Is it really just ageing/ getting older? How is this supposed to work? How is everyone else doing this? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

who else can I ask?

Everyone has already answered that for you. You ask another doctor. Take care.

Not sure why so many people are proud to have beaten their gut into submission with years of abuse.

Remember that music trend of DJs taking over popular music from 10 years ago? in c/casualconversation@lemm.ee

It was a cash grab.

I swear EVERYONE from 2011 to early 2016 that was at the top of the charts was a DJ featuring a famous artist like Rihanna, Ellie Goulding, Justin Bieber, etc... Dunno what kind of perfect storm happened for that trend to form but I want it back, kind of.

Perfect storm? What? That was manufactured garbage. By design.

The rise of the DJs was one saddest, least creative pop charts in music history.

You don’t need to ask strangers on the internet about your health. The only thing you need to do is learn how to get a second opinion from another doctor.

Harris calls out Trump's “brazen flip-flop” on Florida recreational marijuana in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] braindefragger@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

But we aren’t talking about “people”, we are specifically talking about Trump. Trump didn’t “evolve”, he’s a swindler who will say whatever to whoever when it benefits him.

So let’s not take normal people finding out more info on a topic and pretend like that has anything to do with nonsense he happened to say one day or another.

If I have an account on Mastodon.Social, and another account on PieFed.Social are they technically on the same instance, since they're both on .Social? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] braindefragger@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Mastodon.social is the address to that specific Mastodon instance. Take a look at this site for more info.

why not make everything (instance).com?

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by that? Are you suggesting everyone to use a ().com? If so, because they are rarely available and if they are, quite expensive.

Switching back to Windows. For now. (lemmy.world)

The amount of bullshit there is to make things work is... not that bad. When it comes to games, I just can't. Having to reboot just to fix common FPS issues is too much. I've had a bunch of things that require a config change, which then has caused other issues.

The state of Linux Desktop is the best it has ever been and I'll be back the moment Wayland works better. I love Linux, but for now, it's not working out for me... Just needed to vent, thanks for reading.

A continuation rant of

https://lemmy.world/post/18158630

Oh my. The games I usually play work fine under Linux, and now they work equally or worse. The few Unreal games that caused me to break my Linux streak work way better under Windows, but the experience is so much worse. Spectacle screenshots always work, windows one just somehow manages to break itself, there is no fix. Every second boot it advertises Windows 11, even though I'm "ineligble", since I have TPM disabled. No middle click paste. Applications keep going off bounds. PowerTools managed to reset twice now. Which C++ redistributable do I need to run this program? It's not the newest one or the year before that. It's not the one provided by the installer. It's 2013 (in this case only)! WSL mounting is a nightmare if I want it to be read only. AMD drivers refuse to install because windows update is stuck at a "failed" security update. Tried to make a folder? Explorer.exe just crashed! Update went through finally? Just kidding, xbox app was just installed! Do you like to change individual application volume? I knew you didn't! Install EarTrumpet! Oh, Windows store is broken by design! Then the settings. Why are they there if they just redirect to control panel?

What is this shit? I'm actually just going straight back to Linux, Fedora this time because of recommendations. If Wayland on fedora still does weird glitches, I will use x11 and suffer what happens on a 3-monitor setup with one monitor having a higher refresh rate and resolution. Windows is now only for games that won't run under it.

Now... Extra question; Why does every distro need yet another package manager? Yay/pacman I get because it seems to build it. Though I don't understand why, other than AUR. APT is so nice and easy... I hope DNF is the same.
