  • Remember this guy? Why a 73 year old Jew had himself arrested in Brisbane

    Jump

  • Yeah reading his history of activism and standing up for human rights is inspiring.

  • Remember this guy? Why a 73 year old Jew had himself arrested in Brisbane

    Jump

  • He deliberately wore 2 items of clothing that he knew would lead to his arrest. He may not have literally arrested himself, but he definitely set himself up to be arrested.

  • Introducing two new admins: terraborra and MadPsyentist

    Jump

  • Hi everyone, I haven’t been as visibly active recently but I am still lurking around 👋

  • Expressions of interest to be a helping hand around here

    Jump

  • I’m willing to be an admin. Not currently using matrix but that’s easy to sort out.

  • Microsoft's Silent Lockout: Why WireGuard, VeraCrypt & Windscribe Can No Longer Update Windows Users

    Jump

  • My brother has or had now a drinking problem. Now he is asking for the worst tasting crap that he can take a cap full like an airplance bottle so his body whenever he thinks about it will remember

    Jump

  • Spot on. I tried to quit smoking once by switching to menthols, and telling myself that they’d be horrible enough to make me quit. It did not work. I just adjusted to the change and kept smoking for another two years.

  • Dad parking in all 108 spaces at his local Sainsbury's admits ‘I was bored'

    Jump

  • Legend.

  • Should e-scooters be allowed in cycle lanes?

    Jump

  • Most of the rules were already proposed and consulted on under the last government. Major difference is that all cyclists would have been able to use the footpath, not just children.

    Unfortunately, it was yet another piece of legislation that was ready to be passed which Labour just sat on.

  • One distro for the next five years?

    Jump

  • For a headless server: Ubuntu. Solid, reliable and stable for many years.

    For gaming: Pop OS looks promising now that cosmic has been released, however I’d probably stick with Fedora as it’s leading edge and has served me well so far.

  • Downtime for Lemmy.nz this Friday (again) to move to a new VPS

    Jump

  • Huh, those server specs are surprising. I think I have better than that for my home server.

    Thanks again for all the hard work Dave!

  • The state of Lemmy.nz - some updates and some questions for Lemmy.nz users

    Jump

  • In addition to no authoritarian leaning jurisdictions, I also wouldn’t want the server to be based in a country that has age verification laws that apply to hosting. Yes I have a vpn, but the point is I shouldn’t have to use it just to access what used to be freely available information.

    I stopped donating after we found out that we’d need to shift hosts but happy to start again.

  • Can anyone explain why?

    Jump

  • Because they’re weak.

    In all seriousness, income has stayed about the same in nominal terms, but the cost of living has gone way up even between millennials and gen z. So really income has gone down and booze is much more of a luxury.

  • What meditation/chill music do you put on to ground yourself?

    Jump

  • Older (i.e. 2000s and early 2010s) hypnotic techno. I do 30 mins of deep breathing exercises 3 times a day, while listening to it, to try and maintain a sense of calm throughout the day.

    Realise my music choice probably isn’t what most people would classify as “chill”. I mainly listen to electronic music so I find it easy to lose myself into the extremely repetitive percussion and melody.

  • First mechs of 2026, a star from the elusive but extremely popular and definitely not entirely made up Clan Poison Dart Frog

    Jump

  • It’s photos like these that make me want to get back into tabletop gaming. Awesome paint jobs!

    how was your first quarter of 21st century?

    Jump

  • It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness.

    In the last 25 years I’ve hit rock bottom and also experienced the happiest moments of my life. Can’t sum it up any better than Dickens.

  • Yeah that’s the thing, don’t want to spin up a 500w gaming pc just to watch stuff on plex

  • Exodus devs want you to know that despite Matthew McConaughey's AI deal, not a drop has been used in their game so far

    Jump

  • The article author seems to write this off as just another run of the mill sci-fi rpg, but I’m pretty excited for this. Peter F Hamilton is one of my favourite authors and he’s done the world building to support the narrative of the game.

    Going to be reading his tie-in novel over the xmas break and it seems to have got decent reader reviews so long as you like his style of writing.

  • Cheers, yeah I thought about crossposting to c/privacy. I also should have searched first as it seems like it’s pretty common thing to do for networked devices of all sorts.

    I’ll give it a go myself and do a write up for novices like myself if I succeed.
