I’ve not seen a stadium with this much parking in Europe. I almost always see people just taking the train/bus.

I remember seeing an article a little while back about this guy who had a similar issue. He ended up using a Raspberry Pi to avoid the ads.

Imperfect Linux-powered DIY smart TV is the embodiment of ad fatigue

A combination of Zen-browser, Firefox and Librewolf.

Curiosity got the better of me a while back. It’s horrifying and incredibly interesting at the same time.

Thank you for the very detailed response! I’ll give that book a read, it sounds interesting.

 

More specifically, if I was to attach my public key to every email — even when the recipient doesn’t use PGP.

My assumption is that “life would carry on” and there would be basically no difference but I’m not entirely sure.

the process of using PGP for encrypting content (text messages for example) is something I’m only just started understanding after some reading and practicing

EDIT

Since a couple of people have mentioned it, my email provider provides E2EE between users but it I want to have E2EE with non-users and via my aliases (SimpleLogin) with custom domains I’ll need PGP

It’s been a few years since I last shaved my beard. If I don’t get irritated skin after shaving should I still use an aftershave? If so, what do you recommend?

EndeavourOS É A MAIOR DE TODOS.

Not sure why everything was capitalised and in Portuguese when I’m using English at the moment.

Torrenting through Tor sounds like a recipe for disaster.

[–] governorkeagan@lemdro.id 1 points 2 weeks ago

This is what I wars thinking of, thank you!

[–] governorkeagan@lemdro.id 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I think the other aspect is that you could be adding more things to make you stand out amongst other tor users.

there’s a more technical term for all this but I can’t recall what it is

[–] governorkeagan@lemdro.id 8 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

I’ve been looking into this myself recently and it’s definitely an interesting conversation.

He most likely had bad OPSEC.

Secondly, he took this imagery he had created and then "turned to AI chatbots to ensure these minor victims would be depicted as if they had engaged in the type of sexual contact he wanted to see." In other words, he created fake AI CSAM—but using imagery of real kids.

This probably didn’t help much either.

 

Assuming I’ve got a website hosted on GitHub via Cloudflare with a custom domain. How different would it be to host the same site with a .onion address?

EDIT: I’ve had a few drinks so hopefully this isn’t too bad or at least makes sense.

 

I just got access to Proton Wallet earlier today. Is there anything you’d like to know?

Q&A

  • I’m on a family plan and have been a paying customer for about 2/3 years.
  • I haven’t bought any Bitcoin yet but will report back on that once I have.
 

How would a company decide that something should be “legitimate interest” vs “consent”?

EDIT: Definition of "Legitimate Interest", when hovering over the question mark.

How does legitimate interest work?

Some vendors are not asking for your consent, but are using your personal data on the basis of their legitimate interest.

I’m using EndeavourOS with KDE.

The display is correctly oriented when logged in but it doesn’t rotate correctly when I’m logged out.

EDIT: corrected the post. This happens when logged out, locking the screen has it displayed correctly.

 

Do people still hand out physical business cards at events or is it all digital now?

i should have asked before ordering 50, lol

EDIT:

Thank you for all the replies, I’ve got the answer I need but I’ll add some more information just in case anyone wants to know.

  • I’m based in Europe and not Japan
  • I’m working as a videographer and trying to build a film company
  • I plan on doing more event coverage so I’ll bring them with to quickly hand out my contact details.
  • The card has the following: Busines name, my name, phone number, email, and website.
  • I had thought about adding my social media but couldn’t find a nice way to do it that matched the rest of the card.

EDIT 2: just now realised I didn’t complete the last sentence of the last bullet point

I know the title sounds a little strange but hear me out. The time tracking software I use for work doesn’t work on Wayland, unless I’m using Gnome as my DE. They have an extension that allows it to work in this case. Personally, I don’t enjoy Gnome on my desktop (I use it on my laptop). Is there a way for me to get the functionality that this extension provides on KDE so that I can use Wayland on my desktop as well?

Time tracking software:

EDIT: I have included more files in the codeberg repo. I hope this helps.

The title is a quote from Mastodon. I’ve always seen dislike towards snap so I was taken back when I saw this stance. The person who wrote this was referring to Tuxedo Laptops.

What are your thoughts on this?

EDIT 2:

Some clarification for those accusing me of not following the thread or being disingenuous.

Didn't bother to follow the thread?

https://mastodon.social/@popey/112593520847827981

I posted my question here before this particular response from the OP. I asked the question on Lemmy out of interest and wanting to get a wider perspective. I also engaged with the OP on the thread so that I can get their perspective on their stance.

TL;DR: Is there really a performance benefit to a gaming distro over a regular distro? Or is it more of a “this is the least work” to get setup?

——

I run EndeavourOS on my desktop and haven’t had any issues with performance. I just like playing with new things and learning from the experience.

I’ve seen loads of people recommending Bazzite as a gaming distro for various reasons. It’s gotten to the point that I installed it on a second SSD to do my own testing but I’d still like to see others perspective.

From my research, there doesn’t seem to be that much performance to be gained (generally speaking). I’ll be testing this on my own hardware but is this generally true?

I think a big draw (especially for new users) would be that these distros would require very minimal work to get up and running into a game.

I think the TL;DR at the top best describes my question. I’ve just been thinking about this and haven’t been sure how to express it in a clear manner for others to understand. Also, this video got me thinking more.

EDIT:

Glad to see that I’m not alone in my thinking. Biggest benefit of a “gaming distro” is the convenience of having everything setup and there is no real performance difference.

 

Context, I’ve got some web dev experience but it’s all self taught from enjoying it as a hobby. Personally, the design aspect is probably worse for me.

I’ve been toying with the idea of trying to do something with the Lemmy API (even if it’s never shared publicly) but I’ve seen a handful of people complain about the API, is it really that bad?

I’d probably use React if I did do something.

EDIT: This is a prototype design I came up with, I'll play around with the API and see what I can do. I think that it could be a fun project, thanks for all the help!
