VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?4·1 day agoI’ve been off reddit for years before Lemmy. I do have an Instagram account, logged into the app on an otherwise empty Android VM, which means I’m not fully hardcore. Need that because people are way cagey about giving out their phone number, but everyone wants you to write them on insta. Could just ignore that, but I like meeting people.
Nothing non-federated apart from that, though.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Enshittification@lemmy.world•Google fucked a whole generation with Chromebooks, and now they're fucking the next generation with AI23·3 days agoI use the old chrome book I have for writing. It was pretty easy to throw Linux on there. Was cheap when I bought it years ago, and still has like 10 hours of battery life. Just don’t expect it to do much other than text processing and simple Web stuff.
If I remember correctly, they’re all core-boot-able, which is neat. Can’t do that with most other laptops.
Like, I see the problem, but my school actually gave out iPads, which I feel was worse. On the chrome book, you can at least access the file system and Linux.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Keep Your phone for Longer@lemmy.ca•I've kept iPhones for 5 years and Nutribullets for 8 — here's how I nurture my tech and stretch its lifespan2·4 days agoI drop mine plenty. My trick is having a case. I kept my last one till the adhesive on the display failed.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Games@lemmy.world•Baldur’s Gate 4 may happen eventually, but not with Larian StudiosEnglish3·5 days agoI do, but I see that it’s a preference thing. However, the whole game/story felt to me like it was a passion project. I feel like it’s a gamble at best whether or not whoever hasbro finds to do it will be able to give it the same dedication.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phoneEnglish5·7 days ago3 years of security updates, ships with Android 14 and gets two version upgrades, to Android 16, which is the version being released right now. I feel that isn’t the solution either.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Gaming@lemmy.world•Can't relate. *Kills Arabella*English2·12 days agoOh shit, I just killed her in my current playthrough because I thought it didn’t matter anyway. Which sucks. I really love her voice, and she has a fun arc.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Gaming@lemmy.world•Can't relate. *Kills Arabella*English51·12 days agoYou need a mod for this. In Vanilla, if you save the grove, she’s treated as dead. At least that what happened for me.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What OS should I use for self-hosting that doesn't require extensive terminal knowledge?English3·2 months agoI guess you could install cockpit (via Terminal, sorry, but it’s pretty straightforward and there are good guides). After that, you could use the cockpit web interface to deploy docker/podman containers. It’s a bit clunky sometimes, but it does the job purely in UI.
You can also manage updates, backups, etc via cockpit if you install the required modules.
As base, I’d use any stable Linux distro that’s reccomended for server use.

VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto iiiiiiitttttttttttt@programming.dev•Zoomers & Boomers are the sameEnglish2·2 months agoUh, if he’s your son, you might be able to teach him? Like, without my parents encouraging it, I don’t think I’d have learned half as much about computers as I did in my childhood/teens.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto iiiiiiitttttttttttt@programming.dev•Zoomers & Boomers are the sameEnglish1·2 months agoReally depends early GenZ was born in the late 90s/early 00s, and I can Attest that there’s quite a few who’re pretty good with computers. Mostly depends on what you got in touch with at home.
Now, Gen Alpha, I’d say, is on average proper fucked regarding computer knowledge.
Or, more to the point, the generational blocks don’t really matter much for this, but there’s certainly a declining aclemation with basic OS concepts.
I am on Linux. I connect an Xbox Controller, it just works.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Linux@lemmy.ml•Atomic Linux Distros: What Barriers Stand Between You and Making the Switch?2·2 months agoI use atomic distros on my server and a media centre, but don’t see any reason to do it on my main systems. Stability is fine, and atomic distros make said tinkering more difficult.
Apartment person here. I use electric. An electric train, that is.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone.English6·2 months agoGraphene doesn’t. The way I see it is like buying a laptop with pre-installed Windows, and replacing the OS.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zonetoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•What do you mean all those cameras didn't get anything usable?3·3 months agoYeah, I suppose you’re right. Might not want to get too familiar with having collateral damage in our vocabulary.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zonetoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•What do you mean all those cameras didn't get anything usable?31·3 months agoLol, ML image recognition is also AI. Don’t think they want drones that talk shit.
Huh, I did not know that. Neat.
