  • Where do you draw the line regarding windows?

    Jump

  • It's tied to my job, so I'll stop using Windows when I stop working there.

  • Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why

    Jump

  • I have uninstalled One Drive and enabled a system policy that supposedly sets the default save location to c:\user\documents, and after every single fucking update it defaults back to one drive, hangs for 30 seconds until the stupid ass system realizes that there's no such thing present, and then it opens a "save as" dialogue with some arbitrary path in %user_apps/appdata/onedrive.

    GNARF.

  • Let's end Anti-Circumvention. We should own the things we buy!

    Jump

  • Anti circumventing pushed by an article that doesn't let me circumvent the cookie consent is really next level.

  • All countries starting in letter "I" are in a straight line

    Jump

  • You forgot the Islamic Republic of Sweden.

  • How much are you willing to inconvenience yourself to save money?

    Jump

  • I'll take a bus for 1h rather than pay a taxi to get someplace in 10 min to save $40.

  • To Lemmy people who came from reddit: Have you guys tried other fedi software like mastodon or sharkey?

    Jump

  • No, I never liked Twitter, so I can't even begin to bother about mastodon. Never heard of the other one.

    I tried the Instagram clone for a few days (forgot the name), but it was so empty I left it again.

  • Does anyone actually like... talk to extended family/relatives? Like an active effort to maintain relations and not just because of forced family gatherings?

    Jump

  • Cousins in my age group once every few months maybe, aunts and uncles hardly ever. Not even my own all that frequently, but we have a whatsapp group with those and my parents where we chat somewhat frequently.

  • "Flushable wipes"; "dishwasher-safe"; "odourless" - What are some other blatant lies that companies get away with?

    Jump

  • If you live in a country that is not the US, these things are certified and taken seriously.

  • The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" while I was watching it

    Jump

  • Hm ok. I never look at comments or usernames.

  • What are your best tips for looking busy at work, while actually doing something you enjoy?

    Jump

  • I've downloaded books (novels) in pdf format, emailed them to myself or uploaded them in a public folder, and then printed them (double sided, two pages on one sheet, just like an actual book) in chunks of 20 pages (so 80 pages of the actual book). Stapled the whole thing in one corner, sat down at my desk, pen in hand, scribbling on the pages here and there.

  • The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" while I was watching it

    Jump

  • Source?

    Also (and this is a genuine question): Why would I care? They don't earn anything from me. Does their political affiliation matter when it comes to sourcing copyrighted material?

  • Does Lemmy have more freedom of speech than Reddit?

    Jump

  • Freedom from censorship.

    Which doesn't apply to Lemmy either, different instances just censor different trains of thought.

  • Stack Overflow Rolls Out Native Ads in Q&A Feeds for Funding Boost

    Jump

  • Any "article" starting with the words "in the ever evolving world of"... Lost its credibility before it was even published.

    God what an awful, awful time to be alive.

  • Seven German journalism students tracked Russian-crewed freighters lurking off the Dutch and German coast—and connected them to drone swarms over military bases

    Jump

  • The military probably knew all along, but are not going to tweet out their intel.

  • Tourists from 42 countries will have to submit 5 years of social media history to enter U.S. under Trump plan

    Jump

  • The trump administration can kiss my dick.

    There. This is part of my social media history now.

  • Panchen Lama says reincarnation must follow Chinese laws, be endorsed by Beijing

    Jump

  • Oh they are actually fully open to science. Let them govern magic sky daddies, if it pleases them.

  • EU to impose 3 euro duty on e-commerce parcels from July 2026 in crackdown on cheap Chinese imports such as from Shein, Temu

    Jump

  • Yes, China is still officially classified as a developing country and so gets cheaper postal rates. Also the Chinese government fully covers the export fees for small items, that's why you can order a bag of zip ties for 99 cents and they come all the way from Shenzhen.

  • What Youtube channel has maintained high quality standards over the years?

    Jump

  • Nah still the same, pushing his tools hard in every video.

    Only the April Fool's videos are worth watching now.

  • Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan

    Jump

  • Chill bro, we didn't need another reason not to visit. We got it.
