Welcome to the fediverse!

Definitely search for the communities you are interested in and click subscribe. There may be several similar communities on different Lemmy instances with different rules or vibes. Also, if the subscribe button says subscribe pending, you can ignore that.

Lemmy is amazing to be a "knight of new" as it were because the cross-talk, noise, bots, etc are just not there like they are in reddit. I've found communities I never would have known about.

Keep in mind Lemmy is very actively developed. If you do end up staying with Lemmy consider tossing a few dollars to the devs. I've always found the devs courteous and approachable when I've encountered a bug.

You're good. Being a smaller engine though, I wouldn't go much past that.

Did your computer lose its bios settings lately? Check to see if it's set to ahci and not raid if using a single, non-raid disk.

Good luck

Reminds me of a comment I once came across in a work application's code: "This function took forever to write correctly. It was hard work. I didn't document it. Figure it out."

Of course the variables were not defined properly and were named esoterically.

I figured we're not going to have much choice in the future. We'll be driving cars under End User License Agreements that already send tons and tons of data about us back to the manufacturers.

I have zero desire to own an Internet-connected car wherein I can't "own" it without abiding by the rules set forth by the auto manufacturer. BMW recently killed their subscription seat heaters but who knows what Egon Smells is cooking up at Tesla.
