Zorin OS is the way to go if you are sticking with the Debian/Ubuntu family. It's basically the Mac OS of Linux distributions, by shipping with a level of polish that other distributions don't deliver. To me this means I did zero tinkering out of the box to have the experience I wanted after spending a day configuring KDE in other distributions any time I did a reinstall. As far as printers go, they have always been hit or miss, but my problems were solved by disabling IPv6 on my local network.

How has A Plague Tail not been mentioned? Most of these mentioned a good games with a sad scene or two thrown in. Plague Tail, especially the sequel will make a grown man ugly cry.

Configurable self-hosted "personal dashboard"?

I would like to have a screen in my home displaying a summary of different information that is relevant to me, like weather forecast, bus/train times, news headlines, etc. I was planning to use a Raspberry Pi and either buy a screen to display the information or just show it on my TV. It could probably be as simple as serving a...

In theory, kbin instances could load balance by defaulting where registration gets posted.

As a bonus when logging in, you typically shouldn't have to choose which instance you connect to because it's in the username.

Only downside of load balancing is differences in admins and federation.

That comment was barely posted, why is it on here?

Scrolled through the comments, how has no one not mentioned A Plague Tail? Amazing story from a woman's perspective

You would use the app to login to a specific instance, and access federated content through that instances API

Futurama food (lemmy.world)

So I am thinking about hosting a Futurama party for the new season premiere. I want to have Futurama theme food and drinks. First thing that comes to my head is Popplers (popcorn chicken or shrimp) and the Slurm recipe I found here https://www.theflavorbender.com/homemade-slurm-drink-futurama/. What other food/drink ideas do you...

If you understand that it's basically a Netflix subscription for ink, it works great, especially if you print photos it can save a lot of money. If you print a few things a month and suddenly go to 400 pages, you might run out of ink before the next set arrives.

When you anticipate running out soon, you have to give CS a call and ask them to send the next set of cartridges sooner than later.

Still, anything is better than paying full retail for refills at Cartridge World.

Because you spent $5 a month instead of $50 on cartridges of ink that will dry up in 3 months if they don't get used. If you need an ink tank, then you aren't worried about photo quality, in which case a laser is better.

I've bounced around Fedora, Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Mint over the years. I've been on Zorin OS going on two years and I'm eagerly waiting for 17 to release. I don't see myself hopping anytime soon.

The new Edge browser is a modified version of Chrome, so more Google than MS.

Firefox on Linux machines at home. Mostly Chrome for work on the MacBook because the employer uses Google for everything.

You can transfer your domain if you act fast, it takes a few days. You may have to pay again on the new registrar though.
