The only Linux questions community I found appears to be locked, so I hope it’s ok to ask here…...

I saw a lot of chatter in a mental health thread about wanting an area for men’s mental health. Having had my own issues I thought I’d create a space and hope for the best on its growth. I’m not much for words so here it is...

I’m working on setting up my first homelab. I have an older dell optiplex with a duel PCIe NIC in it. I was wondering if I could setup OPNsense as a docker container or virtual machine so that I could also use the extra resources of the box for other things besides just being a router. Is this a good idea?

For instance I know i can navigate to lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] to see the “daystrominstitute” community at startrek.website, but is there a way where I can see all (or even just the most popular) communites at startrek.website, while still logged into my lemmy.ml instance (so i can just hit the subscribe...

Both my kids are sick. Both have colds. My eldest has a recurrence of pinworm that didn’t show it’s head until 11pm last night and ultimately resulted in me sleeping (badly) on her floor. Then, as we finally pull away from the hovel of disease that is our house, my drivers side front coil spring snaps and hey presto, we no...

I just got my package of new earphones from Best Buy, and the box was fucking empty. I mean there is the box and instruction manuals and charging cable, but the actual earphones aren’t there. They’ve used Shipt (which is like a doordash but for packages) but the box was inside another layer of packaging which was supposedly...

Maybe I never paid attention or maybe it’s the first time we’ve had wildfire smoke in my city recently, but I had been so confused at the “fog” and “clouds” despite it not being fog or clouds but Haze.

There are moments when I do not wish to continue playing a game but still wish to learn about the game and the things that happened in it so far. Sometimes the story becomes too confusing or I forget that one in-game tip that is needed to beat the game, which is when I am forced to research on that topic else the rest of my...

Hello!...

Let me preface this with this was a dormant account with no instances set up, and I put it into place maybe 4 or 5 years ago while getting into the Self Hosted space. I don’t recall if I had MFA setup, but don’t think I did as it was a test space. In fact, I forgot I even had it up until now....

If you’re using the laptop as intended (i.e., on your lap), wouldn’t those be almost entirely blocked?

I’m starting to get more and more HDR content, and I’m noticing an issue with my Jellyfin server. In nearly all cases, it’s required to transcode and tone map the HDR content. All of it is in 4k....

hello! is there a fedi instance (i dont really care about the software) for mentally ill people? i only found disabled.social so far but they have way too large blocklist and i dont want a server that blocks so many decent instances...

I got my car (2020 Ford Fusion Hybrid SE) new 3 years ago at $25k for a 6 year loan @ 0% interest for entirety of loan, $350 a month payment. I’m about halfway paid off and have about $12.5k left on it. What should I do? I just get sick of paying $350 a month.

The 2 frontends are...

I know that Nord, Catppuccin and Dracula support a range of apps. There is also Solarized and Gruvbox which have been ported by the community to many other apps....

A few months ago I got into an argument on TikTok about this. Some guy posted a video where he pretended to shine a laser pointer at a plane during the day, along with his mugshot and a news story about getting arrested for it. It was clearly a joke/photoshopped because the news story said it happened at midnight....

I was considering deleting my account and just wanted to take stock of my post history and pm history....

Hi, I’m relatively new here. Like probably a lot of people, I appended the word “reddit” to most of my searches to get discussions around my interests/news or to find “curated” things. I noticed that it does not work as great with “Lemmy” for example, as the user base is more spread out and smaller in general....

Hey guys,...
