  • What features would you like added to Lemmy itself?

    Jump

  • Already possible, I believe. At least on client level: I've blocked a lot of junk in Voyager

  • What features would you like added to Lemmy itself?

    Jump

  • Notification whenever there's something in the mod queue of a board I moderate. At least I don't see any such notification when using Voyager.

    User migration between instances.

  • Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of November 3rd

    Jump

  • When this group of people on discord are online: Helldivers 2. It's a nice way of killing time while chitchatting.

    When not: Factorio with the recently release Space Age expansion. Absolutely loving it.

  • What do people that are for the first time moving to a place where is snows need to know?

    Jump

  • Norwegian here, and there are some common mistakes I see in people not used to the climate.

    • When walking on ice, at least the very slippery kind, use short steps. It reduces the chance of slipping.
    • And if you do slip and begin to fall, take it like a champ and sit down gracefully. The most comedic sights are the ones flailing to try and stay uptight.
    • Buy a snow shovel.
    • There are many expensive things sold as ice and snow thawers, but these are usually just variations of salt and gravel. Whatever salt you can buy in bulk at the grocery store works just fine. And any sand/gravel that you can find in the summer will do.
    • When shoveling snow, clear a wider path than what you think you'll need. A narrow strip is hard to keep clear after a while of heavy snowfall.
    • If you have a car, make sure to have proper winter tires. If you do, you won't have to bother with snow chains.
    • Car batteries don't like the cold. Make sure yours can hold charge well. Overdoing it with AmpHours is also a bonus.
    • Get a scraper to remove ice from your windshield.
    • Wet feet become cold feet. Stay dry. Wool socks are amazing at keeping your feet both warm and dry.

  • What are your best tips for falling asleep?

    Jump

  • Same. Podcasts are also great, and some are even made specially for this purpose, like Nothing Much Happens.

    Can any one help me out with a quick request?

    Jump

  • Tested it on linux mint, and it works just fine for me. 28G of RAM free, no swap in use.

    Using Firefox 132, mo plugins/add-ons. Fairly stock Mint install, freshly installed yesterday.

  • Can a laptop docking station be used on a KVM switch?

    Jump

  • This depends. I've found that the cheaper KVM solutions are pretty picky when it comes to supported hardware and standards. While the more expensive/industrial ones are more forgiving.

  • What is stopping the vice president from ever murdering the president?

    Jump

  • Well, logically the immunity would also cover the vice president, as the stated argument for immunity was that a president should be able to act without having to clear everything with a lawyer. Logically, a vice president should then also have the same immunity.

    So I guess murdering the president to take their job simply has to be done while shouting "This is an official act of the office of the vice president!" as a battle cry.

  • Is it offensive for me as a man to dress as a male version of a female fictional character for Halloween?'

    Jump

  • Not sure honestly. It may have been the year before. Or even earlier. Or maybe I'm just slow at noticing popular media trends. As you can see, I'm doing great at growing old.

  • What election coverage should I watch?

    Jump

  • If my kids demanded to stay up past bedtime to watch election coverage, I'd be seriously worried

    Jump

  • With all the Bowsettes last year, I'm tempted to say no in the name of equality.

  • What was/is the most annoying thing about Windows when you were/are using it?

    Jump

  • Nowadays it's the online account centric shite and all the privacy implications that come along with it. But even before that it was annoying to just trying to do the thing

    Doing the thing on linux: command that does the thingDoing the thing on windows: click here, click there, click some more, second tab, submenu, click advanced, type in the info, save, ok, "yes I'm sure", click ok, click apply, close 626254 windows, reboot

    What are your favorite ambient spaces in the video games you've played that you really like and would enjoy in real life?

    Jump

  • Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers

    Jump

  • If you use arch you have to start knitting

  • Terminating a process

    Jump

  • Well, with linux you get the option of sending mixed signals through the use of varying count of guns. I find 9 to be highly effective.

  • What is your Brown M&M?

    Jump

  • Whenever I show up to a "mobilization project" which involves lifting and mounting shipping containers of machinery and IT equipment onboard ships, I check whether the containers have had their grounding wires attached, as well as checking if the deck welds have been spray painted with protective coating.If not, I need to check if the cable runs are properly done, deck fiberoptics protected from crane operations, antenna mounted without obstructions, etc.

    Checking random coax cable connections whether they've gotten a proper dose of molycote inside is also a pretty good indicator, but the tech department has gotten really attentive in regards to that. The grounding wire is really the only brown M&M I have left on them.

  • What is the argument for making poor/working class folks shoulder the burden of taxes?

    Jump

  • 20 years ago, the right wing propaganda machine was focused on (before they went full out fascist) low taxes for the "job creators" such as corporations and rich people, on the basis of that leading to more lucrative job opportunities for everyone else. The thinking was that the people and corporations in this low-tax environment would have incentives for creating jobs "here" instead of moving them overseas.

    Not everyone on that side of the isle have realized that this results in jobs still ending up overseas, along with money that could've funded schools, roads, libraries, et al. And many of those who have realized it continue along the same path because it's too profitable for them to do so.

    Remember this next time you hear slogans such as "trickle down economy", or Glitch McConnells favorite: "What's good for the goose is good for the gander".
