What are some conventions (in the likes of ComicCon) for techies/nerds, computer/data folks? Maybe one that occurs in many cities, like ComicCon...

Do you think that the person must be...

Hi all, I’m pretty new to the fediverse and have tried learning about the way it works. I have tried finding some information in vain, so I have ended up mostly reasoning about it by drawing parallels with other non federated systems but I feel it’s not accurate....

I remember when 1Password still supported local encrypted vaults that I could sync with my cloud provider of choice....

Yes, I’m the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I’m sorry....

What are active users seen in pages like fedidb.org? What constitutes an active user - login, upvote, comment, post? Thanks!

An extreme version of this is: What should the German health service do if someone says they are willing to donate a kidney as long as it doesn’t go to a Jew?...

What are some of the interesting and popular Kbin magazines ?

I’ve really only put it on some burgers, but would like to see what others like it with :D

So it is convenient and all to use chatGPT from open AI site and to use other AI models on their official sites, but doesn’t feel like a pirate when doing this am I wrong? like OpenAI staff spying on my discussion with my waifu persona I given to ChatGPT, or Midjourney creators knowing about every picture of John Oliver I...

Hello, I want to setup a VPN to dial up my home. I’m having trobules with my WRT3200ACM, and other firmwares aren’t working fine for me due to the oddities of this particular router....

Unsurprisingly, some folks on raddle and reddit seem to have a big problem with lemmy. A lot of it is pure FUD....

So I’ve been using Linux for about a year and a half, have been using Window managers since a few wweks in, have been using Wayland for the last 3 months or so, and have been using Hyprland for about a month. I love it and I want to stick with it in the long term, but I need a distro that supports it....

One thing Reddit dominates on is search results. I’m looking things up and seeing so many links to reddit, which I guess is going to help keep that place relevant (unless those subreddits stay dark)....

If the instance I started my community on shuts down, then the whole community is gone. Is there anything I can do as a mod to prepare for this so I can transfer everything onto a new instance? Or is everything lost if my instance shuts down?

So, as any self-respecting datahoarder and selfhoster, I have my server rack populated with a few machines, churning along as they tend to my hobby-related projects. Now that I’ve started using Lemmy I’m toying with the idea of selfhosting an instance, as I have both the hardware, bandwidth, and skillset for it....

I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too...

For me it was Event Horizon, that was scary as hell when I was a kid, I had nightmares for months.

Starting to feel crushed by the weight of the world, riddled with guilt and disappointment in myself over my choices. Nothing I can do about the past though....

I’ve been reporting some stuff and the admins/mods aren’t quite happy there is no report reason provided… can we make that feature more useful for them, instead of just flagging the content?

Power mods are one of the main problems with reddit. The same thing is already happening with Lemmy....

Is there a way to shop around for a Lemmy instance based on how many instances are blocking it and how many instances it’s blocking? For example, I noticed that the lemmygrad.ml instance is relatively popular, but it seems like a lot of other instances block it. It also blocks a bunch of other instances. So, if there are any...

My parents have always been left-wing hippies and entertained the odd conspiracy theory, but during the pandemic they got lost down YouTube rabbit holes and bought into Q-Anon and anti-vax ideas. They still don’t believe Covid is real (even though they blatantly had it…)....

As the title says, I’m looking for a Linux/macOS-compatible EPROM programmer. I’d like to be able to program parallel (E)EPROMs in the 27xxx range. The newer XGecu programmers seem to not be compatible with Linux/macOS, and the selection of TL866(II) clones is too overwhelming for me to be able to choose one....

I’m not trying to hate on the “old memes” in any way, but what happened to all the meme content on Lemmy being made before the last few days?...
