What am I missing in the "end Kernel panic" one?

You actually think you're going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc

Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn't get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I'm in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It's okay, I guess, but I wouldn't go if I weren't paid lol

That was a good read with some helpful tips, but they didn't have a conclusion at the end so they never answered their own question!

Cool, I just installed Thunderbird and am giving it a go.

I'm all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I'm wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?

Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol

So I want to build a home server to use as a media server, and to back up my photos etc.

I am also currently doing an online course, and happen to spend some time at work as well as at home working on it. I don't like using Google where I can help it, but I find google docs really useful. So I'm wondering if there's an open source application that works essentially the same, but I could run off my own server? It would have to be web-based as I use Windows at work and can't install new programs :/

edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I've got quite a few leads to follow now, it should be fun!

How dare they!

Maybe to avoid confusion, they should just display units in GB instead of GiB? Or just display both

This is fucking amazing

or maybe eX-twitter

I like the idea of calling it ex-twitter. I came up with the idea when I was having a shower.. Hang on.. there's a community for that! brb

I wish I could just up and buy a farm, that sounds like the life to me.

I just stumbled across this while trying to learn a bit more about using the command line, and thought others might appreciate it. It comes in a printable format so you can stick it up on your wall :)

So one of the benefits of a streaming service is the recommendation algorithm suggesting new shows to you. They're not perfect but I have discovered great shows in the past because of it. So to replace that I've found a great app called JustWatch. It asks you to select what services you're subscribed to so I just choose all of them, then select what shows I've watched and which I liked, and its algorithm suggests new shows to watch. You can also use it to track what episodes you're up to, which I'm sure is great for people more organised and less ADHD than I am!

Disclaimer - I suspect this app is australian-centric, but there must be other apps out there for your country too.
