No kidding. It’s been infuriating to see stuff on Facebook again, and I don’t appreciate that it’s been the only way I’ve gotten people to buy used stuff we needed to get rid of to free up space.

Or Craigslist/Facebook marketplace/wherever your town congregates to. My town almost exclusively uses Facebook so I’ll log in long enough to post items when upgrading and usually am not the only one offering pretty cheap used gear there.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•All this produce is going to spoil at the food bank where I volunteerEnglish
70·1 year agoFor the tomatoes you might see if there’s canning groups on Facebook for your area? It takes a metric fuck-ton of tomatoes to make a can of sauce so they’d likely be able to use quite a bit of them.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I'm committing to Linux, but it's so unstable. Any suggestions?
1·2 years agoIt would be worth a try since this seems to be mostly performance related glitches

3·2 years agoOffhand anecdotes here as I only have Ubuntu on a 2012 MacBook.
That said the error post update is likely just a service that didn’t restart properly. Many of these are not necessarily critical, does it say what program crashed? A reboot would guarantee a fix here.
Unfortunately the issues with apps might be the snap packaging, this does slow apps down a bit which could cause pretty much all the remaining issues. I haven’t personally used it but might look up flatpak as a replacement and see if that helps. If others don’t explain how to do this I will try to come edit this later with an explainer or link or something to help.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?
31·2 years agoFor as much hate as it gets Ubuntu (or kubuntu for the kde version) will feel very familiar in usage and will have a newer kernel. It’s my default it just needs to work distro if regular Debian isn’t an issue due to drivers or something similar.

Android@lemmy.world•Google, Qualcomm will support 8 years of Android updates with latest chipsEnglish
3·2 years agoSame here. I would feel much happier to consider shopping around again if more options than just Google offered updates but that never seems to materialize

23·2 years agoTheir phones cost the same as iPhones with imo usually worse hardware which at least to me defeats the purpose.

39·2 years agoNow will any company actually use this? It’s my biggest issue with android phones is so many of them just never get security updates
I love the idea, is there a way to do tap/click to turn the page instead of continuous though? I’ve been looking for something similar to host sheet music for myself but continuous mode is non-workable for my admittedly niche use case.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Do you encrypt your drives and why or why not?
1·2 years agoThis was a few drives ago but there was a point in time when most places were giving me digital copies of tax documents which I could upload to tax prep software but things like TurboTax didn’t have an auto import. So you’d need to download them then re-upload them to the correct service. Now they do it automatically so the only thing that would match that now now is receipts for expenses/donations and what not that I need to keep track of for manual entry.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Do you encrypt your drives and why or why not?
0·2 years agoI started encrypting once I moved to having a decent number of solid state drives as the tech can theoretically leave blocks unerased once they go bad. Before that my primary risk factor was at end of life recycling which I usually did early so I wasn’t overly concerned about tax documents/passwords etc being left as I’d use dd to write over the platters prior to recycling.


Out of curiosity is your nvme drive newer than your bios? I was having intermittent issues on FreeBSD with an nvme drive and it turned out to be due to old bios making the drive “glitch” and mess with zfs.
