My lemmy instance seems to be using a lot of storage, I am the only one using it and for like 10 minutes a day. it’s currently using about 122 gb, after about 3 months of usage...
When I was a child I had a revelation; if Santa isn’t real then the tooth fairy also isn’t real. Then growing up, if the moon landing isn’t real then nothing (of the same kind ) we are told is real.

New Lemmy user here. I have two points of improvement I’d like to note, but am not sure where the actual ‘responsibility’ lies....
This instance (lemmy.film) and its communities have died! (sadly!)...
Hey folks. Got a pixel 7 pro, and it’s been alright, except suddenly, if I press the fingerprint sensor on the lock screen for just a split second, it makes the WHOLE SCREEN go full-brightness, with a green tinge. I know it’s always lit up the scanner area, which is all it lights up if I hold the sensor, but if I release it...
I’ve been thinking about making this thread for a few days. Sometimes, I play a game and it has some very basic features that are just not in every other game and I think to myself: Why is this not standard?! and I wanted to know what were yours....
Using WinToUSB I made an existing Win11 externally bootable as my Laptop only has one NVME slot....
Is there someone who is able to hack a Secured Certificate PDF password? I need help to apply the root crt to my PDF but I do not know the Password.
For my first goal, I want to get around my ISP’s CGNAT so I can access my NAS outside my network. Tailscale doesn’t work. Attempting to access my NAS always goes through their relays. From what I’ve gathered, a VPS is a good way to get around this so I got the basic $1/mo Racknerd KVM VPS. I’d like a performant way to...

I need extremely small tiling windows, say something with only a width/height of 10px. However, by experimentation I found that my window manager Sway (and likely also i3) has a hard-coded minimum height of 60px and minimum width of 100px....
Edit: 10/23 I took a lot of advice from here, I bought an avocado yesterday and I tried it today. It was perfect! The taste was incredible. I didn’t need to salt/season it to hide anything. I am in a different state right now but when I get home I’ll buy one at home using my knowledge I now have and hopefully it’ll be...
Hi. I’ve been using powerlevel10k for a long time, but a few days ago, I decided I wanted to customize it a bit. I opened the .p10k.zsh file, and I was shocked. It’s really massive, with TONS of options. I’ve been digging through for a few hours already, and it’s absolutely amazing how much you can customize it without...
Hi, when I was a reddit faker (I haven’t relapsed, I’ve stayed out of reddit and never posted another fake story, im cured) I wondered if someone the mods would figure out the tens of accounts that came from my computer and noticed I was the writer of many fake stories....
If you think about it, there are already tools that can do pretty convincing face swaps with few clicks and just from one low res photo at whatever angle. Long are gone the times you had to train the models for hours and had to have few hundred photos to just get “okay” fake. Once deepfake video creation becomes this simple,...
Was thinking about this today, pretty unique time way back in my gaming past. Belonged to a clan that would play things like War Rock (old F2P game), Battlefield 2, early CoD games, etc....
In short I need a cheap external disc drive and dont want to cough up the 20$ and buy online so thrift store it is. I cant really come up with a way to test these usually usb powered drives besides somehow setting up a computer or asking the workers for help (doubt they will). Does anyone have an idea to narrow down if a drive...
For context: I have an AMD GPU, so drivers will not be a problem. I’ll prefer whichever one has more up-to-date and frequently updated packages. Wayland is a must.
