After a move, my wife's computer has terrible internet speeds (Windows 10)
  • You could run a bootable Linux USB stick and test the internet from there. Then you could determine if the issue is software or hardware related. Live USB sticks require no installation and run separately from your installed OS on your internal storage. I.e., it wouldn't mess up her files at all.

  • What are some Redditisms that Lemmy needs to avoid?
  • I dont think redundant questions are the problem. But people's historically short responses on reddit definitely were. Responses like "have you tried googling it" or "the question has already been answered, try searching before you post" do nothing but ostracize the person asking and make communities unwelcoming. I would like to see Lemmy more understanding, as to encourage and attract novice individuals in communities they are interested in

  • Is it rude to borrow an unused power outlet without asking?
  • While I agree with the sentiment that it is technically stealing. No one should worry about charging their phone in public. Atleast in the region of the US I am located, it costs about 1-2 cents per year to charge your phone. So charging your phone for one sitting would be a miniscule amount of money. Just opening the door of the business and letting the conditioned air out would cost them more.

    Obviously cars are an entirely different situation since one charge can be several if not tens of dollars.

  • Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others?
  • I'm surprised I don't see more people recommending KeePassDX! I agree and feel much more secure knowing exactly where my encrypted password vault is.

    Also I recommend that people use Syncthing alongside KeePassDX so you can host your own cloudish environment to share the password vault between your devices. Keepass 2 is a great Windows/Linux application for interfacing with the .kbdx vault file format used by KeePassDX.
