Why openSUSE? in c/linux@programming.dev

MicroOS (and its flavors) update the same way Android does; as a full image

They don't. They update with regular packages. The updates are atomic though and are only applied at next boot, so there's less of a risk of weird breakages.

    • Germany Has Too Many Solar Panels, and It's Pushed Energy Prices Negative in c/green@lemmy.ml
    [–] 1 point 2 years ago*

    I guess that depends. If the costs to invest in storage is cheaper long term than losing money from excess energy, then energy companies would lose less money and thus could offer cheaper prices. But it would definitely help decrease or get rid of negative prices.

    In isolation, it's very obviously a bad thing, because it makes solar less profitable and might slow down the switch to renewables.

    In a wider context, it can still be seen as a god thing as it means there has been a significant pivot to solar already and luckily it's also a very solvable problem. There just needs to be more energy storage.

    "They only "earn" that monopoly because ostensibly they have been authorized democratically by the people."

    Well, that might be the social framework fir a democracy. But we are talking about Hungary here.

    • Germany legalises cannabis, but makes it hard to buy in c/europe@feddit.de
    [–] 2 points 2 years ago

    The law does make sense, if you put it into practice. In practice the dry weight amounts will probably just be checked on the street. Checking your home will require a warrant which isn't easy to come by, so they're not gonna bother about cases where it might be three or four plants or this or that many grams.

    Well, who's gonna pay for your medical care when you inevitably develop drug problems/health issues. So in a socialized healthcare system, you are harming others with it.

    (And not offering treatment or making the patient pay for it which they often won't be able to, would be very inhumane imo)

    [Feature Request] Search via Instance X/universal search (feddit.de)
     

    (Hoping this post will finally make it throug now that federation issues are fixed) One of the main pain points of lemmy imo is that it is hard to find/be aware of communities your instance hasn't been connected to. In my previous app, Liftoff, I was kind of able to get around that by quickly switching to the default mode (basically guest mode for lemmy.world) and search for communities via lemmy.world, as that is one of the biggest and most well connected instances, and then subscribe via my regular account.

    I wonder if there could be a way to implement something like that in Voyager. Voyager already has a guest mode that also defaults to lemmy.world, but it's not really easily accessible anymore once logged in. Being able to add a guest account to the switcher could be a quick way to make that a bit easier. Or maybe it would make more sense to add a "search via instance X" option to the search interface directly. There's also stuff like lemmyverse that aggregrates all instances and has an even more complete community search, but that would I assume be the most labour intensive way to implement a broader search feature like that.

    Verdacht auf Betrugsversuch bei Rentnerlaptop - wie vorgehen? (feddit.de)
     

    Moin, ich biete ab und an für Rentner etwas grundlegende Computerhfe an: Umgang mit Browser und Email, Drucker einrichten, unter Unständen Installation von FF mit uBlock, nervige Pop-Ups ausschalten, so etwas halt.

    Nun hat sich heute ein älterer Herr bei mir gemeldet, hauptsächlich mit den Use Case Internet surfen und Kartenspiele spielen ^^, der meinte er hatte schon einmal jemanden, der ihm geholfen hat, seinen neuen Laptop einzurichten und ihm alle möglichen tollen Sachen versprochen hat und sich irgendwann nicht mehr bei ihm gemeldet hat.

    Habe mir dabei erst einmal nichts weiter bei gedacht, vielleicht hatte der Typ ja einfach keinen Bock mehr, einem Senioren bei seinem Kleinkram zu helfen oder sonst etwas. Ist natürlich absolut möglich. Werde jetzt aber den Verdacht nicht los, dass es sich dabei vielleicht auch um einen Betrugsversuch gehandelt haben könnte. So nach dem Motto, installieren wir dem Ollen mal etwas Spyware und hoffen da Bankdaten o.ä. abgreifen zu können und geben dann irgendwann frustriert auf, wenn sich herausstellt, dass der Typ nur Solitär spielen möchte.

    Ich muss jetzt sagen, dass ich bis auf die Basics mit Windows gar nicht soo bewandert bin und schon seit einem Jahrzehnt ausschließlich Linux benutze. Von daher wollte ich fragen, was denn so die gängigsten Praktiken sind, um zu gucken, ob das System irgendwie kompromittiert sein könnte oder irgendetwas Suspektes aufgespielt wurde?
