I wouldn’t bother. If they’re this simple and loud about whatever they think they comprehend of evolution and natural selection concepts, you know them and their cat are ironically nature’s food in the first 48 hours detached from society’s teet. Lucky for them, we keep getting better at keeping the weakest around. Mike Judge does a good film about it.

All of Oceania is this. There’s a lot of unique land animals that evolved with no threat. European colonisation really fucked that entire region and the ecosystems within.

On average, each roaming, hunting pet cat kills more than three animals every week. The numbers add up. On average, over a year each roaming and hunting pet cat in Australia kills 186 animals. This number includes 110 native animals (40 reptiles, 38 birds and 32 mammals).

That’s for Australia’s 3.7M pet cats that aren’t kept indoors 24/7. So that’s approx 407M native animals killed each year by cat lovers that don’t responsibly take care of their cat—71% of cat owners. Factor in other contamination and habitat destruction, you can expect that to be closer or even over half a billion native animals killed each year.

So, yeah, Oceania countries will hunt and kill cats. And anyone that doesn’t keep their cat inside or at least bell it’s collar, is a real piece of shit. Certainly doesn’t give a fuck about animals and the environment. It’s a totally different part of the world to Eurasia where it’s fine to just have strays all over the countryside because they’re actually a part of the functioning ecosystem.

Poor doggo 🥺

Guns are so loud.

The article is only referring to per device keys and passkeys that lock them on that device. In other words, someone would need to be able to get your device’s key, decrypt it or brute your passkey, spoof or steal your device somehow, and send the key under it’s identity. I’m sorry, but I don’t think the few people that could do that would be wasting their time to do it to little old you. For most people, their insignificance is the best security they have.

Way to flex your indoctination

Press the buttons on the top.

Actually turns out he’s a great guy and this video was edited together by a competitor trying to ruin his reputation.

Brexit doesn’t appear in its context. It’s simply comparing results to the last survey in 2020. I think the author just saw an opportunity to hate on Brexit—fair enough—but you could pick any post-2020 event and it wold be just as true.

The survey mostly addresses social and cultural topics; hardly anything relatable to Brexit

That’s the thing. America’s majority “progressive” cohort are still a little right of centre by the standard of most other developed societies. But for many conservatives, I think “progressive” is synonymous with “the far-left” in their minds, when really it’s more just playing catch up with the world or trying to restore intended concepts of the US Constitution.

Health, income protection, economic regulation, appropriately funded education, crisis/disaster/wellbeing support, etc. These are your “basics” by default. Common rights and protections for individuals. But if your country doesn’t have them, it would be seen as progress attaining them in the same way roads, voting, and sanitation were progress. It’s be foolish to stop evolving a society under the idea that there’s no benefit to new and proven advancements in society and culture. Your average American progressive just wants to roll that update in and get some nice new features and quality of living. When a conservative says “no!” they’re not realising they’re saying “yes” to continuing in their modern dark ages.

Have never met a Samir that wasn’t a great guy

Use it all the time (UHF). But only get comms on other off-roaders, all the trucks, or caravamers. It’s very useful. I give out handhelds to friends if we’re travelling together.Honestly, phones are pretty shit in comparison.

I’m glad it’s not popular for other drivers, though. One of the main benefits is most people don’t use it, so the bands don’t get clogged with shit.

Maybe if someone lets Miss Universe know she can send the message on.

Is there some beautiful autistic mind keeping infographical track of this stuff? My mere lesser brain only just entertained the idea of how interesting that’d be ro see.

Yeah, that’s so much effort, I’d want to be paid extra for it.

Yeah. Few times a week I go to mine to chat with all the locals over two or three beers then head home. It’s a nice way to wind down, be out, and socialise at a really low intensity. No organising is needed, just arrive and there’ll be someone there you know.

That was kind of the point of pubs (public house). A place for the community to meet up in any weather and have a good time together whether games, sharing stories, or having a meal. The smaller the town, the friendlier and more tight the patrons are too. Also great places to frequent when travelling, meeting new locals, getting great travel advice, making friends for the few days you’re there.

There’s a lot of dim people here. Myself included.

Huh, weird.

Okay, I’m definitely trying again.

Some of my older gear is fine, but an example of something that wasn’t working was my TD-27 V2 on a kit. What module is on yours?

I struggle in summer DST. Because the sun sets later, I don’t get hungry untiil later, which triggers my tiredness later, which makes my eventual sleep shittier, and I’m more tired in the morning.

Fucks with farmers too.

Yeah I have tried it, but didn’t have luck unless I was driverless and that meant losing velocity. Maybe I configured wrong, it was kind of confusing but the internet said it was facing the same issues as me. Mainly this was for Roland stuff.

I was going to just get a laptop for Windows to record onto next to instruments and then transfer, but I’d rather just be able to plug into the DAW.
