I’d rather the app stays as it is and doesn’t show new windows or randomly move about stuff because new updates. Modern crunch with constantly changing the UI and hiding everything isn’t helpful for elder relatives

Installed mint for an elderly relative that only uses it for YouTube and email, the only calls I get are when mozzila stops working because the version is too old

I was surprised how effective it was for getting a checklist of things I should do to get a car that hasn’t been running for 30 years back on the road and asking for instructions for each step and things I should keep in mind

Outside of that it’s become a Google replacement for software development questions

You do kinda have to know about the things you ask it about so you can spot when it’s bullshiting you

I love the mental image of a government employee having the job of spilling barrels of piss into bathrooms around the nation

I hope you get some help some day

Did you consider not openly proclaiming you wish someone dies?

Ah so the rest of the boys had the same experience I had going to an all boys school then, misery loves company I guess

My mom always bought those, granted they last close to a year but damn the cheap bamboo ones cost practically the same and last forever

A lot of V8 Teslas on YouTube that seem to work alright

Lemmy is a giant echo chamber, every time I browse for a bit I block a community/user or two. And don’t you dare have a differing political opinion to that of the hive mind.

It’s not really a good reddit replacement but if like me you don’t want to install the official reddit app lemmy can be some sort of nicotine patch if you take the time to block all the shit you don’t want to see

Comically enough they put it in sale on steam

Wouldn’t surprise me if they did this to hamper other companies easily scrubbing videos for AI training

The leading party for the last 20 years in my country would say that printing money didn’t bring on inflation. It’s funny how such a simple example beats their economy planning

I’d rather not need sleep at all, with the option to do it sometimes for skipping time

Aren’t there dash cams that record when the car’s stopped?

Growing up in south America and the only thing with local servers were things that could be community hosted like counter strike 1.6 and mu online. 250 ping on every online game wasn’t fun

I wonder what kind of research goes in a lab where someone goes “what if we cut the grub from the pregnant cockroach and test to see it’s nutrition content?”

Can someone eli5 why the graphics card cares about UEFI?

Mine slowly developed kidney failure so over the space of a couple of years it slowly deteriorated more and more and would eat less and less until one day she puked and never wanted to eat anymore. After a week and a half of giving her IVs and giving her water with a syringe we had to sacrifice her because she was clearly never eating again and wouldn’t even want water anymore. Poor thing was skin and bones had lost all muscle in that week and a half we were trying to get her to eat again it felt it was a mercy to put her to sleep but I always hoped she’d just not wake up one day and that’s it over going through all that. She was 17 and even trough all of the pain she must have been in would still walk to the backyard on her own to pee.

I could have never asked for a better dog

I was surprised at how well it works but anything command line is not for normies
