Took me a second to realize this isn’t about elephants.

Nice, where do I get my $5k?
I dream of this kind of storage. I just added a second m.2 with a couple of TB on it and the space is lovely but I can already see I’ll fill it sooner than I’d like.
I found that it does well with actual full on spam in the form of unsolicited mass mails. If there’s anything I’ve subscribed to, it does just dump it into the inbox until I tell it to do otherwise. So mostly decent. I feel like it might be benefiting from their spam sorting but not from the promotional tag.
I forwarded all my gmail addresses to proton recently. I’m very pleased! It works a lot better than gmail-to-gmail forwarding and the UI is purple! Purple!!
I guess if you have unlimited disposable income, but for me improving my experience significantly enough that I notice how pleasant is every day is plenty.
Not being able to enjoy what you have because something better might exist isn’t a hobby, it’s neurosis.
When I first bought my keychron and I got into watching all these videos and everything I felt like I was going to start falling down a rabbit hole too. But keyboards are expensive, and every time I type on mine I get more satisfaction out if it than I’ve ever gotten from a keyboard in my life. Glad to have learned what I need from they keyboard community, but, once you’ve got your setup, why keep dumping money into it?
Honestly, I have hope that this is how the world gets better. All these companies who’ve been making a mess of everything on reputations they’ve long outlived have gotten too comfortable and too bold. A few Ubisofts and Twitters will be good practice for the bigger ones.
Maybe we’ll even figure out that money only tells us where we go if we let it.
I love GIMP’s UI. It’s clean, it’s to the point, and it’s stayed basically the same for ages!
Ultimately I agree. Open source software is the only software that’s sustainable and that benefits humanity in general more than it benefits some company somewhere. I choose open source software basically whenever I can. I hope that some day in the future that’ll extend into operating systems for personal computing and game servers, but unfortunately that’s not the case at the moment for my use cases.
I think the issue is that while Linux is capable of a lot when you can take full advantage of it, each task requires way more knowledge or a good tutorial and no complications.
For me, I love working with Linux and have been doing it on and off for decades, but it doesn’t tend to remain my daily because of the extra steps and limitations.
I think if I had a more full working knowledge of Linux and I knew Python or had a stronger grasp of other languages, I’d be a lot more able to fill those gaps. But without that, it there are all these barriers to productivity that aren’t there otherwise. Instead of doing the thing I’m trying to do, i end up spending the night messing around with some depreciated program or struggling with a weird use case and it simply requires way more of my time to get there.
Considering that I have a lot more experience with Linux than the average person and still run into this regularly, I’d say it’s a big barrier to wider adoption.
Honestly the solution is probably more on the end of getting together to make some of these issues less complicated than on the end of expecting everyone to become a well versed Linux enthusiast. With such a high learning curve, unless you’re using it for something it’s particularly good at doing easily, you kind of have to want to get into Linux for its own sake in order to learn enough to make it easier to use. And even then, it’s a struggle sometimes.
The Bad Batch was pretty fantastic, and those first few minutes especially are pretty fucked. With a cast containing Jason Momoa, Keanu Reeves, and a very sneaky Jim Carey, I’m honestly surprised it didn’t get more attention than it did. Maybe it’s the cannibalism.
Basically, the premise is that there’s this big chunk of open desert around a town called Comfort out in the middle of a fenced off area in Texas where they dump criminals. It’s got a very post-apocalyptic vibe. Highly recommended.
How did you add a fifth layer?? I’ve got a Keychron V6. Is there a way to add more layers than the default 4? Does that mean I can go past the default macro limit? Or function keys?
I’m doing it with Calckey myself, but Communities basically act like users. You can search and follow them. You’ll get to see posts in that community in your feed, and you can make top-level comments and reply to direct replies on your own comments, but if you want to see comments that aren’t responding to you you’ll have to switch over to Lemmy.
I basically just browse my own Calckey front page now and then when I see a Lemmy thread that looks interesting I open it in Lemm.ee or Blahaj.zone.
On Calckey you just search for @NAME@INSTANCE, whether the name is a community or an individual you’ll be able to follow them!
Edit: I made a little VIA macro, so now I’ve got a hotkey that grabs the link in my current clipboard and searches it in lemm.ee. Made it a lot easier!

Even beyond subscribing to other communities that are also on a Lemmy instance, you can throw a wider net and use some form of fediverse software to interact with different kinds of instances.
I think Lemmy software may be a little more limited in this, as I haven’t had much luck subscribing to Mastodon users on my Lemmy accounts, but I can subscribe to Lemmy accounts on Mastodon and Calckey. I haven’t really done much with it on Mastodon, but on Calckey I can see Lemmy posts from communities I’m subscribed to in my feed, and I can make a top-level reply to the post but I can’t read or reply to the comments (unless they’re replies to mine) without going to some version of Lemmy to view the rest of the post.
Still, that makes it pretty convenient to scroll through my own Calckey as well as Lemmy, Mastodon, Kbin, Pixelfed, and seemingly basically whatever else I could want. Sure, sometimes I have to switch sites to engage with the content, but that’s as simple as clicking a link or at worst navigating to the post again on the site. With the pace of most instances, that’s not hard to do
It’s also not oversaturated, so people will actually see and interact with what you’re posting, and yet if you cast a wide enough net you can get continuous content to read if you really want to.
I guess the point is, the more you take it into your own hands the more it can do for you.
It’s a separate type of Fediverse instance based on Misskey. Connectivity with Lemmy seems, uh… dicey… but somewhat functional!
How did you get Lemmy to ‘boost this’? This is showing up in my Calckeys, but not the new post I just made. I’m so confused!
We spent the five years training the model. Manually. With Captcha data.
Now we’re teaching it not to run traffic signals, hit motorcycles or busses, or try to drive up stairs.
