Not sure how do you call this yearly car health check-up in English? You know when your car gets a licence to be driven for the next 12 months.

Anyway, I love how these still use Windows XP. :icon_mario_pixel:

Mac users often tell me that 8GB of Mac RAM equals 16GB of PC RAM.

Daily reminder to pirate games so that you can have a better experience than paying customers. Or pay for the game, but play a pirated copy. 🤷

Post your #RetroComputing and #RetroGaming setup. Post your #Gaming setup too! Or both together. 🤓

New #Linux home server for files and stuff. It's a bit 2009 but it will do.

I get more views on my videos than I have subscribed people. This gives me hope that #Linux users are finding my stuff useful. Thanks!

Is this photo OK for my next video thumbnail? The topic is installing #Ubuntu GNU / #Linux.

A question for #Linux #Wayland users. I am running Debian stable with Plasma and my computer was freezing randomly, and very often. Let's say once per day. I was about to start replacing hardware components to find the guilty party, but then I switched from Wayland to X11 and it has been a couple of weeks with not a single freeze. Is it possible that Wayland is this unstable or am I doing something wrong? My GPU is Radeon 6000 if this matters.

Mojang should consider putting #Minecraft on #Steam. :giga_chad: Because why not.

I use #Tidal less and less, as I am rekindling my love for modern technology such as music CDs. :drake_like:

Comparing #Diablo on PC vs Diablo on #Amiga. I must say that Amiga holds up amazing.

A friend just told me how he moved from Twitter to Threads and how peaceful and beautiful it is. But I can't help but wonder about how many Mastodon servers will block Threads and how many users of those servers will move to a different instance because of that.

When people who have a different opinion from mine mute me because they cannot handle opinions different than theirs, is it okay if I mute them back? I love a good argument, but talking to a wall is not my thing. I am on Fediverse because I like the conversation.

After seeing @dark1ltg #SteamDeck one-year-review would you be interested in yet another review from a person who has preordered it in July 2021? Would it make sense for me to create that?

I’m looking for a reason to wake up my YouTube channel, TBH. Let me know.

If we disregard the native "deb" version of #Discord, which one of these is better (less issues due to container nature)?

This stat is rather interesting. People actually watch my YT but without subbing. Oh well, I am okay with that as long as they watch. :giga_chad:

Which thumbnail is the best for my upcoming hardware review? I need opinions, please.

@system76 you can vote as well. :drake_like:

I am still debating (with myself) whether I want to pay for a private email service or build my own. I have experience, but maintaining a delicate online service requires continuous time investment.

What I am not debating is whether I wish to distance myself from big tech.

If you stream games on Twitch and make #Gaming clips on youtube, but you aren’t a YT partner (less than 1000 subs) and you have 10 regular viewers on Twitch and you REALLY love what you do, can you technically consider it your career if you really believe in it?

I don’t want to put my definition of career meaning here so I don’t put words into your mouth. I need to know if the above can be considered a career.

If all #VideoGames were offered as free OR paid on Steam, how would you prefer them? Would you prefer to play all games for free or would you prefer to pay for them to have them delivered to you via Steam? Note: Free ones are installed solo. No launcher, no achievements, no cloud save, no friends list, no Steam year-in-review, no hours played counter, no Steam Workshop, no Steam cards, no game decorations in Steam points shop, but you don't have to pay for any game, ever.

Are you happy with laptops that have one battery nowadays or would you prefer to "go back" to having one internal and one hot swappable?

darth, 2 months ago to books

Can someone help me decode something regarding #DUNE books? Please check this URL:

https://www.amazon.com/Dune-Frank-Herbert-ebook/dp/B00B7NPRY8/

It says 892 pages in print* and it contains three books within:

• dune
• muad'dib
• the prophet

Specifically I am asking about the #eBook version: Is this an abridged version or not? 892 pages seems a very low pint number for three #books, but everyone is saying that abridged books have that "feature" clearly marked.

I want to read original work of Frank Herbert, but in eBook format.
