Anybody know the species of this fledgling?
  • Me too. Yea it looks like a European Starling. The juveniles are brown and adults are black with speckles. We get tons of them this time of year. They are very loud and bully the smaller birds. If he can't fly yet, you can try and put him back in his nest.

  • what's your current linux distro?
  • I've tried a couple different KDE distros and settled on Fedora 40 KDE spin. It seems to be the most complete KDE experience without all of the Canonical/snap bloat. It works great on my Thinkpad. Also runs decent on my gaming desktop using the latest Nvidia beta driver - I used to get stutters and artifacts in games/steam/plex and now with the beta driver those apps run fine

  • Update about lemm.ee infrastructure & upcoming cakeday
  • Thank you for everything you do. I appreciate the visibility into the technical aspects of the instance. That's what makes Lemmy unique. It's built for users by users. I'm glad I picked this instance back when this all started. Keep up the good work!

  • Router recommendations? (under 100CAD)
  • I have some tp link deco mesh units I got refurbished from the official tp link eBay store. They work great and have good coverage. But it's not open source and you need to use their phone app the manage them - but their app isn't too bad. It does everything I need it to do

  • Chromecast with Google TV is now serving full-screen, auto-playing Chicken Tender Wrap ads
  • Download another launcher, set it as default home, and forget about google's excessive ads. Depending on your model, you may need to run an ADB command. You may need to get a remote remapper app to remap the home button to open the launcher

    I am using this one for my android tv https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spocky.projengmenu

    And flauncher for my chromecast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.efesser.flauncher

  • I'm not all to familiar with the iso layouts. Non of my model Ms have wire stabilizer for any key other than spacebar.

    Maybe your enter key is using a wire stabilizer and the wire is missing. Check the bottom of your enter key and see which type of stabilization it is using (https://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=55003.0;attach=56349;image). If it is using the wire and it's missing or damaged, you can probably take the wire from the plus key and use it for enter

  • Each keycap has one spring. The larger keys have a stabilizer (the blue insert). From your picture, it looks like you have all the springs. You'll just need a blue insert for enter key, + key, and numpad enter key.

    You may be able to find someone selling the stabilizer inserts on ebay for cheap. In the meantime, you can move the blue insert from numpad zero to the enter key if you use enter key more often.

  • What's the best piracy for music?
  • You have to keep on the computer that is running jellyfin/plex server. Then as long as the server is running and everything is set up, you can access all of your own songs and playlists from the android app.

    There are a ton of tutorials out there for setting up jellyfin or plex.

  • What's the best piracy for music?
  • Download mp3 or flac from artists you like. Install jellyfin or plex on an old PC, laptop, or raspberry pi and store the music there. Install finamp or plexamp on your phone. And you got your own personal spotify that you can access from anywhere

  • What is your internet service plan?
  • 600 down / 20 up for $95 in western PA. My area only has one option, Comcast. So they can basically make the price whatever that want. The other side of town also has FiOS and of course the same Comcast plan is $60 there. I hate it so much

  • YSK: If you want faster and less buggy User experience, move to a smaller instance that is hosted close to you.
  • Yes, I just made the switch to a closer instance yesterday. So much faster. I was on lemmy.world for the past few weeks but then I realized the server is hosted in Europe and I was getting 144ms ping from US east coast. This new instance I'm on, I'm getting 22ms ping.

    You can test latency yourself from cmd by typing "ping lemmy.world" for example
