the brew?

Hi, do you think lemmy would be as popular as Reddit ? I mean, many subreddits have much more posts compared to communities on lemmy… sometimes I scroll through Reddit sub top of month and see no end. At lemmy mostly I see 10 posts monthly… I do like concept of moving to lemmy, but it might make no sense if people’s are no...
