  • I have a project with a raspberry pi 2 and small screen that works with the command line very well. I want to stay in there.

    The issue with just using other txt options is that bookmarks, dictionaries, and just knowing where I left off would be difficult. Plus I only have a couple of mapped keys.

  • Most text editors like vim/emacs/ect have ways of using a debugger.

    I remember vim being a bit involved, but the performance was awesome.

    But then if you put enough bells and whistles on text editors, do they become an ide?

  • Im really really tempted to delete my linkedin. Its never got me a job in my life, but I did notice a lot of people look at my page before I got a couple in the past.

    Its not a very good system. Its just more professional facebook with less subtlety about people looking at your page. And they lock EVERYTHING down that is useful in a paywall.

  • Guys, what's the best Linux distro to install on my PC?

    Jump

  • Im guilty of this. As long as they are using Linux though it makes me happy.

  • Lemmy's active userbase has been stable since September 2025

    Jump

  • Woo we staying!

    Also anyone know how to use their API? https://api.fediverse.observer/

    I would love to make a "treadiverse" combo line. Cause its hard to look at when piefed is slowly going up, lemmy is slowly going down, and m/k bin is going all over.

    EDIT: Never mind, found it. Theres an icon on the right hand side.

  • we need more users

  • Might be "Automatically add new remote communities" toggle on the admin side.

  • I used to do a ton of seeding on isos but it really took its tool on the old harddrive I did it on. I kinda stopped for a long time. I used to do it for the origonal Ubuntu isos like 8.04 or something like that. And puppy linux :)...

    Ive never heard of apt-mirror, thats interesting. Ill have to take a look. thanks!

  • I think a good test is to shut off your house internet and see what things you still need. Like actually disconnect the router and only go off your own infa. What can you get done, what things do you still need?

    For me I found out:

    1. All my software development packages, linux isos, etc.... are ALL online. If I was unable to get on certain websites, I would be SOL in doing most of my software development. Even simple stuff like installing via apt would be VERY hard.
    2. While I have OSM (open street maps), I dont have address info saved anywhere.
    3. Most of my mesh stuff (meshtastic) has online tools for all the builds and deploys. Meaning if the website goes down im SOL getting new nodes out in the wild.
    4. Entertainment is pretty much covered, since we dont have anything streaming anyways. We try to keep things DRM free to begin with so books/audio/movies can go to different places without worry.
    5. Radio still works, so news isnt really a big deal.
    6. I need to get a backup of some encyclopedias and/or get wikipedia somewhere hosted. That would be fun and informative.

  • Wondering if running a single user Lemmy is an overkill
