Obviously people are being price gouged, but just saying “record profits” without really being able to explain it feels like I’m just repeating what I’ve heard people say and not speaking on an informed level. What does it actually mean? Like before or after production and transportation costs? Before or after taxes? Raw...
My instance has downvoting enabled, but I’ve learned that some other instances do not. Do the vote totals look different to users on different instances? It seems like some users on instances that don’t allow downvoting are unaware that it’s not the same lemmy-wide. It would be pretty confusing for them to see their vote...
Why YSK: Service Dog etiquette is to leave them alone as to not distract the dog’s focus. If they’re approaching you, they could be using a last ditch effort to save their owner. They will usually follow you, whine, bark, or otherwise try to grab your attention if this is the case.
Alot of my friends use Snapchat for messaging but it’s really annoying needing to laggily enable the camera every time the app opens. Anyone know a way to make it think it has the camera on but not actually or something? (if you just revoke the camera permission it stops you from using the app entirely)
Why YSK: Some banks have no minimum age for authorized users, and report credit usage for them. If you have a credit card you don’t use much, you can add your kids as authorized users, set up a reoccurring payment from the card and an automatic payment to the card, and then forget about it. Your kid could become an adult with...
My 2.5 year old loves watching classic Pokemon. I’ll be honest, so do I. But have you tried doing that? It’s fucking insane....
Why YSK: Since May 2018, all newly-built cars sold in the United States are required to have a backup camera and video display for the camera. Many car dealers, both used and new, will advertise the backup camera as some kind of added luxury or special option and try to charge you more for it. Don’t bite the bait and...

Hello Lemmings (I have no idea what Lemmy users are called) I’m a reddit migrator. I’m still a little confused, but I’d like to learn. How do I find communities? If I want to discuss Warhammer or Steam games, or something like that, what’s the best way to find that content? If it matters I am on the phone app.
I’m annoyed by Play Protect and finally want to turn it off. Comes every time with absurd, complicated to circumvent warnings about privacy-friendly services like Exodus, F-Droid, etc. from which no threats emanate, but on the contrary protect against threats that Google delivers....

What have you been playing this week? Do you think others might like it?
I don’t really have a question but I want to talk about noodles, please. Is a tamale a noodle or a sandwich?
Does anybody knows how long it takes to sign up for the Lemmy.ml instance with an account? It would give me the green wheel and I don’t know if I have to wait “x” amount of time or it’s just not possible at this time.
For years I’ve been using HowLongToBeat which has good tools for tracking playtime, collections, backlog et.c.. However the site is pretty laggy on my phone, so I’m exploring other options. What is you guys’ approach?

I’m quite a newbie to the self-hosted world, and I was wondering if a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 could be enough to start something and have “reasonable” performance....
It’s Sunday! I’m up early as our bedroom is currently five thousand degrees....

Like why have the toggle in the first place if apps can detect it? Doesn’t letting apps know about it defeat the whole purpose?
I watched a review of the TNG episode “Thine Own Self” a while ago where it was mentioned that Picard doesn’t appear until the very end after Data gets back to the Enterprise, after all the scenes of Crusher having the bridge and Riker observing Troi taking the test to becoming a commander. They suggested that Patrick...
I am thinking of setting up my own Pixelfed instance, maybe on Digital Ocean or similar. Can anybody advise the sort of CPU requirements I would need for a single user instance to run efficiently? 2gb CPU sufficient?
Lots of awesome links in the megathread, but I have yet to find a good source for content in languages other than English. Specifically movies/series in German, either as the original VO, or dubbed. Are there any torrent or DDL sites where it is easy to find German stuff?
