Does anyone have any idea why there would be a pretty substantial line of people sitting outside of my local #BestBuy in Southern Indiana? They had lawn chairs and everything. This was at 7am. It was really weird.
Is there a limited exclusive game release or something?

Weird questions maybe, but, how do people feel about UML? Do you like having made diagrams before beginning to code? Do you plan and document before coding? If you don't like UML but you like engineering first and planning ahead, how do you document what you design?
I do like UML, but I wonder if it's because it's the only way I know to document software design.

Dear Fedipeeps, I seek your counsel on buying the right drawing pad. Here are my ideal requirements, though I am willing to compromise (especially on the price, and except the Linux part):
- Something to use with Krita - I am not a sophisticated artist by any margin, I plan to mostly draw naive, aquarelle- and flat-like comics and text-accompanying images.
- I prefer to see what I draw on the surface, so with a screen.
- Price range up to 666€.
- I use Linux, it should fully work on it.
I used some cheap Wacom in the past, it wasn't half-bad but I don't enjoy staring at a different screen. I've seen Huion Kamvas 16 Gen 3 recommended for my requirements, but I have no idea what I'm doing.
Any tips welcome!
Appreciated if you share this toot for visibility!

Guten Morgen! ☕️
Ich werfe heute mal eine Frage in die Runde, die mich schon länger beschäftigt: Das Thema alternative Betriebssysteme auf dem Smartphone. 📱✨
Ich schaue mir gerade verschiedene Wege an, um weg von den Standard-Systemen zu kommen. Dabei stolpere ich immer wieder über spannende Projekte wie #LineageOS, frage mich aber: Was nutzt ihr eigentlich im Alltag?
Nutzt ihr LineageOS (mit oder ohne GApps)?
Habt ihr Erfahrungen mit anderen Custom-ROMs oder Systemen wie #UbuntuTouch oder #SailfishOS?
Oder seid ihr doch beim klassischen Android/iOS geblieben, weil die Bequemlichkeit siegt?
Ich suche nach dem richtigen Weg für mehr digitale Souveränität, ohne dass der Alltag zur Bastelbude wird. Was sind eure Empfehlungen oder Warnungen? 🕵️♂️
Bin gespannt auf eure Meinungen! 👇#Smartphone #CustomROM #LineageOS #Privacy #OpenSource #DeGoogle #TechTalk #LinuxMobile #DigitalSovereignty #AskMastodon

My #BangleJS2 #smartwatch finally broke. Before that I used #PineTime. Here in the UK, both are now really tough to buy or way higher in price than what I can ideally afford. I have used these primarily so I'd get notifications when I'm needed by my partner, who I care for. Anyone know of a good value #FOSS #smartwatch that I've somehow missed news of? #AskMastodon #AskFedi #HiveMind

Anyone else heard about the sourvereign, and alternative #DNS #TLD
chn.? There is a #Wikipedia article in Chinese. I am unsure if it is actually something actively pursued in #China to step up their #Internet #control game. Or if it was merely a financial asset to attract venture capital?Would love some insights from more knowledable people.

I made a thing and I'd quite like you to vote for it. It's a new Federated server that allows the public to share environmental data. All the details are on the page (plus my embarrassing video) and it's up for vote in the Hack for Humanity 2026.
Watch the video, read the gumph and if you've got the energy click the vote button.
Thanks all.

What made you choose your Fediverse Instance?
Why did you choose your Fediverse Instance, does it have a bigger meaning than it was a bigger instance or was it for a certain reason? Did you have to be on your instance you chose?

I am currently using #fedora as my main #linuxdistribution.
The main selling point about Fedora was the frequent updates, but I don't think that I'm deep enough into Linux to feel the benefits.
I think I should try #distrohopping to at least know what the competition looks like.
What #linuxdistro do you guys recommend for a guy that wants to learn low-level #programming and that likes to test things?
PS: I had also tried #zorinos before Fedora.

