Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux is awesome at home, but aren't y'all forced to use Windows at work?
1·9 months agoI go around the problem by barely having to use a Computer at work. Pretty much the only thing I do with it is feed data into an online databank over a browser

Linux@lemmy.ml•Black Python Devs Join the GNOME Foundation Nonprofit Umbrella – The GNOME Foundation
202·2 years agoIf those people are marginalised why not make organisations that help them get into programming?
When you think about stereotypical programmers, you usually picture a white guy somewhere between 30 and 50 years of age (at least in Europe and I presume the USA). Coding used to be a profession that was predominantly made up of women but when it became clear that it would become an important job more and more men became interested in IT so that now there are about eight male programmers out of ten.
Black people have similar issues (and god forbid you are a black woman) in that they often are paid worse for the same jobs than white people and have worse chances to get good secondary education and academic jobs even if they have the same intelligence as white people. Helping people to get into computer sciences that statistically have way lower chances to do so without any fault of their own is a good thing in my opinion.
An ex of my mom left an openSUSE shirt behind after they broke up. I recently found it again and tried out tumbleweed out of curiosity. I cant say that I am disappointed by it and it also is very accessible to newbies to linux.

Android@lemdro.id•I abandoned my iPad for an Android tablet and didn’t hate itEnglish
2·3 years agoWho the fuck would pay 3.000€ for an iPad? I had to buy one because Apple somehow managed to get an exclusivity contract with the schools of my city but that ‘only’ costed 400€ with the additional option to get financial support if your family can’t pay this much money. If possible I would have used a laptop or at least something other than an iPad but now I have to use it and hate it with my entire being although their glorified Bluetooth was quite nice before they gimped it.

Mechanical Keyboards@lemmy.ml•Looking for nice budget keyboard
11·3 years agoMy Keychron has a dongle, although it was one of their more costly models.
Tagging other users already is a feature in Connect, spoilers (in textbodies) work on all apps that I used and bots are getting made right now and it is only a matter of time until they are as ubiquitous as on reddit.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Having a normal piracy related sub on reddit is actually a good thing.English
61·3 years agoIn germany it seems like a lot of döner"restaurants" and hairdressers are in cahoots with local gangs, I cant explain otherwise why there sometimes are three or more of them almost next to each other without going bankrupt. Like, in a street near my home there are three hairdressers all less than twenty meters from each other.

0·3 years agoDepends on the games you want and your internet connection as well as pc specs. 1337x .to is pretty safe but it only has torrents for which you need a vpn if you live in a country that gives a shit about copyright. Fitgirl, Dodi and Kaoskrew are some of the most well known and trusted repackers that also offer ddl. fitgirl-repacks .site, dodi-repacks .site and kaoskrew.org are their respective sites. I would generally recommend torrents since they are available for a longer time and are easier to find for me. If you want to use torrents I would recommend qbittorrent since it is fast and doesnt shove ads in your face. If you want direct downloads I recommend checking out a download manager like jdownloader.
I have no clue how much this will help with mac pirating
I dont get why you would even want to game on one if you have a pc available, but it will work on windows at least.

Thanks, that helped. I also used the chance to finally clean up the inside of my pc a bit
