What do package managers do? Install packages, obviously! But that is not everything. In my opinion, package managers do enough to be characterized as general automation frameworks. For example:...
The internet used to be where you found the latest information. But it’s old enough that you could easily find info on 10-20 year old articles that are out of date and irrelevant
Here is the story: I decided to buy a good and expensive controller for my PC for the first time, after 3 decades of using stock dualshocks and cheap knock-off brands. Googled “best controller for PC”, found a lot about elite series 2 controllers. Got excited about it (primarily the back-grip buttons and adjustable stick...
I’m sure it depends on the AI tools and features being used, but with all the “magic” obfuscation from companies surrounding them, it’s not exactly clear how much of the processing is happening locally over remotely....
I’m curious about rehabilitation. I believe crime comes from access to resources and/or from a lack of emotional education (such as empathy, patience, and sympathy)....
I got immich with SSO up and running. It runs like a dream compared to Photoprism and is simple enough for me, but also has necessary features like user accounts....
Had a free sub, running out though. On a tight budget currently so trying to find a way to play offline or any good sources for these types of stories?...
I have (had?) A win10 machine for gaming with a nvidia 1080 for the past ten years since gaming wasn’t performant enough for me on Linux. Nouveau wasn’t cutting it fps wise and the nvidia drivers were a nightmare if you dared to alt-tab or expected more than 20fps....
I find that most people in my life have at least one “thing” they are collecting. It is often an insight into their personality and it is fun to hear people talk about something they are passionate about.
I might be asking a rhetorical question here but I was curious as to the overall consensus on physical media. Do support it because, unlike streaming, media can’t take away what you’ve payed for? or are you against because it’s a waste of money when you can “acquire” it through “alternative means?” I’m also...
This shit ass site proposes a paying plan for downloading student notes and I’m so fucking tired at the idea that they basically got a monopoly on it. How can I download the docs?
[update, solved] It was apparmor, which was lying about being inactive. Ubuntu’s default profile denies bind write access to its config directory. Needed to add /etc/bind/dnskeys/** rw, reload apparmor, and it’s all good....
I’ve tried getting into peertube to have something to watch. I’m exploring copyleft music on open audio / funkwhale. I’m on here in lemmy as of this week. I’m playing with mastodon and the fediverse. I’ve tried studying psychology and psychology-adjacent territory like Deleuze and Guattari and Foucault and Derrida so I...
I’m planning to set up LUKS on an SSD. Many guides are suggesting using a simple key to set things up and then revoke it when everything is in place....
Ok i have a 5TB usb hard drive that is mostly used for weekly backups of my system. It is hooked to a raspberry pi and has an exfat file system and used as a samba share....
I know Jewish people are granted some special right to visit the state of Israel, and some companies organize free tours for Jewish born or living outside....
I have my own Lemmy instance (Lemmy.emphisia.nl) but I had to take it offline, after running a while it was using more than half of the system memory (16gb in total). Causing the computer to crash as there are a lot of other services also running on it. The problem appears to come from postgress. In btop I can see it spawning a...
Just bought a Pixel 7a (for Graphene OS), but looking for a good, solid phone case. What are some brands, that are worth buying from that are not cheap knock offs? Appreciate any tips
I’m getting an android tablet soon (will be a present and a little birdie told it to me). Nothing fancy, just some mid-range 10 inch one with basic features. I’m planning to mainly use it for comic books, but while I’m at it might as well watch movies on it....
