Exactly. I can follow official guides but I'm a fairly experienced enthusiast. Official guides are just not written for non-techies. I never succeed by sending them to other people.

This is what people need. Slow guides with definitions of every single word explained gracefully

Hi there. My guide is currently hosted at beta.aesistril.com. I wrote some stuff but it's really hard to write every guide by myself.

My goal is to create a easy to follow guides for the average joe and compile every other guide into one web page. I want to be able to link this whenever a relative or a friend asks me how to get rid of x

Name and URL suggestions (under .aesistril.com subdomain) are welcome. I am currently using open source hardware icon because it looks cool

I am using the CGA color palette and I would appreciate if you don't use any other colors. Not a strict restriction though

Source code is here on GitHub. Pull requests, markdown guides, docx, txt, every type of contribution or constructive criticism is appreciated

Maybe this could be a positive thing for newbies since now mastodon instances can federate with Tumblr and Threads to become more viable

Or could it bring destruction? Just like what happened with XMPP and OpenID

Trains are awesome trains are beautiful trains trains trains❤️🚂🚋❤️❤️🚆❤️🚊. I get a throbbing erection just by seeing a tram. Imagine riding a metro oh god my horny ass would instantly cum the moment I step into the station. When I go home I play a Adam Something video about why c🤢rs (🤢🤮) suck ass and TRAAINS (❤️🚂❤️❤️🚂) are AWESOME and I masturbate to it for hours edging harder every time I see numbers of passengers trains can handle. How can a human being can know that trains are 989769379785% more efficient than c*rs and not instantly cum

Imagine being a train (❤️🚂🚋❤️❤️🚆🚇🚈🚊❤️) conductor 🥺😳🥺🥺. Sound of the train as you push the throttle handle filling your ears like the sound of a whore begging for you to go faster 😩💦💦. Pushing the throttle gently as you whisper dirty things to its microphone ❤️❤️❤️❤️ TRAIN TRAINS ARE AWESOME LIKE TRAIN TRAINS TRAINS

There are more general conversation posts than shitposts in [email protected] If you wanna discuss about something just post it on the appropriate discussion community, not in [email protected]

Half of the """fun""" stuff is extremely depressing. Can someone explain to me how an overused meme about "Big corporations are destroying our world, stealing our wealth and you can't do anything about it" is "fun"

I don't wanna sound like a dopamine addict or a "Commies ruined my Lemmy" type of guy because I'm really not. I would happily take part in these discussions if they were posted on !politics I just don't wanna get reminded of these things while I'm just lurking around and trying to empty my head

Only [email protected] knows how to post properly but even they suffer those same things and they are still not as great as r/196 from Reddit before it was closed

Again my complaints are not about the content, it's great but rather it's about how nothing is categorized properly. If I wanna have fun and laugh a bit I don't wanna get interrupted by doomer posts and if I wanna get serious and discuss something I want an actual discussion post and not the comment section of a meme

Check out Dearrow. It's a new extension from sponsorblock's developer which removes clickbaity thumbnails and replaces them with crowdsourced ones

I absolutely lost it the first time he called me a nerd for using Arch and straight up started doing Fedora elitism lmao

My brother is 12 and just like other people of his age he can't use a computer properly because he is only familiar with mobile devices and dumbed-down computers

I recently dual-booted Fedora KDE and Windows 10 on his laptop. Showed him Discovery and told him, "This is the app store. Everything you'll ever need is here, and if you can't find something just tell me and I'll add it there". I also set up bottles telling him "Your non-steam games are here". He installed Steam and other apps himself

I guess he is a better Linux user than Linus Sebastian since he installed Steam without breaking his OS...

The tech support questions and stuff like "Can you install this for me?" or "Is this a virus?" dropped to zero. He only asks me things like "What was the name of PowerPoint for Linux" once in a while

After a week I have hardly ever seen my brother use Windows. He says Fedora is "like iOS" and he absolutely loved it

I use Arch and he keeps telling me "Why are you doing that nerdy terminal stuff just use Fedora". He also keeps explaining to me why Fedora better than my "nerd OS"

Open source developer and Linux enthusiast here. Although cluttered, Android's home directory is fairly simple to understand

The nightmare begins when you take a look at the root filesystem.

One time I was trying to port an OS to my phone and I had to figure out the Android init system. Went to source.android.com and what. the. fuck. Just as a side-by-side comparison:

Linux boot sequence: Android boot sequence (unmodded, SIMPLE):

There are so many wrong things about it like why are there 11, 12 places to put programs (/system/bin, /bin, /usr/bin /system/usr/bin, /sbin, /system/usr/share/bin...)

Why the fuck drivers are scattered around folders instead of just /lib/modules

Why is the home directory /storage/emulated/0/ instead of just /home/0/ (also why the user is named "0")

Where the fuck is everything???

God (Linus Torvalds) forgive me but even Windows is better than that shit
