Nah fuck that shit, blank my brain out so I experience less of this shithole universe /s

Lemmy.world, which you log into and is the one that receives your VPN connection, uses Cloudflare in front of their server. So it's actually Cloudflare that receives your VPN connection. It's probably giving you that captcha screen which your app can't display (or being denied entirely). I'm on VPN too and when a link makes me open a .world post it gives me the Cloudflare captcha every time.

Not guaranteed to be this reason but my money's on it. Try logging into lemmy.world from your browser on the VPN, will help you troubleshoot if it gives nonstandard pages when trying to post or especially when logging in.

Scammer. People don't think it's a "profession" in the true sense but it absolutely is. Majority of higher up people in scam call centers or phishing campaigns do it as their day job and they certainly make more money than the average honest worker putting in the same amount of effort.

The way I see it, it's basically downgraded to a desktop (assuming it has a separate display output). People use laptops like that as desktops and even home servers all the time.

The two major things to look out for is you probably want to configure it so that closing the lid doesn't put it to sleep, and if possible, detach the battery and just run it off the charger to prevent the battery from puffing up from being constantly charged.

Hell, detach the screen entirely and you basically have a DIY modern Commodore 64.

According to who?

The same people invading other countries in the first place? Not sure I completely trust their judgment on what's moral but that's just me. 🤷

A vegan, an atheist, and a veteran walk into a bar. Veteran immediately one-ups the other two by both bragging about how many people he killed and demanding a discount.

It's also total bullshit how they can just film in a public street and include anyone that happens to pass by in their movie without paying them, in fact they won't even warn you if you're about to walk into a shoot and definitely won't respond to requests to remove your face if you end up in the final movie. But as soon as a famous person's face gets shown they demand royalties and can even force people to destroy footage of them.

Yeah he could've killed more slave owners

His human horn got sold to the Omicronians

Why not just use and support fully open source alternatives like Krita, Inkscape, Kdenlive, etc instead of giving money to Adobe?

This makes me want to use GrapheneOS more. If the dataminers don't want you to use it then it must be doing something right.
