  • Yes, I thought this is excellent. I hope some of them will walk away with enough inside knowledge of how things work there to know how to sabotage/cripple the company in some way/s later.

  • True, canned fish with rice and chickpeas could go a long way! But if civ truly collapses, all of them would become extremely hard to come by... So you'd best start hoarding now... getting your solar setup in order... Etc.

  • Dang. This is such a great summary of what's been happening that I will copy this for all future political discussions I have with anyone.

    And attribute @orclev@lemmy.world, obviously.

    Is that like, an abbreviated reference to orcs levitating or something?

  • Phones are possibly the biggest technological game changer in the world. They have so supercharged so many aspects of society and economy while bringing down so many others.

  • You can coordinate splits with Costco members.

    But beware, Aldi's Greek yogurt (for example) is actually cheaper than Costco's, $/oz (at least when I last compared). Costco is not always cheaper; if you really wanna save, you have to do the math relative to what local stores are available.

  • Can NewPipe not play live videos? PipePipe can.

    Why do you need more than a good podcast? That makes me feel like you haven't come across a solid podcast. Just having gripping episodes should be enough to keep you from your phone once you're moving.

  • You cannot prepare for both; it'd take too much time and energy to focus on one path and diversifying your efforts would lead to either one failing even worse.

    I think commonplace civilians like you and I have probably no chance. Solar is one thing. Water-sourcing and -filtering is entirely another. You also need lots of land and farmhand knowledge to grow food lasting beyond a year; winter would kill a lot. Even chickens, which could be a major source of sustenance otherwise, barely produce eggs during the winter.

    Our best bet is really a co-op.

  • Yeah, it's quite good! It's too bad that it's not cross-platform, but I think it performs best out of the open-source trifecta of Wox Launcher and Flow Launcher, all of which I've personally tried.

  • Dang, okay. Well, then, good, we have yet another reason against data centers. I just wanted to stay as objective as possible, but will check it out, thanks.

  • This is what Jack Dorsey's Bitchat was supposed to do: decentralized, Wi-Fi-optional chat via Bluetooth and mesh networks.

    Unfortunately, it's also vibe-coded by his Goose AI, so I don't put much stock into that... but it's certainly a creative idea that more people should be trying. I personally love Bluetooth and think it's horribly underused.

  • This is kinda funny because I'm getting into Fluent Search (Windows) and (trying to make) Hints (Linux) (work), so the company wouldn't be able to collect as much data on me if my workplace were to start doing this for any reason (though that's not the reason I'm trying these programs).

  • The people I know who are MAGA don't usually try to hide it... I wish they would...

  • I don't get how that stack of plates causes the first panel.

  • It's not gonna make them obsolete. It's gonna keep piling on technical debt from bad practices of which it's entirely unaware (not that it's ever "aware" of anything) while tricking dumb upper management, C-suite, and investors into thinking that it can render so many people obsolete, before it all crashes. "Pride comes before the fall."

  • I... I can't imagine this. I don't know why you would protest having synesthesia when none of us boring normies could picture any color at all. That's really intriguing...

  • Thanks, I've never heard of this before...

  • What about F?

  • Ah, yeah, I forgot about that... I had tried it on Winblows and couldn't get it to work, but maybe it'll be better on Linux! Thanks for the reminder.
