Hi, I seek your help once again. I’m in the need of upgrading my storage now and I found what I consider to be a good deal via Amazon on an older gen enterprise WD drive that supposedly hasn’t been used, but I’ll let the power on hours tell me the truth.

I am using fedora silverblue and in the native version of Firefox, the picture in picture window does not have always on top enabled.

My friend is a customer service rep who is ready to retire. Her company is talking about layoffs with 13+ weeks of severance, but when she asked (anonymously) if they were accepting volunteers, they said no. In case she’s not one of the ones told to clean out her desk, what are the ways she could get terminated while...

Are there sites you check on a regular basis? What are your browsing habits?

Clothing, accessories, etc. I remember back then buying hoodies from the Canonical Store, but they are not available anymore....

Title. “lmao internet points” and all, but what is the point of participating in a community that sees assumptions and other commonly non-harmful commentaries/posts as “bad” this easily? Do folks in here are really that needy of self-validation, even if it means seeking such from something completely insignificant like...

The VPN provider I use has servers in multiple countries. I was wondering if privacy laws would make it better to VPN to some countries over others when pirating.

I have transmission running on my server in a docker container that is supposed to go through gluetun. If I run test with ipleak and other torrent ip testers it shows my vpn’s ip address. However transmission is running way faster download speeds than deluge or qbit were with the same configuration. It makes me wonder if all...

I’ve got a niece (5) and nephew (3). The niece is really good about finding ways to entertain herself and the nephew will always try and take it for himself and intrude, usually not in a compromising sort of way. Obviously, this is pretty typical kid behavior overall....

I am sure I am just missing something simple… I have prowlarr -> sonarr/radarr -> qbittorrent -> jellyfin I created three directories. /jelly/video /sonarr /radarr.

If I leave the site and come back the next day, I always have to log in again. Is that normal and desired behavior, or is that an issue? I don’t have my browser set up to delete cookies automatically....

Apologies if this isn’t the correct forum. A couple of days back, maybe a week, someone made a post asking if a certain pre-built SFF PC would run Linux. Several people responded that they run that same PC and that it works great. I’m planning to build a PC for my mother and this would be perfect for her needs. However, I...
