Instructions unclear, we now have robot billionaires who are just as greedy
Meanwhile, my internal monologue is the most chaotic little shit possible, my rational brain thinks that I shouldn’t do as my monologue says because this lil bro is 100% gonna say ‘kick the baby’ or some shit
Yeah I’ve had this same issue on my ThinkPad 11e I recently retired, especially when tinkering with gnome extensions, it was a pain trying to get the window to fit even half of its content, and all the stuff I needed, the bottom panel which had category selectors, was completely out of reach.

With Netanyahu calling them antisemetic
Why do they always call justified responses antisemetic? Like I swear, due to this, I have heard a resurgence of people believing that “Hitler was right in his actions” and “he was trying to save us”, even though that’s clearly a stupid take but I digress.
Must say, quora is one hell of a drug
2007er here, I grew up with a CRT as the TV in our second living room, I’d occasionally watch stuff like Bob the builder and others, but since it was all on analog tv, channels started displaying lots of static, pretty much only like 2 or 3 channels were working last I saw.
Also we had that CRT TV until 2018, then chucked it in the store room, then threw it out in 2020, I kinda miss it, kinda don’t, idk.

The fact that whenever I open myGov on my iPad, and immediately see “connect your digital ID” makes me never want to do that. They also want me to use this ID, which is linked to my Medicare, citizenship, voting, etc., For social media and other accounts, which instantly rings alarm bells in my mind, the government and corpos knowing that I am exactly who I am, and that I am likely not able to disconnect it from myGov nor the social media platforms it could regulate.

Damn, dude looks like somebody that I used to know
After hearing about this proposal for three months now, I still believe it’s fucked up, especially the fact they don’t even know what method they’ll use, whether it’s digital IDs (which will take likely at least a decade to become mainstream), facial scanning (authoritarian as fuck), or some other shitty proposal.
There’s also the fact as a child I wasn’t able to go out very much, so social media was useful to me, especially to give me time with friends digitally, and as a time burner, which can be detrimental for a child in a similar place to have it all banned.
In all ways this happens, this will either be extremely authoritarian or would not be necessary as all people set their birth dates to their exact one every time without any variation, like magic, as if that shit would ever happen.
That’s literally so flatulent of you
Meanwhile in many melbournian shopping centres, you have to input your full legal name, date of birth, address, phone number, post code and email just to get a connection. I’d genuinely rather connect to some random person’s smart lightbulb in their house than use free wifi at shopping centres.
I have not once heard of legislation here that genuinely violated people’s rights other than Victoria’s snap lockdown of a group of apartment buildings during COVID, which got the government into a class action lawsuit.
Saying you value free speech, then saying that people who can violate others rights should also have freedom of speech in that regard, seems like you don’t know anything about what free speech is all about.
In Australia, and likely in most other countries, rights come with responsibilities. Our freedom of political communication, as outlined in the Victorian Human Rights Charter, doesn’t allow us to infringe on others’ rights to feel safe. Public expressions of neonazism can intimidate and threaten community safety, which limits that freedom. Just as we can’t harass or incite violence, any form of expression that undermines others’ rights to safety is restricted.
I myself also believe freedoms shouldn’t be tarnished by outrageous legislation, but I don’t believe this is an example of that, as it protects other people’s rights more than the ones prosecuted.
Fuck it, I wanna be cryogenically frozen, if I can have the chance of living hundreds of years in the future, no matter how slim, I’d rather be prepared.
