Amazon is a cesspit now.

I was looking for some Wera allen keys the other day. I wrote “Wera allen keys”. The top 6 items were “sponsored” that looked identical to Wera Allen Keys but were chinese rip offs.

It’s all just designed to con people, just show me what I searched for.

I’m interested in this. Did you read anything? I know nothing but it sounds like a cool project for me and my kid.

Name and shame the dirty tramps

Just had a read through this and exported an image, nice guide. That bit all seems pretty cool and easy! Hardest bit will be making them not look shit. Not sure what software to use to edit the images and stack. I’ve used Lightroom in the past for altering exposure etc but really dont want to pay for it just to edit a few JWST images.

I’m one of them and it sucks.

I used to read more but lately I just can’t focus on a book or dedicate the time.

I do a lot more audiobooks or learning podcasts but that’s mainly so I can do something else at the same time.

I’m trying to actually spend more time reading articles rather than skim them.

How often does syncthing work? Does it keep any version history in Obsidian?

Yeah me too! It’s pushed me to make a backup instance. Whether Tom is just a busy boy or something is wrong, I think this instance needs more admins.

Ah damn. Hopefully soon!

Any schedule on 0.18.4. I’m having a few comment related bugs that are fixed in 0.18.4

I got my SO to use a password manager.

She got sick of pihole and my firewall blocking her Facebook memes, so she has her own segregated WiFi network, then she’s less of an attack vector for me.

Aslong as she uses 2fa on her main accounts and has a password manager I’m happier than most.

Im running Windows 11 on my new laptop. Every major update it’s like:

• PLZ LET EDGE BE UR BROWSER
• BRO PLZ, OFFICE SUBSCRIPTION
• LOCATION?
• Let me just install tiktok and FB apps.

My laptop officially supports Ubuntu, think I might make the switch full time. I don’t game on my laptop and most of it’s use is browser, plex and emails…

I run unraid that does a monthly parity check will that protect?

Is that just an ad? It’s sped up and doesn’t match the timing…

X-eets and x-itter.

Use the Chinese pronunciation

I noticed @tom is the only mod here. Any plans of changing that?

If something happens to @tom lots of people rely on this great instance and it would be great for a contingency plan

There are algorithms working in the background on Reddit to keep you there. Same with pretty much all “social media”. They aren’t on Lemmy. The point of Reddit is to keep you there, and shove as many ads down your throat as possible. Ads don’t exist here, and no one (as far as i can tell) is making money from you being here.

I agree with what you’re saying about the algorithms sucking you in, but disagree that’s the biggest reason. Lemmy just doesn’t have a lot of content, browse HOT or go through your subscriptions and you’re done pretty quick.

Agree’d, people aren’t contributing enough so it seems dead after a 30min check per day (might not be a bad thing).

If lemmy is to thrive and survive, post, comment and start discussions. That’s what is addictive and provides value.

Honestly good. Usb C is so good.

I have a couple of 100w chargers around the house, no messing about can charge nearly everything at full speed.
