When was the last time I changed the oil in my mower? in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Oof glad I don't have to do that anymore. My car on the other hand... 😐 It's probably due

Imho no amount of paywall or legislation protects us from a dangerous model. It's software that will eventually become widely available.

When and why did democrats begin supporting fracking? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] mvirts@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I thought the problem was that fracking produces oil, which is processed and burnt for energy ultimately releasing excess carbon? Idk it's been a while since I've caught up with climate science :/

What's your radical opinion? in c/microblogmemes@lemmy.world
[–] mvirts@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

None of the doom and gloom really matters, every human in history has lived in a time of crisis. How we handle the challenges at hand determine the challenges for those that follow, but panicking about it is a waste of energy.

I enjoy red hat's paid support articles that end by saying this is untested and may not work but it was added to the knowledge base 10 years ago

Would a brigade effort to "engage" with Trump ads in streaming services force the campaign to waste extra money, and make a viable psyop when they measure their telemetry? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

As much as the hacker in me would love to do this, I sincerely hope ideas (posts... not ideas really) like this don't become fodder for the paranoia propaganda machine driving MAGA.

With mpd all my outputs go through an amplifier, so I keep the amp set so that max volume is not too loud. It's a low tech strategy but keeps my ears and my speakers safe.

Fedora 42 On 64-bit ARM Might Make It Seamless To Run x86/x86_64 Programs in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Don't worry Java is alive and well on Android... For now 😹

We can already run arm seamlessly on x86 Linux, why not use Qemu-user + binfmt misc the other way around? I guess FEX must be much faster. Im also not super keen to run binaries that can't be recompiled anyway so probably not the target audience.

Take that Java, everything is a portable binary now.

Any thoughts on why cat /sys/kernel/notes gives me:

I'm beginning to look into another issue I posted about, but this struck me as odd

Help w/ crash (lemmy.world)
 

Any advice on where to go from here? This console was running dmesg -w to try and catch an intermittent crash... And this is what I got. I am using an el cheapo USB wifi adapter that I'm suspicious of.

Everything was working fine until I rebuilt nixos with Nvidia support... Now my old generations of the OS are crashing after a few minutes (display on, no response to input, keyboard lights don't respond, SysRq doesn't work)

malware on wefwef.app? (lemmy.world)
 

Anyone else getting random sketchy websites occasionally instead of the link in posts? Second try usually works fine.

XC90 speed vibration (lemmy.world)
 

I've been procrastinating a fix for a vibration that is speed related on my xc90. It starts around 45mph and comes and goes up to 65 or 70... I broke some stuff 'diagnosing' it, and once I fix that I'm going to take the awd driveshaft out. I'm assuming a bearing is bad, any ideas? I want to repair the driveshaft because it's really expensive to replace.

let's play make more space on / (lemmy.world)
 

I have the unique pleasure of waiting as /usr is copied back to my Ubuntu SSD after offloading it to a sea of spinning rust to save some space. Surprise surprise Ubuntu keeps almost everything in /usr these days and it didnt boot :l but hey, at least BusyBox in initramfs has my back for times like these. Can i mount a specific ext4 directory with options? the issue seems to be my attempt at using a bind mount fails while running from the ramdisk, for whatever reason it wont mount my large data drive on /data
