Best way to keep a gmail based non-gmail email address - Lemmy.World
When I graduated university, they gave me, and others, graduate email addresses
with the domain @institution.edu. The catch is, it’s entirely based within
Gmail, despite having a unique domain. I want to keep using this address, as
it’s tied heavily to my professional career, but I’m not sure how to decouple it
from gmail ecosystem. Would using a client such as emClient be sufficient in
breaking Google’s monopoly?

Space required on USB stick for LM boot - Lemmy.World
I’m pretty much set on running my PC on Linux Mint, but before I make the full
plunge I want to test it out by launching it from a USB drive. I was wondering
how much discs I would need on the said USB stick so that I can boot into LM
environment and test it out.

Alternatives to Google Maps for navigation - Lemmy.World
First of all, thanks all for your tips on how to unravel my life from GMail.
I’ve slowly started to migrate over to Proton mail (slightly controversial but I
feel the full suite will be easier to sell my wife on, who loves her big tech
corpos) Now to the topic at hand, what are some good alternatives to Google maps
for driving directions?
Dash cam and selling car - Lemmy.World
I’m going to be selling my car in the coming weeks as it’s in its sunset years
and will be getting a new one. One wisdom I have though is around my dashcam.
Obviously I’ll be taking it from my old car and putting it in my new one, but
the thing is, it’s stuck to the windscreen with the M3 adhesive tape that came
with it. I’ve looked online and removing it should be as simple as heating the
adhesive strip with a hairdryer, but I was wondering, can I reuse the adhesive
strip, or will I need to get another one? For context, it’s been stuck to my
windscreen for around 6 months, so not sure what state the adhesive will be in.

How to migrate from GMail - Lemmy.World
I’ve had my GMail account for what must be almost 20 years now, and it’s pretty
ingrained in my life. My mortgage info comes via GMail, my bank statements come
via GMail, my health insurance comes via GMail, etc. Thinking about migrating
honestly seems like an insurmountable task. I have no idea where to begin. How
the hell do I go about untangling GMail services from my life. I’ve potentially
been looking to move to Proton for email, but any other suggestions (preferably
European based) would be welcome.
Can I interrupt chkdsk process - Lemmy.World
I noticed my D: drive was marked as dirty and some folders were coming up as
corrupted, so I recovered as much data as possible, and then scheduled a chkdsk
/r /f on next restart, and I’ve been here since Thursday (it progressed a bit
throughout Wednesday):

now need to urgently access files on my C: drive, but don’t know if I should
interrupt this process with a forced power off.

Just watched it on Disney+ and everything about the movie screams Hulk, yet
Captain America is the titular hero. Why?
Is it sexist to say "I've never worn a wet dress before"

Is it sexist to say "I've never worn a wet dress before" - Lemmy.World
Context: We’re in a bit of a heat wave and my daughter loves to cool down by
splashing in water. Today was no different. Once she was done, I say to her
“Let’s get you out of that wet dress. I imagine it must be uncomfortable. I’ve
never actually worn a wet dress before”. Before I can follow that up with “I’ve
worn wet clothes before, and that’s not the nicest”, my wife jumps in and claims
that me saying I’ve never worn a wet dress is sexist. Is it?
