I’ve been thinking about a taxonomy of Roguelikes that should help us speak more clearly about this genre - or group of genres - that we love. I’d rather do this than just call things “roguelites”, which basically doesn’t mean anything. So here we go!...

I’ve seen a lot of posts about the Red Hat situation, and it made me want to talk about something I’ve been thinking about for some time....

Over reliance on algorithms has degraded the user experience to the point that the average user is drowning in ragebait and extremist politics, because they drive up engagement. Just like a toddler, algorithms don’t discriminate between good and bad attention, so everything that gets clicks is thrust forward. Now, you could...

Hello everyone! To start out, I’d once again like to say thank you to every single one of you for being here. We’re building something awesome here together, and I’m grateful you’ve been with us so far....

For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.

As the title says

I want to build Linux From Scratch so i can assert dominance on the “i UsE aRCh By tHe WAy!” guys. Any advice?

Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don’t really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I’ve been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5. I don’t see the point of my ‘upgrade’. I sold it and come back to my Note 9. Gaming? Most of them are p2w or microtransaction...

What are some good tech related podcasts you can recommend? I’ve listened a lot to Darknet Diaries but lately, I’ve found it to become less and less interesting as he mostly just interviews some pentesters....

Just picked up an APC 48u server rack. There were no pictures of it in the post and I did not notice until I got it home and set up, that the rack rails have threaded holes instead of square cage nut holes. I can’t seem to determine the thread size and pitch, and have a thread gauge coming. Until then, does anyone know...

My cousin gave an old acer switch that she wasn´t using, its extremely underpowered with 2gb of ram, an old atom and 32 gigs of storage. I tried ubuntu with gnome because thats what i use on my main laptop and while it has amazing touchscreen support it barely runs. I then decided to try lxqt and it runs great but the touch...

As the title implies, should I do it? I love Arch so far, and I can fix most issues that pop out. However, I sometimes wish to start fresh without too much hassle, but I get a feeling NixOS isn’t as mature as Arch....

Wanted to know if there’s such a thing as Debian based distro but make it Rolling release, is that something already in existence or will I have to just tinker a lot within Debian?

I’ll explain with an example - there are 3 Lemmy instances A, B, C...

Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I’m done dealing with passwords....

Hi all,...

In Germany we have a relatively good social security system. If you are unemployed, there are basically two types of unemployment benefits that you can apply to. If you don’t qualify for the first one, normal unemployment benefits (ALG1), then you would qualify for the second one (ALG2), which covers people who are not...

Which is the better protocol overall based on the current information?
