I’ve unsubscribed from all the politics communities. The app the I use (Sync) has content filters so you can filter out post titles that contain the names of certain individuals that I don’t want to hear about

Yes SearXNG is awesome. You can even self host your own instance for added security/privacy. I have my own instance running on a free tier Oracle cloud 1core/1GB ram and it works great.

The Dreamcast version of Ep1 Racer has better graphics, cutscenes, and hacks to get 60fps. Redream works on Linux

I have a brother b&w laser printer with scanner (hl-l2390dw) that I got after years of grief from an awful canon inkjet that would clog after 2 weeks of no use. Went through so many ink cartridges on that thing.

I love the brother now. It can sit around for weeks and when I do occasionally need to print something it comes out great. Sure I do miss printing color but I can always send a print job over to Walgreen or Staples and they’ll have it printed out in an hour with better quality than a consumer inkjet printer can put out

Mine works with Linux so no issues there

And certainly Google isn’t going to take a cut of that as a processing fee…right?

I’ve tried a couple different KDE distros and settled on Fedora 40 KDE spin. It seems to be the most complete KDE experience without all of the Canonical/snap bloat. It works great on my Thinkpad. Also runs decent on my gaming desktop using the latest Nvidia beta driver - I used to get stutters and artifacts in games/steam/plex and now with the beta driver those apps run fine

Download another launcher, set it as default home, and forget about google’s excessive ads. Depending on your model, you may need to run an ADB command. You may need to get a remote remapper app to remap the home button to open the launcher

I am using this one for my android tv https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spocky.projengmenu

And flauncher for my chromecast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.efesser.flauncher

You have to keep on the computer that is running jellyfin/plex server. Then as long as the server is running and everything is set up, you can access all of your own songs and playlists from the android app.

There are a ton of tutorials out there for setting up jellyfin or plex.

Download mp3 or flac from artists you like. Install jellyfin or plex on an old PC, laptop, or raspberry pi and store the music there. Install finamp or plexamp on your phone. And you got your own personal spotify that you can access from anywhere

600 down / 20 up for $95 in western PA. My area only has one option, Comcast. So they can basically make the price whatever that want. The other side of town also has FiOS and of course the same Comcast plan is $60 there. I hate it so much

I really like this fork of newpipe. It has sponsorblock and YouTube dislike built in

I hope they don’t roll this out to Tmobile Prepaid. I don’t really trust Tmobile with my bank account information.

Paying over $100 each month on cell plans is crazy. If all you use is talk, text, and some data, Connect by Tmobile Prepaid has $15 plan with 3.5GB per month

Yes, I just made the switch to a closer instance yesterday. So much faster. I was on lemmy.world for the past few weeks but then I realized the server is hosted in Europe and I was getting 144ms ping from US east coast. This new instance I’m on, I’m getting 22ms ping.

You can test latency yourself from cmd by typing “ping lemmy.world” for example
