I don’t usually update, but today I opened Xubuntu and the update manager popped up, so I clicked to install - it was just a 13 MB update. After updating, I opened Floorp and started seeing that all my icons at the taskbar, everything, started disappearing. It’s like I did “sudo rm -rf”! I’m not even mad. I always...

This was a replay, the first time I played I loved the story....

I am thinking about buying a home server for a wide range of things. I found some cheap old computers on amazon for around 80-90€.

Hi all, so as per title, when I use browser app to make a pwa or ‘add to homescreen’ it works, but then opens the home page not the actual link I had created. From memory there was a hack where you would put your phone offline, airplane mode I think’ and then it would save the link. But doesn’t work anymore. Any1 have...

I’m interested in helping friends tell the difference between fact and fiction, truth and hearsay and general stuff like that that gives peace of mind that they can defend themselves from gaslighting, makes life easier to live, and harder to be taken advantage of by propaganda. Just a few examples....

What have you all been playing?...

All the public Piped instances are getting blocked by YouTube but do small selfhosted instances, that are only used by a handful of users or just yourself, still working? Thinking of just selfhosting it....

Only recently discovered yt-dlp, despite its popularity. However I was wondering if I were to use this, should it be used behind a VPN when downloading videos off public websites?...
