Linux@lemmy.ml•Experienced Linux users, what are you using?English
2·20 days agoRHEL on servers, then either Debian LTS or Fedora on desktop. Been interested in Zorin OS but haven’t gotten around to trying it yet. Curious if their Windows application integration is as seamless as they claim.
Username checks out at least.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the deal with people liking old devices?English
10·25 days agoBy using an older piece of tech that does one thing, you make doing that thing an activity again. As in, it’s a conscious involvement to do that thing now, it’s not just an app or a side feature of some other device.
For instance, I got an iPod Nano a little while ago and just loaded it with the few hundred songs I care to listen to. I use a fraction of the space of the thing if I care to add more music, but now when I want to listen to music I have to use a specific device to do so. It makes it more of a conscious decision to listen to music and, to me, makes me enjoy it more.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Residents of #canada, would you be in favour of your province or territory abolishing annual clock changes and moving to a consistent, year round time?English
13·1 month agoSK doesn’t get many things right, but not observing DST is one of them.
Just do it. It’s a simple process and will only brick it if you’re an absolute moron.
Are you claiming to have created this meme yourself back in 2016 or earlier?

Autism@lemmy.world•What is your favorite kind of fidget toy/stim toy?English
3·1 month agoBuddy of mine has two 3D printed spiral cone type things that perfectly twist together into one whole cone. Been meaning to get him to get me one from wherever he got his made. That thing never leaves my hand if I pick it up at his place.

6·2 months agoWe did, and in a perfect world I’d love to vote NDP. Usually do when Trump Lite isn’t a possibility. But let’s be honest, Canada is a two party system. NDP haven’t had a snowball’s chance in hell since Layton. Bloc, Green, et al? Lol.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the best thing made from potatoes?English
27·2 months agoTwice-baked potatoes. Bake them, lay them on the side, slice the top off, scoop out the potato while leaving the skin intact like a little boat. Mash the spuds with butter, sour cream, seasoning salt, cheese, and bacon bits (scallions too if you like them - I don’t), scoop back into the potato, shred more cheese on top, bake until melted.
Perfection.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•I replaced the caps that were disintegrating from a month or so ago!English
7·2 months agoI’m not that person from before, but that is still pretty dirty. Those shoulder buttons are yellow, the grey plastic seems to be covered in a film of what I assume is oil from a person’s hands, and what are those brown things on the side? I assume clips for some kind of rear protection.
That said, no drift yet is astounding. Even the people I know who baby their electronics experienced drift eventually. When did you get this? Curious if it’s a newer model and they made some changes.

If LLMs weren’t so damn sycophantic, I think we’d have a lot fewer problems with them. If they could be like “this could be the right answer, but I wasn’t able to verify” and “no, I don’t think what you said is right, and here are reasons why”, people would cling to them less.

Podcasts@slrpnk.net•Where the F*** Are We? - 99% InvisibleEnglish
2·2 months agoAnd very informative. I haven’t heard many episodes but the one about White Castle was fascinating.
Not sure if they’re euro boxes, but I organized my collectors items in clear totes and those are stacked on my shelves. No labels needed - it’s obvious what’s inside. Just keep like with like and it’s all good.
