- Comment on Datacenters are becoming a target in warfare for the first time 4 days ago:
Who would have thought that all these shiny toys would be so reachable. The rich have parroted this shit and acted untouchable. Its nice to see their infrastructure getting a smack. It like boasting about a fancy watch then walking down the street and getting robbed by a junkie. Tale as old as time.
The innocents in all these countries, and the environments are the ones that suffer the consequence, but what will get noticed is that war hurts production and consumer behavior. Oil scarcity stops people going places, stops stuff hitting the shelves, even the simple mortals like us knew this but the warmongers at the top want to play.

It’s gonna have to be that way. I saw something here the other day saying they couldn’t check a parcel delivery without an app. Someone suggested emailing daily for an update. I aspire to be that petty.

I feel like I wanna walk away from the internet for my personal life.
The second problem is just how much has moved online for example processing documents (your passport etc) same as when you have issues there’s no number to ring the store.
So it’s not like we are totally able to. We need to turn it back to how it was. They said use the internet because it made life efficient. We need to take that back.

Impressive
- Comment on I'm struggling to think of any online services for which I'd be willing to verify my identity or age 1 week ago:
The thing is usually for the bank account you have gone through rigourous checks already to open or maintain and account to prove your age. So face verification via an app is redundant.
We know it’s bull anyway but it’s at least a valid reason for no.
I’m the same as you. I’ll switch to browser and TBh if they piss me off enough I’ll start using cash
- Comment on Dynamic pricing could be coming to your local supermarket 1 week ago:
There isn’t really a choice in Aus. Take a look at how many supermarkets there are in Tassie and who owns them.
- Comment on Dynamic pricing could be coming to your local supermarket 1 week ago:
`Current-generation digital tags are cloud-connected and equipped with Bluetooth or NFC (short-range wireless technology used for contactless payments) to communicate with phones. A phone loaded with a shopping app can pass information to the tag about the user’s identity.
The tag then briefly displays a personalised price when the shopper taps the phone.
Mr Oyefeso said retailers could also pair ESL with facial recognition, so that “prices change depending on who is in the aisle or looking at the shelf”. `
Great hey, I think people will continue at woolies. The level of love for monopolies is crazy. But hey house prices are going up.

Same. I live small with little, I choose to recycle and not waste, I underconsume. I work to help others. Progressive and proud.
It pisses me off when those around me complain about the young, if the young can’t build lives they have nothing to conserve.

- Comment on Preserving The Web Is Not The Problem. Losing It Is. 3 weeks ago:
I know this seems like a simple childish comparison but it’s more that for a digital/virtual world we had the choice to build spaces and systems that afforded us real progression. We didn’t. The greedy got their hands on it.
Example - If I was building a church in the virtual world what key elements does it need? Who owns it? What can it give? How does it fund itself?
I know it’s more complex than this.
- Comment on Preserving The Web Is Not The Problem. Losing It Is. 3 weeks ago:
The core product at the bottom of this is information. People feel information should be free. Corps wanna charge for it. Govs and influentials wanna use it to push an agenda.
I kinda see it like the library. There’s info and there’s the library. Traditionally these were made open to walk in and the library system allowed you access to all the info, peacefully, privately.
Now it’s like library has rooms. Some locked. They are owned by gob$bites some are owned by greedy. They aa regularly steal the open info, change it, hide it, copy it, they hijack the librarians and paint the walls. As they have access to the librarian they can see what I look it.
The library is no fun no more.

It’s not a failure. It’s a strong piece. It’s sensible to know a good influential individual rarely writes their own content. You are the Bernie to an Elton.

- Comment on A new homelessness law in Wales is being called 'world-leading' 4 weeks ago:
There’s a lot of bolster in that article and not enough real facts of what they will be doing. Jist of it was “moving away from one that responds to crisis and towards one that is firmly focused on prevention”. Stating services can work together for 6 month before homelessness occurs. And the only mechanism I saw was ensuring care leavers are given priority on social housing.

- Comment on Most food animals are smarter than a baby. 4 weeks ago:
Most? Maybe some and what you are describing is cognitive and physical development. Given the lifespan of an animal and human it’s a bit of a bold thought.
Take a look at any house with multiple cats and humans and you should be able to get a good take on differing level of cognitive behaviour…this is not professional advice.
