I feel like Linux experience got split into two fragments of reality, as I was an ATI hardcore fan right up until they got bought by AMD and AMD decided 'fuck Linux' and the drivers were so bad for years, I finally switched to Intel/NVIDIA and I've not had a problem aside from an occasional build issue which took a few moments to fix.

I have no love for any of these companies now, but I just haven't had reason to make an architecture jump and its so much easier to just stick with what you know.

Fortunately I did my last upgrade cycle in 2023 so I just missed all this pricing and AI bullshit, so I should be able to wait for another 10 years before upgrading as I usually do. We'll see where things lie at that point.

    Or. OR.

    You say fuck AI and don't use any device with an agent on it, and keep your personal data secured like we did in the 90s and 2000s.

    The techbros did a real number on people it seems. None of their tech is vital or needed unless we allow it to be. You can just have a NAS and Keepass. If AI is not a choice, then fuck the cloud.

    As a Canadian, I did not realize he was on the sidewalk at first because there are double yellow centre lines on the sides of the road and the white road side lines are in the middle.

    Wonder if this dude is from North America

    I've been seeing a lot of startrek.website shares I do showing the wrong desc and image in the unfurl on the posts lately. It was a few of them a week at first, but it's become multiple a day now.

    As the most recent example, the "Look at the time, its 7 of 9" post unfurls like this in signal:

    Is this a known issue? Is there a better place to report instance issues? It kind of looks to me like UUID reuse leading to new posts displaying old images.

     

    As the title says, I'm curious if they ever named or revisited this Human civilization in the later parts of the timeline in any way? It seems like too good of an opportunity to not revisit it at some point.

    My searches did not reveal any answer, so thought I'd ask my fellow trek nerds.

     

    Is the darkspace theme something that comes packaged with Lemmy or something the server admins are throwing together? I love where it's going but its in need of some love.. there's nothing to make the posts readable against the background.

    Complaints are not intended here, I could likely help if someone points me to a place where I can make PRs.
