Betwixed and between

  • so, that's this. Americans changed the way colour is spelt, changed the meaning of billions, what a gallon is and are now changing how percentages work ? fucks sake!

  • Then google reader shut down, and I wanted to be able to do the same again, while also not being vulnerable to another shut down

    still using Feedly since the Reader shutdown and it's still going strong

  • yes but as they move the Overton window, the groyper behaviour is normalised and becomes the new median.

  • Just go to Mastodon for a twitter like micro blogging experience.

  • peri- menopause? IANAD and am a male

    I'd suggest seeing a doctor but you could be from the US and it might not be possible.

  • No realistic option to own a car,

    that would be a huge positive

  • heaps of Russians there. I think i remember reading a story about it

  • there was that dude on X said he'd forgive Trump if his daughters were raped by Trump

    not sure if his wife divorced him and got custody of the kids after that.. what a shit

  • Hugo Weaving's niece for anyone wondering

  • same with Ampol here in Australia

    (sorry for the archive link, it's paywalled)

    Soaring profits from turning crude oil into petrol and diesel have spurred a trebling in Ampol’s earnings in the first half, with the refiner describing trading conditions as “unique”.

  • Go harder, disconnect from the grid.

    in Australia if you can be connected to the grid and you do not, they charge you network maintenance fees anyway, yiu just dont pay for power.

    That said I lived completely off grid in the bush for a decade.

    I'm now on grid and i feed power into the grid from my roof top solar, last months bill was in credit for $45 (albeit I wasn't} home for the month) and I charge my ebike and ecar as well off solar when i am home. I have 8.6kW of grid feed solar on the roof (notional)

  • fucked around for decades, can't even be ass'd voting Green to move the Overton Window and do a little and we're now finding out. Hell, ONP has broad support and they literally deny climate change.

  • those (and heat) are reasons we moved to dairy country in semi rural Tassie, high rainfall, off a flood plain on a small hill and zero bushfire risk. My gf was a RFS Captain in Northern NSW and fought fires from August though November, full time (took time off work and I paid all the bills)

    she still suffers PTSD from it all (flashbacks watching the French and Spanish fires) and had zero pay, as pointed out to her by several coppers as they smirked at her during town evacuations, them being paid and she wasn't.

  • people protested, shit got violent.

  • micromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility @lemmy.world

  • same in Australia, its all grim in 9 out of 10 articles in the news over here with a few % points down

  • now do the Asoke area.

    My rule for a place in BKK is 200m from a train/BTS station

    Place I am at now is an easy walk to Bencjakitti Park, or Asoke BTS station but WAY more than that :)

  • hard to say, I don't use WhatsApp, i deleted it when FB bought it, yes, that long ago.

  • this I don't get, the muslims fir Trump are just because of their LGBTQ hate, it blinds them to anything else. Gay Republicans are inexplicable.

  • For them its about gay hate
