I have a second monitor at the upper left of my primary one

Would you be buried alive for 48hr for a million dollars?

You are buried in a coffin 6ft deep, with no light or cell phone. There is only a small tube connected to the coffin from outside that allows you to breathe (edit: you can breathe with no difficulty). After 48 hours, you are dug up and given 1 million dollars. Do you do it?...

I started doing that a few years ago. It’s now part of my habits.

I always look for joke-named instances for fediverse platforms. Guess what I landed on for Lemmy.

I setup my own matrix instance and ran a few bridges on it, so I don’t need WhatsApp thanks

You can set up bridges to link to your other messengers. Then you will only need Matrix to be able to reply to everyone.

You login to your account with the bridge, so the bridge can pretend to be you.

Matrix is FOSS, Synapse (Matrix server) is FOSS, bridges are FOSS. The only thing stopping most people is a server that can run 24/7

My dad still believes the entire Y2K problem was a scam. How do I convince him?

This appeals to Hongkongers only, but I miss 頭條新聞 (News Headlines) (I made up this translation)

Despite its name, this was a sarcastic show aired on RTHK, an official government channel. It talks about a lot of events, poor decisions and wrong-doings of the government in a funny way. Unfortunately it was shut down in 2020, by the government.

Our democracy and freedom have been declining since then.

Here’s a playlist of them archived

Is there a proper way to use several DE's on one distro or is it not advised?

I have read many conflicting things, like always. Just wondering if there’s a safe way to use several DE’s on one distro without messing up my damn computer lol I’ve tried it several times and it always messed things up. I’m currently brand new to fedora workstation 38 too btw. Thanks alot

My Endeavour OS has Plasma, GNOME, Xfce, bspwm and Hyprland on it. I haven’t really had any problem with them.

NorthWestWind,
@NorthWestWind@iusearchlinux.fyi avatar

You can always install them from Arch or AUR. I didn’t just merge all the Endeavour images into one to install them.

My website, which might be the most impractical informative website in history.

The idea started 3 years ago. I’m still irregularly updating it. Every time I see it I feel proud of myself.

You should’ve chained comments under your own without anyone replying

Hold your key’s metal part and touch some other metal that is earthed to discharge yourself.

By holding the key, you provide a way bigger surface area for transferring the charge, so it won’t hurt you.

I also saved that Firefox add-ons post! It has told me a lot of very useful add-ons.

I can setup bridges, so I can communicate with any other messaging systems (whatsapp, discord) within matrix

Woomy

The first game I ever played was Mario Kart DS. I have been a Mario fan ever since.

What would be the odd addition to your dream house?

Somehow you’ve gotten your dream home. The cabin in the mountains, penthouse downtown, castle nestled deep in the woods, nuclear bunker in the hills, or whatever. Whats the bit you’d add that might raise a brow from others? The fireman’s pole? The slide? The moat? The hidden room behind a bookshelf where you keep your...

Asians sometimes work a bit too hard.

I’m a Hongkonger, and we have an internal joke within the entirety of Hong Kong which is “Hongkongers love working”
