Like this, except it’s operated by the cashier?

Pretry much. Not on a chart, but on the price label of the product you’d be buying. I don’t think any store here does weighing at the cashier.

I’m sure it’s feasible, with enough knowledge and effort. How does the connector of each keyboard look? Do you have an oscilloscope or at least a multimeter to poke the keyboards with? And you’ll be needing that Arduino, either for translating it to the builtin kb port or to USB.

Physical fit is out of the scope of this comment.

Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

Seriously this was very surprising. I’ve been experimenting with GrayJay since it was announced and I largely think it’s a pretty sweet app. I know there are concerns over how it isn’t “true open source” but it’s a hell of a lot more open than ReVanced. Plus, I like the general design and philosophy of the app....

I think they said that they technically don’t block ads. They just don’t implement them. If youtube were to somehow pack ads into the video stream, they wouldn’t go around it. Though I’m sure that in such case an adblock extension would pop up very fast.

No they don’t. Skeletons aren’t real.

Sonar is scary as hell.

Switched to Linux, don't know what to do

Hello everyone, I just installed Linux (I’m new to it), in particular Linux Mint, with dual booted Windows for games. Tinkered with it a bit, loved the way it looked, loved how fast it is, but I really don’t want to stop on one option and stick with it for a while. I want to try new stuff, new distros (that’s how you call...

Very much. No clue how it’s gonna work on mint, but plasma will give you the customizability to fiddle with.

https://suppo.fi/pictrs/image/dc08a659-ebd0-4901-8f46-71f24cd48112.pngI do. I prefer not seeing the same posts every time, especially when they’re mostly just memes.

Am I going off the deep end by considering Fedora Silverblue or Kinoite?

I recently switched my server over to running Plex and Home Assistant in Docker. I like the ease of transfer (just move my compose file and one directory where I have stored all the configs and I’m set) as well as the simple permissions management to give access to directories....

Tried it before, but went back to normal version. I recall it being slightly limited in package availability and some apps requiring extra fiddling.

Maybe it’ll be fine for your use case, though.

As a fedoraman myself, I think Pop!_OS is a great option.

But are you doing this because your friend wants linux or because you want it? It’s okay to recommend it but don’t push it if they don’t need it.

university wifi eduroam doesn’t work on Fedora

As a fedora eduroam user I’m pretty sure it does.

Yeah, I missed that. Sorry, guess I should pay more attention.

I noticed an extra word and looked it up.

‘I Still Don’t Care About Cookies’ is a fork of ‘I Don’t Care About Cookies’. It’s not owned by Avast.

Downvotes aren't intended for the subject of the news, but for OP for making the post. If you hate the subject, I guess the correct action is to express it in the comments, or give an upvote if someone else already did.

I like the thought behind this idea but I don't think it's a good solution. It requires having a reputation score, which I think outweighs the positives here. I could also see people trying to play this system in a couple different ways, which is just plain bad for discussion culture: encourage others to downvote something without spending the reputation yourself, or collect downvotes with bait content in order to eat through other peoples reputation.

A karma score encourages making poor quality meme posts and comments in large quantities to gain more fake internet points. It's easily abused; Reddit is full of karma farming bots.

No downvotes was also mentioned here, but I heavily disagree. Downvotes, in my opinion are mostly a positive thing. Youtube hiding downvotes was a move towards a "good vibes only, no criticism allowed" type of environment.

Lemmy pretty much meets my ideal in this regard, it has downvotes and doesn't have a broken social credit system.
