should just use the Linux kernel and pit their version of the desktop on top of that.

So, lemmy would be illegal under this vision?

presumably hosted in Greece, yes…Hosted in Bumfuckistan, I can’t see how.

I read a blog post years ago by a trans dude about how seeing how little the winner of a smallest penis contest gave a shit helped him not give a shit about his own dick situation.

I’m convinced body dysmorphia is linked to a lack of some public nudity at beaches etc where you can see fat, short, flabby etc all on display and realize you’re kinda normal, our only interaction with nudity is the body types seen in porn.

Hopefully The Donald drops trousers so we can compare and contrast.

Indeed instead here in Australia we doubleed down, I havve zero respect for most Australian voters.

But then 1/2 of Europe is no better, look at their stance on Albanese, disgusting.

Everything ? I though MS Office woukd fail becase no one will want to close source their data files, i was using an Amiga at the time at home and the file format was standard and you chose the app to use

It started there and just progressed, Apple was a big one, people won’t buy into their closed wall’d shenanigans. Wrong again.

Messaging, what a debacle that has turned into. I assumed the system would be standardised and the fight would be over the front end for interoperability, wrong again.

Heck! Human meat tastes like pork

If the TV show Whitechapel taught me anything , it’s that human meat does NOT taste like pork.

Short version - there’s too many elderly people in China and not enough working age so the economy is suffering

More children is never the answer becase all that does is kick the can down the road, in 30 years time they’d have 3 billion and a shit ton more elderly, so wjat then doibke down and make even more kids ?

We can already see if we empower women and let them choose they’ll mostly have 0,1 or 2 kids. The only other solution is to force women to breed and have no choice (religious scum fuckery). Even the nordics with way better supoort for women and childbirth etc are still less then 2.1

We’re better off learning lessons from xenophobic counties like Sth Korea and Japan and seeing what solutions work in regards poulation degrowth, becase every country will eventually face this issue

This contlstat framing of less people on the planet as a bad thing is ridiculous, should we have 1000 billion and all stand shoulder to shoulder ? How tobdecide ? there is some sort of sustainable level, why not let those expert in the area advise us ? if you do that, the number is less then a billion. Classical and neo liberal Econonics should play no part in the debate.

it was one of the most important breakthroughs to date in fusion

What ? It was not really. Here’s a physicist discussing why.

https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2023/08/fusion-foolery/

In the end, the NIF fusion accomplishment might be called a stunt. Stunts explore what we can do (often after an insane amount of preparation, practice, and failure), rather than what’s practical. Stunts hide the pains and present an appearance of ease and grace, but it’s a show.

The “more energy out than laser energy in” equation masks several fundamental problems. NIF’s doped glass lasers have an efficiency of about 0.5 percent, meaning that they would have sucked in roughly 400 megajoules of energy from the grid in order to produce the 2.1 megajoules of light energy…

To be fair the hype machine was from the press not the scientists

Let’s pause to say: well done! Honestly. No sarcasm. What they did was ridiculously hard, and it finally worked after more than a decade of trying. They actually produced a significant number of fusion events! There’s no faking that, and I’d like to see you try. So let’s be clear that I’m not knocking the accomplishment in itself. My major beef is how we interpret the implications for society.

Kind of the opposite, it can be depressing recognising the lack of shits given.

Tesla is the most popular car purchase in Norway for eample and is extrmely popular here in Australia. People still use Reddit, X, iMessage, Facebook erc etc. My neighbour uses Stralink when we have a local 400/80 service available. 90% literally don’t give a shit.

They can never buy enough Hellfire missiles to stop an invasion by China, Russia or the US. They’d be better gifting them all to Ukraine.

Similarly here in Australia with our ridicluios Submarine purchase, this is chest thumping theatrics.

That aside, fuck Denmark and their MDGA views on immigrants. Their white Denmark policy is appalling.

You can’t even make a purchase on a credit card unless the US okays it.

Same post when Greenland’s taken presumably?
