I have a gigabit internet plan with Comcast , cost me $80 a month. And yes there is a 1.2tb data cap each month. Every 50gb that you go over, you are automatically charged an additional $10. Oh I’ll just choose another ISP…nope Comcast is the only option in my town. Not unless I want 5G cell Internet or satellite which is not super reliable or fast.

Yes SearXNG is awesome. You can even self host your own instance for added security/privacy. I have my own instance running on a free tier Oracle cloud 1core/1GB ram and it works great.

The Dreamcast version of Ep1 Racer has better graphics, cutscenes, and hacks to get 60fps. Redream works on Linux

Pittsburgh!!

I’ve tried a couple different KDE distros and settled on Fedora 40 KDE spin. It seems to be the most complete KDE experience without all of the Canonical/snap bloat. It works great on my Thinkpad. Also runs decent on my gaming desktop using the latest Nvidia beta driver - I used to get stutters and artifacts in games/steam/plex and now with the beta driver those apps run fine

I hope they don’t roll this out to Tmobile Prepaid. I don’t really trust Tmobile with my bank account information.

Paying over $100 each month on cell plans is crazy. If all you use is talk, text, and some data, Connect by Tmobile Prepaid has $15 plan with 3.5GB per month

Yes, I just made the switch to a closer instance yesterday. So much faster. I was on lemmy.world for the past few weeks but then I realized the server is hosted in Europe and I was getting 144ms ping from US east coast. This new instance I’m on, I’m getting 22ms ping.

You can test latency yourself from cmd by typing “ping lemmy.world” for example
