Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Lemmy now (partially) federates with Bluesky via Bridgyfed
111·1 month agoImpressive. Always nice to see more interoperability.
Also, I fail to see how second link has anything to do with Bluesky federation.
Oh, I see, that specific reply is from Bridgyfed.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Should there be something that installs Linux to disk directly from Windows?
5·1 month agoYes, and so is a virtual machine. I’m thinking install Linux to disk so that it can then run directly on hardware.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Should there be something that installs Linux to disk directly from Windows?
51·1 month agoYes, this is something that should be taken into account when designing this software.
Set dual-boot as a default / design UI in a way that offers dual-boot as a preferred option.
And many other technical issues will probably appear that will have to be figured out.
But I think that at least even thinking about this is a good start.
Also, this reminds me of 2013, when people accidentally nuked their Windows installs with Linux because they wanted to get the Tux in Team Fortress 2 (Valve gave it to people who played Linux version of TF2).
and this year Android also surpasses Ubuntu for personal use (29% vs. 28%).
lol why bother with same OS category when you can just compare across whichever fields you want

Linux@lemmy.ml•Can kids under 10 be possibly taught coding, without even mentioning the word syntax to them ??
1·3 months agoI’m sure that there are games (either video games or IRL physical games) designed for this. Some simple “here are some possible instructions, use them to achieve some goal” thing.
Something like described here:
https://wiredme.com/blog/active-coding-games-for-kids/
But I am interested in knowing more examples of such games. Is there any Wikipedia article for this category of games? Is there any list with more of them described?

Linux@lemmy.ml•What problems does Linux have to overcome to get more users
71·6 months agololwat. can you explain the reasoning in your second paragraph?
Also I’m not sure that your definition of Enshittification is correct.
USB 2, therefore no external monitor.
If they make 6+ (like there was 3+) with USB 3, then I will consider getting it.

Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•How to browse websites in 2025: 13 simple steps
18·7 months agothere was this satirical “web browsing simulator 2025” or something like that where you had to do all those things.
but I don’t remember the exact name and can’t find it with a search engine. Maybe someone else knows what I am talking about.

Android@lemdro.id•Poll: Which abandoned Android phone features do you miss the most?English
32·7 months agoMy first Android phone was Motorola Dext, second one was HTC Desire Z, which I held on to for a long time. By the time I had to replace it, there were no slide-out keyboard phones any more.
Then some time later F(x)tek X1 Pro was released. Looked like a perfect phone for me, but was too expensive, so I did not get it. But now that it’s time is over as well, I look at the reviews and see that I did not miss much.
So now I am sadly on a glassy rectangle like everyone else, but I do carry a collapsable bluetooth keyboard around with me sometimes, so that I can still type some longer text in a proper way.Also, I solved my no-headphone-jack issue by getting USB-C headphones. And there are USB-C to 3.5 jack adapters if you need to connect existing headphones or other equipment. So I don’t really get how this “I miss a hole” is everywhere and lasts for so long.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What OS should I use for self-hosting that doesn't require extensive terminal knowledge?English
10·10 months agoYUNOHost iso is basically just Debian, but the one-click-install for various self-hosted things is it’s primary purpose. All done through web interface.
cool idea
concept somewhat reminds me of OpenDesk
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opendesk
Which I know about because it uses the same name as https://opendesk.eu/en/ , which I am actually interested in.

It will have unlocked bootloader and quite standard SoC, so you will be able to install PostmarketOS or any other mobile Linux on it.
But in that case you might as well buy FairPhone 5 right now and do the same to it.
