In my head, I am picturing the Goatse guy popping up in the corner of the screen like the “TOASTY!” guy from Mortal Kombat.

lol, no of course not, unless that changed later. I would have noped right out.

Not all of us. I just read what it said on the main page “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers” and thought that sounded good. I’m sure a lot of people that were new to lemmy figured the instance run by the devs themselves would be a safe bet. There also wasn’t nearly as much drama around .ml back then, but it honestly hasn’t been enough of an issue to make me create an account on a new instance and switch.

Sceptre was more of a TV company in the past, but over the last decade or so have definitely moved more into the monitor business. I have actually owned 5 different Sceptre TVs over the last 20 years, but back in the day it was because they were some of the least expensive LCD televisions on the market.

I also bought a Sceptre “dumb TV” within the last year or so and highly recommend it. I had been recommending it over and over, but recently I found that the model I bought was no longer offered. I hope Sceptre didn’t abandon them.

They probably use the proprietary Face Off ™ technology.

I believe the previous post was talking about Wake on LAN (WoL) and Wake on WLAN (WoWLAN) which are separate things.

Yeah, I’m a little jealous of that cool ass setup. I used to have something like it, though not as nice.

I like that “Name” was on there. You know, in case he forgets.

I bought one of these for my wife and we she has unfortunately had to switch back to her other phone due to some bugs. It seems to fail to be able to make phone calls or maintain bluetooth connections frequently. She has never had an issue receiving calls though. I’m still working on trying to find a solution for her because her old phone is a Pixel 6a which Google just nerfed the battery into oblivion like they did my 4a. I swear they have it out for us.

It was truly wild to meet him briefly at Defcon after years of seeing “FREE KEVIN” and such.

I am also a big fan of the MX518 lineage mice, so I hope someone make a version that has that shape. When Logitech released an updated MX518 several years back I bought a couple of them, so I will be good for years hopefully.

I’m surprised they had to outsource that as they have been producing so much shit for decades.

Honestly, life would be improved if people brought everything on fancy wooden planks. I would replace FedEx and UPS in a heartbeat if my stuff arrived like that instead of being spiked onto the ground like a volleyball.

At this point I have a difficult time trusting any tomatoes I don’t grow myself.

This is highly depressing to see first thing in the morning.

Quod Libet can do all of these things to my knowledge. It is currently my favorite linux music player.

A 33MHz DX 486was great. If you got stuck with a slower SX CPU, things were frequently not so hot.

I’ve had great luck using Intel NUCs as home servers and HTPC boxes. Since those are now gone, I have found that Beelink is the most cost effective replacement when I needed to revamp the setup. My biggest complaint on them is that the cooling fans on them are not super reliable and it is not easy to find compatible replacements. I had to order them direct from China and there are a few wiring incompatible variants. I ended up with one of them being the wrong type and I had to resolder the leads to match the existing broken fan.

I bought one last year and when I need to replace a TV, I will do it again.
