What are the career fields where you definitely don't need a LinkedIn? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Some might say that no one needs LinkedIn at all but there are some jobs that people struggle to attain so they get on LinkedIn. I have noticed though that I've mostly seen users who are in things like tech, marketing, business, and blue collar jobs on that platform. I didn't see many people on there who work in medical professions but it could have just been a tailored experience for me. Are there career fields where you wouldn't even think about making a LinkedIn?

Debian: Are apps in Discover store all Flatpaks by default? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Okay thanks. I'm thinking of sticking with deb packages also at the moment because a lot of apps on the flathub website say "Unverified"

I just installed Debian with the KDE desktop and I'm looking to see what kind of packages are available in the Discover store by default as they are not labeled i.e., Snaps/Flatpak. Should I install Flatpak? Thanks I don't to break anything

Is Spotify desktop unsafe to install on Ubuntu? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Basically, my entire system is FOSS but I'm tempted to install the Spotify .deb package. Would that give Spotify access to info about my system?

I want to move out from Ubuntu and use something else. in c/linux@lemmy.ml

If you're seeking something simple to use where you may never need to open the terminal, I'd say ZorinOS(Lite).

You can also test out Debian if you don't mind a bit of tinkering on the terminal. You'll have to add yourself as a user to the sudoers list first thing but there are plenty of 2-second video tutorials on how.

For both distros, if you are searching for support, you'd search "on Ubuntu" and basically the same would apply.

Yeah the washing machine app is for the public laundromat. I tried it on GrapheneOS with everything enabled but it was lacking something that is only on stock Google Android. I haven't tried it on a MicroG phone yet.

I have friends who care about privacy but they need phones that can do Uber and washing machine apps. So I'm the only one i know with a private FOSS phone.

Hi, I want to make memes but I want to use those funny characters for example in Linux memes. They are the ones where it looks like someone drew them by hand. Is there a website where I can find and download them? Thanks in advance

I'm on Debian 12 KDE and i need to update the clock to Arizona time but it's not available.

Honestly, it won't even let me change it to California time. After entering my password it denies my request.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Edit Neither my user or root password works for this

Do cookies communicate IP address in any way? (sh.itjust.works)
 

For example, if:

  1. I'm on a tracking website like Linkedin
  2. I log out and close the browser
  3. I turn on the vpn and open the same browser
  4. I create a Spotify account

Is it possible that Spotify will give me targeted ads based on my home IP due to the cookies?

Thanks in advance

Does Windows virtual machine crash due to low RAM? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I installed Windows 11 in Virtual Box in case I need it for school but it keeps crashing. My laptop is 12gb RAM and I gave the VM 8gb RAM.

If I upgrade my laptop RAM to maybe 16gb and give the VM 12gb RAM would that help? Thanks I'm a newb

What's the dirt on Waterfox? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm aware that it used to be owned by an ad company System1. But I found this post by the founder where he said that it's now an independent project.
