After the Red Hat mess I see many people saying IBM destroys everything they touch, but I can’t think of many examples of it. Can you tell me what else IBM has destroyed after acquiring it, or something good that they themselves developed and then ruined it with stupid corporate choices?

I ask inspired by experiences with Google. Google/YouTube, for as long as I can remember, always had a strange habit of assuming absolutely anyone even near to you is you. Back when I had my first YouTube account (which was also back when I was in a completely different part of the world), for the last few years of having it, it...

Basically title....

It is looking like eggs are about to go up again and I have a lot of freezer space. There are many ways to do this but I am looking for portion control and convivence for 1 person. Is it better to scramble them or try to freeze as is?

To start off: I was explaining to my friend that I don’t have a grounding point in my house (plumbing is PVC, outlets are gcfi protected only, not allowed to drive a grounding rod into the ground, etc…) and that I’ve just been handling sensitive electronics with just luck and preparation (humidity, moisturizer, no...

Do democracies sustain attacks from dictatorships because of this possible vulnerability ?

I’m not here to claim that Tiktok is completely harmless, or that it’s even a good site.

I’ve tried looking this up, but every time I do, I obviously am searching for the wrong thing because I have never found the info I’m looking for.

Posting this here because I’m unsure of where else to post something like this....

On a hot day and traveling in a car, which method of keeping the occupants comfortable with the A/C is more energy and fuel efficient?...

i realised that i too could benefit from a similar product.maybe some of yous are cooks. it might be that the profesional all surface cleaner is more metal oriented and as such not suitable for normal households, but still, i feel i have to ask :)

I can’t think of what fraud it prevents.

This is something that has been bothering me for a while as I’m diving through space articles, documentaries etc. All seem to take our observations for granted, which are based on the data of the entire observable universe (light, waves, radiation…) we receive at our, in comparison, tiny speck. How do we know we are...

I’ve actually got 2 questions, one about l.w and one about lemmy in general....

there are a lot of options for keeping people connected that dont require a phone like matrix, xmpp and a much bigger etc. so if someone wanted to ditch their phone and only use their linux laptop, would that be possible?? thank you!!

I don’t mean actively trying to commit suicide or being careless and stupid, you know, just feeling like if I woke up tomorrow and said to me, “Oh hey, like, you died last night” I wouldn’t care....
