I got this one big sticker in the centre

No, i don't like stickers or logos at all.

Picked out the thinkpad logo and filled the space with epoxy. Then took an angle grinder to the surface to rough it up and painted it. It still looked too nice so I painted it again and threw sand on the wet paint.

That’s really beautiful!

pixelfed doesn't seem to make it easy to subscribe from mastodon or another instance, unless i'm missing something

Pixelfed federates with Mastodon and Pleroma unless federation is off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

You have to search it in mastodon, right? like they don't have a subscribe button like peertube channels?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Yes, you have to search it if you come from other instance.

Just copy-paste the URL of the profile in the Pleroma/Mastodon search bar and use to work if you dont want to write the username and server manually.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

oh the whole url works? thats handy. thanks!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

I can ensure that it works in Pleroma but not sure at all about Mastodon. However, I think it should be.

Yeah sorry, I'm on the lemmur android app and couldn't figure out how to attach and insert an image here.

I don't hate stickers, but I prefer seeing my laptop vanilla, since I think it's a rather beautiful model.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago

the gnu head, tux, linux-inside and vim

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago

No stickers. ThinkPad and its red LED is enough.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago

My office's inventory control tag :/

I love stickers, I think they're fun. I've got a "Google jury nullification," a couple of tiny "Ski the East" stickers that I found in a dumpster, a "Darn Tough Vermont" (they make really good wool socks and have a big sale every autumn), a sticker for a tabletop gaming store I used to frequent, and a "Care not Cops" sticker over the Dell logo.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago

I used to have a lot of stickers. Until I ran out of them. I wish I had some now

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago

A 'Linux Inside' sticker. My desktop have the AMD Ryzen and the Noctua stickers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

I used too have a bunch of them until I got a new laptop which looks too nice for stickers

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago

Vans of the Wall, Destroy Surveillance, a "Hambi bleibt" sticker for advocating that german coal giant RWE does not to cut down more trees and a carrhart sticker

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago

I don't have any. I don't like it 😬

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago

I like Linkin Park logo, well their music too, but I don't really like stickers on devices. So I have it as ASCII art for my neofetch

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

I don't have stickers. I prefer my technology functional rather than pretty for one, and two, if the stickers get damaged from getting rubbed or scraped, they can leave an extremely annoying residue that makes the surface sticky, which I don't want to deal with.

Every time I vote I put the "I voted" sticker on my laptop. It's about half covered at this point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

How old is your laptop?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago

No stickers. Stickers make me stick out ;)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 children)

None, I keep my stuff as brand-free as possible.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 years ago

I use stickers to cover brand logos…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

On older laptop some programming language stickers. On a new one a rainbow paw and an oversized Arch Linux sticker
