Which is widely know but surprisingly well supported by a vast number of voters.

Thats a dark road to tread.
An example,
no alchol consumption is safe, so using your line of thinking you’d need to argue that anyone who partakes of alcohol at any anytime would fall under that line of thinking
Processed red meats simailary, especially those treated with nitrites, so those eating bacon, ham etc shouldn’t be entitled to public heath care under your reasoning
Or are those things ok becase you do them ?
On the upside, now you’ve excluded 95% of the population, public healthcare will be cheap :)
Contra to most peoples thinking, if you’re concerned about public healthcare costs, you should “encourage” obesiety and smoking, they all die early, most health care coats are associated with healthy people in their old age. See here

Adults are stupid and greedy, we all are.
Southern Hemisphere is a big place, I’m at 10C here in Tasmania where I live , in the middle of the day, a long way from scorching.
It would be nice if they used more specific language then “southern hemisphere”, which includes Antarctica.
Most of the growing US population centres are in places that are at the forefront of unsustainablity and climate change danger.
For the vast majorty, there’s just a complete lack of giving a fuck & zero real interest but just assuming things will be alright, no matter the evidence.
Another example, water issues and heat issues and it’s the second fastest growing place in the US. On another note, creating wealth is a proxy for destroying the biosphere and making an unlivable planet.
KYLE, Texas—People and businesses have flooded into Kyle, Texas, since the pandemic, making it the second-fastest-growing city in the U.S. The influx is creating wealth but also contributing to a big problem: Kyle is getting hotter and running low on water
But climate change can make living here brutal. Underground, the aquifer that Kyle relied on is shrinking. The city for three years now has had to buy water rights from nearby San Marcos to satisfy its growing population. Temperatures hit nearly 100 degrees before this summer even started, and drought conditions persist. People wear neck fans, limit outdoor time to early morning and nighttime, and keep their children inside.

No sane person would choose to move to Vegas. The heat and lack of water are ridiculous and it’s nothing but a giant monument to human stupidity and hubris… Yet here we are.

Outgoing special rapporteur David Boyd says ‘there’s something wrong with our brains that we can’t understand how grave this is’
Well most voters are entitled asshole that think a few solar panels and ecars is as much as can be expected and another bunch who think it’s all bullshit anyway.
That’s the vast majority. They Vote for the politcans who reflect that and its also why the Greens dont get enough votes to make substantive policy changes.

If the Government issues an order to remove a post that says “Don’t Get vaccinated and pray instead” vs “you called our President/King/Autocrat a cnut, so your post should be removed and your ID passed on so you can be prosecuted” are both having the govenrmt intervene, most sane people in democracies would be ok with the former but not the latter.
As an Australian I was NOT ok with the Australian governments esafety commissioner trying their stunt with Twitter. I find it doubly amazing the continued use of the service by any of our politicians , fcuk them. Set up a Mastodon instance and use that ffs.

The Australian Government issued a bunch of take down notices to Twitter and Musk said no
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-23/what-can-the-government-do-about-x/103752600
Musk decided to block them in Australian only which didn’t satisfy the Australian Government
He took them to court and the court sided with Twitter, (x)
https://variety.com/2024/digital/news/australian-court-elon-musk-x-freedom-of-speech-row-1236000561/
The complexity and contradictions were illustrated by Tim Begbie, the lawyer representing the eSafety Commissioner in court. He said that in other cases X had chosen of its own accord to remove content, but that it resisted the order from the Australian government.
“X says […] global removal is reasonable when X does it because X wants to do it, but it becomes unreasonable when it is told to do it by the laws of Australia,” Begbie told the court.
Bum gun now for 20 years after visiting SE Asia decades ago and relealising smearing shit around your ass with paper really was just fucking weird

Anything to avoid riding a bicycle huh?
The continued cluster fuck of killing the biosphere to save the planet. Hydros not even close to clean, or green and generates heaps of GHG emsisons from rotting veg.
Clean energy might help deal with emissions, but it does nothing to reverse deforestation, overfishing, soil depletion and mass extinction. A growth-obsessed economy powered by clean energy will still tip us into ecological disaster.” - Jason Hickel
2·1 month agoI jsut stream radio music in genres I like. There’s like a zillion different stations out there.
I use RadioDroid from F Droid.
??? No such App found is all I get. Do I need to add another repo to find it ?
Yeah but I’d be be out, hear a song, download it and then it’s on my playlist minutes later as an MP3.
Newpipe does M4A only AFAIK (recommended by another user)

That’s never worked for me. If I close FF and reopen its starts fresh with.noting open. If I close the OS, and restart only then does FF reopen all the tabs.
I am currently on LMDE but the same process happened when I was on Windows 10 and Linux Mint . I have the setting selected to restore previous open tabs but it’s just never worked across many years, many updates and multiple OS’s.
