I’m sick of using google maps, they started putting gigantic ads for stores on the map and I’m tired of them tracking me. So I ask you Lemmy, what should I switch to?!...

Edit: solved i just used a paid app that gives you 3 free downloads...

Edit: apparently this is a very common form of Japanese storytelling called an isekai. There are 8 billion people in this world, no idea can be original. And sometimes you miss out on things many other people know. I’m clearly one of today’s lucky 10000.

Well since I’ve been mostly in customer service jobs I’d like for people to know that the reps don’t make the rules or decisions. When there is something about a store or service that’s undesirable such as prices then it’s something to bring up to upper management or just let them lose you as a customer. But you can be...

Basically, I currently work in a digital cinema company as a helpdesk for them and the job pays ok but is pretty stable as my colleagues have all been there for years. I have an interview soon for a FAANG company to be on their IT Helpdesk. It’s a job that will give me a lot of good experience, but it is a 6 month contract...

Hello all, I’m looking to buy 4-8 controllers for some couch coop games and haven’t found any clear winners so far. I’m leaning 2.4Ghz as I’ve heard problems about bluetooth controllers disconnecting on the steam deck and always appreciate less latency. I also don’t need any fancy features like gyro or touchpads, just...

I’m not sure if this counts as a “patient gamer” because I played them to death years ago…but I’ve been playing both again recently and they’re just perfect little games with a ton of replayability. They’re not retro (FTL 2012, ITB 2018) but they’re old enough to regularly go on sale which is great!...

I’m trying to decide on a distro for my n100 mini pc. It’ll be for watching content, browsing the web, using discord And playing music. I have Garuda running in it right now just as a tester to see how it did at emulation and honestly it ran 3DS games pretty swell lol. But it feels very bogged down overall. Anything really...

I just bought a handheld emulator (Anbernic RG35XX) and I’m now overwhelmed with options....

This is kinda blowing my mind right now....

I am sorry, but this is a long one....

A while back there was some debate about the Linux kernel dropping support for some very old GPUs. (I can’t remember the exact models, but they were roughly from the late 90’s)...

I wanted to have a separate laptop where I only use the terminal for my use cases. At the moment I am somewhat confident using the terminal, but I think limiting myself to tty only would build my confidence even more. Any tips?...

Basically everything that gets posted on here is true. No one would post false information on lemmy. Which reminds me of the time I was petting a dog on the moon.

Sort of similar to the Great Filter theory, but applied to time travel technology.

I have Fedora and Windows installed in the same drive in my laptop. The drive has 512GB and it’s divided so that each OS has 256GB. Fedora’s partition is encrypted using the option it shows in its installer....

Given the state of technology, politics, and social media, we all share fears about interacting with bots, or having our social media manipulated. We know that this is happening on other platforms that are driven by engagement/profit models. However, Lemmy is about people – like you! While this platform is not immune to bots,...

Have Bill gates in a sleep over, who will tell you the secrets to screwing people over and spyware tricks...
