Air passengers in for another turbulent summer, experts fear, following thousands of cancellations and delays (www.thestar.com)

Air Canada added more flights and converted or got rid of planes in their fleet which got rid of slack in the line to account for delays or repairs. So their method to attract people back is to make the service worse. Interest strategy.

That’s been worked on according to the GitHub issues and is going to be added to wefwef even though it’s not a native Lemmy function.

Rising5315,

Yup. That’s a native Reddit feature so it is part of the implementation of a lot of apps. In wefwef’s case I’m not sure how they developed it because I don’t think that’sa native feature of Lemmy

Rising5315,

You could try distrosea before committing to an install.

It gives you a VM online to play around in for almost any distro you can think of.

Don’t forget that desktop environment (DE) and distro are decoupled in Linux, so if you didn’t like the feel of Ubuntu (GNOME DE) you can go with Kubuntu (KDE Plasma DE). Both are on DistroSea.

Rising5315,

Makes me think DRM and TPM functions as well in that case too.

Rising5315,

Break up the Weston vertical monopoly and watch how fast the rest starts evening out.

Rising5315,

I was curious so I went and looked. Wow.

They’re inconvenienced so it should all end and we should all give up.

Really hope they’re never part of any union I’m a part of.

Here is a good matrix of which media server app supports what.

That being said, I’d still recommend Plex for anything more than just a project.

Rising5315,

Whoops! Fixed

It's a really fun time to self-host today

I've never had so much fun self-hosting. A decade or so ago I was hosting things on Linode and running all kinds of servers for myself but with the rise of cloud services, I favored just giving everything to Google. I noticed how popular this community was on Reddit/Lemmy and now it's my new addiction....

Rising5315,

I set up wireguard vpn and took down all my reverse proxies as it feels more secure and is easier to maintain.

From what I’ve heard tailscale is a step easier as well. So you could vpn into your network rather than accessing the services via URL.

Rising5315,

If 99% of what you do is in front of a computer and the other 1% is in meetings there’s no reason there shouldn’t be remote work.

I moved fully remote a year ago for several reasons, and as much as I miss the office camaraderie, my wallet, belt line and mental health all appreciate it a lot.

Rising5315,

I started intermittent fasting at home and it helped a lot. For me IF cuts down on a lot of snacking just from the nature of usually being more full between those hours and being strict outside of them.

At the office we used to go for lunch all the time and the two restaurants in walking distance are a pub and an Italian place. If there were a more healthy option maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

Rising5315,

Especially not Linux users. This isn’t grandma with windows 95, or Uncle with his iPhone, Linux users are almost guaranteed to have in the past tried other distros.

They will again. Begrudgingly, but they won’t look back either.

Rising5315,

Even if that were true, which it’s not, the case made here in this thread is that the “Democrat” pedophiles have gotten caught, turned in and/or given a sentence that involves being on the sexual offenders list.

The Republicans are then therefore all getting off scott-free and put into positions of power over people where they are more likely to reoffend.

If I have to choose which system I think I’d prefer I think I know which one I’m choosing.

Rising5315,

I checked up on the thread on Reddit because I was curious. Apparently he’s part of the log jam keeping the youth who looked good on the team this year from making the squad.

He was a slow, heavy skater who just had his Achilles sliced, so it’s likely he’ll lose a step there too.

This is looking like a contract dump.

Hot sauce on peanut butter on toast.

Don’t knock it until you try it.

Reddit is in danger of a death spiral (www.zdnet.com)

Huffman has said, "We are not in the business of giving that [Reddit's content] away for free." That stance makes sense. But it also ignores the reality that all of Reddit's content has been given to it for free by its millions of users. Further, it leaves aside the fact that the content has been orchestrated by its thousands of...

Rising5315,

Definitely. A lot of Reddit mods, or the “landed gentry”, are mods because they likely made the sun because they had a niche interest they were carving out a forum for.

In the same groups a found a lot of the mods were people who participated in the community a lot. And then the others that participated were the first to get added to the mod list.

Most of the time on most of the subreddits that aren’t defaults and don’t regularly hit the front page the mods are just users who love that particular subject, idea, whatever.

Rising5315,

I feel like Reddit has been teetering for a while.

It’s been a great move. I have been back to Reddit a couple times since and the anger is striking after being here for a bit.

Rising5315,

I used to work consumer help desk and 90% of the actual virus problems people brought in their machines for were from Facebook ads.

The site is riddled.

Rising5315,

Anyone that says we’re “past” the days of forums, Reddit, Lemmy, etc. has an incredibly myopic view of what those really constitute.

It’s been mentioned the communities, but the problem solving and wealth of knowledge of those small, hyper-focused communities are unmatched.

Look no further than trying to find fixes through a web search, 90% of the crap you have to wade through is blogspam, which is mostly robot copy/pasted from other blogspam. The really helpful stuff is old forums and Reddit.

You can’t replace those specific questions and that specific knowledge with microblogs, blogs, or long form stuff like medium.

Rising5315,

This is the result of the NHL being an old boys’ club and always afraid to go against the grain.

They can’t stand for anything and they can’t speak out or have true leaders because anybody that does is blackballed or told to pipe down.

I really hope we see the youth take the game from their old wrinkly hands one of these days.

Rising5315,

Lutris does pretty much all the main game stores. GOG, Steam, Uplay, EAOrigin, Epic. IIRC they also have custom wine scripts to install with recommended settings so you almost always have the best config out of the box.

There’s also Heroic, which only does GOG and Epic, but is a bit cleaner and easier to use.

Rising5315,

The telemetry goes way beyond the TPM module. W11 will data harvest whether you have it on or not

Rising5315,

Because the controversy is drumming up news. He’s the face of that and it’s all for the IPO.

No publicity is bad publicity and all that, but he’s also getting ahead of all the other news so that anyone possible investors might be interested.

None of this is for us anymore. Not us the former users, the current users or us “regular people”. He and his handlers are trying to drum up publicity for big money.

Rising5315,

I didn’t own it, but my dad’s friend had it on a computer in the back of his shop. I spent hours back there when he was visiting his friend.
