Trying to make sure no one has your data (except them).

you can't see it, but having a ghost dance in front of you is evidence of a haunting

It didn't take me too long at all, maybe a week or so, granted I'm just using it for english. I've gotten a lot faster since then but about a week to get comfortable using it.

I can't go back to a regular phone keyboard anymore, it's just so much nicer to use, I would fat finger and have to correct so much on regular keyboards, but now it's almost never.

Hope you enjoy it!

Well I'm glad they all had fun dressing up and playing as leaders.

That sounds pretty silly, the real changes need to come from the ways we generate our electricity, not how individuals use it. I'm mostly just surprised activists managed to affect policy at all, though. But still that sounds more misguided than malicious.

helping developing countries by giving them predatory loans and putting them into more debt under the guise of fixing climate change is honestly just so on brand for the world right now.

It'd take something pretty wild to surprise me at this point.

I feel like you're just having imaginary arguments in your head with people who don't exist. This is a net win for everyone because it means less people suffering in extreme conditions and it also puts pressure on companies and people with money to slow climate change.

Maybe there's some weird people out there who want others to suffer but I doubt that's anywhere near representative of climate activists.

I had been trying out Linux and finally decided to install it to my ssd. The timing ended up such that I got the wifi issues on the new install but not my old one, and they basically make the OS unusable. I didn't realise any of this and am new so did heaps of reinstalling and searching trying to figure out what had gone wrong since it was all fine when it was installed on my HDD.

I finally found some forum posts and bug reports about this after wasting a day assuming it was something I'd done wrong 😂.

Gonna stick to lts kernel from now on I think. 6.6.6 seemed pretty fitting to me, even if it was 6.6.5 that actually broke it.

The bot has not done a great job here. It's a very long (but worthwhile) read. Kind of incredibly depressing also.

Judge really couldn't find a better phrase than 'miscarriage of justice'

That's a pretty good way to put it.

 

I rent an apartment in a big subdivided house, I live on the ground floor. An aircon unit just fell out of my upstairs neighbours window and landed just outside my own window. This was a bit alarming because not half an hour earlier I was poking my head out that window to water my plant (the plant is fine thankfully). There's a whole row of aircons sitting outside windows that could all also fall out which is also concerning.

I'm curious if there's anything I can do in the way of complaining to anyone about my landlord not providing a safe living environment?

I'm doubtful, but wanted to ask, just in case.
