I see no use for the numlock key, I'd rather just have the numpad on the whole time. Are there actually cases where it is useful or people who for some reason prefer their numpad turned off?

I know this is not a feature oficially on lemmy as of now (at least the github github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397?ref=privacy… the issue is still open)...

I'm currently planning to build a new server after I discovered what my system uses in Idle. As I have to set up a new system anyways I would like to add a NAS to it to manige my storage. Currently I just have a zfs-Pool in proxmox for my Data-Drives and all VMs/Containers that need access have escalated rights and can directly...

I just switched over to feddit.uk to reduce the strain on lemmy.world. Either I’ve forgotten or am doing something wrong, because I can’t seem to subscribe in what I thought was the right way....

I’ve always been a “lurker” on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:...

I use the MX Linux distribution (Debian-based) as my dual-boot. Recently, I’ve started building a new PC, the crux of which will be a Radeon RX 7900xtx GPU. Since it showed up before everything else, I crammed it into my current PC to replace a GTX970 to test and play around....

So considering there’s a substantial push to get away from places like Reddit and Twitter, as an outsider I’m wondering how the fediverse is going to actually provide solutions to some already bad problems within higher resource platforms:...

I joined the fediverse like 2 weeks ago. I’m trying to find the answers to all my doubts reading discussions around, watching videos etc, but there are still some questions I’m looking an answer for. Here they are:...

I was thinking of setting up a home surveilance system using Frigate, and integrating it with Home Assistant. I’d probably have somewhere on the order of 10-15 1080p 30fps cameras. I’m not sure what components I should get for the server, as I am unsure of the actual processing requirements....

I should add that this isn’t the first time this has happened, but it is the first time since I reduced the allocation of RAM for PostgreSQL in the configuration file. I swore that that was the problem, but I guess not. It’s been almost a full week without any usage spikes or service interruptions of this kind, but all of a...

The rest of the day is spent exploring interesting thoughts and ideas.

As more people flock over to the fediverse from reddit, twitter and other centralised proprietary networks it is important that you keep your e-mail and other important accounts safe from hijacking attempts. Since anyone can simply spin up an instance and host users and communities it is important that you don’t divulge your...

I don’t know if that makes sense, but I know that propaganda and fake news are alarmingly prevalent today and the government has been known to distract its citizens from their evil deeds. Is there a website that lets users know what they should look out for? For example, what should we really be focused on while Ukraine is at...

I’ve replaced my old laptop with a new one and I have over 350GB worth of data to move over, moving all of it to an external drive and then moving them to the new laptop doesn’t seem efficient and it seems like it’s gonna take forever...

i have just seen that gfycat is shutting down. i love sticking in a GIF, but would love a way to keep and categorise my gifs, and be able to embed/copy them into my banter....

I’ve seen a lot of people who are still confused about instances and the various communities in them. Think of the Fediverse as Earth and the instances as countries. Countries have constitutions that establish the values of the country. Instances are the same....
