Lemmy is making me depressed
Most people will probably disagree and say that I shouldn't be here if I don't like it, but yeah, like the title said. I switched over from Reddit for various reasons, and at first it was nice, but now it's making me depressed just casually browsing Lemmy. Everything here is so drab and negative, sometimes even downright hateful. Everything sucks, here's a list of companies you should never use, here's people that do horrible things, here's a bunch of complaints about stuff. This is why the world sucks, this is why your favourite thing is actually stupid, this is why you shouldn't enjoy xyz anymore.
At least half of the content on Lemmy is about American politics or how they affect the rest of the world, even on meme and shitpost subs you can't escape from the constant barrage of politically charged content. And when it's not American politics it's American lifestyle, like I get that america dominates the internet but I sincerely do not give a shit about your egg prices or your celeb
Yup as soon as I saw gen Z based I knew. 5-10 years ago this would have been the opposite, it's always the generation of new adults that thinks they're hip and cool while looking down on the "kids". When I was younger we (millennials) all thought we were the coolest and made fun of gen Z for being cringe. Now gen Z thinks they're cool but soon enough they'll be old and lame too and gen Alpha will have the spotlight.
Just wait till a kid hits you with "sir" for the first time and then looks at you weird when you insist you're not that old.
It's not exactly the same, but has similar "colony builder" vibes: Prison architect
The kind of idiot that boasts about "system tweaks" and "audiophile headphones".
Sweet, then I could finally play oblivion instead of giving up after the 34th crash
That's a great point about the IRS. Where I'm from we also make a lot of derogatory jokes about our equivalent of the IRS, but it really is a cornerstone of any civilized country. No one likes getting taxed, but everyone complains about how nothing's getting fixed, and how the government should fund this and that. Without taxes we might as well pack it in, so it makes sense that the 'local tax collection agency' should be one of the better funded ones.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is thanks for changing my mind
This implies that trolls will someday go extinct, as the only way to create new trolls is for two existing ones to have children.

I started out with a laptop and it worked fine, but I always wondered, wouldn't the energy consumption be much higher? Even with the screen off, a laptop isn't made to run 24/7, right?
Thank you! I was also very confused how all these privacy-conscious people warned against big corporations, and then starting using a product.... By a big corporation. Just because they say they're privacy conscious and nice and safe and whatever doesn't mean it's true. I mean, they might be substantially better, but there's no proof of that. Every company always makes promises, at first. I guess people really like to believe in an underdog.
It's like if someone warned you against eating sweets because they're unhealthy, but then pulls out their own bag of sweets saying "oh no, these sweets are fine because the company that makes them promised they're healthy".
Aw man, I was just about to ask how that works because it sounds super convenient and I'd never heard of it.
Lol you people are so edgy, don't worry you're very cool with your stories of rejecting menus and being a dick to waiters who have no say in the matter.
No wonder COVID had no trouble spreading if everyone is so insistent on holding soggy stained menus in their hands. I love digital menus, don't need to touch anything, there's enough for everyone, why the need to always be a contrarian?
Now go ahead and downvote me, my body account is ready
Well, it's also interesting for non native speakers who never thought about it, or just didn't make the connection. I always assumed that was the reason for the term, but it's nice to have confirmation.
Why? What's so special about aviation that it benefits from imperial units?
I pity the five year old who has to read this.
I'm a grown up though so thank you for the explanation.
Always wondered why anyone would rather talk to a person than take their time, have a nice overview of the menu, and pay in advance. I guess they are gross though.
There are doxxing websites? Like purpose-made? Isn't that illegal? Article doesn't mention the name, but says it has been used before. Wouldn't it just get deleted after the first time?
Then why not train an AI on the entirety of Wikipedia? I know it's not all correct, but that should ensure most of the information is decently accurate. Would make for a great tool if it allowed to get the same info but explained in a more casual manner.
Lmao are you also mad when players in sea of thieves sink your ship? Or when people in GTA online shoot you? If you don't like that kind of gameplay don't play the game
How to use a custom domain with Tailscale on a Synology NAS?
I've spent too many hours googling this stuff without a solution in sight that I'm able to understand.
I am moderately new to selfhosting, especially the networking aspect. To put it simply, all I want is to be able to access my services through Tailscale by using subdomain.mydomain.com.
I have gotten so far to point my domain to my Tailscale IP (using Cloudflare's DNS), so that I don't have to copy paste the Tailscale IP, but that means I still have to type in the ports to the services. Between the posts saying Tailscale can handle this, to the ones saying Synology can do it, and the remaining posts saying to use a reverse proxy (and the ones saying reverse proxy are a bad idea because of Synology stuff) I am now very lost. The terminology is exhausting and everyone is already so knowledgeable that they skip the basic steps and go straight to complex, short answers.
I'd like to keep using Tailscale, as I don't want to deal with security issues and SSL certificates and all that, and
Help with music library setup
I am at my wits end with this and kindly ask for assistance.
I cannot for the life of me decide on how to set up my music library for the foreseeable future:
- I started out having my library on my local pc, managed by MediaMonkey
- As I bought a NAS, I moved my library to it and used Navidrome to stream it to an android app (Synfonium)
- This meant that I'd lose the MediaMonkey management, but I thought for now I'd just manually transfer new songs/playlists over to the NAS when needed
- As I started streaming with Navidrome, I noticed that the speeds were really bad and music often buffered (no idea why, Jellyfin works fine), so I cached all the songs offline
- This made me think that I don't even need Navidrome since at that point I could just copy the music files to my phone if they're gonna be offline anyway, but then I don't have a backup on the NAS
And now I'm kinda lost, unsure what the best way to handle this is. I'd like to keep MediaMonkey in the flow for library and playl
If someone pleads not guilty in court and is then found guilty of the crime anyway, does perjury get added to the list of crimes as well?
And if so, would they get more prison time / a larger fine?
Wie wollen Fahrradfahrer respektiert werden wenn sie selber die Gesetze nicht respektieren?
Ich gehe stark davon aus das ich in dieser Community dafür kein positive Reaktion kriegen werde, aber egal.
Wenn ich hier die ganzen Posts und Beschwerden lese werde ich immer ein bisschen verärgert, da konstant auf andere Verkehrsteilnehmer geschissen wird, ohne jemals zu adressieren wie die Mehrheit der Fahrradfahrer sich selber als Verkehrsteilnehmer verhält. Ich fahre sowohl Auto als Fahrrad regelmäßig, und es ist keine Übertreibung wenn ich behaupte das nicht mal 20 Prozent der Fahrradfahrer auf der Strasse sich ordentlich an die Regeln halten. Man fährt über rot, schlängelt sich gefährlich durch Stau, wechselt konstant vom Bürgersteig auf die Strasse so wie es gerade passt, und scheint einfach grundsätzlich das Motto zu haben "ich halte mich an die Gesetze, ausser wenn es gerade doof ist". Sogar wenn ich mit Freunden Fahrrad fahre, regen die sich immer darüber auf das ich bei rot tatsächlich warte weil es ja "eh egal ist".
Vieles muss noch getan werden um Städte besser für Fahr
