I'm an engineer with history in reverse-engineering, logic-level troubleshooting and design, software, and whatever else.

I think of myself of more as an agroecologist/farmer type guy though no matter what the paychecks say on them

  • This is good news. I have complete faith that tech companies will find a way to make a shitshow out of this but I hope that this is just the first of many steps like this.

  • I get to be that guy! I'm so excited!

    In power strips, the lights are (in the overwhelming majority of cases) actually a neon bulb! They're cheaper for that specific purpose because they can be powered directly off of the mains power with a single resistor.

    Your point is entirely valid and I bear the same cross, this is just a fun fact you can use to impress colleagues, strangers, and potential lovers, dazzling them with your deep esoteric knowledge of and passion for illuminators in power strips.

  • If what you need to accomplish can be achieved via shell commands, it would be hard to beat OliveTin for this use case.

  • Kavita reader or Calibre-web?

    Jump

  • I solved that for myself by making genre folders and just tossing books in them haphazardly as I download them.

  • Kavita reader or Calibre-web?

    Jump

  • I gave Calibre a brief shot and was immediately put off by how big and clunky it was. I'm sure it would have been perfect if I gave it more of a shot and spent time tweaking.

    Kavita has been my solution for the last probably 7 months and I'm loving it. I don't need anything outside of "put book in place" and then "Open Kavita, see book" and it has been perfect for that. It's essentially plex but with books in terms of how using and maintaining it has been.

  • Re: Defederation - Does Lemmy need a charter?

    Jump

  • I'm going to be honest, that sounds like we'd just be inventing something for people to get mad about. The entire ethos of decentralization is for that sort of arrangement to not be a thing. Either the charter would have nobody to enforce it OR you'd have to centralize authority.

    What you're describing works for various instances to form a sort of collective with shared ideals but projecting that onto the entire network is antithetical to the entire idea here.

    Also, and this is nitpicky, I admit-- You're not in the Lemmyverse. You're in the Fediverse, a space in which lemmy is a very new and small part.

  • Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?

    Jump

  • Haven't even opened reddit from google results since the protest started. I've also been removing subreddits from my RSS reader

  • Would a "New Communities" page of some sort be helpful
