A family member of mine in Germany is looking for a laptop in the 100-200€ price range. It would be okay to buy used and it shouldn’t be one of those modern Celeron laptops. It should still have a fairly slim design and a processor at least good enough to run Minecraft at low settings with ~30fps on Linux. Is this even a...

I’ve got an old Lenovo Tab3 850M table, running Android 6.0.1...

Hello there! I hope you're doing well. We are in need of new moderators, and would love it if you helped us out here!...

Hello everyone, my company (our department is of around 150+ developers/machine learning people/researchers) is currently considering switching from Windows to Gnu+Linux for company devices (as in the machines we use in our daily work) and we are currently in the phase of collecting requirements. I’m not in charge of the...

I moved to Linux Mint fairly recently but still dual boot for a couple of programs that require Windows. I avoid Windows when I can but I like to play The Sims 4 and want to play it on Linux so I tried to install it on Steam (I own it on EA but it’s free on Steam right now and I haven’t been able to get Bottles to run the EA...

Most of us gotta pick a practical choice instead of what we really wany.

What the title says. I was looking into paperless-ngx but it seems to offer no built-in security. I’d ideally want some kind of encryption and if i enable remote access have some control over sensitive documents

I know that GrapheneOS has a lot of security features that make it basically impossible to compromise your phone. And that it has a lot of control over permissions and has some privacy features. But it also has a Google Services compatibility that would allow you to use Google services, which would allow Google to harvest a lot...

Well, my friend, he’s kinda poor he can’t afford some books and some streaming services, so he pirates. He pirate books, audiobook and videos and other stuff. Sometimes he buys books he likes a lot out of loyalty to the author (yeah, I don’t understand it either), he likes to read physical books, but yeah, if he hates the...

I’m on Lemmy.ee but it seems I can no longer post pictures. Looking for a reliable instance without a lot of restrictions (I. E. Doesn’t block pirate communities) and allows picture posting....

Has anyone else noticed that Wikis for most games just aren’t as complete anymore?...

And by “truly stupid” I mean any question that upsets the straights.

I actually enjoy this weird episode a lot. Then again, one of my favourite VOY characters is Neelix, so what do I know? What’s your take on this bizarre episode?

In Chinese culture, red is a lucky colour; it’s often used for gift giving or weddings. Similarly in Hinduism, red is considered lucky (as far as I’ve read) and brides wear red at their weddings. The only commonality I can see between Indian culture and Chinese culture (in terms of beliefs) is Buddhism, is it because of this...

I am honestly kinda curious how exactly you manage your servers and keep them up to date, I feel like there is a linux patch every week or so, which would usually require a reboot. Do you all deploy live patching, how you become aware of critical stuff in your otherwise busy lives, RSS?

Thank you! You folks just are the best!...

I’ve learned about them in school, but I’ve never heard anyone say something is 8 decameters long or anything like that. I’m an American.

I like to build pranks with some psychological horror, not just a jump scare. Help me brainstorm pls....

Title, and thanks.

Valet parking seems to be getting more common at some city locations that don’t have a good parking situation....

Jocular ones are welcome too (and no doubt inevitable), but I’m looking more for “sensible” ones. Some examples:...
