  • Linux Distros Designed for Former Windows Users Are Picking Up Steam | Linux Journal

    Jump

  • Mainly just the satisfaction of supporting a project we like. IIRC, my Mom's PC is on the version they're sunsetting too. Pretty sure we're gonna need to update it anyway.

  • My mom loves Zorin OS! We're strongly considering the pro version now.

  • Rust is repairable unless the frame's structural integrity has been compromised. That much rust is an oddity, even in the rust belt. Many owners undercoat their vehicles which significantly prolongs the life of the vehicle.

    If you're really against purchasing a modern car, as I am, you still have plenty of options.

    A new car is going to cost you thousands anyway. Why not just invest that money in a car you already like?

  • There's plenty of older cars sitting in used lots. You can avoid newer cars if you buy one of those or simply keep up with the maintenance on your vehicle. Even if the engine dies, its replaceable.

  • I wish Youtube operated like a PiHole where you could upload a list of channels and block them all in one fell swoop.

  • I think these images of Jodie Foster are from Contact.

    If you haven't see that movie yet, check it out!

  • In 2000, 2 years after creating Google, Stanford scientist Larry Page predicted the company's #1 priority a quarter century later.

  • Its just failing on the giving you the right thing part.

  • It's really not that hard!

  • Maaaaaybe when Windows wasn't actually disrespectful to its user base but now that they've gone full "we know what's best for you" and are actively ruining their OS and fucking with their users to push garbage tier AI shit no one wants... Yeah, miss me with this shit man.

    Linux respects the autonomy of its users and for that reason alone it has gained me as a user.

  • Anna’s Archive - Backing up Spotify

    Jump

  • I'd wager 70% of what's on Spotify is not worth preserving since its AI slop.

  • Is laying on your stomach every once in a while good for you?

    Jump

  • I've always wanted a massage table so I could lay flat on my stomach with my head in a neutral position and read by looking through the hole.

  • Books can definitely be expensive but they're one item on an ever shortening list of things that corpos can't claw back from you after purchase. For that reason, they're money well spent if you ask me!

  • Yup. Limitation just 'cause. Capitalism at work.

  • That's fair. I know nothing of gesture typing tbh. All I care about is that my apps aren't spying on me.

  • Pro tip for drummers: buy this instead of moon gels, cut them to whatever size you need for the dampening you want.

    The palm makes for good batter head dampening, the fingers are great for resonant heads.

    They work great and they're dirt cheap!

  • Why does it feel like there is currently less new games, songs, YouTube videos, valuable articles and creations in general?

    Jump

  • All I can give you is an anecdote about my own experience. In said experience I've not had any non-starter issues with those two tools. They work for me until Youtube changes its algorithm.

    This is why I mentioned the NFL channel as an example. It's my canary in the coalmine of Youtube. When the NFL channel (among other sports related channels) pops back up on my feed, I know that YouTube has changed something in the algorithm.

    I just click Not Interested and Don't Recommend Channel and away it goes for another year or so until they make another change. Simple as.

    I've curated a recommendation feed that is highly specific to my interests as a result. Not sure why that method wouldn't work for you.

  • They definitely do because my recommendations are squeaky clean 98% of the time and those buttons, along with not clicking on shit that I think will poison my feed are the main tools I use to keep things clean.

    One thing to keep in mind is that YT makes changes to their algorithm every once in a while. For me, that typically manifests as sports channels, especially the NFL, or political stuff making their way into my feed. A few clicks of those buttons and I'm back to normal.
