I get my books for my used Kindle off Libby because I have no expectation of ownership and I don't want to give Amazon the satisfaction of my money.

This is 100% engagement bait.

 

Downloading packages as an unprivileged user is a pretty neat update for people who want to do that.

Not so much anymore. The SUV craze affected cop cars too.

I noticed that the computer was magnetic and played with magnets around it. The hard drive was totally wiped. Now my parents could have reinstalled the operating system but they just got a new computer instead.

More devices need to come with Linux out of the box. It should be possible to buy a device with Linux at your local Walmart.

It won't, but it will be sold, and the moderation and censorship practices will change.

Be sure to remember to Activate Linux after a motherboard switch!

First full time distro was Manjaro. First exposure to desktop Linux was Ubuntu on a crappy school netbook. Now I use Arch (btw)

Like others have said, the community aspect of Lemmy allows me to follow things I enjoy, not people who may or may not post something I like. Additionally, even a simple algorithm that sorts content based on perceived relevancy makes it so I can see the stuff I want to see first (though someone did point out that that isn't entirely fair, but the "New" sort does provide that experience).

Yeah I get it. But it could be so much more than that.

Most smart TVs have a dumb mode. As long as you can plug in anything you want you should be fine.

 

Low power TV station takes advantage of the fact most TVs support H.264 and HEVC video codecs to broadcast 14 HD programs over the air.
