  • Thanks for the comment! I ended up getting another Echo Mini instead, because of some issues I read about firmware and updates making things worse sometimes. But I'll keep an eye on this one. I think there's even a custom firmware in the works by someone called partlypoetic_ on the 'other' site.

  • Thanks for the link to contact local TDs, OP! I've put it in the side bar there. Should have been there in the first place.

  • Worse than sociopaths sometimes. The Dark Triad is a personality cluster of narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy combined. Found in CEOs among other groups.

  • The sound does not contradict the image :) Both are cool.

  • I want to make a board game called "hide the priest". There could be a map of the world, and on each country some tokens representing priests. Tokens with a mark/dot are the priests that need to be relocated due to sexual offences. The player has to arrange the tokens, one move at a time, to ensure that offenders are not located in the country they committed their first offence in.

  • I appreciate the extra and thoughtful r context. I might check it out, thanks.

  • Poor Isreal. Why won't their victims just let them steal their land and rape their families in peace, eh? /s

  • Jesus, I thought he might be losing support because of all the death, destruction and rape. But no - it's not enough for them. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

  • Top Genocide suppliers:

    🇺🇸 41% (USA)

    🇮🇳 26% (India)

    🇷🇴 8% (Romania)

    🇹🇼 4% (Taiwan)

    🇨🇿 3% (Czech Republic)

    Some member states of the EU account for a total of nearly 19%

    🇪🇺 19% 

    And many others making up the list.

  • Would you say the title is a little sensationalist, considering what the documentary delivers? I haven’t seen it, but based on the summary above I wonder.

  • Good question OP. I never thought of this and I’m enjoying the answers.

    Briefly, my own answer would be: I would hope and expect that we can still communicate when essential using technology.

    Food textures are a problem for me. I’d expect a solar punk society to prioritise not being ableist (and minorities should be elevated too).So just as I can go to my local market now and get diced food marinated in a sauce I like, I’d expect that to continue as a service.

    The solar punk part might be how it’s done (emissions etc) and who gets paid. But I expect niceties such as our food prefs to still be available.

  • I actually forgot that this machine isn't M-series. Thanks for the reminder!

  • I was thinking of getting one in the future for similar reasons. My current laptop is an Intel Mac from 2011 running Ubuntu (Windowmaker session). It runs macOS and Ubuntu well enough, but it does run hot and the fans are loud.

    My only fear is that unlike previous MacBooks, when macOS expires the device could become e-waste rather than something I can install linux on.

  • Excellent illustration. Thanks!

  • He's absolutely right, and he communicates so very well. I was typing a counterpoint before he got to the end but now that I've listened in full I've changed my mind. I'll just leave it below with a strikethrough.

    Still, the massive gatherings are a serious arm shot to anyone who fears that the internet reflects reality. I think those gatherings are important, but the message should be clear: we cannot stop here, and the next step is ...

  • It so good. Communicates a lot.

  • I see. Keeping with the Netflix example, and given the difficulty people seem to have moving to alternatives, service providers seem to have refined the balance of reducing offerings while retaining users.

  • Good point. There's a subjective element to it too.

  • That's a good relative way to measure value. Never thought of that!

  • No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    If online services (such as Netflix) only ever raise their prices, does that mean they offer less and less value for money as time passes?

  • There are Mastodon clients for ancient hardware like Commodore computers (80s/90s), so I think old phones should be able to also use Mastodon/Piefed.
