Seems to be from the “No Poop July” trend a few months ago.

Didn’t you know that telling a joke more times makes it funnier? smh my head…

Lately, I’ve been really into self hosting. My first thought was server fan, not air conditioning haha🫠

Fair enough, I was only joking haha. I’m using both Sync and Eternity (known as Infinity for Lemmy) and both clients render Markdown. Can’t say for others clients. Seems like not every client see the same thing…

Everyone should use uBlock + Facebook Container. It’s still far from perfect, but every step counts.

Same scenario for me! My laptop only serve to have a device when I’m on-the-go, but at home, I use my desktop. It was one of the reason why I went with an older Thinkpad, it’s well supported and with no dedicated GPU, it’s dead silent most of the time. I’d love a 16:10 screen, but the options are pretty expensive and often not as repairable as my T480.

Seems like someone is new with Markdown notation haha :-)

You probably tried to write “number 1 […]” but the hash (#) converted your whole text to a Heading level 1.

I’d say lack of marketing and higher price tags. Money / Performance ratio is also better with a decent Thinkpad.

Some of these options can’t (or not without high markups) be bought and shipped to Canada.

Because it use common hardware and bought “en masse” by enterprises; they tend to be more supported with FOSS than other options.

I’ve been happy with my used T480 so far.

There’s KOHO for Canadians, still not a proper Privacy.com replacement but you get two Mastercard cards (one physical & one digital) and they are refillable via Interac payments.

When doing trials, I set a few dollars on the card to ensure if they try to do a 1$ transaction to verify the card and I’m good to go. Even if I forget to cancel, the payment won’t pass.

You could use LimeWire to get LimeWire Pro. Good times.
