While I agree in principle, the response from the CEO, was: only like 5% of people we give money to are racist Nazi bigots “controversial”, let’s agree to disagree and move on.
Which is massive narcissitic, non-empathic behaviour. It’s giving me less “you don’t matter because soon you’ll be dead”-vibes and more “I am literally unable to understand your concerns and empathise with you”-vibe, which to me personally is much more damning.
To anyone curious how it sounds, I found this ABC segment about the sounds. Rather underwhelming, but cute. Sounds start like halfway in.
I switched to /e/ a while ago, they have a feature called advanced privacy. commercial Lemmy clients like Connect and Raccoon have trackers embedded and are blocked automagically. ^I use Jerboa btw^
Might be - on the other hand, /e/ already supports f-droid out of the box, so there may be a possibility just google play will be going away…
I do not think they are dumbasses. They understand very well that “pumping the brakes” can start negotiations with people who have infinite deep pockets and are willing to let them have a little extra so the infinitely deep pockets stay that way.
Self-enrichment is a powerful motivator.
Like Nixon, when he helped privatize healthcare. Playing Dumb (and a little crazy) has been a schtick for republicans for 60 years. I wish there was a website with all the crazy shit republicans said and did in public, maybe I need to start one…
Plaster Lathe. My old nemesis. Probably with reed or peat for stabilization, so it explodes everywhere once you touch it… Wish you the best of Luck.
Also: napping is important at our age.
As someone who electrically renovated houses without beeing an electrician. If you find an electrician who is willing to work with you: do a full planning of the house. (What lines go where etc) ask them to go over this, and pay them for their time. If all goes well this will cost them an evening or three (depending how many flaws they find in your design). Do the wiring and drilling raw sockets yourself. Buy the top sockets wholesale, then have the electrician make a fixed price for installing sockets and wiring your fuse box , it will be much cheaper.

So secretions from alien udders are still a thing?
Great site!
I have a basilisk process running just so I can switch over and tinker a bit. Wish it was more connected to the rest of the system…
TIL,Thank you for dumping obscure biological knowledge!
I felt the same when I found out roughly 90-99 % of serotonin (predecessor) is produced by a certain type of gut bacteria. For some reason, finding the research was (is? Haven’t checked for a few years) for some reason non-obvious and difficult.
Now that I think about it, is there a wiki or something where we can share this knowledge? Your artefact would have helped a friend a few years ago…
Car centric infrastructure is a bitch.
True. Just a happy accident…
Well the AI thing just happens to increase demand for giga-lots more electricity, making fossil fueled / nuclear power plants a nescessity.
Oh my. So I was confused and hadn’t realised “outdoor” could also mean “feral”.
You fed the outdoor cat? Why?
I, too get blocked by certain sites. I think it’s a configuration thing, where it does not like my combination of uBlock/NoScript, even when I explicitly allow their scripts…
Uh yeah, was referring to a possible translation problem, or maybe not. Either way I chuckled and hopefully you did, too.
Well, maybe it got lost in translation, but maybe not… either way I chuckled.
plus it’s their CEO, or their community manager in their name, directly addressing the questioner and going “you don’t understand, under our big tent approach only 5% of people we give money to are controversial, let’s not address your concerns and move on.”
