  • How do you discover new music in 2025?

    Jump

  • It sounds basic, but I just keep an eye on new album reviews and give things a quick listen (on Spotify usually) if they have some good reviews.

    For things I like I try to buy it on bandcamp so I can put it on my jellyfin server. If it's hard to find DRM free I 🏴‍☠️.

    Downside is I miss out on non-album releases.

  • What's the largest object one can buy for the least amount of money?

    Jump

  • I'm sure there's cheap land for sale, but that one is just a typo in the listing I'm pretty sure.

    Situated on a large 82X145 fully fenced lot, giving you ample room and tons of outdoor space for your family.

    It's a regular town lot surrounded by others.

  • What are your most recently visited Wikipedia pages?

    Jump

  • Now I kind of want to have a daily Lemmy thread where we read and discuss a random Wikipedia article as a community.

  • Do American drug companies come up with their drug's name or jingle first

    Jump

  • Amazing Fact of the Day

    Jump

  • Software engineer lost his $150K-a-year job to AI—he’s been rejected from 800 jobs and forced to DoorDash and live in a trailer to make ends meet

    Jump

  • Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.

  • Ticketmaster proudly announces it will follow the law and show prices up-front

    Jump

  • It's such a good idea. I can't believe they didn't think of it sooner.

  • TM Signal

    Jump

  • It's actually possible in a way:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SafetyNet

    But you necessarily need to limit the devices and operating systems that are allowed. No custom ROMs, no root access, etc.

    It's bullshit and breaks open computing as a concept.

  • In regard to Hyprland and Fascism

    Jump

  • I don't disagree exactly, but I'd argue that you're contributing to the project even if you're just reporting bugs or helping others with it on e.g. Lemmy.

    I could see avoiding all of that pragmatically in order to use some obscure, critical software, but not something you use every day and for which there are reasonable alternatives.

  • Firefox could be doomed without Google search deal, says executive

    Jump

  • This is what I came here to say. This is a sovereignty issue they could solve with a miniscule portion of their defense budgets.

  • Those working from say 1970 to 2000, did you notice a change in office tempers as lead poisoning wound down?

    Jump

  • It's buckets of people that had those different lead levels, so it adds up to everyone.

  • Lenovo Cuts the Windows Tax and offers Cheaper Laptops with Linux Pre-installed

    Jump

  • It's kind of absurd. When you buy a TV, the bloated adware at least helps lower the price. Imagine paying extra for it.

  • Do you use your turn signal in a turn-only lane? Why or why not?

    Jump

  • I always would. The only time it becomes a bit ambiguous is if there are two turn lanes, e.g. you're turning left from the second-to-left lane. In that case I'd usually indicate later, maybe when I've stopped or the white line is solid, so it's clear I'm not trying to change lanes.

    I'm probably over thinking it.

  • In how many languages can you count to 10?

    Jump

  • If you didn't cheat that's actually pretty impressive.

  • My first time making a chimichanga

    Jump

  • I trust you to make more of them.

  • What are some fun charming series like Father Ted?

    Jump

  • Probably not what you're looking for, but it just occured to me that Ted Lasso might be the closest modern show to this sort of cosy/wholesome British sitcom.

    Also if you want something really on the nose, I seem to remember enjoying Rev:

    Edit: bonus recommendation for The Royle Family

  • My first time making a chimichanga

    Jump

  • I haven't had a chimichanga in so long that I forgot it was a thing.

    We urgently need to see a cross-section.

  • Tuxedo OS (Ubuntu-based) with KDE/Wayland - waking from Sleep freezes the computer. Help?

    Jump

  • Fair enough, most of that isn't something a user should have to worry about.

    VT is just Virtual Terminals. You always have one of them active, and in most distros you can switch to others by Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F12. In some distos it's just Alt-F1.

    So if you press Ctrl-Alt-F2 you should be brought to a text login. For crazy historical reasons you may have to either press Ctrl-Alt-F1 or Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to your usual graphical session.

    Arch docs for example: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Linux_console

  • Android to-do list app

    Jump

  • I use Orgzly, but that's mostly because I sync it with Emacs on other devices. I tend to organise things in a tree, but it's quite flexible.
