Let's chat about these SEVEN nuclear power plants the LNP want to build ...
  • You always know when the coalition is in opposition- that’s when you hear about their nuclear plans. In power, it’s crickets.

    It’s all noise, distracting us from other more important things which need our attention now

  • Advice on finding a partner?
  • Nah, I didnt explain myself well. You arent going just to chat to attractive people. I just see plenty of organic interactions whenever I go to a concert. You def have to enjoy the music and have a good time. Any social situation can be creepy or non creepy, the individual needs social awareness to understand the difference. I dont talk to people while the music is playing but inbetween songs or sets you can simply comment that was awesome. I agree with you about festivals, downtime is good to chat and chill

  • Advice on finding a partner?
  • Bro, go to as many concerts and gigs as you can. Take a single mate, its crazy watching how many random interactions take place.

    Dont be scared to move around and chat to people. No one cares if you are trying to find a new viewing spot and its a great convo starter. I wish I went to more when I was younger.

    But number 1 rule, earplugs

  • Keeping your data from Apple is harder than expected - Aalto University Finland
  • I appreciate this post from OP and didn’t see the last two apple privacy posts. It’s fine to highlight but its coming off a little condescending that this person tried to share content but you’ve already read a post… who cares

  • Australia chose AUKUS and now it faces the prospect of having no submarine capability for at least a decade
  • Yay, also means through AUKUS that we are America’s little bitch. Lets hope Taiwan stays just friends with China.

    Otherwise whoops, I guess all those military bases in Australia that the Americans use will become priority targets. Next minute I’m forced to hunt CCP tunnels in Taiwan wondering if I’m gonna be Vietconged

  • Your journey with Lemmy: When and why did you join? When did you leave and come back? Are you finally settled?
  • I moved over after the Reddit API with third party apps thing. Needed to voice my opinion with action

    Lemmy is great, I spend way less time with it, it’s a nicer and generally more respectful community, and I’ve learnt a lot more about computers/OSS.

    I realised that all my time with Reddit wasn’t actually teaching me anything valuable. I’m now more conscious of my internet usage

  • Meta Drops Quest 2 Price Below $200
  • What’s the name of this game?

    Also are there any good music visualisation programs out there?

    I use Spotify but there doesn’t seem to be anything really good for visualisation. I know there is a third party website that I can log in through but it never really worked for me

  • Are we all fucked?
  • Yeah cant believe I had to scroll this far down.

    Weed is like putting a sticker over the check engine light. It hides the issue/anxiety temporarily but by doing that consistently without dealing with the underlying issues the problem only gets worse.

    Something I do every work day is go to a patch of grass, put on calming music and just stare at the sky and clouds. Let your mind wander, it may bring up bad thoughts and feelings but its better to understand how your mind works. Dont look at your phone either, just disconnect and watch the world go by.

    I often think about early humans and their lives. Previously our ancestors had time to reflect and process thoughts, feelings and emotions. That is lost in our technological world and our obsession with consumption and distraction.

    These exposures and patterns are relatively new to the human mind. Develop behaviours that allow you to cope with the external stimulus

  • Travelling to the US - precautions?
  • Guessing you’ll take a burner phone? On arrival and Dep in Aus they can demand you open it and they can search anything. If you refuse they quarantine your phone for 14 days and prob use some Israeli software to access the contents

  • Israel-Hamas War: Piers Morgan vs Bassem Youssef On Palestine's Treatment | An unexpected interview - dark humor and eye opening

    Very unexpected interview. Usually I watch these because I like to hear a counter argument to my views. But this interview is fascinating! Such a heartfelt conversation, wrapped up in pain and dark humor

    What is your recommended rolled up mattress to buy (Australia)

    Hello,

    Looked up so many mattress reviews. To the point where I have no idea what to buy.

    Its going to be a double bed due to size restrictions of the room. Will sleep on it 1-2 nights per week. Want a good bed that will last for 10+yrs and won't sag.

    Looking at spending less than $1000. Any ideas or personal experiences? Please help!

    The lack of ads!

    Was just thinking how nice it is to be on social media and not be bombarded with ads!

    Its amazing how this is the first site in years that I dont need to install blockers or scroll through bs or be so cynical with what I read.

    Fellow Australians, rejoice in this little space we have from corporate bombardment
