The Diomede Islands are two islands in the Arctic Ocean, between Alaska and Siberia. Despite the distance being 4 kilometres, there is a time difference of 21 hours between them. Why?...

PoE Single Board/Micro/Mini Computer/Server
I have an 8gb Raspberry Pi 4 that has been a workhorse for years. I keep it for my not intense but essential networking purposes, NetBoot.xyz, Homepage, etc., because I can run it over PoE (edit: Power over Ethernet), so it is always on as long as my network is up....
[Urgent] How do you know your computer or phone isn't spying on you ?
This maybe a dumb question but i became paranoid all of a sudden and wanted some answers because i can’t find it anywhere else nor can i sleep without it. Like even if i did flash linux on a lets say amd laptop couldn’t the chip itself be spying on me ? Also i understand bootloaders are stored or rom is there a way to know...
open source amd GPU driver issues
I’ve been running Manjaro for a a few years now and don’t have very many gripes with the os opposed to some people that seem to hate it. The one major problem I have been battling is the random GPU resets under load for my 5600xt. Usually it’s when I’m playing semi intense games but sometimes just while watching YouTube....
Have you heard of Reiverr?
It’s an alternative jellyfin + radarr + sonarr (jellyseer) front end. It’s in very early stages but it looks and feels so good. I read on the issues that work will progress but there needs to be a lot of planning....
Why don't we refer to twins and triples as a litter?
Technically they’re littermates…
The greatest insult of our time is to accuse someone of being an AI chatbot.
The number of times I’ve seen this accusation in the last year is astounding.

How do i set the $LANG variable without using export? I have set my locale.conf to LANG=en_US.UTF-8 but LANG is still always set to en_US which is not valid. I’d prefer not to use .bashrc or /etc/. Thanks in advance!

Custom music during gameplay (ArkOS)
I’ve seen it asked (on Reddit) how to play custom background music while playing games on ArkOS. I wanted to share how I do it, in case others want to try it as well. I’m sure these instructions could be modified slightly for other Linux handhelds....

removedit for lemmy?
Is there such a thing for lemmy? I’ve noticed some… Overzealous moderation on lemmy, which annoys me to no end. I want to read the comments naturally, and not just what the power mods (yes, they are here too) deem acceptable.

Is 5G really good?
I’ve heard multiple issues with 5G, like range and stuff, effectively sacrificing range and reliability for even more speed just so that companies can market it better. Do you think 5G is a downgrade compared to 4G?
2G, 3G, 4G, 5G mobile data made some sense as it represents generational leaps in the technology itself but then Xfinity wants to advertise "10g" internet...
Comcast says it represents a 10 Gigabit cable internet network they are building (it doesn’t exist) so they are basically changing the meaning of the g from generation to gig to act like 10g is 5 generations better (or twice as fast)…or that they have a 10 gigabit network. Neither is accurate. It’s still just cable...

Self hosted NAS + Lightweight Game Streaming Solution?
I have an aging gaming desktop with a GTX 970 that I’ve previously used to let friends/family stream games. My area has a lot of fiber so it’s surprisingly usable, even got VR working. Problem is, I’d prefer to use it as a NAS most the time as it has plenty of drive bays and I need somewhere better to run jellyfin than my...
