Nothing happens when creating a new community - Lemmy.world
In the past two days I’ve been trying to create a community, but without
success. I insert the name (with the allowed characters), the display name, and
so on. But when I click on create a spinning wheel appears for a second or two,
then goes back to create and nothing has happened. I created two communities
previously (10 days ago or so) without problems. I imagine it’s just an effect
of the current load for Lemmy.world, but wanted to ask just in case.
Reborn as a Vending Machine... - Lemmy.world
This
[https://myanimelist.net/anime/52619/Jidou_Hanbaiki_ni_Umarekawatta_Ore_wa_Meikyuu_wo_Samayou]
starts tomorrow. The premise is really one of a kind. I’m very curious to see
how they pull this off!

Software alternatives for Linux

Software alternatives for Linux - Lemmy.world
Many members of this community are computer users who recently moved to Linux
from other OSs, Windows in particular. Having established their work and hobbies
on a particular software base, they often encounter difficulties trying to find
similar software on Linux. I’d like this to be a sort of board where members
comment about some software alternative they’re looking for, and other members
sub-comment with possible solutions. What’s a solution? It’s important to be
broad-minded about this when switching to Linux: - Exactly the same software
could be available for Linux. - Different software but with similar critical
features could be available for Linux. - It could be possible to use emulators
(such as Wine) of the old OS. - Finally, one can change one’s perspective or
workflow, in such a way that the old software is not needed any longer, but is
replaced with other software of a different kind (this may actually lead to much
improved workflows). (Moderators: feel free to take over this post. Also please
let me know if a similar board exists already here, so I delete this.)

> You are being watched. The government has a secret system, a machine that
spies on you every hour of every day. I designed the machine to detect acts of
terror, but it sees everything. Violent crimes involving ordinary people. The
government considers these people “irrelevant”. We don’t. Hunted by the
authorities, we work in secret. You’ll never find us. But victim or perpetrator,
if your number’s up… we’ll find you. Who remembers and misses this outstanding
show? Will we ever enjoy the like again? It’s still so actual in these AI days.

Severance [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11280740] was one of the most beautiful
series I watched of late. Not just intriguing, but beautiful, artistically
beautiful. Very happy to hear it’s been renewed for a second season. I note
there are no discussions here about it. How come?
How do you find and add OEM repositories?

How do you find and add OEM repositories? - Lemmy.world
I just installed Kubuntu 22.04 on a Thinkpad, letting it take over (on purpose)
the whole hard drive. Everything is working fine so far, all hardware seems to
be working. If I take a look at software-properties, the “Other sources” list is
empty: there are no ppa’s added at the moment. On another Thinkpad I have Ubuntu
20.04 pre-installed. In the “Other sources” list I see some OEM repositories:
they must have been added by the Lenovo people before shipping. I have two
questions about this: 1. How necessary or useful are these OEM ppas? I fear that
they may have important improvements for specific machines. 2. How do you find
these OEM ppas? For example, what should I do to find such a ppa for the first
Thinkpad (with Kubuntu), and see if it has useful software or drivers? Edit:
just as an example, there’s this list: http://oem.archive.canonical.com/dists/
[http://oem.archive.canonical.com/dists/] But I have no idea how to choose from
there, it’s a bit of a labyrint and the names don’t reveal very much. For
example, there are several “jammy-…” folders; and if you enter one of them, say
“jammy”, there are many subfolders with very cryptic names.
