These aren't "feel good" stories, they're "we live in hell" stories. by pascal in c/aboringdystopia@lemmy.world

That's what I don't understand. Europe is capitalist like the US, never the less, such cruelty and greed from the employer are simply unheard of.

Swiss copyright law: what can and can’t I download? (www.digitec.ch)

submitted 10 months ago by pascal@lemm.ee to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

In some European countries, the authorities are taking rigorous action against film and music piracy. Even downloading a single file can lead to fines, criminal proceedings and warnings.

In Switzerland, the legal situation is somewhat different. Here, you can download or stream certain content from the internet without paying for it under certain circumstances.

Can IT confirm? by pascal in c/tumblr@lemmy.world

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 34 points 10 months ago

I like that my dishwasher tells me when it's done via app, and I can't live without my robot vacuum cleaner.

Still, they're on a separate vlan so if they get infected, the malware will look around like the John Travolta meme.

So, timeshift or NixOS? by pascal in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 63 points 10 months ago

LoL my current Gentoo system was installed like 12 years ago and moved on 5 different hardware platforms without a proper reinstall.

I have said myself to never peek in the /etc directory for any reason! 😅

It shouldn't matter if people work multiple jobs. The former VP of HR at Microsoft shares how to react to double dippers — 'get over it.' by pascal in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 31 points 10 months ago

Working multiple jobs is a part of the fabric of the working world

is this guy for real? is this a common thought in America?

Does it sound fucking dystopic only to me?!

Which communities did you subscribe?

Because my experience is a bit different, people here seem way more polarized with their opinion (which is always right) and angry at random stuff.

I think I never saw so many "landlords haters" in social media like in Lemmy...

line 32: found character that cannot start any token (lemm.ee)

submitted 11 months ago by pascal@lemm.ee to c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Today, I tried (again) to install lemmy on my linux server. I tried in the past but the documentation was so lacking that I only encountered errors after errors just following exactly every command.

Today I tried again, using the Docker method, I correctly downloaded all the files, but as soon as I run "docker compose up" I get the error "/lemmy/docker-compose.yml: yaml: line 32: found character that cannot start any token"

That's usually a common error if the yaml file contains TABs instead of spaces, but it's not the case here.

So, again I'm lost and I'm looking for someone here that can bring me some light on the issue, it would be very appreciated.

And the city would even place them at booths all over for the public's doxxing convenience by pascal in c/memes@lemmy.world

hey OP, you're so young you don't even know the difference between white pages and yellow pages!

Black student suspended over his hairstyle to be sent to an alternative education program by pascal in c/news@lemmy.world

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 65 points 11 months ago

I keep hearing America is the land of freedom and that Europe is way more racist than America.

This story would have never happened in Europe. Suspended because of a hairstyle, wtf.

55% of women say listening to Joe Rogan is a red flag by pascal in c/politics@lemmy.ml

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 35 points 1 year ago

It makes sense if you're part of half the population that is subjected by rules and laws that penalize you in some form written by the other non liberal half of the population, like those brilliant anti abortion laws, you start to grow unsympathetic towards those.

How many people actually dropped Reddit for Lemmy? by pascal in c/reddit@lemmy.ml

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 54 points 1 year ago

I stopped using Reddit on my phone, which was most of my Reddit time, but I still use it on my PC.

On mobile I exclusively browse Lemmy.

I would totally migrate completely to Lemmy, but the general audience here is a bit too... radicalised for me. Sometimes I just want to relax, read some interesting link and interact in the comments.

Is Linus Tech Tips “Stubby” Screwdriver Best? Let's Settle This! (www.youtube.com)

According to this third party reviewer, the LTT stubby is as good as the PB Swiss (considered one of the best tool makers and I agree) and also $20 cheaper.

Ah yes, news so US centric I can't even understand what's the point being made in the article, that's what I didn't miss from reddit.

Even the Swiss giant Digitec posted an article about the state of LTT (www.digitec.ch)

submitted 1 year ago by pascal@lemm.ee to c/linustechtips@lemmy.ml

5 comments fedilink

Digitec is considered the "Amazon of Switzerland", is the most popular online shop for technology with decent prices, but also often posts articles, reviews and previews. It helps since Amazon doesn't exist in Switzerland (Swiss people often buy from Amazon German or Amazon Italy).

I honestly didn't expect the LTT news to reach such mainstream news.

They have approximately now lost over 5000 subscribers which equates to about $25000 per month or $300000 per year in lost revenue.

What is something that sounds 100% false but is actually 100% true? by pascal in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] pascal@lemm.ee 32 points 1 year ago

Yes, sand in the desert and beaches is "too old", in other words, it's too smooth and can't hold material together. That's why Dubai is importing huge amounts of sand while being literally a city in the desert.

build lemmy (from scratch) on debian (lemm.ee)

submitted 1 year ago by pascal@lemm.ee to c/debian@lemmy.ml

2 comments fedilink

Hi, if you're trying to build lemmy from scratch, on debian (not ubuntu), and you're following this guide: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/from_scratch.html

There are a few corrections I would like to point you.

Install those two things before following the guide:

apt install sudo

Of course, 'sudo' is not installed by default on Debian, so I guess it would be a good idea to install it.

sudo apt install build-essential

This will install the 'cc' compiler needed by Rust.

sudo apt install protobuf-c-compiler protobuf-compiler

This is needed to compile opentelemetry-proto.
