I use an iPhone simply because I refuse to use google services any longer, not because I’m delusional about apple caring about privacy.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you introduce the Fediverse to other people?
6·2 months agoI use email as an analogy. Most non-tech people are familiar with the idea of there being different email providers so I use that concept to describe the fediverse.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Loud and powerful sneezers, have you figured out a way to tame your sneezes?
1·1 year agoEVERYONE STOP TRYING TO HOLD IT IN!!! The scream is because you’re using your vocal cords. Stop using them when you sneeze.
For example: -Say “ahhhhh” like a doctor is checking your throat. You’re using your vocal chords while exhaling
-Okay now just exhale. Now you’re NOT using your vocal cords.
That is the difference between using your vocal cords and not using them. You just have to not use your vocal cords when you sneeze to stop yelling.

12·1 year agoI’m pretty happy with Nebula. I tried it back when it was still bundled with curiosity stream but now I just subscribe to nebula.
It obviously isn’t anywhere near a full YouTube replacement, but it’s pretty good.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for?
1·2 years agoHow about ShareX? I’ve been using that as a SnagIt alternative for a few years, but I was never a heavy SnagIt user though.
Hospital SysAdmin here.
Our infrastructure is roughly 95% windows and 5% Linux or Unix. Simply put: the requirements of the software/systems that the hospital requires to function properly is what dictates the OS.
We have a couple of major systems running on a handful of AIX Unix boxes and several dozen other systems that run RHEL, Cent, and Ubuntu. Not including hypervisors, the rest of our infrastructure is windows based and ALL of our workstations are windows.
Every app is unique, and annoyingly there is no consistency within all of a single companies applications. For example, I’m working on a GE Carescape upgrade which uses CentOS 7 but GE Time and Attendance uses Windows Server.



I started self hosting when I had only 100Mbps down/10Mbps up. For about 5 years years I told my friends and family that I didn’t have fast upload speeds so if several people were streaming at the same time there could be issues. Beggers cant be choosers, so they got what they got. That being said, I always tried to get smaller files so that less bandwidth was needed and that helped a lot
I lived alone so 100Mbps down/10Mbps up was plenty for me and I wasn’t going to upgrade to a faster plan. I also worked from home with those speeds without any issues and I would have continued with that internet plan if I still lived there. My new place includes 1.2Gb down/up so bandwidth isn’t the bottleneck for me any longer.
