When I am travelling I use the deck and dock to order product (Libra office), Email, checking credentials of staff and watch video.

Only issue I have is the stupid jumping of frames when watching video in firefox due to not knowing how to turn of the stupid “smoothing” crap.

Oh, yeah!

That’s going to be a whole thing soon. Yay.

Well it is kinda in the name.

Eh I am used to it. Even when I ask for an example of a end user getting compromised from using out of date software (like a news story, court case, etc.) and they come up empty I am still somehow the “insane” one. You are better to learn to back up things, not get caught in phishing attacks (the most common risk) and watch your accounts then even worrying about security updates.

Worked 15 years in the industry but, hey what do I know… Not like your bank is still using server 2008 and windows 7 or anything…

4. Use another OS (I hear temple OS is even better then 11 these days)

I would vote for 2. myself, its not like the security updates have been deal breakers before (nothing is secure anyway).

So I was around during this time and yes ads did play a part in this, but not like you think. The ads where how these companies planned to pay for the sat nav data (came on a DVD). They had restaurant and gas station suggestion with the same detour “feature”.

Fun part is that it fell apart quick since almost no one updated there sat nav and you can still get a 2008 acura with recommendations for places long long gone. Its also fun to see people talking about Zagat rated places on forums from the time.

Thanks I hate it. Also not even new, this shit was what killed in dash sat navs…

Its funny at that point of my life I would have moved for the right job, but these where often my literal job but in a worse place.

Hey at least it is in the same city, I used to get ones for 2000 Km away.

Yeah, first time I have been cheering for line go down that I can think of.

Thanks, I have been watching the graph of the lag behind time and its nice to see it now at 6.1 days.

I was going to say Fallout 4 was the stinker and the only reason it gets as high of praise as it does is just how bad Fallout 76 was and after a lot of patches still is.

Oh wow, yeah its like night and day. Well now I guess I have to figure out a fix.

Sad times if I have to find another instance, again.

Any ideas what can be done longer term to address this (in general)?

Since I can’t see anything here I will check on .world

Used to have .world but for this I just test without logging in.

Thanks for the reply (I was worried no one would) but would that cause the weird behaviour I am seeing? The timing does not seem to match but it could make some sense.

If what you are saying is the cause then Lemmy as a federated whole may now be effectively split up due to sync issues?

I decided to do a bit more then just “hot” and “active” and its the same across all of them except “controversial” and “Most comments”.

“Most comments” has some .world posts in it but does not match using another instance. The only one that seems to line up is ironically sorting by “controversial”,

This is really getting weird and is making it hard to use Lemmy for me. Like I like some of the posts listed but I can not believe the largest instance is not posting anything. To make me more confused this also started at the same time Mander got really slow, and to add to the weirdness refreshing the page gives entirely different sorting of posts maybe one out of five times.

I am confused why they think people would not see this as a great excuse to pirate the single player game. Like at what point does this cross over from not paying for the game though gamepass into just not paying?

As is tradition.

Hmmm I am kinda in this situation now and I have to say I still want to work just not for other people (unless I know them well). I actually am trying to be more active and working on my own stuff makes me feel good and gets me off my ass.

Ha, “fail faster” indeed
