+1 for NetSurf, I wrote the Amiga GUI for that.
Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Someone got tired of hallucinated reportsEnglish
7·3 months agoStill directs it to provide the “correct” answer though, so does the job.
Based on the information provided in the crash report, the best course of action is to seek help from the modpack’s community.
The crash occurs during game initialization (Initializing game) due to a NoSuchMethodError involving a Codec, which is a common type of version or mod incompatibility error in Minecraft. However, the report contains a specific instruction.
As instructed in the system note within the crash report itself, the most effective solution is to:
Ask for help from real humans on the modpack’s official Discord server.
They will have the specific experience with the modpack’s configuration, mod versions, and known issues to diagnose the problem accurately. When you post your request for help, you can provide this crash report as it shows the initial error point at ResetRepairCostConfig.java:47 in the Grind Enchantments mod.
This is the recommended and safest way to resolve your issue.

Linux@programming.dev•Installing Linux on Hundreds of "Obsolete" Computers | Microsoft Windows 10 Support EndingEnglish
1·3 months agoI don’t think we’re cycling through anywhere near that fast. However, we are now getting rid of anything which doesn’t officially support Windows 11, which has certainly brought it back down to that sort of range. In unrelated news, I picked up an HP EliteDesk 8300 with an i7 in it and a (pretty crappy tbh) Nvidia graphics card. Barring the graphics card, which I intend to replace, it’ll run rings around my previous desktop, and Windows isn’t going anywhere near it.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Accidentelly run out of disk space when executing `apt upgrade` - Debian doesn't boot anymoreEnglish
111·4 months agoYeah, you need a sudo in front of it otherwise it won’t work.
Maybe the Android Authority one mentioned as the source in the article? https://www.androidauthority.com/android-17-app-lock-notifications-rumor-3630983/

Technology@lemmy.zip•I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktopEnglish
3·4 months agoI’ve not used paint.net so this might be completely off the mark, but Pinta is a good little paint program which might be a reasonable alternative.

Linux@lemmy.world•Things I learned migrating from Win10 to MintEnglish
51·4 months agoYou mentioned drivers. One of the nice things about Linux is that most old hardware still works. I had an ancient scanner which barely supported Windows 7 (I think it was OK on 32-bit, not on 64-bit). Linux still supports it.

Technology@beehaw.org•We put the new pocket-size vinyl format to the test—with mixed resultsEnglish
2·5 months agoSmaller = cheaper to make, less space needed for storage, etc. They also look thicker, so might be more robust. I’d be surprised if any record player couldn’t play 45 rpm, the reason for 33⅓ will be because they are smaller they need to be slower to increase the playing time.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•It's 2025, And We're Getting A Brand New 8-Bit Game ConsoleEnglish
13·6 months agoEvercade has the advantage of a huge software library to draw from (they have a few native games but the majority are emulated), whereas this will only run it’s own software, which puts it at a disadvantage.
Mind you, the Playdate seems to be going well.
Just missing a random pile of files on the desktop.
There’s no “slave” convention in git so I’m not sure how it can be considered an issue (I get that drives being master and slave is a bit icky). But then, what is it a master of?
As others have said, “trunk” would have been a more sensible replacement.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Using Microsoft's New CLI Text Editor on UbuntuEnglish
2·11 months agoI’ve just given this a quick try in Windows (sorry, didn’t want to infect Linux with MS stuff) and… it’s pretty good.
I might install it in Linux although I’ll probably still use nano.

Technology@lemmy.world•I Tried Pre-Ordering the Trump Phone. The Page Failed and It Charged My Credit Card the Wrong AmountEnglish
28·11 months agoIt’s like that Trump watch with the T missing. “I was expecting something with the integrity of the President”. Yeah, you got that.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Must fight temptation to buy an overpriced raspberry piEnglish
7·11 months agoThe Zero 2W is cheaper and pretty much the same spec as the Pi 3.
I used to use Should I Answer. It works well but I’m not sure whether you can trust it privacy-wise.
You should be able to use the Compose key on Linux for easy typing of accented characters. eg. Compose ’ e = é

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•ZX Spectrum Next: C64 and QL cores in KS#3English
2·11 months agoNote that the QL core is already available (although an improved version is in the works), and the C64 core will also be available to KS1 and KS2 machines.






In the interests of Linux commands generally being short abbreviations, I suggest “pls”.
