Technology@beehaw.org•Analysis | Printer ink is a scam. Here’s how to spend less.English
15·3 years agoI love my mono laser printer. It’s an older Canon I got from a retired lawyer, so it has probably printed a million pages already for all I know. Haven’t had to futz with it since I popped in a new toner cartridge that was ~$40. If I need to print color, I go to the local copy store, but that’s rare anyways. Been recommending the same for all my friends and family.
I definitely can’t speak about general consensus, but that’s what stopped me using it.
I might regret asking this, but…
why???
No AI please - it just dilutes and lowers the overall quality of the community. I’d much rather a handful of genuine posts/comments from real people than a flood of hallucinations that range from being utter gibberish to making you question your own sanity.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Hey, I just got my Pixelfed instance up and running and I was able to post from it to !pics@lemmy.world. Hurray!English
2·3 years agoGenuine question - what’s the advantage of Pixelfed over Lemmy? Is it just more photo-oriented in some way? Or just different strokes for different folks?
Great to see more federation though!

Jerboa@lemmy.ml•Are we doing anything to prevent becoming Voat?English
10·3 years agoSounds like you might just want to look into a more curated home server.
I maintain my own lemmy server, so I get to select which communities show up in my feed and which don’t, and since it’s my own server, I can filter and curate my feed for myself (which so far has not been much work at all).
I can confidently say that I haven’t had any racist or other undesirable memes flooding my home page.

Linux@lemmy.world•Ubuntu Plans to Ditch its 'Minimal' Install OptionEnglish
6·3 years agoRealistically, if I’m using a minimal install, I probably want Debian for the stability anyways. It’s still too bad though, always nice to have options.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•linux/self host newbies, now is a good time to get you a cheap serverEnglish
2·3 years agoEven still, you can get a small VPS and connect a VPN between it and your LAN, using it as a gateway with a static IP.
Gotta watch out for bandwidth limitations and data caps on small VPS like that though.

Android@lemmy.world•Pls Help me decide on the most cost effective phone when my biggest deciding factor is a nice camera but I'm not paying $800 for a dang phoneEnglish
51·3 years agoThe Pixel ‘a’ line of phones has always been my go to - able to be unlocked/rooted easily, decent cameras, reasonably priced (7a starts $500 at the moment, and 6a is $350 new), although I have heard that the 6a and 7a using Google’s processors can really kill your battery life.
I’m writing this from a 5a that I have been quite happy with myself, but it’s getting a bit older now, so you might now want to go that many generations back.
I’m looking out for the new 8a, might be my next phone, not sure yet.

Good for them though!

Deep Rock Galactic@lemmy.world•Shoutout to the time the squad had to put together an entire cheese fortress to beat the Caretaker
0·3 years agoDoes that even work? Don’t most of the caretaker’s attacks still find you otherwise?
I’m lazy, so I literally just use a Mason jar and a steel filter. Something like this.
It’s probably not the most efficient, but it gets me my caffeine in the morning and tastes good to me!




Didn’t believe them then, don’t believe them now.
RIP Nova.
