Been thinking of making a post like this for some time, apologies if some of this is not completely relevant: this community seems more like it’s about Reddit the platform/product than Reddit the social “thing”, but I’m sure a lot of people have similar experiences to mine. Maybe on some instances more than others....
I currently have a low end Windows gaming laptop that I was planning to upgrade to Linux before Win10 goes end of life, but my HDMI port stopped working, so now I’m debating buying a new Linux laptop instead. Can anyone provide any recommendations?...
Does your current laptop have a dedicated graphics card?
Can you try a USB to HDMI adapter? I don’t recall how they work with a dedicated card. Haven’t used one since Intel i7 gen 2 days, so my reference points are no longer relevant.
That means asking the “teenagers” to keep doing it will make them stop.
So we have to tell them that “we would be displeased and upset if the boats keep getting attacked.” And maybe throw a little adult hissy fit during an attack. And then the “teenagers” will keep doing it to antagonize the human adults.

It’s good to exercise the mind, just like exercising the body.
What if 25% of car drivers could handle their own car maintenance? The one downside people will scream at first is that fewer mechanics will be needed.
But that is too short sided.
More home mechanics will need to buy more tools, so that’s more store jobs and more manufacturing jobs and more shipping/trucking jobs.
And more people who understand mechanics mean a better workforce who can invent new/better products or processes. And can do more research into manufacturing science, which would improve society.
This would also lead to safer cars because they are better roadworthy, and car manufacturers would have a harder time using low quality parts.
So all of those changes would apply to technology when more people know how to use technology.
I’m not saying that today everyone should push a button and start self hosting. I’m saying it would be great if more people learn to self host and that there are benefits to people learning more.
People don’t just absorb knowledge. It will require education programs.
I am not talking about jank yolo prayer work. I’m talking about people learning how to do something properly. Duct tape a car is not the repair I’m talking about.
You are complaining about there not being enough skilled workers today. I’m talking about people learning the skills over time.
Look at how many types of food and products are starting to promote cleaner ingredients and more sustainable materials as people are starting to learn more about their health and the environment. People can learn and thing can get better.
Yes, I’m commenting on the standard, not attacking you.
I don’t hear about boys having problems with average to baggy shorts. To find anything smaller than average shorts, you have to actively look for it, and run into places that plain don’t carry that.
Oh, I didn’t know you were blocked from the internet and cannot post your own evidence. I’m so sad for your sheltered world. I hope you get internet access some day.
PS For the other people who can think, I did leave purposely leave enough space below to show there are not other options that were cropped out.
Yes. I’m a very fat man. I wear a shirt. I have the option to flick it once or twice and suddenly the world isn’t looking at every fold of my man boobs.
If I were wearing the spandex material of a woman’s bathing suit on as my top, everyone would see my man boobs all the time, dry or wet.
What if someone doesn’t want to show off their entire hip, the shape of their ass, their crotch, their stomach, their boobs, their under arms, or their bare back, or their bare arms?
When men wear a shirt, they can easily go into any informal setting.
A woman would have to completely wear a completely different top and different bottoms to be able to go most places.
Gladly. Are you going to have a kid, and then put the most amazing gift for them on the counter in plain view, but tell them for their entire existence they cannot touch it?
Also, I know no details about the fruit of knowledge that a talking snake tricked them into taking. So if you want to reach me some details, I will reevaluate my stance in light of new knowledge.
Is it possible to use Linux without the command line?
We’ve all heard it before: People claiming Linux isn’t a viable alternative cause you can’t run it without using the command line....

It's been around a year since a lot of us quit Reddit, myself included. I'm happy with Lemmy, but I still feel a bit lost online since leaving the old site. Discussion?

Would it be a good thing for the average person to self-host their apps? If so, how to get there?
