I really dislike ad driven publications. I’m not opposed to paying for quality news publication, but for something like NYT, there’s only a couple articles a month I come across that I’m really interested in reading. There problem is that there’s 4-5 other paywalled publications where I have that same issue. I’m...

I am planning to eventually build my own home server, and when I do I will hook it up via ethernet. But I do want to switch away from the generic FIOS router and use my own for more control over my data and security. Any recommendations?

Back in the 80’s I used to listen to a college station that added reverb to all the music–like it needed it back then. I’d like to add that effect to the music I play on Spotify( for nostalgia of course), is there a free/paid app that can do that? I looked but the only apps I found said it just edited MP3s not streaming...

I wonder why religious conservatives are mostly synonymous with capitalism supporters ? I mean arent most religions inherently socialistic ? What makes conservatives support capitalism , despite not being among the rich?

I dont use read reciepts on WhatsApp. I keep it off. So I cannot see if a person has read my message or the sender of a message cannot see Ihave read their message. Status update views are also hidden....

Hey ya all,...

I am currently running EndeavourOS on my laptop, and I have all of the “printer” packages from installation installed. My company uses a Papercut NG server to manage printing, and I have an account in the system.

I read on reddit that on Lemmy you can see users’ upvote/downvote history. I therefore expected to be able to see upvote/downvote breakdown by user for my own comments. But couldn’t find this. Does this feature exist or is that a myth?

Is anybody aware of any self hosted alternatives to Parrot.ai or Otter.ai? I’ve tried these services and I’m finding them very useful, but the price tag is a little steep. It seems like something that the open source community could solve. Anybody know of any projects, either existing or upcoming? Thanks!

How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

Now that ubuntu has updated their LTS kernel from 5.15 to 6.2 will mint follow suit in the same point release cycle?

Many of us came from Reddit and are still exploring Lemmy by browsing “Everything” or “All”....

I see the question asked a lot in Linux groups, so I hope this bit of knowledge may help someone here.

I didn’t find it on the wiki or anyone discussion about it

I’m mostly interested in disabling the command to create a root shell ‘machinectl shell @root’. Attempting to ‘systemctl disable systemd-machined’ doesn’t work....

It seems pretty clear that the two communities can co-exist, no need to advertise for the LW one

I’m not sure if this is the right community to ask, but I’m going to try anyway....

I feel like it would be a very interesting mix but I can’t think of any. I don’t play either of those genres very much though, so I might be missing something very obvious. Do you think it would work well together?
