I guess I choose Denmark or maybe Portugal. Having USA and Russia being superpowers has been real shit.

Terramaster.

Beware, an NAS will have its own file formats and structure. I put all my music files and backups on a NAS, which failed. Now I can’t recover them without buying another NAS of similar model. More ore less the opposite of why I got a NAS.

Possibly related question. Layely I’ve been getting email ‘replies’ from various businesses and services (all over the country, USA) all about an ‘inquiry’ that I never made. Apparently someone just got my email address and is using that for – what ? A couple questions:

** What is that someone up to, why doing that?

** Should I do something about that?

** What could I do? Don’t want to change email address.

Tickets to sports events. Yawn.

Trump hadn’t been born yet.

Yeah, lets complicate and screw everything up to solve a nonexistent problem so some politicians can feel righteous. Cause there’s nothing important for legislatures to address.

Maybe a pature happened, but it was Rush Limbaugh getting raptured down to an even lower depth of hell.

LibreOffice. No need for MS Office, ever

I’m not sure they were expecting returns. Just afraid that if other companies had AI, they might lose business to them. Except of course a lot of people (or at least I) avoid anything with AI and mistrust its results.

Oversharing not appreciated, but opinions on Trump probed. Gonna be some conflict there.

Yup. Off to Linux I go.

A negative (for me at least) is the use of UV curable resin. I’ve got a mSLA printer I don’t use anymore because that material is very nasty stuff. Fumes needing ventilation, spills from hell, disposal difficulty, and rubber gloves being required else the uncured resin will literally tear the skin off your fingers over time with even slight unnoticed contact. More than I want to deal with unless absolutely necessary, taking it out of the range of fun hobby stuff.

Taxidermy for her dead soul.

Is there anyone reading Lemmy that wasn’t already aware of this one? I mean, it’s not bad to bring it up again (and again, and again, etc), but it’s hardly news.

But if you haven’t already, be sure to see the second 2025 episode of South Park!

Or maybe they found a way to somehow survive without so many electric snd electronic gizmos?

Replaceable battery. No contest.

Had one of those, but it eventually died. Great phone.

LOTR stuff. Pompous and boring.

Wish there was a requirement that all districts be rectangular or triangular. That would make gerrymandering more difficult to arrange.
