Can you elaborate what you mean by cold takes and why that's something you wish more of?

Those are some nice use cases and very cool that you've set that all up while breathing new life into old hardware. Thanks for taking the time, happy holidays.

Sync for Lemmy, is outdated and no longer in sync with api in c/syncforlemmy

As someone who used sync on reddit for many years, I switched to Summit a few weeks ago and it's great. This post comparing a lot of lemmy apps made me finally take the plunge: https://lemmy.world/post/18159531

I too want to know more about this. Also, what happens to all the Chromium based browsers once Google doesn't maintain it? Edit: I use Firefox and will continue to do so.

What Service do you use? I'd like to do the same, because it's not always clear by the charge on my statement who I'm paying. I would imaging having named CCs, like email aliases, would help me keep an eye on things.

I'd be interested in hearing what you do with those tablets, if you want to share.

I looked around a bit, and while I couldn't find a drawn flowchart for the EU, r/EUpersonalfinance has a page on their wiki inspired by(links to it too) the US flowchart and accompanying text. I hate to plug reddit as well, but here is the link.

As a total beginner, it's not really clear to me what's meant here. I read printing some things are better to print at an angle, like boxes, for additional strength. Is that what's meant here?

Running a Continuous NAS on Dual-Boot PC with Linux and Windows: Is It Possible? (self.selfhosted)
 

I have a desktop PC with two SSDs—one with Windows installed and the other currently empty, which I plan to use for Linux as I migrate to it. Additionally, I have two 4TB HDDs I intend to configure for NAS storage.

Since I can't afford a dedicated NAS setup just yet, I’m considering dedicating a portion of the empty SSD to run a NAS solution like TrueNAS or Proxmox for self-hosting. Ideally, I'd like the NAS portion to operate continuously in the background, while allowing me to boot into either Linux or Windows as usual.

Is it possible to set up the NAS environment this way, so it’s always running and accessible, even as I switch between Linux and Windows on my main system?

[Feature Request] quickly copy raw comment text (self.summit)

Currently you have to press view comment raw and then select all the text, then copy it. It'd be nice if there was a quicker way to copy the comment text.

Help with internet archive not providing a archive link (self.asklemmy)

I'm trying to get a archived link for this website, which I want to archive for a bachelor thesis. But it's always giving me errors when clicking the timestamp on the calendar where it says it was archived. I'd really appreciate some help, I've been trying to troubleshoot for a few hours now. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/real-life-stories/psychologist-blinds-woman-drain-cleaner-6552282

Edit: ok, I went back to 2015 on the calendar and it worked from back then. Idk if the robot.txt is preventing more recent archive attempts. Here is a functioning link just to have this post completed as "answered" https://web.archive.org/web/20151002133313/https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/real-life-stories/psychologist-blinds-woman-drain-cleaner-6552282

Seeking Advice: Efficiently Archiving Lemmy Comments and Posts on Android (self.datahoarder)
 

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a more efficient way to save and archive Lemmy comments and posts on my Android phone.
Currently, when I come across a comment I want to keep for future reference, I manually copy the text and link, then paste it into a note in my Obsidian vault. If there's an image or other media in the original post, I save and include that as well.

However, this process feels a bit cumbersome. Ideally, I’d like a way to quickly save or share a comment or post URL and automatically archive the top 20 or so comment chains, along with the original post, including any images, videos, or articles.

Has anyone found a streamlined method for doing this? I often find that by the time I return to check the responses or review the content, the post or article has disappeared. Any tips or tools that could help simplify this process would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Finding recent post comparing lemmy clients on how they view markup etc (self.nostupidquestions)
 

Recently, within the last month or two, here was a very thorough lemmy post, maybe from a community called fediverse? It compared lots of lemmy clients, one comparison, maybe the main comparison? Was how the clients displayed markup and then gave a rating to each client. I remember jerboa and voyager being one of the top performers. Can someone help me find this post? Or advise me on how to search for it better? I already looked st the mentioned community but didn't find anything.
I'd appreciate any help.
