Same here, it’s the reason why I kicked Ubuntu off my laptop. They removed any way to choose and made it such a pain to get around the Snap bullshit. I’m on Linux because I want to choose what I do with my system.

Microsoft is the “Linux salesman of the year” because most people switching to Linux do it just because Windows has become so terrible.

Reddit just feels like Facebook these days. Niche subs are not affected as much, but the vast majority is just low quality trash, gossip, selfies and unhinged political discussion.

When people say they want Lemmy to become the new reddit, they are not talking about the reddit of today, more like the one from <2015.

Hosting costs probably. Rolling back a patch is a rare scenario and Steam would have to host every version of every game in their store on their servers indefinitely.

There are a number of legends surrounding the pirate Klaus Störtebeker, who was active in the 14th century. The most popular one is probably that when he and his crew were facing execution, he made a deal with the mayor of Hamburg that if he manages to walk past any of his fellow prisoners after his beheading, they’d be spared. His headless body supposedly walked past eleven pirates until the executioner made him stumble. The mayor did not keep his word and all 73 members of the crew were killed.

These are aftermarket taillights.

I hated Windows 8 enough to put up with it at the time. It’s nuts how much things have improved since then.

Hopefully that means that we’ll get a new Brothers in Arms sequel at some point.

I think the reality is that no one on Reddit gives a shit about Lemmy

I wouldn’t be so sure:

I know a guy that put one of these on his 2003 Smart ForTwo.

It’s only half a kneel, so let’s just call it eel.

Not sure about this specific model, but in older cars things like this are almost always caused by either too high or too low resistance in the wiring harness or headlight assembly itself because that’s how the car detects when a light is out.

This is less about the instance as a whole. The !worldnews@lemmy.ml mods are notoriously terrible. It’s best to just avoid the community altogether.

Nice reference

I’m pretty sure a lot of the mods here on Lemmy are just former moderators from reddit that were fed up with the site (me included).

Same here, at least so I thought until I started distro-hopping out of curiosity. And I learned that there are a ton of Nvidia specific problems on a lot of different distributions. I guess I just got lucky with my main setup that I’ve been using since around the same time.

I’m on Neon User Edition and 6.0.0 is the latest version. I’m currently running 6.5.0-25-generic.
