Technology@lemmy.world•I visited Meta's metaverse on the day it was supposed to shut down. I ended up in a horribly designed car park with no cars, for a restaurant that can sell no foodEnglish

1 dayI tried Kagi for a month. Several times I got “we couldn’t find what you were looking for” and the limit of 300 searches a month, even if I’m not going to hit that I FELT limited. I wanted to like it but it’s not for me.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Over what topic has someone argued with you the most on social media?English
2 daysI don’t remember exactly what it was that I said that I got absolutely dog piled on and told I was wrong repeatedly but it had something to do with fire hydrants. 30+ replies telling me I was wrong and stupid and didn’t know what I was talking about.
For the record, I work in water and fire hydrants are very much part of my work. But, a bunch of random people on reddit definitely know better than me. 🤷♀️

2 daysWindows decided to delete all my documents and files 2 weeks ago. Even though I removed them from one drive, windows put them all back in. So when their one drive failed. I lost everything. Like every icon on my desktop too. Thank god i had just backed up a couple weeks before so I didn’t lose much.
I was so pissed though that I immediately installed Linux Mint. Haven’t looked back.

5 daysDude I was playing Grounded (the original not the second) last week and my computer was so hot it was insane. I used to play that on my 6 year old laptop with no issues 3 year old gaming desktop shouldn’t struggle. In fact about a year ago it didn’t struggle. At all. Windows is just garbage.

5 daysWindows deleted all my files that weren’t even in one drive this week when one drive had a melt down and killed itself. I stared in disbelief, thanked the heavens I just backed all that shit up recently, laughed, and installed Linux. Didn’t even bother to see if I could recover anything. I’ve been meaning to switch for a long time and just haven’t. Windows made it pretty fucking easy.
Lol hi it’s me

9 daysIt’s funny because my town just posted an article saying a bunch of people got scammed by fake ones already.






I think the thread was region specific but this was a long time ago so I could be misremembering.
