Please someone make this surrealist by editing out the fire-breathing chihuahua

It might not be too long before animals evolve a rudimentary mechanism to filter microplastics by kayzeekayzee in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

I think chances are higher we all die, the microplastics get embedded in a layer of rock worldwide, and nature moves on without us. Evolution is way too slow to keep up with manmade horrors.

Replacing the Delta fan IS VERY worth it by kayzeekayzee in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

Ooh ouch. It was a pain in the ass to remove.

My advice: Look up a video of how the microsd latch mechanism works. This will help you understand how to unlatch it if you need to. Use a thin sewing needle or two to carefully push/pull the card out. It takes a little while and requires some patience.

Hi, I'm not a guy, but I think I can fill most of these roles for you

For Jellyfin? You really don't need much. A raspberry pi can run jellyfin if you don't have a transcoded format. My main server is only using a 6th gen i3, and Jellyfin runs perfectly for everything. Never tried going above 1080p though.

There's a more obvious explanation when you think about it by kayzeekayzee in c/tumblr@lemmy.world

Wait is that really how it works?

Finally a good reason to leave the internet

What's up, selfhosters? It's self hosting Sunday! by kayzeekayzee in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Another glorious day of not having to worry about my nice and stable Debian server. It runs on an old Dell thin client I got on ebay, which isn't much, but it gets the job done.

Where does the internet cable go? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

My house gets internet via a magical coax cable that is, I assume, connected to the rest of the world via my Internet Service Provider. This cable connects directly into my router, which links to all the devices in my home.

My question is: Where does this magic cable go?

Some followup questions: How long is the cable?

How does so much data go through a single-pin coax cable? Wouldn't it be better if there were more pins, like in a twinax configuration?

There are also other houses in my neighborhood. Are their cables connected to mine? Can their routers see the packets sent by my router, similar to ethernet?

How has your day been?
