Sex work would probably be less stigmatized in a currencyless society
Thinking about this because of a greentext I saw earlier complaining about OF models....
Begging for all the Lemmy Audiophiles recommendations on computer speakers!
I haven’t bought computer speaker setup in well over a decade, but getting back into gaming, any suggestions?...
What happened to the smartest kid in your class?
Flatpak Firefox (and forks) very slow to start
While other flatpak apps have no problems. Any suggestions?
Why Are Rap*** & Ped** Protected In Jail?
It’s actually sick, they already get a light sentence and also getting protected by the justice system while the victim they violated is heavily traumatized, probably for life. And what’s crazier is it’s happening more, I’m seeing it daily now every time I scroll, there’s another case. Just a few days ago a middle aged...
Self-hosted Jellyfin CPU or GPU for 4K HDR transcoding?
Hey everyone, I’m building a new server to run Jellyfin (with a few other services like Pi-hole) and I’m stuck on GPU or CPU transcoding....
The increasing distrust many Americans have in modern medical advances is probably mostly due to our failing Healthcare system.
It’s easy not to trust a system associated with charging you $500 for Tylenol. Much easier (and occasionally even safer) to just smell some lavender and hope that helps. Go to an ED and you could just die of a stroke or heart attack in the waiting room or even get run over by somebody who died of a heart attack while driving...
Help a nerd choose a new phone after 7 years
I’m cross posting my own here, I hope it’s allowed. Maybe it will reach someone who has a similar problem....
In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is?
To clarify : “strength of character”
With discord planning to show ads, how can the fediverse/lemmy benefit from another proprietary program making itself worse? (Like it was with reddit)
Do you think that the fediverse has something to gain with the enshitfication of discord? Are there voice chat programs in the fediverse that can benefit from it?
Those who custom configure their kernel: what did you gain?
Curious to know the coolest things you achieved by configuring your kernel. I know kernel config can be boring, but I’m hoping someone will have an impressive answer....
I've Installed multiple Linux Distros on my Editing Rig to see how well Davinci Resolve Studio works. Here are the results.
So a couple of weeks ago, I made this post asking for help from those who used Linux and Davinci Resolve, and their experience. To those who’s response was effectively “I use arch btw”, I hear you, but that wasn’t the question I wanted to ask....
I often get bored of the Fediverse, but I'm doing my best to stay here.
I’ve been off and on with the Fediverse for sometime now. It’s a relatively friendly place full of fellow nerds, but with a few caveats…...
N100 Mini PC w/ 3xNVMe?
Not sure why this doesn’t exist. I don’t need 12TB of storage. When I had a Google account I never even crossed 15GB. 1TB should be plenty for myself and my family. I want to use NVMe since it is quieter and smaller. 2230 drives would be ideal. But I want 1 boot drive and 2 x storage drives in RAID. I guess I could...
Who owns the servers for Lemmy?
Trying to wrap my head around the fediverse. Is each instance like another person with a server? Could that person just shut it down whenever they wanted to?...

I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle....
Is there an app that could send me a notification every 30 minutes?
They say time is is the most valuable resources. Right now, time feels quicker for me these days and I often lose track of it....
Benefits of running 2 Wi-Fi networks from the same router? What are the downsides? (I don't know if there is a better community for this question)
I am worried that there is not really a benefit of doing that, just more noise and energy consumption.
If hemroids are common and can openly bleed, and people poop with hemroids, how do people not get infected buttholes all the time?
Please advise how to transfer P2P a 30 GB file
I have two computers with Windows 10. Preferably the simplest option, so that at the other end people with minimal IT competence can figure it out
New home server: what hypervisor/OS?
I have a couple of home server, both with Proxmox as hypervisor, one VM with Ubuntu 22.04 that does just Docker containers, one with Open Media Vault, one with Home Assistant (HA OS) and a couple of Windows VM to do some tests. Since I wanted to move from OMV, right now I see 2 options:...
Beer and Wine are vegan drinks.
want to get started but finding the technical side really overwhelming
I’d really like to get started with this stuff but finding the technical requirement exhausting....
What happens to my Corpse if I die in a Forest?
I was just randomly checking out what Funerals costs and was shocked how expensive it was! €3.500 to €5.500! I live in north Germany, and we have here some very deep Woods. So I was thinking what would happen if I just die there. Let’s say no one ever finds me. Are Animals just going to eat me, and will I just be gone in a...
