Memes@sopuli.xyz•Posting in honor of my nieces back to school week 😆
3·8 months agoPretty common where I am (mid-atlantic US). I think it’s a newer development, like in the past 20ish years. I’m not sure what the reason is, the semester isn’t any longer it just starts and ends earlier

Linux@lemmy.ml•What problems does Linux have to overcome to get more users
1·8 months agoI mean hierarchy is how we find any specific item in the real world though, so it seems like the best way to organize things on a computer. If I’m looking for a pair of scissors I know to go into my house, into my kitchen, into the drawer, and take the scissors. You can use tagging and things to search, but having that be the main way of accessing files will never be as reliable or repeatable as just looking where you know the file is.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What problems does Linux have to overcome to get more users
802·8 months agoI think part of the problem is that while Linux software is constantly getting more user friendly, the average user is getting less knowledgeable about computers at just as fast of a rate. People even understanding the concept of files and folders doesn’t seem to be a given anymore.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Wayback 0.1 Released As First Preview Release For X11 Compatibility Layer
4·9 months agoThis project does exactly that, it runs a reimplementation of linux specifically to run wine on platforms that it doesn’t natively support. https://github.com/danoon2/Boxedwine

Linux@lemmy.ml•Protecting against rogue devices with Full Disk Encryption and TPM
1·9 months agoInteresting, how do you recover from that and get your data back?

Linux@lemmy.ml•Protecting against rogue devices with Full Disk Encryption and TPM
1·9 months agoWhat makes TPM+pin safer than just having a normal LUKS password? I would think it would be the same amount of security just with more chance of data loss if your computer gets damaged
Waypipe, I was playing with it a couple days ago and it’s way faster than X11 forwarding which is really nice
True, who better to trust than famously non-imperialist russia.
All I know about north korea is that a student from my university went there, was arrested for stealing a poster, and was never seen alive again. But I suppose that’s a lie, the people who went with him must have lied to the media, or maybe every media agency that covered it lied. Surely that’s more believable

Android@lemdro.id•Your car's infotainment screen is getting a subtle but important facelift with Android Automotive 16English
12·10 months agoLast time I mentioned that someone got angry at me and was like “no one would ever confuse the two, they’re in different product categories”. So to whoever that was, ha ha I win

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Are Fossify trustworthy and recommended?
5·10 months agoI’m not sure of replacements for the other apps, but Aves Libre is the best gallery app I’ve ever used and it’s open source
I think Jeff Geerling made a video trying to game on a similar arm system with mixed results. I’m sure it would work, since you can game on a Raspberry Pi using Box86/64, just probably not too well for the money
Foe the umpteenth time, stop making ai generated memes. No one wants to see them
Which honestly would be great for browser competition, I feel like the best thing anyone who buys chrome can do is ruin it so everyone leaves for other browsers

Open Source@lemmy.ml•WinKey: Ultra simple left windows key disabler
10·1 year agoYeah I’ve never understood how this is a problem people have, I don’t think I’ve ever accidentally pressed it while playing a game
That honestly sounds amazing, especially having Ireland to let you into other EU countries. I’m surprised it’s feasible to get that many citizenships
Yeah that’s such a weird choice, why not like LibreWolf or at least a less weird chromium fork than brave

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is urine that has been aged in a milkjug (say, 85f for a week) grosser than urine that's fresh from the urethra?
