  • What is the best mailbox overall?

    Jump

  • I doubt that what OP was talking about.

  • What is the best mailbox overall?

    Jump

  • It's so weird how any time someone mentions Signal, Proton, or other convenient privacy-focused alternatives to big tech someone on Lemmy will magically appear to say "No, don't!"

  • What is the best mailbox overall?

    Jump

  • No need to apologize! Of course I will believe you, an anonymous internet account discouraging use of a well-audited privacy service.

  • What is the best mailbox overall?

    Jump

  • What is the complaint about Proton? I feel like they went out of their way to make the transition from Google as seamless as possible.

  • Can i request something of people who still uses reddit

    Jump

  • I thought Redlib no longer worked with the API changes? How are you using it?

  • Pine64 has started shipping their smart speaker!

    Jump

  • Is this voice assistant something I can install on Android? I didn't realize there was any alternative to Google or Siri (or Bixby).

  • Patrick Stewart Reflects on 'Star Trek' at 60: Why He Wants More Spinoffs

    Jump

  • I say fuck it let's give him another 10 spinoffs we have nothing to lose anymore

  • Then they share their lifestyle on tiktok for likes

    Jump

  • Well except they're not asking poor people are they? They're asking everybody. And it's just an ask. If you don't want to accommodate the request then you don't have to, but going on the internet and publicly discouraging people from advocating for the needy just because they're wealthy is not helping anyone, especially the needy.

    Jump

  • Yes exactly it's about their power to influence

  • Underwater images reveal 1st look at Quest, the final ship of Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton

    "I spoke to my old friend Keevan this morning..."

  • Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?

    Jump

  • I have been extremely disappointed with the broader Linux ""community"" at times, but never Linux.

  • Removed Locked

    Most slopcode projects are abandoned and deleted within months of release

    Jump

  • There was a Ted Talk a while back (I can't remember who) where they said "I have always wanted to give a Ted Talk... but when I got selected to do this I realized that what I really wanted was to say I had given a Ted Talk". Meaning they want to be known as someone who had given a Ted Talk, not actually go through the process of writing and delivering the Talk.

    People who write open source code do it because they like the process of writing, just like an author enjoys writing books. LLMs are for people who just want to be able to say they have written a book. People who slop-code aren't actually interested in learning how to code. Which is a fine toy for them to play with, but not sustainable (or reliable for others to use).

  • When did we reach a point piracy has better service than paying?

    Jump

  • Yes exactly and I always consider Steam (and to a lesser degree the Kindle ecosystem), which make it obvious to me that interoperability and convenience are something consumers are willing to pay for.

  • It's probably a very good feeling. I mean, just look how happy Odo looks.

    Jump

  • Why doesn't Odo just put up a sign that says "nobody I don't like allowed"

  • Risa Board of Tourism

    Jump

  • Plot twist: I will use the holodeck to simulate being a starfleet captain

  • sci-fi series recommendation

    Jump

  • "Space vampires" is such a turn-off of an idea for me that I'm glad I didn't know about it going in but WOW was it a great concept!

  • sci-fi series recommendation

    Jump

  • My secret shame is that I lowkey love the Rama sequels, though I fully acknowledge that they are political soap operas in space and tonally absolutely nothing like the original.

  • Convinced my partner to install Linux on her laptop. Going with Zorin OS. Thoughts?

    Jump

  • This was my exact journey, though I eventually landed on immutable Fedora with KDE. Zorin is a great OS but it's in a weird space because it's probably already too simple for anyone who knows what Linux is.

    Democrats campaigning on "affordability" are cutting back on their anti-oil rhetoric but they should be focusing on removing the red tape surrounding solar, which could be much cheaper!
