I recently switched from wireless to wired headphones (Samson SR-850, probably the best for the very reasonable price) and my chair’s wheels instantly started eating its cable. Right now I’m using a small plastic hook that came with a face mask to keep it off the floor, but I’d like to hear other solutions.

After a decade of being a law abiding citizen and paying customer of every streaming service between here and the moon, I’ve given it all up and come back to the high seas....

Up till now I’ve been running Debian on a 2008 Dell tower as my homeserver. I just got 2 1tb drives for it so I want to upgrade to an actual dedicated NAS software to simplify how I manage it. The problem is, I only have 4gb of RAM in it. Any recommendations?...

The manual mentions that by default you can pan by holding middle click but my tablet does not have one, so I would like to change it to left click. Anyone knows how to do it? Thanks.

I’ve just installed Arch on my laptop and I’ve noticed the WiFi card seems to be generating a load of errors. I’m also dual booting Ubuntu server and it looks like that’s been generating similar logs although I’ve only ever used Ethernet on there:...

I’m thinking of changing careers completely from marketing to psychology. I’ve worked in marketing for 15 years and studied it at university level for 6. I’ve reached the top, mastered it, and I’m ready for a career switch up. I’d like to look at becoming a clinical psychologist (general)....

Not sure why this doesn’t exist. I don’t need 12TB of storage. When I had a Google account I never even crossed 15GB. 1TB should be plenty for myself and my family. I want to use NVMe since it is quieter and smaller. 2230 drives would be ideal. But I want 1 boot drive and 2 x storage drives in RAID. I guess I could...

I go to my inbox. I click messages. Then I click the plus icon. It asks me for a user. I input the user and nothing happens. Then I search and find the user again nothing happens. Why can’t I send messages in Lemmy?

I’m currently using the blocklists included with unbound in opnsense on a mini PC and I have used pihole on a pi which now operates my 3d printers instead. I haven’t tried any of the other network wide options. Has anyone made any blog posts or similar detailing performance testing of different options?...

I selfhost some tools and use duckdns for names resolution but it does not seem to be working today. My ISP updated some things on there end last night and I updated my local unbound server so I’m not sure which if either of these is also playing a role but I cant seem to access duckdns. I have tried to connect to it on my...

I will probably be harassed for this but I feel like I need to act....

This is the first time that I’ve tried to start customizing my system - beyond using a global theme from the KDE store. There’s still a few things that I’m trying to figure out. For example, I’m not the biggest fan of the KDE panel I have at the top. I want it to look nice but also be practical and fit in my workflow....

I can get behind murder. I feel like this, to some extend, is a genuine part of human behaviour. Even the horrific aftermath of such. But genocide truly feels inhuman to me. So I can never fundamentally understand how in history, civilizations went from point A to point B to Point Genocide. Any thoughts on this?

I have been working on a minecraft mod pack that has a mechanic where the player can fly between different worlds via the elytra. eg. the overworld -> moon -> mars etc. I have a few different directions I can take Mars’ design:...

I’ve installed TLP on my Lenovo ThinkBook laptop and was wondering if there are additional steps I can take to extend the battery life when using the laptop unplugged....

Discoverability in this context meaning the ability to more effectively find public communities/people of interest. Alongside improving this however, respecting people’s decisions on whether and how they may be found, if at all.

I don’t necessarily mean adult as in NSFW....

Do they just speak faster? Do the Indian words/pronunciation flow better/faster than English does? And they are simply trying to match the cadence?

I bit down wrong on a piece of chicken and smashed my bottom and top teeth together. One of my top front teeth chipped. It hurts at first and I have a mild headache. It mostly just feels weird and gritty against my tongue. It isn’t a big chip. It looks like a tiny slice was taken off the bottom of the tooth aside from the...

I am using the Steam Flatpak on OpenSuse Tumbleweed and when using the Steam interface, specifically when I get a chat message or try to respond to one, the Steam UI will hard freeze, as in a I can’t type or move windows or interact with anything and then 30 seconds or so later everything goes back to normal. Plasma is still...
