A dakimakura, AKA a body pillow. Needs an anime character on it, obviously.

That's my main problem with Signal. They refuse to add features because they can't be perfect. I damaged my old phone beyond it being usable and got a new one. Now it's impossible for me to get my conversation history, because the only way to keep it is to do a backup in the app and then manually move the backup file, then restore it on your new phone. Oh, but you can't backup and then restore to your laptop. That would be crazy talk. It's impossible to get your conversation history to your laptop.

So if I don't have a camera on my laptop, I'm good?

Just this weekend I installed Manjaro after having tons and tons of issues with SUSE since the Plasma 6 upgrade. I have a laptop with AMD integrated graphics, which Plasma is running on, so your issues may not apply to me. But if I run any apps on the Nvidia GPU in full screen, I do get the flickering issue.

My biggest issue I have is that no matter what distro I use, as soon as I install the proprietary Nvidia driver, my system fails to boot like 20% of the time. It just freezes during boot with no error messages or warnings that I can find. But once it boots, it works.

I'm not sure how to run Plasma on my dedicated GPU so I can see if I have the same issues you have. But with my current setup, it works.

Phones are often used for small amounts of time as people pick them up to reply to a message, browse the web for a bit or watch a video.

Haha.... Yeah..... Me too.... I definitely don't just have it in my hand while I look at it for 12 hours a day. Nope, not me.

In my experience, when it comes to debating the validity of religion, people tend to get far more emotional than other topics. People who are normally level-headed and quite logical tend to completely lose their ability to think rationally. And I mean both the people who argue for religion and against it.

I guess I'm a dummy, because I never even thought about this. Maybe I got lucky, but when I did restore from a backup, I didn't have any issues. My containerized services came right back up like nothing was wrong. Though that may have been right before I successfully hosted my own (now defunct) Lemmy instance. I can't remember, but I think I only had sqlite databases in my services at the time.

Also, The Presidents of the United States of America.

The song "More Bad Times" came on my Spotify radio playlist a few years back. I had never heard the song before. I was dying of laughter. I was not at all prepared for a song that silly.

I live in the US and I have never tipped housekeeping, nor have I ever heard of someone doing it.

I imagine people who care about this sort of thing are more likely to report it. And people who care about this sort of thing are also more likely to be early adopters and go through the effort of switching to Wayland.

The way to get a more random sample is not something I want (built-in, automatic telemetry by default). So I'm fine with having skewed data for something like this.

 

Hi all. Due to the news of the illegal images being hosted on lemmy, I shut down my instance. I read some comments from people stating that they were able to selfhost lemmy without pictrs, they just can't upload or cache photos. I think this is what I am interested in doing at this time.

I tried commenting out the pictrs section of my docker-compose.yml and removed the "depends on pictrs" sections. However, I get the error message in the attached screenshot when I go to my page.

Does anyone have any info on how to selfhost lemmy with image hosting completely disabled?
