I can’t be assed getting off LMDE, downloaded POP with thoughts of giving it a go but found I can’t be assed getting off LMDE.

Howled a gail, wind rain and overcast all night here in NE Tassie. No gail anymore still over cast and rain.

No aurora to be seen

Yea and yes, are you a paedophile ? Think of the children! /s

Let’s hope so but alas probably not.

Of course we do, where on earth did you get that idea from?

Well, it’s so obvious it’s difficult to understand why you think it’s not ?

They vote and live their life eating the future their kids will inherit and seemingly doing their very best to ensure the biospheres nearly unlivable and society collapses. All people with kids ? no but 80% would be my estimate and its especially bizzare for people with kids.

I find it mostly beyond my ability to grasp but then that’s the case for a plethora of things; vaccince denial, climate science denial, flat earthers, religion etal

Rees bluntly states, “the human enterprise is effectively subsuming the ecosphere” and “wide-spread societal collapse cannot be averted — collapse is not a problem to be solved, but rather the final stage of a cycle to be endured.”

Outgoing special rapporteur David Boyd says ‘there’s something wrong with our brains that we can’t understand how grave this is’

"In relation to the Bonn IPCC meeting 2022, “Because fossil fuel emissions have been allowed to increase, it’s manifestly the greatest evil ever imaginable” -Dr. Peter Carter (20 June 2022)

What sentiment ? That reddit is a toxic, centralised, commercial shit hole loke Twitter etal ?

The Australian Pavillion was a fantastic hub last year for interesting and important conversations regarding climate change

Like why is hypocrisy the backbone of all climate talks ? Why are we a nation of climate deniers ? Perhaps a stand with sack cloth and ash for all attmedees to stand in and be caned and berbakky disparaged becase of our inaction ?

Imagine flying across the world to a conference about lowering carbon emissions…it’s like beating your partner on the way to a domestic violence conference. The assumption was it is a conference about how to stop domestic violence, or in this case climate change, not make it worse.

Emissions are going up. We already know what needs to be done; ban flying, ban private car ownership, build out public and alternate transport, ban land learing, ban urban sprawl, ban meat eating pet ownership, ban all advertising and crimalise being a billionare and thats the easy low hanging fruit before the harder choices need to be made but apparently riding a bicycle to the park to read a book, instead of flying to Bali to do the same and haveing a livable biosphere, is just too much to ask

Mint has a bigger install led base for gaming then Bazzite (fedora based) looking at the Steam stats.

I use LMDE

We lived off grid in the bush here in Australia on Northern NSW for a decade with a 2kW solar system and batteries, never had an issue, ran everything (computer, kettle, microwave, welder, induction cooktop etc) except for the oven. We left in 2020 because of climate chanhe making bushfires worse and have now moved to Tasmania, off a flood plain, 270m ASL, and zero bush fire risk.

We now have a small cottage on a hectare, on the edge of small village, we have 8kW solar here (so far south solar in winter is an issue) , the excess goes into the grid for which we are paid a small amount and we now have an ecar we need for very occasioanl use (mostly use our ebikes amd walk) , all charged off solar.

Calling bullshit on this oft repeated lie, most people want Schrödinger’s action.

To have effective action, you’d need to ban flying, ban cruise ships, ban private cars , ban petrol lawn equipment, ban recreational offroad vehicles, and recreational boating, ban meat eating pets, ban advertising, ban large houses, make being a billionaire a criminal offence etc

What most people mean is, slap up a couple solar panels and wind turbines and be done with it, which makes it worse, like using an aspirin for li g cancer and saying you’ve taken action and the problems solved !

Climate change is a demand side and human behavioural issue. To know what people really want, look to voting results, the rest of it is just bullshit.

IMO, interestingly, John Kenneth Galbraith touched on some of the reasons why in his Essay “The culture of contentment”.

their audience.

Idiots ?

Mostly MP3s but I also use internet radio for streaming. I use the RadioDroid app from F Droid for that

Didn’t that dude doing the blackhole research end up getting pilloried for wearing a shirt his sister gifted him ?

No leader, no religion.

And knowing that, he was still elected . Voters knowing he represents the best of them.!

A bigly shutdown ?

Depending on who you ask, we passed it and are at 1.7C since pre-industrial era.

Whomever is saying that can be ignored, the 1.5 they are talking about is a rolling 30 year average. We’re at about 1.3 now

1.5 is horrific but likely survivable, 2c is horrific as tipping points will take over and we’ll be unable to stop going to 4C and beyond and collapsing civilisation.

It should never be near needs, only wants.

I blame voters, fuck 'em.

Bill’s ideas were tepid, not even radical. We get the country the majority of voters wanted, a transactional shit hole of a place based around geeed and entitlement

I vote Green and am disgusted by the callous choices of my fellow citizens make…

Fuck me, why am i even here :(
