Modern dishwashers do this. This is done to save energy. In the old days, dishwashers just heated stuff really hot to force evaporation of surface water.

Modern dishwashers can do this too, but there is an option to just open the door and let them dry naturally. This is a longer process, but if you do like me and program it at midnight… Then it has plenty of time to dry up fine.

Why would you do that? We should all keep on seeding as long as possible.

Huge warning about XMPP:

If you encrypt with OMEMO (which seems to be the only accepted encryption nowadays), forget about being able to sync your messages to a new client. Forget about being able to try another client. That is, unless you want to lose all of your message history.

When I found this out while installing another distro… It made me so angry I literally stopped using it. I recommend Delta Chat, Matrix and Signal nowadays.

Is there a way one could load this up as a Nextcloud app, or something?

Every GNOME install tutorial:

please install this 3rd party application to install even more 3rd party extensions, otherwise your default experience will be shit.

Meanwhile KDE:

here you go, everything you need is here. Want more? Want less? Just touch me and find out, I can make your dreams come true, baby.

Come on, Zuckerberg, do what you said you’d do. Leave the EU. COME ON!! DO IT!!!

Also, Apple, you said you also wanted to leave because of the EU, right? DO IT!!!

Why are you still here?? Oh, turns out you can still make a fucking ton of money, huh? Also, if you left the EU, it would show the world WE DON’T NEED YOU. YOU SERVE NO PURPOSE, BUT TO MANIPULATE AND EXTORT FOR PROFIT.

Please stop with these useless articles. Yes, every world power likes gathering metadata. And no, USA is not a “better place” for metadata gathering.

Well, you fell on the sad trap of the “default flavour” of many distros.

I think GNOME only has that presence because… It’s american. Otherwise… No one can beat the possibilities and features of KDE Plasma. Truly a complete desktop, so good you could downgrade it to work like GNOME if you wanted.

Let me stop you right there: the chances of Jellyfin going rogue are much smaller. It’s libre software. It’s GPL. It’s copyleft. We are pretty much safe.

You are not a Plasma user it seems.

Does omebody know about a trusted tool for easy deletion of specific chunks of info from Facebook?

I would like to keep some stuff so no copycats can be made, but I’d like to delete things such as my “liked movies” and shit.

There is a Lemmy version of the same community, I won’t link to it just in case, but it’s very easy to find.

It’s not as active, but if you are going to reddit, make sure you come back and post some info to ours!

It’s pretty fair to dunk on Brave because it’s Chromium. I don’t want the biggest ad company in the world having the monopoly on how we see the Internet, and Brave perpetuates that.

You can skip that step. Not that it’s okay, tho.

Also, seed to I2P trackers!! It’s now possible with qBitTorrent.

Signal should work, at least through my experience. It would also serve as a chat and stories alternative.

Just a note, but there are many many more invidious instances.

Is TeleGuard libre software? If it’s not, which seems to be the case… Then NOBODY knows what TeleGuard does (aside from certain company members of course).

I would run in the other direction.

I wouldn’t honestly pay for an email service that does not allow for PGP encryption. Go for mailbox.org or posteo for true standard-respecting emails.
