On a whim I googled my city's library and "tools" and I found a non-profit society that specializes in lending of hand and power tools! This is incredible and I wouldn't have known about it without this prompt: thank you!

Outside of steam will be a case by case basis. I wouldn't expect a lot of luck, and it may require that you use a compatibility layer like Wine.

I'm not sure what the google maps export looks like, but no matter how it's formatted I'm sure that a simple Python script will be able to transfer the map markers over to openmaps. I'll look into making this if it doesn't already exist on GitHub. I'd like to transfer my stuff over too.

LineageOS works as well and you can get it running on more phones than Graphene; however, GrapheneOS is superior in terms of security

I genuinely find LLMs to be helpful with a wide variety of tasks. I have never once found an NFT to be useful.

Here's a random little example: I took a photo of my bookcase, with about 200 books on it, and had my LLM make a spreadsheet of all the books with their title, author, date of publication, cover art image, and estimated price. I then used this spreadsheet to mass upload them to Facebook Marketplace in bulk. In about 20 minutes I had over 200 facebook ads posted for every one of my books, which resulted in getting far more money than if I made one ad to sell all the books in bulk; I only had to do a quick review of the spreadsheet to fix any glaring issues. I also had it use some marketing psychology to write attractive descriptions for the ads.

I was a federal tax collector for 8 years. I estimate that I collected somewhere between $50 million to $100 million for my country. It didn't come from 10,000 seniors and single moms, it mostly came from millionaires, organized crime, and foreign directors laundering money and assets through domestic businesses.

If even one of these acts was passed I could see myself personally being able to collect several hundreds of millions more throughout a career. Taxing rich fucks makes me giddy.

What was the game plan here? Wisconsin produces a lot of cheese, so I'll make myself more relatable to the Wisconsin common man by wearing a fucking cheese hat?

This thing is so early 2000s; I kinda love it for that

Greenland, Ukraine, Canada: all of Trump's actions make sense if you consider that he wants to secure rare earth minerals for... someone

The thing that I appreciated most about Lemmy and my transition from Reddit is how cordial everyone has been. Even if a comment is taken out of context, people tend not to jump down each others throat and assume the worst, or make bad faith arguments full of fallacies. I've had legitimate back and forths with people, something that basically never happens on Reddit.
