guess what just broke on my laptop after 2 years

I’m guessing it was the floppy drive?

My biggest problem has been that the ink always dries up, since I don’t print very often, and a laser printer has solved that for me. Now, about 3 years later, the black toner is still at 90%, and still working reliably.

Could we stop with the viruses for a while, please? Just a few years is all I ask.

It’s the Scunthorpe problem.

Calckey sounds like a calculator/math/graphing application and Firefish sounds like another generic fork of Firefox.

They’re implying that all the posts must be astroturfing.

Kbin is tolerable in a mobile browser, but it actually becomes quite good once you decide to use Firefox on mobile and install the Tampermonkey addon along with some community userscripts to improve the functionality. Kbin is much younger than Lemmy, so it’s just playing catch-up right now.

On PC, I very much prefer Kbin’s user interface (but still with custom userscripts and a few minor changes to the theme I use).

Right now I’m using Synology Surveillance Station, but I’d like to replace it (or just supplement it) with Frigate.

I’ve succeeded in setting Frigate up with two cameras and person detection turned on (though no Coral accelerator, so it’s slow and ressource hungry), but now I can’t figure out how to get Home Assistant notifications once a person is detected while my “Home Mode” toggle is turned off in home Assistant.

I’m not good at actually making things happen in HA. I’ve managed to make lights turn on and off via MQTT (output from RTL_433 which listens to some wireless light switches I have), but that’s more or less it.

But then they can’t force you to get Discord Nitro.

With the amount of data I have, it takes Everything about 12 hours to re-index it all.

I currently run Everything in a Linux VM (running with Wine) that has my servers’ shares mounted read-only, but it stops running after a day or two every time. All in all, not very stable.

I’m looking for something better too.

The floss picks are too taut to be able to do that adequately.

The cheap ones I use do go a bit slack, but maybe that’s just because the plastic is cheap and soft.

I can see you from kbin.social.

It’s a lot more plastic waste, but have you tried those fancy plastic sticks with dental floss on, I believe they are called “dental floss picks” in English? Makes it quite easy to floss, and they can be bought bulk pretty cheap, at least where I live.

I mean, it’s insanely easy to avoid being crushed at the bottom of the ocean in a homemade discount sub that everyone has tried to warn you is unsafe

Tell me about it! I’ve been able to avoid it for 30 years, and I haven’t even really been trying that hard!

I use Google Podcasts and it works great for me. I’m not looking for audiophile-level uncompressed audio with podcasts, the way I normally would be for music.
