What's the most notable skill a GF or BF taught you?
I'm sorry I tried....
I’m disabled and no way to get anything from what I have now, which is a omen laptop from 2016 and no matter what ditro, and whatever fixes I try, I can’t get Linux to work with my games through steam without a lot of problems....
Looking for emotional support: I lost all my WhatsApp chats
I was so confident that WhatsApp was backing itself up to Google ever since I got my new pixel but I just wasn’t. Then yesterday I factory reset my phone to fix something else and I lost it all. Years worth of chats from so many times in my past just aren’t there, all my texts with my mom and my family, group chats with old...

What's in your cup this week?
I’m doing a blend of Kona from a local store and whole food Kenya. It’s a 70/30 of Kenya to Kona and taste great. The Kona alone I got taste and looks like really dark soil after a brew, so I picked a lite roast to see how it would go and I’m happy....
Syncthing saved my ass
Note for Americans: here WhatsApp is the de facto communication standard. Literally nobody uses SMS/iMessage/Facebook messenger/signal. And carriers still charge 2 euro for a MMS which completely kills iMessage/RCS (if accidentally send MMS, it’s expensive)...
[Jellyfin] PCIe x4 graphic card for transcoding
I have only a PCIe 2.0 x4 and a PCIe 3.0 x16 free and I need to install a 10Gbps SFP+ card and a graphic card for transcoding with Jellyfin (the CPU is an old E5-2620 v2). Since I can’t find any SFP+ card that is x4, do you know a graphic card with decent transcoding capabilities (I’d day 2 4K simultaneously) that is only...
(Newbie question) Did i handle my system crashing correctly?
Ive just installed Linux (Fedora 40 KDE) on my main PC over the weekend, so im a complete newbie and i apologize if some of my questions are nonsensical 😅. Yesterday evening the system seemed to completely lock up at a certain point while playing Red Dead Redemption 2 for the first time (installed & run via steam using proton...
Linux on Microsoft Copilot+ PCs?
Do you think it will be possible to run GNU/Linux operating systems on Microsoft’s brand new “Copilot+ PCs”? The latter ones were unveiled just yesterday, and honestly, the sales pitch is quite impressive! A Verge article on them: Link

I have 2 dozen eggs to use up
The best by date is in 2 days. I know about the water test for egg freshness so I’m not super concerned, but please give me ideas for using them up within a week or so 🥺 I’ve boiled a few and am planning to make some cookie dough, but that only counts for half a dozen.
Shadowrun mixes fantasy and scifi, so someone out there has definitely made a Comm-Ent phreaker/hacker character by now.
Comm-Ents running aerials in their uppermost branches of their head but nobody can tell ‘cause they’ve made’em blend in. Paranoia’s even harder to pin down when the “trees” can literally be listenin’.
TIL that credit card numbers are validated using Luhn's algorithm. If it doesn't work with Luhn's algorithm, it's not a valid card number.

Whatever happened to lemmy.film?
It had a few niche communities I would occasionally post to after the Reddit exodus but a couple months later I would post there and get no responses or votes. Going to lemmy.film now gives me an error message. Did they decide to shut it down or combine with another instance similar to FMHY? I am curious if they gave some kind...

I’ve been using i3 for a while now, but the xfce power manager doesn’t work outside the desktop environment, is there any alternative you can recommend? It doesn’t matter if it is a terminal based or graphical interface program, I just need something that can suspend the computer after a certain time or lock it when the...
