When do I actually need a firewall?
I’ve spent some time searching this question, but I have yet to find a satisfying answer. The majority of answers that I have seen state something along the lines of the following:...
Why does everyone hate Cloudflare?
They get shit on a lot here. Why? What do they do and how is that different from other companies that offer similar services?...
Why has the world gone to shit?
In the last 5 to 10 years everything seems to suck: product’s and services quality plummeted, everything from homes to cars to food became really expensive, technology stopped to help us to be something designed to f@ck with us and our money, nobody seems to be able to hold a job anymore, everyone is broke. Life seems worse in...
How to fool a laptop into thinking a monitor is connected?
Hello! I converted an old laptop with a broken screen into a home server, and it all works well except for one thing: when I reboot it (via ssh), if no screen is connected, it will get stuck and refuse to boot. as soon as I connect an HDMI monitor, the fans will start spinning and it will start booting as usual. Then I can...
Do multivitamins actually expire?
Yes they have an expiration date, but do they actually go bad?
Do EV's actually do anything beneficial for the planet?
I’ve seen a lot of posts here on Lemmy, specifically in the “fuck cars” communities as to how Electric Vehicles do pretty much nothing for the Climate, but I continue to see Climate activists everywhere try pushing so, so hard for Electric Vehicles....

What are the highest quality search engines?
It is becoming near impossible to find relevant information from search engines. Duckduckgo, SearXNG, Bing, Google, and so many more mainstream engines have a significantly high noise to signal ratio, and it is getting worse....
Would the sound of the headphones be better if I put an additional speaker in each cup? (i.imgflip.com)
I have some closed-back headphones that have poor sound. Is it possible to improve the sound of the headphones by installing additional speakers?...
VPN connection keeps dropping out all the time (lemmy.world)
I use Tailscale as my VPN, and it’s always just worked for me. But lately, it keeps hopping out. This is only an issue on my Android phone too. I have set Tailscale to be the ‘always-on-vpn’ in settings, but that doesn’t change anything for me....
I'm an idiot (arm)
EDIT: Putting this at the top because not everyone is seeing what I actually need. I can unpack the rar archive just fine. What I can’t do (on arm) is add to/update the files in the rar archive. I have unrar already installed. What I can’t install is the rar package to create/update rar archives....
What has been your best financial move in life?
NixOS is better because...
I’ve been curious about NixOS for quite some time. Reading about it I couldn’t see how the config sharing capabilities, setup, or rollabck would be better than Arch and sharing the list of installed packages, using downgrade or chroot....

Does Android benefit from a clean install?
Greeting all, I’ve only ever been an android user, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone talk about this. My Galaxy S21 is starting to have performance issues and I’m curious if a clean install would breath new life into it?...

I'm so frustrated rn.
I have been distro hopping for about 2 weeks now, there’s always something that doesn’t work. I thought I would stick with Debian and now I haven’t been able to make my printer work in it, I think I tried in another distro and it just worked out of the box, but there’s always something that’s broken in every distro....
What's wrong with using cloudflared?
I read a comment on here some time ago where the person said they were using cloudflared to expose some of their self-hosted stuff to the Internet so they can access it remotely....
