Everybodies building rockets to get to the asteroids to mine them, but it’ll be Australian mining companies that do the mining.

Yeah, i think this is right. I know a few people i worked with in customer service who were wankers before, during and after.

Ah, no your argument is definitely on the same page then, but at different ends of that page.

So your disagreement goes to degree of breaking and ability for remedy.

Their argument is, the degree of targetting and surveillance has surpassed normal constraints while the ability for a remedy within the normal constraints of the social contract is no longer possible.

To take your example if a murderer is arrested and tried then order is restored and with it the social contract begins to heal. If the murderer however isn’t arrested and tried, then continues to murder, then what alternative remedies are available to be resorted to.

Its a breaking of social contract argument.

Its bad when everyone does it, the point isn’t whether its a good thing to do or not. The social contract only works if people largely adhere to the conditions. The argument is that these people have broken their part, therefore are no longer entitled to the benefits of the bargain. It is a loss for society in general, and the action is a proposed remedy (as a social cost) aiming to restore the social contract.

Cool, stalagmites but different got it! 😂 I’ll look him up. I’ve heard the name, author and book, never given them a proper look though.

Ooh cool! Will check out. I just went to the first to return in search. Actually second link, i went to wikipedia first.

Oh yeah, i had that same thought about Trantor. The books Are really great so far, i picked up this 4 in 1 book from the local vinnies/thrift store. Only problem with reading them like this is, i can tell i’ll get confused between these four, and which
events occured in which book.

Downvoted, because i hate the mental image you gave me.

Do you think its these? McDonald’s and Loop join forces on reusable coffee cup pilot

Interesting concept, i hope its gone well.

Lets do it. Lets count count count.

In a suburb about half an hours drive from me theres a pink house, like an almost barbie-pink. Its eye-catching, i love it for them. I bet theres a real character in that household!

In Western Australia we’ve been rolling out FOGO bins (Food and Garden organics waste), last summer i didn’t tie off one of the bags properly and there were maggots everywhere, spilling out of the bin.

I guess this could happen with general waste bins as well, so i suppose i’ve changed my attitude on the wrapping up waste to go in your bin idea. The only way i see around it is more home composting.

Its been two or three years now since i dipped out, the way you describe using the ‘don’t recommend’ and ‘not interested’ options seems to have a clearer result than when i last used them. If they’ve changed that functionality in the meantime i’m glad.

Yeah, some of peoples suggestions here are good. I liked that user who only looks at their subscribed channels tab, if i ever go back maybe i’d try that. Though the only youtuber i miss is adamsomething, one day i might jump onto his patreon.

A general strike is a mass work stoppage in which a substantial proportion of workers across multiple industries collectively cease https://museumofprotest.org/methods/general-strike/

Are we agreed? Fucken great.

I remember reading about a japanese bus strike where the bus drivers kept doing their job, but stopped collecting the money.

There are also examples from around the world where healthcare workers go to quite serious lengths to ensure delivery of service is maintained while a nurses/doctora strike is taken.

So a general strike could be an option, but isn’t necessary to send a message. In fact more targetted strikes that leave dialogue and service on the table shows the protestors acting in good faith, potentially opening different avenues to bridge the divide between childish-oligarchic-cunts (management/upper class), and the workers.

All i’m saying is theres more options than blowing up the system, and staged, measured, predictable responses to the others actions can be extrememely effective in showing the often ridiculous demands of the other side’s position.

Someone should run with their platform as, ‘Make Dog Rock Great Again!!’

They’d be named emperor of the Great Southern within weeks!

Oh cool, reminds me of the C&C underground missions in Red Alert, taking Tanya through the base. I always took so long with those missions, but i’m a natural turtler.

What are the two communities?

I only ask out of general interest as its such a specific number, if you’re not comfortable sharing, don’t feel obliged.

Cheers for the response. :)

Opened the issue on Lemmy’s github.

Since this post, i found out Sync for Lemmy has a very similar feature. It looks like what i envisioned, but i don’t know how well it works, i’ve only had time for a quick look.

No llm, just trying to explain the idea by giving as full a description as i can because I don’t have the technical lingo to describe it in a more concise way.

Ah fuck! I forgot to consider how many instances there are! I love this shit!

Okay toss that simple solution out the window.

Its an organisation problem. We could organise the instances into smaller thematic groupings, ie

• place based
• science based
• vegan
• communist
• no theme? For a group including ones like Lemmy.world.

Then, maybe the sub-lists might become more manageable.

I suppose a search function, or a favourites button could be added to help with looking up particular instances quicker multiple times.
