  • Genes be crazy

    Jump

  • I used to eat them as a kid to freak out my friends. I don't remember them tasting like much of anything. Maybe a bit like dirt or something.

  • Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?

    Jump

  • I spent most of last year running LMDE6 and while it started off good, things just got more frustrating to troubleshoot and the system felt buggier over time. (Which I know is not how things are supposed to be for "stable" Debian.) Switched to CachyOS a couple months ago and things work so much smoother.

  • Protestation

    Jump

  • Its kinda funny that Melania is in that photo of past presidents and first ladies but not Donald.

  • AMD say the Steam Machine is "on track" for an early 2026 release

    Jump

  • They explicitly said it has user upgradeable ram. The graphics card is soldered on though. Its basically gaming laptop hardware.

    Brown Rice. CachyOS and KDE

  • Do you have any ideas on how to attract people from centralized platforms to such as lemmy?

    Jump

  • Most of my IRL friends who still use reddit claim its mostly for porn. Which blows my mind as I never used it for that. They dont like the idea that most of the porn content on Lemmy is siloed away into defederated instances, and that they would need multiple accounts.

  • Haha that's really cool, funny number man

    Jump

  • I appreciate moves and TV without wanting to be an actor.

    I appreciate science and what it does without wanting to be a scientist.

  • hp hate

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure its just a specific HP model. You sign up for the subscription, and they send you the printer and ink as needed.

    I think they still have normal printers too.

  • Then & Now

    Jump

  • Carry around your birth certificate, SS card, Passport, Drivers license. But you happen to be of a dark complexion, and they gotta meet quota, so all that paperwork gets mysteriously misplaced.

  • Where is Linux not working well in your daily usage? Share your pain points as of 2026, so we can respectfully discuss

    Jump

  • Yeah I only have that quest 2 because it was free. I would like to only stream PCVR titles to it to minimize meta usage. At least until the steam frame comes out.

    Jump

  • VR. Using CachyOS, a new 9060xt 16gb, and a Quest2. When I can get steam VR to launch and connect at all its extremely choppy and stuttery to the point its unusable. Worked fine on the same hardware and network before switching from windows.

  • The Windows Interface You Didn’t Like, For Linux

    Jump

  • I actually loved this interface on my surface pro 2, especially when windows 10 came out and it would auto switch between this in tablet mode and a normal desktop when the keyboard was attached. I grew to like the same design language in the desktop start menu as well. Windows 11 was such a downgrade in UI.

    That said, I will take the freedom of linux and customization options of KDE plasma any day.

  • Some of the first women inducted into the US Marine Corps, WW1, 1918

    Jump

  • Is it just me, or the longer you look at this image the more all the women's faces start too look like they are the same person?

  • Consequences meeting face.

    Jump

  • I will agree with her that SHE shouldn't be teaching sex ed.

  • Ah, that lovely subsistence farming diet!

    Jump

  • My favorite part of going to Medivel Times is eating their authentic medieval European food like tomato soup, baked potato, and corn on the Cobb.

  • [@alexkrokus] Elders

    Jump

  • They only freeze the surface if you hold the can upside down or sideways though. If you hold it upright it just sprays close to room temp CO2 as it is suppose to.

  • Have there been shipwrecks that have been damaged by undersea communication cables (or even discovered because cables were being laid)?

    Jump

  • The ocean is massive. Seems like very low odds that a cable would hit one.

  • I dumped Windows 11 for Linux, and you should too

    Jump

  • Yeah getting VR working had been the only hangup for me so far. Also wireless. It will connect but its insanely laggy and compression artifacty. Worked fine on the same hardware and network with windows.

    At this point I'm hoping the release of the steam frame comes with a ton of fixes for vr on Linux.

    Jump

  • Have you tried the web based photopea? Its a pretty close replica of Photoshop. Does most of what it can do. Only thing I still need Photoshop for is my photo printing workflow. Still trying to figure out how to do it and match the same quality with GIMP or dark table and cups.

  • What to Do if ICE Invades Your Neighborhood

  • Eggs? In this economy?

  • What to Do if ICE Invades Your Neighborhood

    Jump

  • People shooting at, or killing ICE officers is exactly what the regime wants so they can declare martial law.
