Actual manufacturers of laptops / desktops
  • How would someone schedule a tour? I'm not far from Denver and would LOVE to see how my thelio was made!

  • ProtonVPN on Steam Deck
  • You can download it directly from the software center by going into desktop mode! It runs like it normally would on any desktop, although you either need to enter desktop mode after restarts/power off to ensure its on. Feel free to send a message if you need help!

  • [Plasma 6] How to get virtual desktops to behave like MacOS “Spaces”
  • In the upcoming Cosmic desktop by Pop!_OS, workspaces can be monitor specific, just like MacOS

  • A Blog to Satisfy Your Monthly COSMIC Fix(es)
  • Really exciting to see all the new fixes and developments! The release of Cosmic is one of the most exciting things in store for me this year!

  • DeSantis signs bill banning lab-grown meat
  • Gotta love the party of small government

  • IRS says its number of audits is about to surge. Here's who the agency is targeting.
  • The opposite of dystopian, this seems like a great thing. And this isn't even raising tax rates; just enforcing the laws we already have.

  • My rating of Lemmy
  • Just out of curiosity, why do you all think Lemmy is more positive?

    I wonder if the slightly more difficult step of federating with an instance is keeping some of the more negative people away.

  • The Motherhood Penalty vs. the Fatherhood Bonus
  • One topic that I believe is related is the decision not to have children.

    My wife attempted to get her tubes tied, and every doctor turned her down because she was too young.

    Despite being the same age, the first doctor I spoke to agreed to a vasectomy without Amy pushback.

  • When someone shows appreciation or engages in a friendly way it makes my day. Thanks to you folks that do :)
  • One common complaint I've seen with Reddit is the negativity. I'm really hoping that the freshness of Lemmy allows the opportunity for a more positive environment.

    Maybe the slight difficulty of joining a Lemmy instance will keep more negative folks away, too.

  • Americans Are Open To Cheap Chinese Cars. That’s 'Scary' For The Rest Of The Auto Industry
  • The massive size of vehicles in the U.S. is ridiculous. I think a lot of people would buy smaller, cheaper cars if they were on the market.

  • Who Are Todays Heroes?
  • Teachers. It is such a widely known trope that teachers are overworked and underpaid. So many that want to pursue teaching now enter the market, understanding that they will likely need a second job at some point. Although internet kudos do little to actually address the problem, my respect goes to the teachers.

  • Best wishes for a recovery. Thank you for being such a great human being to your cat.

  • Welcome to the Inaugural books@lemmy.world Bingo for 2024!
  • Very excited for this! I just migrated fully from Reddit and other platforms. I've been hoping to participate in community stuff that excites me, and this does just the trick!

  • LinuxFest Northwest 2024: Meet COSMIC DE
  • One of my favorite things about this project has been the transparency of development, and how it seems that they truly care what the community wants. And mmstick's interaction with the community has been nothing short of first-class.

  • Can someone explain the "don't put all your eggs in one basket" argument to me?
  • It all depends on your risk tolerance and perceived threat model.

    I would recommend that if you do use Proton Pass in conjunction with your email, keep a backup KeePass file stored locally and in a few other places and update routinely.

    The Proton ecosystem definitely doesn't fit everyone's security model, but it is a massive leap compared to what Google and Apple offer.

  • A Federal TikTok Ban is a 'Misguided Detour' from Doing What’s Needed to Protect People’s Privacy and Safeguard National Security
  • In the entirety of my time using the internet, I have heard of the lack of freedom that Chinese citizens face regarding internet access. This has always been held up as indisputable evidence that the CCP is an authoritarian regime, and proof that if the CCP is willing to trample on some freedoms, it's willing to trample on others.

    Just as the U.S. Congress has (somewhat valid) concerns about a foreign entity holding so much sway over such a large platform, it could be stated that these objections are no different from what China claims. If it's wrong for China to censor and ban platforms, its wrong for the U.S. to do so as well.

    Is it concerning how much data is collected by Tik Tok? Yes. But without parroting what's already been said, this bill comes nowhere close to addressing the key issues of data privacy that it claims to. Banning Tik Tok without addressing the egregious data collection of other platforms is nothing short of hypocracy.

  • Regardless of why you have opted not to divorce, this is a tricky situation to be in. It's often so awkward when these taboo topics make an unexpected appearance in casual conversation. It sounds like your current situation works for both of you, and I wish you the best of luck navigating this in the future.

  • Trump hit with $9,000 fine for violating hush money trial gag order
  • I wish that the United States had a proportional ticketing system similar to Finland, where the fine is proportional to income. $9,000 is nothing to someone like Trump.
