I use mine for a VPS running Ubuntu. It let’s me mess around with stuff and also let’s me host things like discord bots without needing a local pc always running.
My VPS is pretty cheap, something like 10 bucks a month so it’s worth it for me.

Hmm I used to be proud of being Canadian. These days it’s getting harder and harder.
I second brother, mines been running strong for almost 10 years
As someone on the edge of making the change myself, I have been enjoying these posts because I have been getting to learn some of the different distros and there pros and cons. Lemmy isn’t insanely active right now, so you get a different group of perspectives with each iteration of the question.
Maybe once lemmy gets bigger we can break off these sorts of questions into their own catalog but for now I think they are doing more good than harm here.
Just my two cents tho, obviously you have the right to disagree :)
I’ve had the same brother laser printer since uni (shit thats like 10 years ago now) and it’s never let me down. The only issue is it stops responding over the network sometimes when I Havnt used it in months.
That was quite the read but pretty worth it. He talks about a lot of the mistakes he made not just in relation to his crime, but as a developer, project leader, and general human being.
He discusses what things he would have done differently, and how he thinks that could have changed things not only for him but his software as well.
He mentions multiple times how much he wishes that the conflict handling and social classes he has access to in prison, were available to him in school. He ends the letter with a call to action, for just that asking people to try and affect legislation to get more youth access to this information to avoid cases such as his.
I was having trouble with my glass bed originally, to get it working nicely without glue or hairspray I:
Maybe one of those will help?
Sure I’d love to move to the city, but rent/costs are waay higher in the city. I couldn’t afford to move to the city, even considering the cost of gas.
I don’t thinka Ev are going to save us, but they give those wanting to make a change the option. That said if you can afford a fancy new Ev you likely have the available income to move closer so idk.
Edit: just wanted to say I agree with everything you said, just bring up problems with implementation for the sake of discussion :)
That works for urban areas, but so much of Canada is rural. If I biked to work I’d need to leave like 3 hours before work started. And that doesn’t even address winter travel, good luck using your bike with a couple feet of snow.
So while foot/bike paths are important, we can’t just stop all car use. And EVs are much better if a vehicle is required, especially if powered by renewables.
I’m I the only one that finds my office atmosphere overall nice and friendly? There’s no one at work I don’t get along with, and I definitely don’t have ‘enemies’. Sure there are a couple people that cause me a bit of extra work every once in a while, but I’m sure I’ve caused the same at some point.
Office work doesn’t have to suck
Don’t ban them, that’ll just start up a black market for them which way less safe and also makes sure the government doesn’t get any portion of the sales to fund healthcare.
I say slowly ramp up the tax on them, incentiving smokers to quit. The higher price would also help prevent future smokers from picking up the habit since they’ll be so expensive, for pretty much no gain.
And it’s really good, has some fun stories from the early days at Microsoft
That looks pretty cool, I’ll have to check it out. Here is a link if anyone else is interested https://sandstorm.io/
