Just don’t use electronic voting. Electronic voting is such a dumb idea.

Many thanks friend 😊

Uhhhh as a dumb dumb Ubuntu user, do I need to do anything other than update?

This is the Labor party bringing it in, so you can bet the legislation will just-barely-sort-of do what it says on the tin.

That’s what you get from centre-right governments…

You know what, the people are alright.

I hope people take that as a contract and when they inevitably do it again, sue the hell out of them.

Not that it’ll stop this phenomenon.

Get organised folks, join your local socialist orgs (provided they are sane and not Stalinists and don’t think China is socialist).

I want off this ride, and that’s only gonna happen if we get involved, all over the world.

And what do you suggest I do when every cinema I go to suffers from the same thing?

Then there should be a special setting for you. The rest of us normies hate the current state of affairs. Let me hear the dialogue, for fuck’s sake.

I shouldn’t have to request closed caption subtitles at the cinema because movie producers are wanking each other off about how you need high dynamic range.

I really think they need to produce 2 different mixes, since most cinemas I’ve been to, it’s been awful in recent years.

This opinion makes me unreasonably angry. If they want to do some more fancy mixing for cinemas and home set ups that it actually works for, fine.

But by default, I want to hear the dialogue, and any movie producer who doesn’t want to try achieve that is a moron and elitist.

No it isn’t comrade. Join your local socialist groups (unless they’re MLs who think Stalin was good and China is a country to emulate, in which case, find another group who are sane and actually socialist).

At least, I refuse to believe it’s terminal!

Wishing you love and solidarity from Australia 💪

Yeah it is absolutely fine haha, just having a complaint for fun

The lower case e is really bothering me for some reason

Give users their voices back (or at least choice in what they want to see and block)

This is why I think that dev is 100% in the wrong. They made it obscure, and default, for a reason: because they can’t bear to read a political opinion online, or that they’re happy someone responsible for untold number of people (Luigi’s alleged victim) is dead (normal, empathetic human response to someone evil dying).

You’re right, individuals should be able to choose who to block (which Lemmy already lets you do!)

I’m glad this dev has been exposed.

It’s a shame that everything has become so politicized that people feel the need to shove their religious political beliefs down everyone else’s throats. Yeah, we all know who the Bad Guys™ are; we don’t need to be constantly reminded.

A huge problem is widespread political disengagement. It’s not a shame everything has gotten so politicised, it’s a shame how much worse inequality and consolidation of power has become. And things are getting worse and worse. Sorry, the only solution to this is to build a movement of people to push back, and reverse this. It can’t be achieved by a handful of people.

People do need to be reminded. People do need to get their message out there.

We don’t need to talk about bad things all day every day, but honestly, the amount of people who talk politics and are geting organised to do something is way, way, way too low.

Thank you for somewhat restoring my head cannon haha

TIL then I guess. If I imagine someone saying this in a US accent, I just can’t picture it haha

telcos

Are we Australians rubbing off on the international English lexicon? I don’t know how to feel about this haha

kWh/BTUs or kJ (though usually MJ for gas usage where I’m from)

Ahhh I can rest easy now.

BTUs might be the funniest US Customary unit for the name. The absolute worst US Customary unit for power is tons of refrigeration, I feel violated knowing that’s used at all.

In my line of work, the reply button should be hidden. It’s so annoying when you have to forward a bunch of emails because some dingus decides all the people purposefully cc’d in don’t need to be kept in the loop.

And at the rate we all send each other emails, this is an annoyance.

Also now I have like 3 different threads all with the same subject, yay! Email definitely works for this and isn’t a pain at all! (Would be nice if an email client handled this better, but I’m stuck with Outlook for work)

Please, if there’s an email chain, by the second reply-all, you had better hit reply all, or reply with a different subject.

Or basically, it’d be nice if people used reply and reply all appropriately for the situation in general haha

End capitalism. It’s no coincidence all these countries are pushing this in lockstep.

End goal is the death of online freedom.

Get angry, get involved in your local politics to bring democracy to the workplace and the economy.

It’s not gonna get better otherwise.

If they try to retire classic outlook I’m gonna riot.

Windows 11 is bad and I was unhappy when I got moved onto it, but is bearable. New outlook is unusable if you get a large number of emails every day for work.

They decided: let’s rebuild it with none of the features!!
