If these were your only choices, what would you do?
You are serving yourself pasta and you have zero access to tomato sauce. All you have in your pantry is ketchup (catsup.) Would you eat the plain pasta, or add ketchup for flavor?...
Email is the oldest Federated service.
I was struggling to wrap my head around how federated social media works until I realized that email has basically been doing the same thing for 30 years. Different email servers are like instances of a federated network. You can send emails to people from within a single server or you can send emails to people on any other mail...
What the hell just happened?
I need a little help here. I run into an unexpected occurrence, one that leaves me still wondering how it came about. I logged into my Lemmy account to disable 2FA because from my engagements, it’s not functional (if it is, kindly help me). I was required to provide a token when I couldn’t even obtain the codes then I run...

HyperX Quadcast S mic is preventing my system from sleeping. What's the best way to debug and submit a bug report?
Every time I plug in my Quadcast S USB mic into my Arch Linux box, I can’t properly go into deep sleep. Unplugging it before attempting to sleep makes it work again, but its annoying to have to do that every time. How do I debug this and where do I even submit a bug report for this?...
lemmy.world has bent the knee to corporations. Consolidated comments into body.
I don’t think this is EEE, I think this is a chance for meta to dominate the narrative by drowning us out with algorithmically curated censorship, distractions, hatred, outrage etc. I would join threads if I want threads, I would be on Reddit if I want corporate influence....

Unfortunately, one package (libnvidia-compute-470) seems to not get the message and won’t remove itself. Quick search around the internet on solutions have not resolved the issue yet. Wondering...
