Is it better to be named after a stupid meme instead?
- Comment on We should defederate lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago:
Fwiw, even reddit has the “quarantine” and “nsfw” flags so you aren’t seeing every sub with cookers and porn. If we can’t have that, I think we should be defederating from the servers filled with cookers so the new user experience is better.
- Comment on Controversial US commentator Candace Owens refused Australian visa for speaking tour 3 weeks ago:
She advocated for the US to invade us to save us from the tyrrany of COVID lockdowns. She can go get proper fucked.
- Comment on Honey 4 weeks ago:
The bees make more than they need. They’ll keep filling up cells till there’s no room for larvae then swarm. That takes a while but in a meantime, the honey sitting there attracts pests and predators that can harm the colony.

Iirc the pollinators aren’t the bloodsuckers.

JAQing off.

Iirc the slots got you rare pokemon and skills as prizes. Including one exclusive pokemon. So it’s actively detrimental since it conditions kids to accept gambling as normal.
- Comment on Instruments 2 months ago:
I did the same for the piano tbh. I was better at rhythm games than parsing sheet music so I’d practice and memorise pieces on something like Synthesia.
- Comment on Aussie Government announces Loot Box and Gambling content classification changes - Vooks 2 months ago:
Good. The next step would be taxing and regulating loot box rubbish like casinos. Published and audited odds, fixed payout ratios, etc.

The hypocrite removes videos and other content at the behest of his other authoritarian buddies. Like in Turkey. If you ask me, safety should’ve just blocked and banned twitter from Australia.
- Comment on Star Wars Outlaws Is A Crappy Masterpiece 2 months ago:
Confused? This has been an ongoing thing for the past 20 years. Ever since the corporate types deduced that a solid ip with pretty graphics got enough people to buy the game to recoup the cost. Sometimes not even the solid ip was needed if the cinematic was good enough.

A glass once in a while isn’t going to harm thier development and will teach them that alcohol is to be enjoyed responsibly in moderation. No one is saying get shitfaced with your kids.

I know that feeling. Though I went straight to my steam backlog so I traded one addiction for another.
- Comment on Anon is a samurai 5 months ago:
Pride in katana was during the Edo period when the samurai were relegated to being government officials and they used swords for duelling.
- Comment on Anon is a samurai 5 months ago:
They didn’t. Samurai were primarily mounted cavalry. They used bows and spears that required both hands. That modded should’ve made them armoured horse archers.

Must be the person who put hot glass under cold water and learned something about thermal differentials.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
They may not have to maximise profits but the shareholders will question every decision that doesn’t maximise profits so the result is the same. That’s why activist investors that push companies to more ethical behaviour are important.

Swords at dawn to first blood.

- Comment on Liberals will have difficulty forming government after final Tasmanian results 7 months ago:
Garland went off the deep end during covid. He’s still with the Greens on the environmental side but he’s a conspiracy cooker.
- Comment on Liberals will have difficulty forming government after final Tasmanian results 7 months ago:
They can form govt. They just don’t have guaranteed confidence and supply. Means Labor and/or the three indies (likely David or Craig) can extract concessions.
- Comment on Labor concedes Tasmanian election, leaving Liberals to negotiate with new crossbench 7 months ago:
Yes @Zagorath@aussie.zone, I was talking about state politics. The issue we have in Tas is that a not-insignificant portion of Labor’s union base is tied to the forestry sector. That’s at odds with the Green’s position to end all native forest logging. More recently we have the salmon farms issue where Labor is in favour of continuing while the Greens want it gone. Labor is too tied up with primary industries here and the foreign-owned primary industries aren’t interested in sustainability.
- Comment on Labor concedes Tasmanian election, leaving Liberals to negotiate with new crossbench 7 months ago:
Krisite Johnson, closer to the Greens, and David O’Byrne, ex-Labor leader who got done in by sexual harassment allegations.
- Comment on Labor concedes Tasmanian election, leaving Liberals to negotiate with new crossbench 7 months ago:
It’s been a thing since the disastrous Labor-Greens minority govt in 2010. The Greens held up Labor’s legislative agenda to get concessions around environmental issues. The end result was the utter bollocking by the Liberals in 2014. Suggesting Labor work with the Greens in Tas has been poison since.
- Comment on No clear winner from Tasmanian election as both parties turn to crossbench to negotiate minority government options 7 months ago:
Same, I was really hoping Eric Abetz wouldn’t get in though. He needed to go quietly into the good night.
- Comment on Samsung advertising new phone in my notifications 9 months ago:
Samsung pushed an app in an update that plastered ads for charities all over my lock screen. Disabled that shit and my next phone isn’t going to be a Samsung.
