Well one runs like a top. The other I need to replace the suspension on but the engine is sound.

I own two cars. The newest is a 2013 because it’s before touchscreens became standard equipment. I’m gonna limp those bitches along until either I die or that trend reverses.

Look into OpenSCAD. It’s a declarative language you can use to do 3d modeling. I suck with graphical programs like Fusion and Blender but I’m a programmer, and OpenSCAD has made my life a lot easier.

Yeah the setup is pretty trivial and it works great.

Owning your own domain is great that way. Even makes the little bit I pay to ProtonMail well worth it. There are a few addresses I have dedicated, like my aws@example.com, me@, and my-name@, but the rest just go to a catch all. It’s fantastic.

So I took your advice though I ended up settling on the Kobo Libra 2 and I absolutely love this thing. It has a couple hardware buttons, too. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just tell them to install 7zip. I’m not working around your inadequacy.

If anyone knows of a good ebook reader that’s as easy on the eyes as a Kindle I’d love to know it. Everything I look at looks like a low spec tablet instead of a proper eink display.

Edit: thanks to a few comments in this thread I went with the Kobo Libra 2. I love this little device. Plenty of storage, a great display that’s really easy on the eyes even with the backlight (which is fully dimmable and has color temperature adjustment). Thanks for everyone for the recommendations!

Well then, anyone have this code archived? Time to make sure it makes it to torrent networks. The only way we render the DMCA irrelevant is to make it useless.

Make sure to keep the checksums in place.

I even upgraded my pipe to fiber so I can share Plex with my friends and family. Built a machine with 16TBx6 RAID. Cost me a shit ton more than a year of all the streaming services but fuck them.

Privacy. Easy choice for me.

You’re talking about market economics on a site full of tankies.

Those taxi unions had a monopoly in the areas they served (which was far smaller than Uber and Lyft’s service area) and their prices reflected that.

If Uber and Lyft leave there’s one thing sure to happen: a lot more people dying from being hit by drunk drivers.

This isn’t a good thing any way you cut it.

This is really, really stupid.

I’m not a trademark lawyer but I’m not sure parody would fly there.

It’s not quiet so cut and dry. The law is written to cover 90% but this isn’t a criminal matter, it’s a civil one, and civil suits are always decided in courtrooms. If I created a weed dispensary and called it Instant Pot and stylized my logo like that of a popular countertop pressure cooker they’d be well within their rights to sue despite being wildly different industries.

I think that was Parler for the whole 3 mooches it was a thing.

As one of the “small government” crowd I’m not trusting that douchebag with my information.

Keep doing our jobs. We get paid well enough to afford the price increase in shipping things via UPS.

Maybe. I know shipping things via UPS is about to get a lot more expensive, and maybe it should be.

As one of the tech workers: fuck yeah, good for them for negotiating well, and getting what they’re owed.

Like 90% of the internet is running on Linux. If being anywhere in the tech world is something you’re interested in then it would behoove you to learn it. But if all you’re interested in is the gaming then by all means rub the Cheeto dust on your shirt and yell for your mom upstairs to get you another bag.

It’s not exploitation if people want to do it

They’re striking. Collective bargaining negotiations broke down with the studios ostensibly negotiating in bad faith. It started with the Writer’s Guild, and then SAG jumped in after the studios basically told the WGA to go piss up a rope.

Guessing they hit the post button a bunch of times because some of the UI controls really aren’t visually responsive on many of the Lemmy instances.

Excuse me what? How do I do this? Are the just using the built in browser?
