I want to get my partner a replacement for an aging chromebook. I was thinking it would be easiest to just grab another super budget chromebook and call it a day. But the more I read about google and chrome, the less I want to do with them....
So far, the cheapest I found was a little over $40 for about 30 cards.
Hi everyone! I’m currently investigating some pretty strong framedrops in X4 Foundations on my Linux daily driver. The framerate is usually in the 50s and I’m wondering if something isn’t working right since I’m experiencing some massive frame drops. Here’s some data I have accumulated from my latest gaming session:...
The VPN provider I use has servers in multiple countries. I was wondering if privacy laws would make it better to VPN to some countries over others when pirating.

I try to play “Empyrion” on Linux via Steam. I have tried other games like “Satisfactory” without any issues and with a better performance as on Windows. But with Empyrion i get a max of 10 - 13 fps, where i have ~60fps on Windows on the same laptop. Graphic adapter is a nVidia 1050 GTX and OS is Arch Linux. If i...
At visiting my parent’s this holiday weekend I tired to gently tell my parents that their coffee brew is very bitter. The response I get back is something like, " I like it strong."...
I’m sorry if this post is a bit too long or emotional, but I would really appreciate if someone read it and told me their thoughts. I feel very isolated in my experiences, and I would really appreciate being heard....
It could be physically, mentally or in some cases spiritually
I want to get back into reading, so I’m thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it’s possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books....
I recorded some voice clips for my presentation with Microsoft’s Voice Recorder app, but when i tried to insert the audio files into my presentation, PowerPoint claims it only supports WAV format, (despite Microsoft’s own website claiming it also supports m4a)....
That’s right. I almost forgot my favourite Peertube idea to date. I used to write parody lyrics to songs all the time on Mastodon. I figure, why not learn how to make full-blown parody songs?
I’ve made a tonne of videos showcasing myself playing Minetest and SuperTuxKart, as well as a good variety of other fully libre games....
And if so, how much? Less, same or more than if it was actually charging something?...
Hey Linux community. I have an ipod and I’m trying to put music on it. Itunes simply will not run and it won’t recognise stuff I put on it through files. Is there any thing I can try/use? Information: Linux type: Linux Mint Cinnamon Ipod type: 1.1.2 PC, Ipod Nano, 7th Gen
It seems simple to implement, and it might lead to more engagement (for the platforms that care about that)....
I’m looking for more ways to find games from Japanese indie developers on Steam. One curator I immediately found and subscribed to was J-Arcade, but I’m wondering if there’s any other sources people could recommend inside or outside the Steam ecosystem.
Again, please tell me if there is a better way to do this....
I just started to selfhosting services and want to try with the *Arr ecosystem. What newbie tutorial recomend for start with it?...
I’m trying to de-Google my life and self-host more. One tricky point with me is calendaring. I can get a CalDav server running and syncing with my Android phone without much hassle, but I haven’t yet found a server or client that can send e-mail reminders for events, rather than just pop-up notifications....

I noticed that Linux server distros are using LVM as default. What is so good about LVM, and when should I use it? Is there a GUI for managing LVM volumes like GParted, or is it just through the terminal? How is it different from RAID in using multiple drives for one volume?
