If you were to make a wireless shower head, would it have hydrogen molecules and suck in the oxygen from the air to create water? Would you have to recharge it with hydrogen?

Was rather shocked to find BT hubs don’t allow you to change DNS servers anymore and force you to use their own ones, so I can’t properly setup adguard....

I believe in an open internet, FOSS, privacy by default, etc. I migrated away from Google by self-hosting Nextcloud. I prefer messaging apps like Molly, SimpleX, Threema, Matrix, etc. over standard SMS. I love the Fediverse (Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.)....

I’ll start. I have to be careful drinking around other people, because I can get intensely motivational....

What’s the Best Non-Alcoholic Alternative to an Ice Cold Beer at the End of the Day?...

TL;DR - which privacy-focused search engine do people recommend, preferably one that can also easily be used as a default option in Safari?...

I’m really curious where else everyone here hangs out on the internet besides Lemmy....

Statistic on the news said that 50% of the population there are under 18…

Why is the recent news around the LK-99 room-temperature superconductor such a big deal? What material impact would those findings have on electronics and modern technology?

For example, if a lyric contains “that you”, it ends up like “thatchoo”.

The line where she sings “Karma’s a relaxing thought/Aren’t you envious that for you it’s not?” sounds...

What’s something you do that would make other people think WTF?

Some brand with the name being pronounced “eloh” “moo”. And it smells like ass, but for some reason it’s really popular....

Moving to Linux soon, and wondering how pirated games work with it. I know about proton with steam and lutris for most bought games, but how would I run pirated windows games over there?

I know of someone who says they listen to Joe Rogan podcasts (political I assume) but I don’t know what this means or what the connotations are. Both this person and I live in east asia.

Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I’d like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don’t want to explain.

I’m not a parent, but going by pop culture, it seems like literally every child has the same fears....

I know that most customizability features that were once exclusive to custom roms are available for use right out of the box these days....

Is it one that you just use and works just fine? Or one that has proven to be reliable and responsible if they do a mistake and only want to satisfy you as a customer?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

I have an old ThinkPad SL-400 with a Core 2 Duo processor and 4 gigabytes of RAM....
