What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

I have two Bosch dishwashers and have been very happy with them so far. Avoid Samsung appliances at all costs.

Pass on the fridge. I have the same one and it will freeze the ones in the back if you don't leave a space between the back of the fridge and your drinks. I can only fill it about 2/3 of the way or it doesn't work very well. I've considered adding a fan inside, and I've even powered a USB fan off a battery pack and it made a big difference.

Definitely not from the team working on search on Windows then.

Mozilla Firefox is Working on a Tab Grouping Feature in c/firefox@lemmy.ml

That's because us power users know to turn the telemetry off and also have it blocked on our network.

On mine it is permanently ∞.

[SOLVED] I can't change my /home location, and it's driving me mad in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Here's your issue. Your selinux contexts are bad so you're probably being denied access to your own data. To reset the contexts back to normal you can use the restorecon command:

restorecon -Rv /home/

The -R tells it to go through the specified path recursively, the v tells it to be verbose in the output and show you what it's doing.

Replacement Mighty shell (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 4 months ago by burrito@sh.itjust.works to c/vaporents@lemmy.world

I have an OG mighty from 2017 and accidentally dropped it the other day, causing one of the shell's tabs to snap and leaving a gap in the body between the pieces which slightly exposes the top of one of the batteries. I've been looking for a replacement shell since the rest of the vaporizer is in great shape, and I just replaced the batteries in it about 18 months ago. I did find a seller on Etsy calle ETNAMAKER who makes replacement shells for the Mighty that have been made out of wood. I haven't been able to find anyone selling a plastic replacement case or even a 3d model that I could print out (no I won't use PLA for it). For now I've added a zip tie to keep the case held together and it's working well.

Does anyone have any ideas where I could get a replacement shell for my Mighty so I can get a few more years out of it?

The way this is written out really irks me. in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 23 points 6 months ago

I read that too. I think the 2500 model had the highest rate.

Cisco buying cybersecurity company Splunk for $28B in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 24 points 9 months ago

This so true. I've had some quotes for Splunk over the years and every one I get is so ridiculously expensive that it can't even be considered.

What Lemmy Client(s) Do You Use? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 35 points 9 months ago

Same here. I used the paid version sync for reddit for years and got my money's worth out of it. When the incident happened I switched to infinity and, while annoyed, I definitely felt I got my worth out of it. When ljdawson released sync for lemmy and added the ad-free upgrade I happily purchased it and I have been very satisfied with the app and all the improvements he is continually making. This is all coming from a hardcore open source 20+ years of Linux on the desktop guy.

Wayland or X11? Why? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 34 points 9 months ago

Wayland is the future. X11's future is dead. Unfortunately there are still some growing pains. Xwayland mostly works but I have issues with it sometimes.

Does Valve honor warranty after SSD upgrade? in c/steamdeck@lemmy.ml

[-] burrito@sh.itjust.works 23 points 10 months ago

Yes, they have to repair it under warranty. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protects you here (assuming you're USA). I would definitely swap back your old drive unless they guarantee that you're getting the same one back. If you send it in they may send you a different one that doesn't have your drive in it.

What is your "inexpensive" hobby that turned out to be expensive/ you gradually invested lots of money into? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Sex toys. My collection is worth more than my car.
