- Comment on Do you have any “headcanons” (so to speak) about the Star Trek TNG characters? 19 hours ago:
Unpopular one incoming. The economy of Earth (for whatever the term “economy” is worth here) operates more similarly to an idealized form of capitalism than it does to communism. We see that private property canonically exists and can be acquired or relinquished through personal transactions. The Picards own Chateau Picard, Joseph Sisko owns Sisko’s restaurant, and they’re free to operate them as they see fit.
Those are not necessarily features of a capitalist mode of production.

- Comment on Reminder: 🎶 aussie.zone Lemmyvision 2 voting ends on Monday 🎧 3 weeks ago:
If I vote for just one song will it be included in the tally? It’s hard to tell if the ballot is satire or if you’d really like everyone to number every song.
I know I can just vote 1 for whatever song and then randomly number the rest if you’d like us to.

- Comment on Silent Hill f has been banned in Australia, and no one knows why 4 weeks ago:
Does anyone know of any game streamers who only stream the game they are playing and nothing else? No speaking or commentary, no video of themselves or their avatar, no chatbox etc? Just the game in full screen. Ta.

Nope. I think it was originally @deadcat@aussie.zone as they created the script but they haven’t been around in ages. I thought someone else took over, a brisbane regular perhaps, but maybe not.

lol.
Sorry, my fault. I temporarily repurposed the brains of sydbot and forgot to set it back up again. I’ll make sure sydbot is back next Monday.
- Comment on New community request - Amber Electric Users 1 month ago:
Sounds interesting. Are the people in these groups residential customers, business or other? I guess you could ask the quokka instance folk also if no one around here is keen. If you come up with a really cool name it might help your cause. Sadly I can’t think of one. What about powertoyou (I’m bad at this). I guess you want a community name that makes sense for search engines etc. good luck!

Centrelink is technically fairly new and came into existence in the late 90s. Before that we had the CES which wasn’t as draconian as Centrelink.
