I need to upgrade my laptop and one of the things I’m looking for is repairability/upgradability. I’ve been told thinkpads are good in this respect, how true is that? In terms of replacing batteries and memory, at least. I’m also looking at the frameworks, but those black friday deals are looking alright at lenovo....

Hello fellow pirates!...

This drives me nuts when I see it done wrong, but it’s actually kind of complicated because English is orthographically deranged....

Title. Just curious, before I buy a book, as certain books available only internationally on Amazon are apparently purchasable without needing to change location, so curious if I can DeDRM later.

What movie do you want made? If you got a pitch meeting with a producer and a guaranteed green light, what would you say?

[SOLVED] 12 TB disk finally arrived, I used clonezilla. Using advanced settings and -k1 (everything else left as default) made exact disk with more storage. I just replaced disks, powered on and everything is up and running! Ty all ❤️...

I have a Lenovo Tab P12 Pro with active pen and I’m looking for an handwritten note taking app with palm rejection, any suggestion?

Much easier to reject bad CVs. On the other hand every job post is the same and you have to check Glassdoor and Crunchbase before applying to a potential bad company

prefer KDE. Currently testing Nitrux. Any other options

I have a theory that it should have a very different “personality” (probably more like writing style) depending on language because it’s an entirely different set of training data...

My brand new iPhone 15 appears to have a burn in issue with the status bar where it leaves behind a dark faded version of the icons there. (I just updated from IOS 17.0.2) is this normal?

I installed endeavourOS 2 days ago and then, the next day, there was a newnrelease of endeavourOS. It’s supposed to have better encryption. Is it possible to upgrade encryption on Linux? An unrelated question: is it possible to change the password of an encrypted partition? I’m a beginner, so please explain your magical...

Not a remake or remaster or rerelease of something old, but something inspired or influenced by something either popular or a cult classic. Also this could extend to hardware/tech too, not only media.

Anyone know a good place to find them? :)

Supporting small creators that contribute to the creative commons, or free software developers using the money saved! This is like, protesting proprietary stuff, while using the saved resources to support creators that respect our right to reuse/remix instead. I hope that makes sense lol

Weekly thread to discuss whatever you’re working on, big or small, at work or in your free time.

I am trying to encrypt a sensitive file and AGE won’t cut it.

I’m learning web development. I’m on databases at the moment, postgresql in particular. I thought it might be fun to try to help with a fediverse project or two, but I’m only knowledgeable about node.js, and npm, do any fediverse projects use that? I also may be diving too deep too early with this. Appreciate any feedback...

My wife and I rarely cook turkey for Thanksgiving. This year we’re coming Cornish hens. In previous years we’ve cooked duck, leg of lamb, and rib roast. It’s not that we don’t like turkey, but there are lots of other things that I think I’d prefer eating....

What are you non-obvious, maybe strange usecases of Syncthing?...

In North America, using Xfinity for reference. I want to create both a home NAS and offline Wiki/media backup. Problem is to get the amount of data I need would blow through my plan and throttle my speed. I guess I could try and do it over a longer period or download just before the billing cycle renews so even if I go over it...

Looking for a very specific genre of music and I am unsure of where to ask for suggestions.
