Meta will be asking for anus scans soon and people will sit their asshole on their phone and think nothing of it.

Kill and eat lots of seals, whales etc lot of energy per gram in fat !

Nice little chart from Zack Labe on Mastodon about Artic amplifcation. Alas Zack is one of NOAAs employees that was fired by DOGE.

Not sure how you post a Mastodon link on Lemmy.

Grab a 1 TB nvme, take the Widows one out, install the new SSD boot the USB thumbdrive, install Bazzite (or Mint) and off you go, that’s all I did. I’m running LMDE but not a big gamer, so the little I do play all works on Mint Debian Edition.

If it all gives you the shits after a time, just put the old SSD back in and boot back into Windows.

True but like Reddit shitting the bed every 8 months leads to waves of folks on Lemny, or Twaxter doing the same thing leading to Mastodon waves. This wikl be another wave but how many ? Maybe a few 1000 only I guess ? I left for Mint about 3 years ago (dual boot defaulting to Mint) then to LMDE 12 months ago.

As am Australian, do not trust us, we keep votong for politcans who are happy to use the no prowvacy dildo of consequence and use the CSAM/ terrorist trope to attack anyone against it.

I don’t really get the whole NAS thing i must admit. Most of what I read about what people are doing is enabling slacker family and friends ? (That’s not a critisism, just an observation)

I have a TV, a HDD connected on the router and Kodi on the Nvidia Shield Pro. Any music is stored on my phone, or streamed via Netradio

I very occasionally copy media across to my phone to watch and then… it sits there and I dont watch it.

My parter uses Kodi on the TV occasioanly.

I don’t stream anything aside from some YT occasionally (DIY etc)

I get people do endless shit with their NAS, or server but I’m am retired and don’t have the time

Books are managed via Calibre on a a Kobo.

We shouldn’t but we probably will. Australian voters have near zero support for climate change action aside from pearl clutching.

Like Matodon Piefed also steps outside ActivityPub to do stuff its own way, which is not a good thing IMO as you end up with fragmentation.

None the less, I am trailing piefed but find the Interstellar app annoying… so.

I have been using Interstellar for that reason, it sucks compared to Boost on Lemmy but hey, it works on Piefed (and Lemmy) but yeah, it sucks compartively as an App.

Based on how we vote, the articles headline seems unlikely.

What a fucking debacle

As a Greens voter I don’t think theres much more the Greens can do ? Albeit I’m open to suggestions.

As a long time Greens voter, their policy platfrom doesn’t sit with most voters (science and expert based mixed with kindness and inclusivety)

The issue is, if they morph to recgonise that’s not what people want, they will need to look into the abyss and become the abyss and turn into something truly ugly like Labour have done. Albanese literately says that in the AFR today.

All the downvotes, what’s wrong with my comment?

It’s a stupid as saying that Russia has shot down F16s in Ukraine therefore The US has no power to project.

Yes and no, i cam absolutely see how you get there though

I use triage to “cope”. Pare it away and for me the things that matter most are the enviorment and inequality.

Without the former nothing else matters becase there is no future possible with no liveable biosphere (anti car, anti growth, anti nation state, aethiest etc), without the latter, humanity doesn’t matter (some random person from Sudan is as important as my fellow “citizens”) , so i become interested in, read about, pay attention to and support those at the intersection of those two priorities

I long ago came to understand thats not how most people see the world bit that brings me some comfirt.

Well,Jaoan makes.sense.as.they are.in the otjer.birder with Russia…

Australia uaed to be closer to Europe, had French Mirage Jets, Leopard Tanks etc but then Howard moved us even further up America’s asshole and we have remained wedged there. Then Scomo fucked us with France so there is that.

Andrew Hastie is the evil in the wings,. good looking (not goofy looking like Dutton) and a creationist, anti science, ex-soldier. He’s the horror thats a perfect fit for modern day liberals.

What thet were originally about is literally in their name, Liberals… They lost that with John Howard and became the nasty party, so popular that their most repugnant policies were adopted by Labor, so where to go from there ?

Even Malcolm Fraser resigned his lifetime membership in disgust and sided with Sarah Hanson-Young.
