Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People with touchscreen laptops, how often do you use the touchscreen features?
2·vor 6 Tagenergonomically its terrible. initially got it to work on some touchscreen code, but hardly used it for that and never for anything else. except when my battery swelled up and made the touchpad stop working for a while.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The US auto industry is in big trouble. China now makes 75 percent of all electric vehicles sold anywhere on earth. US automakers make around 5 percent.

1·vor 15 TagenI bought one used and it had a messed up USB port, which became unusable over time. The other got bricked after a LineageOS update. Bootloader inaccessible. I tried taking it apart to get the usb port out of it for the other phone but botched the job, which is incredibly delicate considering the back of the phone is glass. Turns out you can access the bootloader if you wait until the battery goes completely to zero. So I could probably get that phone going again if I don’t care that it doesn’t have a back anymore.
What’s cool is we’ll soon be propping these shitbags up with tax money, so the whole thing doesn’t go bankrupt.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Musicians: what's your experience with multiple instruments?
4·vor 16 TagenMain is guitar.
Fiddle, its less effort to play notes quickly, but the technique is tricky. At first its like whack-a-mole: if I think about my bow, my left hand goes out of pitch. Think about the left hand, the bow gets wonky. It takes a long time to get things to be more automatic so you can concentrate on the tune, or more advanced techniques like vibrato. Also, the fiddle is really loud and its right there next to your ear. I use an earplug.

2·vor 17 Tageni have two oneplus 6 phones right now, and two more that are broken. One working one has android, the other will get lineageos. when lineage is stable might migrate the android one to nixos. Nixos is pretty obscure but it helps to have people banging on distros and filing bugs.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•What platforms do you use or would recommend for collectives? Ideally - notes, documents, random files, calendars, task lists in one place.
14·vor 19 Tagenmy org uses Nextcloud. Its possible to set up folders that are read-only. We have a ‘secretary’ folder and a ‘file drop’ folder. The secretary is read-only except for the current secretary. The file drop any user can put files in, but only the secretary can edit or delete them.
We drop files (like signed contracts) into the ‘file drop’, and the secretary (a person!) moves them into the secretary folder which is visible to all users, but read only.
