Looking for an affordable way to file a T2 led me to native Linux tax software for Canadians, "myTaxExpress". Are there others? in c/personalfinancecanada@lemmy.ca
[–] Undearius@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

I know this isn't quite what you're asking for but I have heard of GenuTax for awhile, which is completely free and local

They have an OS survey to help prioritise development, it might be worth sending them some feedback to push for Linux compatibility.

Does the fediverse really have a civility problem and what can we do about it? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

I do like the idea of leaving the curation of content in the hands of the user.

I think the mentality should be more common, and the tools should make it easy, to filter out content the same way it's easy and common to follow a community/topic that adds to your feed.

Almost all social platforms have a method at the forefront to "see more content like this" but a lot don't have "see less of this", and if they do, it's a buried setting.

It'd be really interesting for mods and admins to get a list of users' exclude list, either of post keywords or user blocks, to see trends and stats on the content that people don't want to see.

Zeros are round like the wire so they can stack nicely.

Ones need to be put through the wire length-wise meaning they take up more space.

While that is using a bit of forced perspective, they are big dogs.

I knew someone with one and it could lick the dirty plates in the sink without having to jump on, or even reach over, the counter.

I think he weighed just over 200 pounds.

I assume I'd have the same problem with graphene.

There's a list of bank apps that work in Grapheme. You can check for yours here

I couldn't find any Google Pixel

They have 5 models listed for Google

The "Battery endurance in cycles" [...] never seems to exceed 15?

It's hundreds of cycles. So 1500 cycles.

Sublinks

Thank you! I have been trying to remember the name of "that other" link aggregator since I first heard about it two years ago.

I kept thinking about it and getting it confused with Substacks.

Wait, I thought it was the government that was putting the chemicals in the trails in the first place, and now their making their own actions illegal?

Liberux Nexx GNU/Linux smartphone starts crowdfunding! in c/linux@programming.dev

Yeah, this thing has comparable specs to my desktop computer with the price to match. When comparing to the PinePhone, this has 10x the RAM and 16x the storage.

In a time when so much stuff is unaffordable, maybe building an incredibly beefy phone as a startup doesn't seem like the best idea.

Which program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

We've got to install Microsoft Defender, Edge, and PowerShell on Ububtu so that the device will be flagged as compliant in Intune.

Thrive: An open-source evolution game inspired by Spore (revolutionarygamesstudio.com)

This entertaining game aims to be a scientifically accurate evolution game, starting off as a single-celled organism and growing into more complex organelles, competing against other organisms in the environment.

It is still in active development and later stages aren't fully fleshed out yet but the early stages can still provide a few hours of fun.

Comments appear highlighted with a box (lemmy.ca)
 

I noticed this odd behaviour a few days ago. It happens on desktop and mobile web pages. It seems to only be on this instance (lemmy.ca) because I don't see this when browsing other instances directly.

I can't see the UI version number at the bottom of the page. I'm using Firefox 114 on both desktop and Android phone.
