Seriously, though. How often do you think of the Roman Empire?
I know this is a joke/meme, but I sincerely think of the Roman Empire a surprising amount of times. I find myself obsessing over how Roman citizens were living just as complex lives as we are today, or about Marcus Aurelius’ life and philosophy, or about how the Republic fell and became a totalitarian state.

I’m using Ubuntu 22.04 with a Bluetooth dongle that should be Bluetooth 4.0 but the only controller that will connect is my dualshock 3 . Ubuntu does not seem to detect my dualshock 4 or dualsense controllers through usb or Bluetooth. Every where I check online says it should just work out of the box . Any trouble shooting...
Moving to Arch/EndeavorOS from PopOS?
I’ve been using PopOS for a few months now, and I’m interested in Arch, but I’m worried about whether or not I have enough experience to do that successfully. Also, I have an Nvidia GPU until I start a new build in the next year or so. I don’t know if that’ll be a problem in Arch. It was a major issue with Fedora for...
My laptop's touchpad is emitting joystick events
Using my touchpad seems to act as if it’s a joystick - If I touch the edges it acts like I’ve pulled the joystick to the far edge of its movement, etc. sort of like how a steam controller’s touchpads work when emulating a joystick. However, it also just acts like regular mouse input so it’s only noticeable in games that...
FOSS RPG or adventure game for Android with enough content to kill ~3 hours?
I know Battle for Wesnoth (not an RPG) and it’s great on PC, probably on tablet too, but a bit annoying to play on a phone so I’ll pass....

Post your favorite icon pack / cursor / theme for your DE
Let’s be honest, the rankings of gnome-look are weird at best and there is no good resource to gauge what icons / cursors / themes people like to use in their everyday DE....
Why, as a male, when emotionally do I only feel accepted by women but not by men?
Edit2: It’s a subjective perception I’m talking about. Are you offended? Why?...
Some questions about Soulseek
Hello pirates! I’ve recently started high school, which means that I now get money from the state, which also means that my parents no longer pay for my Spotify premium. I could probably afford it, but I’d rather save my money, so I’ve been looking into different ways of obtaining music for free....
What human power-ups/power-downs would you choose? Why?

[Weekly thread] What is the best movie you watched last week? 23 September
In The Empire Strikes Back, why does Han significantly outrank Luke?
Luke blew up the freakin’ Death Star and he only gets to be commander. Han wants to skip out on the whole rebellion thing and he gets to be a general.

What's happening with Rust?
For a good month, it was nearly impossible to avoid hearing about it. Now, I can’t find any news.
Lemmy feels so much more welcoming than R*ddit... And it's weird
Can someone post hate comments so I feel at more normal?
FOSS Android Keyboard that supports password manager auto-fill like Gboard does?
I’m slowly but surely switching everything I use to FOSS alternatives and after using Gboard for a while thanks to it’s good swipe typing, I moved to OpenBoard for the same reason. Unfortunately, the fact that I can’t auto-fill my password via 1Password is bugging me (on top of less-than-ideal autocorrect). You guys know...

Is there a website that lists the response time of fediverse instances over time and their average?
I find something like this very interesting. Additionally, I hope that awesome-lemmy-instances will merge this feature since the low number of blocked users and consistent low latency are the two main things I look for when searching for a new instance.

If you loved Sean Lock's comedy... you should know he wrote & starred in a very funny little show called 15 Storeys High
Making this post because for some reason this show has flown completely under the radar for many. I had no idea it existed until it was mentioned on a comedian podcast I listen to (Bud Pod)....
Where do you fall politically?
I’m hoping this doesn’t start a fight, I’m just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women’s rights, environmentalism,...
