As I understand it, X11 has many inherent security concerns, including programs being able to read the contents of other windows and intercept keystrokes. Wayland addresses these concerns but at the moment breaks certain functions like screen readers, cursor warping, and the ability of a program to resize its own window....

I couldn’t find a “grammar help” community so I thought this might be a good place to pose this question. Sorry for asking something that boils down to “please help me with my homework” but I’m at a loss. I’m supposed to be using MLA format....

So I’m looking at trying am Immutable Linux Desktop (uBlue Aurora probably). One thing I’m not clear on is how to run GUI apps during development. From what I understand I should create a container with distrobox, install my toolchains in it and start developing. I’m used to containers for CLI and server work, but I’m...

It seems YT started another attempt at blocking alternative clients. They changed something in their API and both SmartTube and Tubular (NewPipe fork) are completely broken. Apparently it started happening this past week, but we personally just felt it today....

I want to use myanonymouse to download/seed books but it requires you to download from the same IP as you use to browse the website. My qBittorrent is in docker container on my home server, using gluetun with a VPN....

Hi Lemmy....

I’m focused on NES, SNES, N64, Master System, and Genesis at the moment. I’ve just about reached the end of the cheap NES games and bought an Everdrive N8 Pro earlier this year. Mainly for ROM translations and homebrew, but I will admit to playing some of the higher dollar games on it. I’d much rather play actual carts...

You will now sing every new limerick you hear for the rest of your life.

A couple months ago I tried to buy Ghost of Tsushima but in a drunken stupor accidentally bought Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. I didn’t realize my mistake until I was like an hour into the game (again, drunk) so when I contacted Playstation trying to get a refund they told me I was ineligible for a refund due to already...

This is a part from an IBM server dated 2008 that I want to reuse in my new computer. It essentially converts from 1 SAS port to 4 SATA ports. I’ll use the raid card to connect to it via SAS, but I do not know what the power port is and what the connector on the top is either

My Linux Mint Cinnamon won’t boot up. It’s getting stuck on this screen and I don’t know what to do to proceed. Before this screen appears it shows the LM logo for a moment....

I install Nvidia drivers using NVCleanstall and leave GE uninstalled since I never really use it. Do driver updates that include game optimizations still apply?

As you may have noticed, the crawler at lemmyverse.net isn’t picking up anything from instances on versions 0.19.4 or 0.19.5....

I know this may seem trivial to many, but I have not found any remarks by Elon Musk that are definitively sexist (including transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic, etc.)....

What steps can be taken when there are no seeders available for a torrent? Are there alternative websites, aside from YTS.mx and 1337x, that are reliable for discovering movies?

Dear lemmings,...

Thinking about the gaming magazines I used to read as a kid in the ‘90s. Some of them have found their way online thanks to preservationist efforts, but most are seemingly gone forever. (I’m talking about the particular magazine I read as a kid, many others have complete or near-complete collections available online in the...
