Please link the original source and post a way to bypass a paywall in the description.


They are a sovereign nation after all, like it or not.

Australian government:

Australia’s longstanding policy is to recognise States, not governments. The Australian Government does not extend or withhold formal recognition to new regimes. Australia will continue to judge the Taliban regime by its actions.

First - what’s a bookmarklet? :o




I thought I was about to find out the Tasmanian tiger was back. I got lizard instead. Great news.





What I’m saying is - even though it says “shut down”, it’s not doing a real shut down. Yes, you could fully let the battery run dry. But that takes 12 hours and you can’t do it once a day. Plus it ruins your battery’s capacity.


These days, I don’t think phones even turn off completely. Closing to sleeping. And only a portion of background services will stop and restart.


Your comment has been posted in the wrong thread as I’m sure you’re aware by now. FWIW, this is a known Lemmy bug.



There isn’t a cutoff in my experience. I’ve met more over 40 gamers that are chill to hang out with then under 25s.







I get you. I have no idea why there’s an ad for lemonade here. Putting that aside, I more posted that link for the spirit of it.


Please do not forget there’s a father and 19 year old son onboard. They, the crew, and everyone else do not deserve to die.


The US and India have already gotten closer in recent years due to the formation of the the Quad alliance. I imagine this is to further strengthen diplomatic ties?




Well Google is gutting ad blockers. So maybe there will be an extremely minor exodus yet.


It’s strange to consider the US system of prices and taxes from an Australian perspective. In Australia all prices must be displayed inclusive of any applicable taxes.


The Good News Effect
I saw a comment this morning lamenting the imbalance of positive and negative news content that we are given. There are scientific studies ([Negativity drives online news consumption](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-023-01538-4)) that show this type of content generates higher engagement. So whether news organisations are aware of their editorial direction or not, the clicks that drive the content they publish push them into this space. I am not suggesting we stop discussing the important serious issues of the day. Though, I will be actively trying to share more positive articles with you all going forward and I encourage you to join me.

You’re right. I’m going to start actively searching out positive stories to post.






Diablo impartial was fun for a few hours before you realised you needed to have a whale sized wallet to actually participate in any real content.



Interesting suggestion of btop. How does it compare to htop?




Any mechanical keyboards communities out there?


Don’t get people started on the use of SMS for 2FA…





Try adding the site to your home screen. It will actually add a progressive web app, which is surprising useful.


`Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a pre-plugged-in world, despite that being a world they largely never had a chance to occupy.`

If you’re looking for an entertaining film based on the true story of an NSA analyst leaking a document around Russia’s interference in US elections, check out Reality (2023).






Post content is one way I guess. Doesn’t help the administration. But it keeps the community lively.




It’s amazing. It has bypassed every news site paywall that I have tried.


It’s such an unbelievable story. Tragic for everyone touched by these events. And at the same time, so amazing that these brave kids managed to survive. I hope they get the ongoing support they deserve.

I wonder if they are being approached to sell the movie rights.


And put on a consumer hat next. How about an offical release for people that have funded a game. Be that a 1.0 release with promised features in later updates. Their model at the moment is confusing for anyone outside of they diehard fan base. But why should they care right? As long as their commercials work, that’s what it’s all about.


I mean, I wonder how much time is wasted refactoring with software and hardware that has been invented post the start of their development. Considering how long their development has been.

Plenty of articles on this topic out there but maybe this will help someone.

Does anyone realistically expect this game to come out?


Anyone have a good source for the patch notes for moment 3?
