Steam hardware survey but that will skew towards gamers. That said, it would be a good indicator on how compatible Wayland is.

Absolutely!

This is the most infuriating part. The best solution to these issues is to remove the need to move in the first place, and WFH for the people that want it and who can do it removes a huge amount of traffic with comparably little cost (company laptop, a screen and maybe a desk and chair, many of which could just be taken from the office).

OOTL what’s the risk of Lethal Company? The cray amounts of mods that people pull down or something else?

Can you run a live CD on the machine? You mentioned Memtest but I’m wondering if an Ubuntu one would work.

The general idea that somebody who works a lot of hours is a good/hard worker in contrast to the amount of work actually completed.

What happens if the instance which hosts the community is down but other instances are online? I just made a post to a community on an instance that doesn’t exist anymore, but will other instances get that post, or is it reliant on the instance which hosts the community coming back online?

If sellers can prove that they never touch a customers home address they’re less exposed to data breaches which might look good on for insurance companies.

Honestly, this sounds it something a shipping company could provide. When you go to use Paypal for example, you get redirected to their site, put in your details and they complete the transaction without the seller knowing your financial data. The same could be done with shipping.

I wish we had something like temporary/alias e-mail addresses for physical addresses. So you go to ship something, you provide a shipping alias which the shipping company then derives the true address from and ships the item. The moment the true address is revealed, the alias expires and can no longer be used. This way only the shipping company gets to know your real address and that is ideally discarded once the order has been completed. So forward shipping without the extra step.

My preference would be for WHOIS data to be private unless the owner wants to reveal who they are. I do think it makes sense to require the owner to provide that information to the registrar so it can be obtained by the courts if needed.

This is why people say not to use USB for permanent storage. But, to answer the question:

• From memory, “nofail” means the machine continues to boot if the drive does not show up which explains why it’s showing up as 100GB: you’re seeing the size of the disk mounted to / .
• If the only purpose of these drives is to be passed through to Open Media Vault, why not pass through the drives as USB devices? At least that way only OMV will fail and not the whole host.
• Why USB? Can the drives ve shucked and connected directly to the host or do they use a propriety connector to the drive itself that prevents that?

They will not… combine us? Just forget about the whole “almost every community is on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world” thing. :P
