Just picked up an APC 48u server rack. There were no pictures of it in the post and I did not notice until I got it home and set up, that the rack rails have threaded holes instead of square cage nut holes. I can’t seem to determine the thread size and pitch, and have a thread gauge coming. Until then, does anyone know...

The best part of the fediverse is that anyone can run their own server. The downside of this is that anyone can easily create hordes of fake accounts, as I will now demonstrate....

Welcome to the weekend, part two....

So I’ve been trying to get myself accustomed to this place and understand whats going on....

So, I spent the last few days researching and then finally setting up mailcow. I got my domain name, my wildcard certificate, got all the containers up, disabled ipv6 (I don’t have it set up on my home router and am too lazy to set it up tbh), created a domain and an mailbox, etc....

Personally it would be Republic Commando - the books were good too, but I just want a sequel!

I run a pretty locked down Firefox browser and I noticed when browsing lemmy.world that the browser wants to pull stuff from a long list of other instances, which fails because they aren’t trusted. Is this normal? I thought an instance would collect the things you are subscribed to and store them locally so that you didn’t...

Both are federated right? Getting a bit confused - are they interchangeable? Can I view lemmy posts/communities in Mastodon? Similar to how I can view lemmy.ml content with a lemmy.world account?

TLDR - Why don’t Lemmy instances use methods like affiliate links to increase their funding?...

Most of what works in the Star Trek movies evolve from what we know about the characters. Kirk’s love for his ship and history with the Klingons, Picard’s history with the Borg, Data’s struggle with emotions, that sort of thing....

This is corny, but thanks for being awesome! It feels so nice to see this community grow out of a shared vision of what the internet should be....

I’m looking to download a number of educational youtube videos for future reference. Looking for a reliable way to download videos. OS is Ubuntu. FF extensions and docker containers all good. I don’t really want to install an executable on bare metal unless it is a flatpak....

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....

But I remember seeing that group being blacklisted and called out in multiple Piracy communities and wikis a few years ago....

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...
