Yes, if the other option is for you to play whack a mole, just defederate. People that follow that ideology can always go somewhere else, if they dislike you keeping this instance from being subjected to trolls and the like.

I am across the pond from you and as far as my knowledge goes laws are even more strict here.

I am not a medical professional, but I did accounting for a lot of them and from what I have seen them pay for the relevant authentication hardware and software it seems to be nightmarish to navigate.

While I am very pro data security and people being the owners of their own data, this goes the other way for me too. I own the data about my health, so I should be able to decide that I am fine with having it on my phone.

The medication rollback I mentioned would have been completely unnecessary if that option existed. It was Ibuprofen, which my SO shouldn’t due to an already stressed kidney. Now that I know that I can look out for it too, provided I am allowed to go with.

This sounds great in a bubble where it works.

Over here there is no standardised way of sharing such info between doctors/hospital/care givers. I have been through multiple GPs because some stopped working, some where to far away after a move and so on. I had to bring my data to them and good luck to me if I hadn’t gotten a copy of something when it happened. I had to stop medical personnel from giving me paracetamol (I have asthma and shouldn’t take any of that or anything like aspirin), the GP of my SO had to basically partly roll back a medication plan he had gotten from the hospital after being in the ER and those are mild cases where nothing did actually go horribly wrong. My SO got two incompatible medications about two years ago because the tool that crosschecks the database did not throw the relevant warning correctly. It messed with his brain chemistry a lot. His GP wrote the programs makers to have them remedy that asap, since it was pretty bad.

I actually use the health app medication reminder/tracking now and have seen that the app can theoretically store data from health professionals about me. It looks like it is completely unused in the country I am in and I can’t manually add in data at all. This would be super helpful in some cases where I could use it to quickly convey key points about my health, especially when I am not as present (high fever, accident or some such).

I know multiple people that do Skyrim on linux, at least one heavily modded. Outside of DyndoLOD not working right I can’t really remember any issues they had.

I use Sonar from Steelseries since I have one of their headsets. It does work for other headsets too, afaik it’s windows only though.

Any audiochannel mixing software that has an input (and output for microphone) should work. The main thing is to not let discord touch the device directly basically.

That is discord being sucky. Have had that problem a lot with various headphones, only thing that helped for me was using another software to manage things.

As for your actual question, my father has worked as a mechanical engineer for a few decades (recently retired) and after the major players did switch to only windows (they used unix in earlier days) he always had a dualboot system at home just for CAD work.

I was today old when I learned other people do the cheese thing too. I only like mild cheese and usually on bread, but sometimes I have the urge to just eat a bit like that.

When I was about 11 roughly two decades ago, on the first PC I got to actively use. I think it was OpenSuSe. My father had unix at work back then and saw no reason to use anything but a -ix system.

I liked it a lot, back then so was mainly reading things on the internet, no gaming needed.

Haven’t cycled back yet, since I play a few games that don’t run well on linux at all and use some proprietary software. I do find myself trying to use linux commands on windows from time to time, getting annoyed with it not working before remembering.

Is there a way to map temporary changes? Mainly thinking about road under construction and such, but also even more temporary ones like streets being blocked of due to large events.

I live in an area that was next to perfect when I first learned about OSM, so I had no real reason to contribute. I have seen their maps used by our public transport to show the way to/from stops (or even inside them on the particularly large ones).

This just reminded me that I can in fact contribute and I will check out the iOS options for doing so.

When I first started to learn touch typing I used some popular documents. It recommended to do that, especially for people with smaller hands. I eventually moved on from it, but I only use left shift since I can’t reach right shift in any sane manner without moving my whole hand.

I would if I had the time to get things off the ground and moderate in the beginning. I wouldn’t want to throw up an instance and then just leave it on its own.

I am not sure if my current server allows for instance creation, since I did not prioritise that when choosing it.

Most of those I am missing are also very picture heavy, now that I think about it. Like constant streams of pictures rather than text posts, which might not be the best for lemmy right now? I imagine it would increase load way faster than text posts do.

I will check through the community finder again later and see which topics might have gotten an instance in the mean time. It has been two weeks since I last checked.
