Yeah I mean he’d only been president for like 2 years at that point, so it’s possible. Also possible it’s just fake, tho.
- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside Trump hotel in Las Vegas kills one 4 days ago:
The video is posted 6 years ago, so he wasn’t a former president yet
- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside Trump hotel in Las Vegas kills one 4 days ago:
Unfortunately he might (I make no claims as to the legitimacy of this video)
- Comment on $1K a month is a good deal 3 weeks ago:
we do pay a Medicare levy in our taxes but it’s nothing like USA costs
I was thinking about this too - the American monthly health insurance cost is significantly more than my entire monthly tax contribution, including the public healthcare contributions - and I’m not even “low income” by any definition.
- Comment on $1K a month is a good deal 3 weeks ago:
Wait American health insurance costs THAT MUCH? And then you have to pay MORE to use it? I’d been imagining a few hundred dollars p.m. and still thinking “that’s too much”. How is there anyone in your country who believes that public health could cost more than that?
You guys need serious help, I’m so sorry.
I have a medical treatment coming up that I’d thought was rather expensive, but after learning that it costs the same as 2 months of terrible medical cover in the USA I feel a bit better about it…

Were she not a great actress, she could have a promising career as a home-visit aged-care nurse.

- Comment on I'm a reasonably well educated human living on Earth. What's to stop me from replicating starship parts until I can make my own Starfleet? 2 months ago:
The Laws of Thermodynamics say you will always lose some energy to heat when energy is used to affect a change. I have to imagine this would be particularly so when energy is converted to matter since that’s very involved, but I’m not a physicist so I can’t confirm that.
Come to think of it, this means that industrial replication plants and shipyards would likely be incredibly hot places, due to the inevitable loss to heat in replicating massive components.

- Comment on Why is Google takeout so bitchy? 5 months ago:
Ah great, that could be why a bunch of my photos didn’t get metadata. I’ll look into that, thanks for the tip.
- Comment on Why is Google takeout so bitchy? 5 months ago:
Ooh, might look into that instead, actually. I always love a reason to write myself a little tool, but dealing with Google’s bull makes it much less appealing to me when existing tools can do it for me.
- Comment on Why is Google takeout so bitchy? 5 months ago:
Just gone through this whole process myself. My god does it suck. Another thing you’ll want to be aware of around Takeout with Google Photos is that the photo metadata isn’t attached as EXIF like with a normal service, but rather it’s given as an accompanying JSON file for each image file. I’m using Memories for Nextcloud, and it has a tool that can restore the EXIF metadata using those files, but it’s not exact and now I have about 1.5k images tagged as being from this year when they’re really from 2018 or before. I’m looking at writing my own tool to restore some of this metadata but it’s going to be a right pain in the ass.
