Linux@lemmy.ml•What are some of your most useful or favorite terminal commands?
11·16 days agoDon’t forget the almighty:
journalctl -fu <servicename>And yes, I am always reading that as “fuck you, service”.

Technology@lemmy.world•UK to “encourage” Apple and Google to put nudity-blocking systems on phonesEnglish
4·16 days agoYeah, but unfortunately, the keyboard does not look promising.
I’m sure we will get there, eventually. Just an uphill battle… As always.

Technology@lemmy.world•UK to “encourage” Apple and Google to put nudity-blocking systems on phonesEnglish
2·16 days agoHardware wise, we’re basically there. Especially since there’s multiple recently-ist mainstream phones on which you can install Linux.
UI/UX seems to be a nightmare though, plus missing software

Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux is awesome at home, but aren't y'all forced to use Windows at work?
16·16 days agoCompany went “here’s your budget for ordering a laptop. Put on it whatever you want”, and so there’s NixOS running on it :)
(To be fair though: small-ish, tech focused company)

Technology@lemmy.world•LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites BacklashEnglish
17·18 days agoI only use the Nvidia Shield remote. It obviously does everything on the Shield, plus tv on/off, and volume. Then I remapped the Netflix button on it to open a little quick actions menu to select brightness/picture mode levels.
Haven’t touched the lg remote since

2912·18 days agoIncredible. What a shit idea.
Anyways, kids, remember: never let your smart devices talk to the internet. We actually love our LG OLED - it’s fantastic hardware. But it has not once, and never will, get the chance to phone home.

Linux@programming.dev•Which Desktop Environment Do Arch Linux Users Prefer
3·24 days agoDo you happen to know how it is with a multi-monitor setup?
I finished setting up Hyprland 2years ago, then learned about the shit community literally the day after being “ah, finally done!” and haven’t found the energy to switch since.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Chat Control approved: Certain EU countries will see your private messages. Is yours on the list?
6·30 days agoMatrix will not be affected. At all.
CP is just a pretext here.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Approximately 1 in 25 Pixel users run GrapheneOS
22·1 month agoThe number of recent updates, it seems. Which is probbaly an OK metric.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Approximately 1 in 25 Pixel users run GrapheneOS
701·1 month agoGraphene explicitly says the 400k are worldwide. You cannot then go ahead and use the US numbers for your comparison. From your own source, Google shipped 10 million Pixel 9 devices in 2023 alone. This does not account for other/older pixel models, or the sum total of sales before that point, or since.
Why not just share the actual number: worldwide, there’s 400k users.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I just wanted to compare FOSS Linux budgeting software
81·1 month agoAnother recmendation for Actual. I spend very little time having to interact with it, because after the initial setup, all transactions are now synched from my bank accounts, and 90% are automatically classified into my categories (not by “AI” or something, you just set rules like “payments to Rewe are always groceries”).

Privacy@lemmy.ml•is Proton the only VPN providing a openvpn configuration? (preferably no U.S./Israeli products)
62·2 months agoSurfshark does too
So do many others, I’d assume

Technology@lemmy.world•Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi SearchEnglish
3·2 months agoYeah, all of the above, but also: blacklisting Pinterest from all my searches is almost worth the ten bucks a month on its own, lmao.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Short summary of my experience with NixOS: pain, admirations, concerns
81·2 months agoNo, not really. The imperativity of ansible vs the declarativity of nix actually does make a big difference in practice.

Technology@lemmy.world•Passkeys Explained: The End of PasswordsEnglish
4·2 months agoYou do not need your fingerprint or any other biometric to use a passkey.
You do not lose access to passkeys when you lose your device.

131·2 months agoI can access my password manager via the browser from any device.

The first time I heard about Star Citizen and S42, I was a teen and wasn’t able to save up enough allowance to buy even the cheapest ship/the game.
Now I’m looking to build a house with the love of my life.
I’ll probably have grandkids by the time this actually comes out. I have zero interest left.
