Hi,...
do you use cotton leggings? would you recommend them?
I don’t see much the point: cotton breaks easier than polyester, is not as expandable as spandex, cotton absorbs moisture, whereas polyester keeps it out....
Death Stranding UI is fucking horriffic.
I’m about 8 hours into Death Stranding Director’s Cut, and I just can’t do this. I love the meditative, lonely feel of the gameplay, and I’m always down for a bonkers and absurd Kojima story. I truly hope future games implement a similar traversal system where you really need to watch your footing. But this game is...
Is there a way to stop gnome from using dGPU?
Been running endeavor OS on my MSI delta 15 (all AMD with no nvidia card) with KDE and it switches between integrated and dgpu like it should. However after installing gnome and using it for a bit I noticed that it was always having the dgpu idling. This basically cuts my battery life in half, and making it less than desirable....

Can you tell excel sheets which were created using a pirated version of MS Office?
My friend works for a company which requires her to use Microsoft specific application, she didn’t really want to switch to Win 11 and choose to just use Wine Linux package and install a 2016 version of MS office on her Linux laptop. That’s all well and good, but this company she is working for servers other clients at...
Switching back to Android (GrapheneOS), anything cool I've been missing out on?
Long story short: I don’t like iOS but have been using an iPhone for a couple years due to lack of personally viable hardware options on the Android side of things. I’ve gotten tired of waiting and found a good deal on an open box Pixel 8 Pro which arrives in a few days, I’ll be installing GrapheneOS on it....
Help, I have a path variable issue!
I’ve set some path variables on my Raspberry Pi, but since I upgraded the D compiler version, I need to change it, by removing the reference to the old version, as the two would collide with each other. The issue is, I used some now obscure tutorial, which I no longer can find, and it’s not found in the usual culprit...
Intermittent Video & Freezing
My neighbor was having issues with his PC freezing up during games, saying his CPU fan specifically) would ramp up. He then bought new parts and asked me to build him a new PC to replace it which I did (we exchange handiwork). Now he’s wanting to give his old parts to a friend of his who had an even older PC. So I’ve got...
What is the word for someone who is friends with different groups but doesn't have loyalty to any one group?
The closest word I can think of is a sycophant but that’s too strong word and not exactly what I’m looking for. The word I’m thinking of has negative connotations and it’s for someone who is friends with different groups but only at a superficial level and isn’t necessarily honest about who all they’re friends with....
Do bike tires increase pressure in summer?
I know bike tires will lose pressure in colder seasons because the air temp causes the pressure to drop, but is the inverse true? Does bike tire pressure go up in summer due to heat?...
How easy is deepfake now? I just watched a show and I want to change the actor to an old timey one. NOT PORN. Just a cool show I think would be suited to this actor and I can't get it out of my head.
For the few who want to know the show and the actor, it’s “Monsieur Spade,” an AMC produced take on Sam Spade post-America, retired and living in France. I think it’s really well done, and Clive Owen does a great job of playing San Spade but…I REALLY want to replace his face and voice with Bogart’s....

Lemmy.ml is acting as a proxy instance for Hexbear and should be defederated by any instances that defederate from Hexbear
The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It’s absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn’t be allowed to continue.

<p>Sharing android recorded video with iPhone</p>
Hello everyone! I encountered a weird bug yesterday that I wanted to run by you guys to (hopefully) find a solution. I recorded a short (10s) video on my pixel 8. Then I sent it to my wife’s iPhone via signal. She then tried to send it to her family via imessage and upload it to social media, but was unable to do anything with...