This is a long shot but, I'm looking for a specific artist. I used to follow them on Instagram and I've totally forgotten their handle (there's no way I'd remember their real name either).
There's a specific painting that I remember very well, it's of a pair of headlights illuminating a garage door. The garage door is ajar and a pair of horse legs can be seen standing in a pool of blood.
The artists uses a lot of shadow and negative space in their art. Sometimes featuring animals; dogs, tigers...

So, Windows PC users using iPhone, what are you using to save / archive your photos? Where is your gallery -- entirely online in iCloud or is your PC your primary go-to storage?
How do you interact with them / edit them on your Windows PC?

home networking question the second
is there any better option for managed switches and access points than ubiquiti on price point?
currently staring down the barrel of a ~£450 cost to replace the current ASUS garbage and misc unmanaged switches
(USW-Flex-2.5G-PoE for downstream of the router, U7-Lite for ground, USW-Flex-2.5G upstairs access, U7-Lite and PoE+ injector for upper floor)

home networking question
is doing 2.5gbe worth it, or do i just get a bigger 1gbe switch with LAGG?
(i have 2 devices that are >1gbe; a NAS with 10gbe, and my PC with 2.5gbe)
looking at managed/smart-managed switches with VLAN capability

I bought a 16 TB #Seagate Ironwolf Pro drive and just got done installing it into my Sabrent 5 bay #JBOD.
When I turn it on it makes a strange sound and neither Disk Management nor DiskPart at the command prompt can see the drive to initialize or format it.
I don't have to do anything special to a NAS drive running as a regular non-raid HD do I?
My other four drives contain 8 TB barracudas and they have all worked perfectly fine.
Is this perhaps a bad drive?

Why is that when I search for an account on an instance, it shows up but when I search for the same account on another instance, it doesn't show up? This has happened to me far too many times at this point. And I used to think it only happens on #infosec.exchange (this was the only instance I have ever used till today's afternoon). But I checked out other instances today and it happens on others too including #sakurajimamoe 🥲 And this doesn't only happen with accounts but also with posts. On some instances, for some accounts, it doesn't show any activity or posts of the account at all even while the profile shows when searched. And sometimes, it shows some posts and doesn't show some. Can anyone enlighten me about this 🙏🙏

Someone on fedi shared a link to some kind of mattress review blog/site, that had a post about which kind of mattress was the best for sex... does anyone know what I'm talking about? The design of the site was very basic, minimal/no javascript, like HTML and nice CSS.

An update to my previous post
https://mas.to/@Judeau/115305731549315202The replacement gear came in & It works like a charm!
Unfortunately, while it goes through the motions, nothing actually prints on the paper. Previously the head had a lot of dried ink on it. I suspect there's dried ink inside somewhere.
Is there a good way to go about cleaning the printhead? Could I soak it in hot water or some cleaning solution?

I just purchased a 19 year old #inkjet #printer for a project.
It has a black and a color ink cartridge already installed and came with some new ones that are still sealed.
I don't like waste. Is there any harm in trying the ones that are already installed or could that cause major issues?
If so then I will just pitch them and hope the sealed ones are still good.

I was talking with a friend about the phenomenon of Finding Love in the Fediverse (I have several friends who have done it) — and he was shocked to hear it was even a thing.
That conversation's got me curious, so I want to open the question up:
Has anyone ever slid into your DMs respectfully and appropriately on Fedi? Have you ever initiated that kind of contact yourself?*
*I'm truly talking about appropriate, welcome, consensual connections, not randos harassing people. If you don't understand the distinction, I recommend that you stay out of this conversation and just quietly read and learn. (Anyone who responds with how women are mean to them will be recognized as a derailing troll and blocked accordingly -- hush, the adults are talking )

Could #Friendica or #Hubzilla be useful for:
- a #calendar (suitable for people in various time zones)
- a #wiki
- collaborative, so that if one person leaves or deletes, the rest of the group can carry on / restoreContext
- organizing #WatchParty on #Mastodon, #Bluesky etc
- tracking watched movies
