Yeah, smart TV, never connect it to the 'net, get a used shield pro, ADB and side load F Launcher. No ads.

Shelds remote can control the TV volume and its connected via HDMI and the Shiekd Pro remote switches both off and on. I use Kodi, Prime, Smart Tube Next and a couple local TV apps.

Not what u want but that's where I am and it works well.

Be interested to see the responses

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

https://www.who.int/europe/news/item/04-01-2023-no-level-of-alcohol-consumption-is-safe-for-our-health

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

https://www.cancercouncil.com.au/1in3cancers/lifestyle-choices-and-cancer/red-meat-processed-meat-and-cancer/

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.

This is the most depressing thread I've read for some time.

It's horrific to read some of the posts twisting bad news and making out as though it's good news. It's like the posters are watching children in a sandpit playing, ignoring the monster flood thats about to wash them away but taking joy in their play. Wtf?

Professor Boyd is right https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/07/un-expert-human-rights-climate-crisis-economy

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

And after reading this thread, i am even more sure Rees is

https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/06/14/opinion/science-civilization-collapse-environment-limits

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.”

You both use Signal, problem solved.

I've never even browed the local feed on the Masro server I'm on.

Just pick a non mainstream one that has been around for a bit ?

I use Fedilab, Megalodon and Rodent.

I haven't found out how but that would be a kewl feature as I have wanted to a couple times. e.g how to browse all the communities on aussie.zone from my instance on slrpnk.net ?

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Thanks for that I have been considering a foldable and the creaae doesn't worry me but how's the durability ?

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.

 

I used to use YouTube Downloader but it seems to have shit the bed and isn't updated.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-free-android7-0-youtube-downloader-v8-1.2335450/

Wondering if anyone has any recommended Android app they use and a URL to download said app?

Australia has one of the lowest rates of people acknowledging that 'climate disruption' is caused by humans

Colour me not suprised

 

We know our planet’s ecosystem is breaking down…much of the destruction is irreparable. So, why haven’t things changed faster?

For denial doesn’t only amount to rejecting the evidence, he argues – it also consists of denying our role in the climate crisis; absolving ourselves through “carbon offsets, hybrid cars, local purchases, recycling”. And in this, far more of us are implicated.

In some ways, this argument might not seem all that new. Multiple authors have pointed out that green capitalism, not rightwing deniers of the crisis, is our greatest obstacle to properly confronting the problem. DeLay agrees. The difference is the lens he brings to it – using psychoanalysis to explain the mechanisms behind denial.

Central to their concerns are how the IPCC predictions rely on a tool called the Forest Fire Danger Index (FFDI), which does not capture the full potential of future fires in drought and heatwave conditions.

Bureau of Meteorology senior research scientist Mika Peace and independent study co-author Lachlan McCaw identified several variables missing from the IPCC report's fire predictions under climate change.

Over the past three years ... we've seen an even faster growth rate of accumulation of N2O into the atmosphere, almost 30 per cent faster than the previous decade.

Climate Central vice-president for science Andrew Pershing said the figures illustrated the "huge burden" the burning of fossil fuels imposed on people around the world

"Australia didn't have a particularly interesting summer this year, but in Africa it's just day after day after day of climate change just beating down on that continent."

 

In today's edition of no shit sherlock. So, solutions ? Stop flying... No? okay then, societal collapse it is then.
