Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many Lemmy users are non-technical background?
8·3 years agoI’m a real estate advisor so definitely non-technical though I do consider myself more familiar with the workings of computers and most other tech than the average person. I’m familiar with the Linux command line at a basic level and have run Linux on my PCs before. I’m also somewhat concerned about online privacy and frustrated over how capitalism is largely destroying the best things about the internet, something which seems to have accelerated as of late…
Holy moly that is the perfect doneness / color of beef. chef’s kiss

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK to play around with different sorting methods on your lemmy feed.English
20·3 years agoI seem to prefer top 6 hours personally. It gives you the most updated stuff but has a short enough time period so that you can still check it a few times a day and likely get different posts assuming you are subbed to a good number of active communities.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: You can use Libreddit instead of Reddit for more privacy and no ads (and no traffic/views for Reddit)
13·3 years agoThis, along with LibRedirect, is still great for when you are searching for something and a Reddit post comes up. Like the direction Reddit is taking or not (and I don’t which is largely why I’m here), there are still some genuinely informative and useful posts on the platform and if you’re not willing to completely foreclose on viewing those ever again this is a great way to do so.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Toyota claims battery with range of 745 miles, charges in 10 minutesEnglish
34·3 years agoWhile it’s true that Toyota is pretty far behind other car manufacturers in pure battery EVs, they still have the best hybrid drivetrain around by miles and they have great plug-in hybrids. I just got a RAV4 Prime and I love it. It has around 40-50 miles of electric only range and then switches to hybrid mode if you drain the battery before recharging where it gets 60 MPG and can go over 500 miles on a tank. Honestly my commute is way less than 50 miles so I drive electric around 90% of the time. The only time I kick in the gas engine is for longer trips and especially on road trips it’s nice not to have to worry about finding charging stations and waiting an hour or two for a charge.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the features you MOST miss from Reddit? (Bonus pts for tech dudes-- any idea if they're on the dev- hoz?)
2·3 years agoOh then I guess it must just be a limitation in Memmy because that’s what I use. Unless I’m just missing it?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Men who go to a barber/stylist, how much is your haircut and how much do you tip?English
2·3 years ago$30 (US) and I tip 30% but that’s mostly because I really like my barber and I know that he doesn’t make a ton of money.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your niche hobbies you’d like to share with other people?English
7·3 years agoLongboarding is a hobby I picked up a few years ago and it’s a ton of fun. Just riding along you feel like you’re floating over the pavement and the feeling is addicting. You can get e-boards if you’re not into pushing but I haven’t gone down that road yet since they seem heavier and more expensive. Also, most of them you can’t push and you have to rely on your battery and motor so if you run out m, you’re stuck. Some companies like the one I bought my board from (Bustin) make hybrid boards but they’re pricey.
