CraigeryTheKid, to memes in Someone make glasses that do this please.

I tuned into the NYC new years, and I guess it’s been awhile since I saw images of NYC - holy shit, it looks terrible! HAPPY KIA NEW YEARS! seriously? every inch of building is a scrolling screen. wow.

CraigeryTheKid, to linux in Is it possible to use Google Drive reliably?

I am using rclone with Linux, and works just fine. Just long term backups, but it runs the same speed (slow) as windows-to-proton.

Anyway, point being rclone works!

CraigeryTheKid, to mildlyinteresting in We hit one third of boomers being dead in the last few days.

just don’t touch the eggs!

CraigeryTheKid, (edited ) to asklemmy in Folks in North America, where do you like to get PC parts online these days?

Oh jeez! Good to know.

Amazon is no saint either, obviously; it’s getting hard to buy from anyone if you learn too much about them!

CraigeryTheKid, to asklemmy in Folks in North America, where do you like to get PC parts online these days?

Pre-2014 or so I was 85% Newegg or more.

Post, I’ve been 85%+ Amazon. I buy from B&H when I can, but honestly Amazon tends to dominate the PC partlicker list.

To clarify - I removed Newegg from the vendor list. Won’t even look at them.

CraigeryTheKid, (edited ) to linux in Linux Distros Evolution - January 2024 Update: Pop!_OS in Decline?

PopOS is what got me into Linux, and the only one that worked “out of the the box” for the handful of things I wanted, esp remote desktop.

Yes, anecdotal, but I’m running 3 PCs on Pop and loving it.

Edit: reading the article, and graph, it also looks like the field is more crowded in general. Also, would be good to see total installs over time, not just %.

CraigeryTheKid, to linux in Happy new year of the Linux Desktop!

I can confirm that PopOS 22.04 is definitely running on X. wayland is officially coming when Cosmic releases.

That said, I see that Wayland is “available” if I want to manually switch to it - but it is definitely disabled as a default (and current) setting.

Wait, what? I’m on PopOS, with Nvidia GPU, and my “g-sync” VRR works fine.

CraigeryTheKid, to selfhosted in How safe is self-hosting a public website behind Cloudflare?

That’s what I’m doing! I used it to make a “blog” of all the things I had to learn to switch to Linux for my home drives and daily gaming rig. Complete with copy buttons on the code blocks so I can do a complete reformat in minutes!

CraigeryTheKid, (edited ) to asklemmy in What are your "poor person" money life hacks?

Holy crap pets. Both of my dogs passed, but it was about $1,000/yr each for normal stuff, when you add it all up. Food, vet, boarding, toys, beds, etc. you aren’t kidding.

I also know that people will skip better food and the vet, meaning they end up with unhealthy pets too.

CraigeryTheKid, to linux in What's the best way to remote into a linux machine?

I honestly thought this was the default/classic answer, and am surprised at how far down it was.

I too just started Linux 2 weeks ago, and my search results led me to xrdp on host, and remmina on client.

CraigeryTheKid, to lemmyshitpost in Struggled to make it thru November? There's any easier way.

Is the monorail running?

CraigeryTheKid, to linuxmemes in what's your ubuntu?

Pop! all the way for me. I think Mint was second, but something about Pop just felt so much more natural and smooth. And it had remote desktop option out of the box, whereas all the others I would have had to install something.

CraigeryTheKid, to asklemmy in What MMOs are you all playing?

Oh man I just discovered and joined turtle yesterday! Haven’t had a chance to play, but did confirm it ran without any additional setup on PopOS.

CraigeryTheKid, to memes in Good morning I choose thoughts you've never had before.

asking the important questions, and exactly why I came to the comments. I need answers.
