  • What do you find not great about mouse/keyboard GNOME? All the gestures I know have pretty simple mouse and keyboard equivalents. So far I just gesture three fingers up/down/left/right, which I can do on a keyboard with super/alt-super-left/alt-super-right or on a mouse with hot-corner/corner-click/corner-scroll. If there’s a gesture I’m missing out on please let me know, I always like to learn new tricks.

    I read it as pro-gyn-nova

    • Pro: as in professional/effective
    • Gyn: woman (from Proto-Indo-European *gwen), like in gynocology
    • Nova: new (in many romance languages)

    It rolls off the tongue and encapsulates three important aspects. I’m sure there are other readings of it too.








  • In these conversations I always get to an impasse because yeah, capitalism is very flawed and produces many horrible outcomes. But communism has failed to work at all (as far as I know). Last I spoke to a communist as passerby was asking for what my conversation partner thought was a example of true communism, to which the answer was “the very start of the Russian revolution”. I won’t pretend to be the most informed about history, and I know that there has been much interference from capitalist countries, but if communism were so clearly a better system would it not have stably worked at least once? I’m having a hard time understanding why that’s a better goal than the countries that seem to reign in capitalism with at least some success.






  • I’ve tried factory resetting the router, and have reinstalled the app several times. I think I’ve gotten, if not to the source, than further down the chain.

    1. Port Management requires cloud services, which is why it redirects me to the place where I can enable that.
    2. However when I try enabling it, it is “Unable to save settings.”
    3. I tried to “Restart entire network” which revealed that it is “Unable to communicate with your network at this time.”

    And that’s the core thing I don’t know how to get around. The app can’t actually interact with the network. That explains why restarting the network hasn’t fixed it in the past. I don’t understand how it could be an issue only I have though, since it happens regardless of reinstalling the app.




  • In my mind Lemmy had succeeded when it has communities for everything that I care about that are large enough to approximate the level of the activity I had on Reddit. Given how niche some of those communities are, that would require it to be one of the more prominent social medias.

    So yeah, there’s no need for it to become the next Facebook, but I would like it to become mainstream.
