I’ve used dropbear in the past and it always feels a little janky, but it works well.

MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•I just found out my fiancee wants to switch to linux, lets start a distro war, what should be her first? + other questions31·4 days agoI would suggest whatever you pick, it should be a similar base to what you run or are most familiar with.
If you run something Debian based, you should recommend something Debian based. Fedora, Arch, etc.
The same is also true for desktop environments, if you use KDE, recommend KDE. If you run something not necessarily beginner friendly, recommend what you’re familiar with.
At some point you’re going to be asked questions, so the more familiar you are, the better for both of you.
Wouldn’t that depend on what you’re watching?
You can watch reality TV on YouTube, or traditional television.
You can watch educational content and documentaries on YouTube, or traditional television.
Hell you can watch some traditional TV shows on YouTube or traditional television.
YouTube is just a platform for hosting content. Now they may have a “better” algorithm compared to traditional television, but that doesn’t really change much.
MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Talk about choosing "a community", not "a server"0·11 days agoExcept you have to interact with other users on your server
Says who? I don’t know the server of anyone I’m interacting with. I think “gateway” would be a better choice, but that isn’t any less confusing.
Computers were either Windows or Mac, they couldn’t be anything else, that was a fact. Then I saw someone using Linux and had so many questions. How? I was given a Knoppix live CD, went home, and booted my home PC into Knoppix and it changed my perception of computers.
I didn’t change over immediately but eventually Ubuntu was handing out install CDs and YouTube was full of wobbly windows and desktop cubes. It wasn’t useful but it looked cool.
I still needed Windows for gaming, but for day to day it was so much easier to use Linux.
Eventually my gaming was exclusively on the Switch and then was I was looking to play certain PC games the Steam Deck was available, so I bought that.
I think Windows 8 was the last one I used and I’ve never had any desire to go back. Linux is just easier.
Due to this post I just found mine.
For the longest time I’ve been trying to find a video that featured someone copying a VHS recording over and over again, each time loosing a little bit of quality.
The specific video featured a catchy song, but I couldn’t remember the song or any of the words. I’ve found a few different videos over the years but every time I found a video the song was wrong.
Every few years it’s jumped into my head and I’ve gone off looking for it, but could never quite figure it out.
This time I either put in just the right terms or the magic algorithm has moved it around,
Light travels faster than sound, duh.
But us in the middle who pretend we’re smart
The trick you’ll learn is that everyone is just pretending. The more your learn the more you realize you don’t know.
MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Its the you get to pick a superpower one. With a twist.0·1 month agoI think to even it out hovering would have to be free, or maybe a very slow descent. I don’t want people to be able to rest in the air, specifically so they can’t cross oceans. I guess flying at 4 mph across an ocean is already a hard/long enough task.
MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Its the you get to pick a superpower one. With a twist.0·1 month agoLet’s try flying.
You can fly, but you still have to put in the same amount of effort as if you couldn’t fly.
For example if you want to fly over a house it would be at the same speed as climbing a ladder and taking an equal amount of time.
Or if you wanted to fly a mile away it would be the same as running or walking a mile. Also if you want to carry someone or something, how fast could you move while doing it? Same as on the ground or in the air.
Basically you still get the convenience of flying, but you have to put in all the work.
MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which TV brand is the most reliable in your experience?0·1 month agoI don’t think it has any apps by default, or if it did I removed them. I just plugged in an Android TV and that seems to be working just fine.
But the TV itself isn’t connected to the Internet and it doesn’t bug me to connect and the default is just a nice background image without pestering me.
MimicJar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which TV brand is the most reliable in your experience?0·1 month agoI bought an LG in 2014 and it lasted ~10 years before the backlight died. I bought a new LG that has a bunch of smart features but I’ve never connected it to the Internet, and it’s largely stayed out of my way and not been annoying.
So I guess LG has been good for me.
Not that I’m against new communities, any reason you made a new community instead of joining !dcstudios@lemmy.world ?
We’ll just deflect it with another ball of garbage.

You don’t even need to be a Pokemon to do it. I’ve been succeeding at this move for years.

It’s a great character moment for the Weasley matriarch.
who needs the web?
Generative AI that’s who. For it to spit out information, it needs information. The argument may be that it is better at collecting all that information in one place and returning an answer, although we know it hallucinates responses. But to even begin a response it needs data, it needs the web.
Proof? That video response sounds like AI.
Proof? That video sounds fake. Maybe this is all a ruse by the girlfriend to slander Jake Paul.
I don’t actually believe that, but this article is written based on videos uploaded to TikTok, there is no proof any of the events described took place.
Things are about to get much worse.
