Hey guys, I saw this in my VPS when checking history:...

Manjaro: Can't access smb share with GTK-based apps

Hello,...

Is it me, or the hive mind mentality has come over here as well?

I’ve posted some controversial stuff, and I understand why I would be getting down voted for that. But I see some of my posts and comments are in the negatives for seemingly no reason at all? I don’t really care about the karma because I can’t see it anyway, but I’m worried that comments and posts here are gonna get...

What are some examples of cute as a look for men/masculine folks?

Sexy men/masculine looks are about as easy to find as for women/feminine looks, but cute seems a little less obvious....

Oh god, we're about 10 years away from Zoomers grumbling that "kids these days wont know what Tweeting is!"

My Moto 5g (2022) keeps going down exactly 4 notches of volume on its own

I hope it’s okay to ask for support here. I have a 2022 Motorola 5G phone, and it keeps turning down the volume on its own by exactly four notches. Is it possible this is some kind of setting somewhere? Maybe I have accidentally turned this on, and it’s trying to protect my hearing or something?

Kirk sticking around?

It’s been fun seeing so much of Kirk this season, but does that mean he’s now a regular? I don’t see how he could take a position on the Enterprise for years yet, so would that imply he just keeps coincidentally visiting all the time? Starts to strain plausibility after a while.

There's a new app that allows you to play Windows games on Android

The GitHub page for the project...

The opposite of "Ladies and Gentlemen" would be "Whores and Scoundrels".

Which sounds rad as fuck. Like how you’d open a speech for the Guild of Calamitous Intent.

Does Guinness give you nitrogen burps?

From a networking perspective, does the Fediverse strike anyone else as "optimistic"?

Usually, when you open a website, that site might be pulling live data from somewhere, but it’s from a database on the same server. If you click a Fediverse link, and no-one else from your instance has already done so, it seems like your instance has to contact a remote site, pull the data and render it, in the same timeframe...

State of Android emulation on Linux (with viable 3D performance)?

Any recommendations of countries to block from server logins?

I run my own email server, and a friend received a compromised laptop from work which resulted in a spam attack from Russia yesterday. Turtle settings saved the days with thousands of emails still in the queue when I saw the problem, however it made me realize that everyone with accounts on my server are local, do not travel,...
