How do you know if your server (e.g. lemmy.world) is federated with another server?

I want to see a list for each popular server (e.g. the top 10 lemmy instances) and I want to see - for each instance - with whom they federate. How can I do this? Any sure-fire way to know if a instance like HexBear.net is being federated with lemmy.world? How do you know?

What item have you been using on a daily basis for the longest amount of time?

Sometimes I will use something and realize I’ve owned it forever. It’s a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never...

when will be your last time to vote for the "lesser of two evils"?

When will be your “this is the last fucking time I’m voting for the ‘lesser of two evils’, then I don’t care after that, let this country burn to the ground”? For me, this is basically it. This is last election I’m going for that " lesser of two evils" bullshit. After that I’m done. It’s just pointless. Let’s...

how can I change Ubuntu to have default settings (everything, apps, icon size, color, etc) without losing any other software or files??

I recently became interested in using operating systems or software in the most vanilla way possible!! Without changing anything, just getting new files and other stuff. I’ve changed a lot of things from Ubuntu (for example uninstalling Rhythmbox and getting VLC) and I honestly want all the Ubuntu GNOME vanilla software back,...

Need help: accessing all my containers by name

I’m to the point now where my little home device has enough services and such that bookmarking them all as nas-address:port is annoying me. I’ve got 3 docker stacks going on (I think) and 2 networks on my Synology. What’s the best or easiest way to be able to reach them by e.g. pi-hole and such?...

How to bypass a metered connection?

In North America, using Xfinity for reference. I want to create both a home NAS and offline Wiki/media backup. Problem is to get the amount of data I need would blow through my plan and throttle my speed. I guess I could try and do it over a longer period or download just before the billing cycle renews so even if I go over it...

[Question] Are you cooking something other than turkey for Thanksgiving?

My wife and I rarely cook turkey for Thanksgiving. This year we’re coming Cornish hens. In previous years we’ve cooked duck, leg of lamb, and rib roast. It’s not that we don’t like turkey, but there are lots of other things that I think I’d prefer eating....

Laptop keyboard and USB keyboard getting borked

My laptop keyboard died a few days ago, which was fine I guess, it has been a while, but for some reason my membrane USB keyboard is also broken. I don’t know why but Ctrl, Alt, Windows, f5, and f10 don’t work, with Alt and f10 now binded to left click. I’ve tried all the fixes I could find: uninstall keyboard drivers,...
