Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I upgraded to windows 11 by accidentally pressing spacebar on startup
3·1 day agoI installed Zorin on a second hand thinkcentre yesterday to test out, and I really like it. I use Mint on my laptop, and I’m pretty satisfied with that. I’m evaluating both of them as a permanent replacement for windows 11 on my main PC and it’s down to those two.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a TV series that you really, really liked and would enthusiastically recommend?
1·3 days agoThe Eps do go downhill after season 2.
Season 1 is the best, all that janky early space stuff is so cool. Season 2 is pretty good, but some episodes are a bit weak.
The first episode of S3 was a big let-down. The out of control space hotel, all the obvious engineering design flaws, all those astronauts in one place reacting way too slowly to a crisis. The commander deferring station decisions to Karen Baldwin (not an astronaut), and the convenient dearh of Sam. And the cheesy tension building “if it exceeds 4 gees it explodes” felt like a mediocre sci fi thriller.
But I kept watching the show. Some of the dramas get progressively sillier and higher stakes, which is entertaining, if you can suspend your technical engineering disbelief, and common sense. It becomes more predictable in building up a character and getting you attached to them right before putting them in mortal peril.
But I still watched them all because I’m not a quitter.

4·6 days agoI built it mostly for my mum and dad so that dad could download MP3 music and mum could download her sewing videos and play them in VLC.
Thing is, the domain is registered to me, hosted on my own metal, and run in my own house. I don’t really think I’m smart enough to fully secure and obfuscate my site, but also not dumb enough to let the public go ham on it while exposing myself to legal action from one of the most powerful companies on earth.
If I get time soon, I’ll try to spin up a clone with some layers of protection and anonymity, and share that.

You know those rubber feet things you can get that you put on furniture legs? I love those. Block out the LED lights on the air conditioning in the bedroom, computers, etc.
I think black nail polish can work too, if you know any BTGGs.
