I want a compact mini laptop(netbook style) in 2026. Suggestions? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] bert@lemmy.monster 1 points 4 days ago

I agree! I had really high hopes for it. I certainly dont regret supporting a small Kickstarter but it sure is a bummer that the device isn't very usable

Pretty sure it has the NXP i.MX8M Plus module.

I kept seeing the MNT Pocket Reform suggested so i ended up picking one up (down votes to Crowdsupply for taking three weeks to even acknowledge my order).

This thing is not even worth half the sticker price. It crawls just trying to boot the OS and the trackball is not smooth (both hardware and software) at all.

I don't use it for anything at this point, so I overpaid for a pretty looking paperweight. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Giant '86 47' found marked in the grass on the National Mall in c/news@lemmy.world

Solid reporting in that final paragraph.

National Park Service workers were seen roping off the area Thursday afternoon, and National Guard members appeared to be directing the public away from the grass. National Park Service workers were seen later roping off the area.

Hmm, maybe I need to take another look through my settings (or perhaps I didn't clearly enunciate my issue), because when I click a thumbnail in my main feed it opens the link, rather than a larger version of the image.

I miss Sync for that singular feature of press+~~hole~~hold on a thumbnail in the feed to show a full size image of said thumbnail.

Same here, though I do have one thing I miss from Sync: press+hold on an image in feed to make it full screen. Happen to know if there is a voyager setting to enable this functionality?

That seems to have done the trick. Thank you!

Thank you, all! No luck with any of these troubleshooting tips but it is good to know that I am not alone in my need to dismiss notifications.

Red dot on the settings icon (lemmy.monster)
 

Since the recent update I have had a red dot with a number 1 in it on top of my settings icon, as if to indicate a new feature or something. After looking through most of the options, the dot persists. Any ideas as to which menu I need to look into in order to clear the dot?

Palworld ditches PokΓ©ball-style summoning mechanic amid Nintendo legal battle in c/games@sh.itjust.works
[–] bert@lemmy.monster 58 points 2 years ago (3 children)

the lawsuit is targeting three patents in particular. These primarily cover throwing an object in a specific direction to either summon a battle character or to capture a creature in the field

Better watch out, Ghostbusters. Your ghost trap might be next.

Pictrs permission error after migrating to new hardware (lemmy.monster)
 

After a migration to new hardware, I am receiving the following permissions error from Pict-rs.

The old hardware was using 991:991 and I did not catch it until after first run and the problem now persists after a chown -R 991:991 volumes/pictrs.

Can I salvage things? I'm not worried about saving any Pict-rs data, so I'd even go for some guidance as to the possibility of "resetting" Pict-rs.
