Yup. It would also be nice to have a candidate that was outspoken and fighting for things. The two party system sucks

Heaven forbid the Democratic party do something outside the box or unsavory.

America is just a big truck with it's high beams on and nuts hanging from the hitch.

I'm amazed at how many people remember the hardware they purchased 30 years ago.

You really leaned into the 'jerk' vibe with this one

Click a link and need to go back 10x to get back. Yes, I enjoy the footballs.

Coming over from windows again. I've got pretty much everything figured out. I even got a VM going with my CAD software so I don't need to switch between Windows! I was super proud of myself on that one. The last thing I'm having trouble with....

I use pdfxchange for my PDF editor. It works great in wine but they don't have a specific Linux release. (If there is a good PDF editor that is Linux native let me know, I need good Mark up and dimensioning tools that can scale off of the drawings). I'm trying to set it to open PDFs by default but can't figure it out. Does someone have a good (easy) way to do it?

Damnit. This always sucks to hear but it sucks even more when it's someone who's work is (was) enjoyable.

The picture they used for the article is fabulous

"The plaintiff is asking for a refund for his tickets and/or profits from the show. He’s also seeking a jury trial in the case."

I read this as "I want attention"

I'm not sure what's worse, the insurance was cut or that a life saving drug is 2.1 million?!

I wish Logitech and all the other big peripheral companies would lose the software. They usually make your keyboard extremely annoying colors unless you install their crap

Anyone have suggestions for a 10 year old who likes comic mischief? He's a huge fan of diary of a wimpy kid series but his reading level has moved beyond that. He's also really enjoyed the wild robot series, Matilda, and the skunk and fox books.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: thank you all for your great recommendations. I'm going to check them all out with him tonight!

I've set up a jellyfin server on a Windows desktop machine (yeah I know, not the best option). I think hardware server side is more than sufficient with i7 4790 3.6ghz, 3060ti, 32gb ram. For client I'm using Xbox One x with jellyfin client. The server is currently connected via WiFi. I'm getting playback stuttering after about 20 min or so of playback. I'm hoping to get some guidance for transcoding settings and general setup help.

I don't think it's simply wifi causing the issue as the playback bar on Xbox shows the video is buffered for several minutes ahead of playback location.

Why doesn't a Tesla smell like a new car? Because it has an Elon musk. (From dad joke lemmy a couple days ago)

Many are on lemmy because they dropped Reddit. Myself included. I was an active user on Reddit for well over a decade. This guy seems pretty serious
