Yup, no doubts there.

Anyway, OP, if I were you I'd buy that laptop (not for gaming tho, or at least not if you're looking for something more than "good enough")

I'm not really sure, but wasn't userbenchmark biased in favor of nvidia gpu?

In any case, I agree that an rx5500 is on the weaker side, so don't expect much, but it shouldn't be a lot worse than an rtx3050 (i'm not an expert tho)

What are some of the most popular Lemmy apps to use? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I used jerboa at first and it was really great, although a bit buggy (haven't used it in a while tho)

I'm now using a different frontend my instance provides (Photon, at p.lemmy.dbzer0.com) and it is really great on mobile. I added it to my home from the browser and it just feels like an app

Asking for donations in Plasma in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ads try to sell you something, there is no "call to action". Here, there is nothing to sell, so by definition it's not an ad.

They are just asking you if you'd like to help them in providing you the product you're already using.

Not an ad. No one is trying to sell you anything.

(If you get the notification) you're already using their product.

Honestly i wouldn't mind. Users on .world that don't want a butt load of defederations will probably (and hopefully) move to another instance, whilst the rest of lemmy will be free from all the liberals uncapable of discriminating between communists and tankies

How to create a bootable Linux USB drive in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I don't remember where, but i read that this method only works because linux distributors "abuse" the ISO format to allow this. If I remember right, it's not possible to use this ISOs on regular disks

Of course the command you provided is right and it's what I use, it's just a fun fact

Dazed and confused, but trying to continue

I get this one like once a week and it always makes me laugh. One day I'll investigate

I think it refers to applications that do not respect the standard directories like /usr/bin, /usr/share/man, /etc
