pretty short read, tl:dr people got fomo

It’s as complicated as you make it to be, and that’s gonna vary WILDLY per person lmao

If you did it with someone else’s photo and THEY said it was doxxing, I think I’d be inclined to side with them. Since it’s your own photo I reckon you get to decide whether or not it’s doxxing.

I’d hesitate to do it myself, but I send a lot of lemmy posts to my friends, who are very intentionally not all equally apprised of my interests/identity lmao

scrubbing floors with an RC car still sounds pretty cool

I’ve got the legion y540 with an RTX 2060, apparently they made this same model number with a couple different gpu‘s.

I have no idea if it officially has linux support or not, I just got frustrated when it wouldn’t stop bluescreen’ing with windows 10. Ubuntu worked fine but was finnacky with peripherals, and I couldn’t change the brightness without fixes. Pop!OS has just worked perfectly across the board, straight out of the box.

What’s whacky is I could swear games run better on linux. Not even natively, like WINDOWS games run better through proton than they did when the same system ran windows. I’d bet a lot of it is just overhead from general bloat; windows is expensive to run these days.

If my experience is anything to go by, just start installing whatever OS strikes your fancy and hope for the best. Keep a windows usb handy just in case, but just start fucken around! You could spend a week reading documentation on ONE SINGLE OS, or you could spend just an afternoon trying probably every single OS you could find a modern ISO for. Just make sure you try the popular ones first hahaha

argh that’s literally the ONE that was tempting me, now I guess I GOTTA buy one! this sucks!

(thank you so much i’ve wanted to buy this since it came out)

Huge is just about 9 times the size of normal.

Goofy like silly, not like unacceptable. Reckon all three of us are happy it’s as high as it is!

I like it! Even if the majority of em completely abandon the accounts afterwards, it’ll increase the visibility of a fledgeling platform AND it’ll show a few folks that alternative social media platforms exist.

I mean, shit, if lemmy can suit my needs there’s no reason it shouldn’t work for at least some of em.

In my head it’s like half a percent, 4.45% seems huge.

ooh! what’s the e-ink notepad, and what’s your usecase like?

it seems so appealing to just have a functionally infinite notebook on hand, but i’ve yet to find one that could ACTUALLY replace a regular physical notebook for me.

I recognize I’m kind of being one of those “it works on my machine!” types, but I’m rolling pop!os on a lenovo built intel/nvidia laptop and have zero issues. Am I just exceptionally lucky?

I think starting a sentence with “For those like me” is a pretty clear indication that someone is speaking for themself

e: i’m just being catty btw, it’s a totally fine use of the phrase

photogimp exists and is fantastic

“The social rating figures don’t affect [a person’s] life, the availability of services or the career trajectory in any way, but who knows what these figures will mean for you in the future?”

What does that even mean? You can’t say “they won’t affect you” and also “who knows how they will affect you?”

aww xp was so charming though!

The phones being worse than the ones I prefer to use.

Like, they’re objectively less functional devices. I can’t pretend the features drops for every new model/OS aren’t just things android has has for years.

That garbage tablet gave me lasting resentment for ARM processors.

Nintype (AKA keyboard 69) is the only double-swipe keyboard I’ve ever used that works worth a damn. Android development was abandoned a while ago, so you’ve gotta find the APK yourself. Someone on the subreddit made a hackjob update called keyboard 71 which fixes some random bugs and introduces some new ones, that’s what I’m currently using. I wanna say I average around 85 wpm typing casually.

It’s also got the smartest autocorrect I’ve ever fucked with, learning dictionary, all that jazz. Damn shame it was abandoned. If it ever stops working on android I reckon I’ll just have to buy an iphone :/

If your hair is neither thick nor fine and you’re not having any problems with buildup or dryness, you’re totally fine to just keep doing what you’re doing. Also if you’ve got straight and/or short hair you can probably ignore the no-sulfates/silicones stuff.

Most hair care products are designed for a specific kind of hair, usually straight and pretty flat. I started using black hair care products and my hair went from wavy and frizzy to natural ringlets and only sorta frizzy! SheaMoisture is my personal favorite brand.
