Alkaline batteries are the crappy ones that leak. Get the more expensive lithium batteries, or go full on rechargeable ones, and you can leave them in without worrying about your device getting ruined.

Star Trek memes and shitposts

What could that possibly mean??

Somewhat related, I’m so annoyed that my USB 3.0 SATA adapter doesn’t pass S.M.A.R.T. data. Didn’t even think to check for such a deficiency. Just another thing to watch out for when buying these adapters.

If you stigmatize psychological care by making it a black mark that shows up on your record, people will just avoid getting the help they need and society will be worse off for it.

It appears it can affect both groups, according to this wiki entry:

Here’s a neat trick to imagine what it could feel like. Close both of your eyes. You see darkness, right? Now close one eye and leave the other one open. You don’t really “see” anything out of that closed eye at all. There’s no darkness. There’s just nothing there.

I saw that some blind people actually have difficulties falling asleep. Because they cant see the sun, their circadian rhythm and they’re sleep/wake signals are all out of sync.

Apparently all that data is included in the ActivityPub protocol. On Kbin, every post has an Activity button that shows every user (even those on other instances) that upvoted/downvoted/saved that post. So if a Lemmy post happens to federate to Kbin, all that info can be seen publicly by anyone.

Look up the instructions for your mail provider to set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records in your DNS so email services know which emails sent from your domain are actually legit. Without those records telling email servers what’s valid and how to handle what’s not, it’s basically the Spiderman pointing at Spiderman meme.

If you haven’t already tried a USB 2.0 flash drive, give that a go. I find they are less finicky to boot from than some 3.0 drives.

Check out the arbitrary list link from !flashlight@lemmy.world in this post:

I’m sure there’s something in there that will fit your needs.

If you are the only user on an instance, your subscriptions are the only ones federating over into the server’s All feed. For example, even if you haven’t posted in all of these communities, is this not essentially your personal list of subscriptions?

Dear M. Eminem

They couldn’t read your comment, unfortunately. All they saw on their screen was:

Linux Mint specifically excludes the snap store due to the many criticisms people have already mentioned here. Doc refers to version 20, but I believe it’s still the same in the current version. Not sure about other ubuntu-based distros though.

I mostly just want to log connections and IPs to have a record of things.

I just use Firefox Sync. Works on all those platforms.

“What’s a checkbox? Oh, you mean that thing we use to trick users into ‘consenting’ to telemetry?”

Yea, I didn’t like that they are going to drop support in the next version or whatever. Not sure if it’s their intended replacement, but Wireguard is installed by default in TrueNAS Bluefin. I recently switched to that, and I find the performance is way better than OpenVPN.

What are you using to monitor wireguard?

My (albeit, somewhat older) j model hits 100% cpu just logging into the web UI. Synologys are nice, but definitely stay away from their budget models.
