For the reasons you mentioned about the quietness of it it wasn’t really for me. I went into the movie hoping not necessarily for action but for a little more sciencey stuff and it didn’t really have that or explain anything. As you said, the sci-fi element is just dressing - it could easily have been set in any other sort of world.
So it’s for US tourism only?
I dunno I’d rather be able to afford a house than have spaceships talk.
That’s gotta be the most insane anthropogenic impact I’ve ever heard.
I haven’t heard it called this before but I agree with others that the general concept is a good idea. We are far too quick to jump to the next processor, the next monitor etc. when those things can realistically last a very long time before hitting too much of a performance limitation (especially for people who don’t render anything like high games or video editing.)
Sidenote: I love the little arrows you had for links, how did you achieve that?
There’s an app that does this pretty well called Ground News. For a given topic it will show the coverage across the political spectrum. However, I didn’t think that this community was limited to English? Either way, I guess you could start putting one together.
I’m pretty sure it just doesn’t suit New Zealand right now to call him a dictator, especially with a visit coming up in a week. Australia and New Zealand have to occupy a precarious position because they are European/Western in nature but obviously closest to the Asian powers. Therefore they have to try and be besties with the US whilst staying ok with China.
Conversation about hot topics is going to happen no matter what. As long as it stays respectful I think it’s ok.
Guess I stand corrected then.
Controlling input devices is a massive PITA it turns out. What would be been a couple of lines with xinput involved a massive (to a beginner at least) stuff around with config files. There should be a GUI way to turn off input devices.
Warns? It’s been going on for decades.
To be fair there was no one tracking the migrant boat because they were crossing illegally. We knew the sub went missing basically as soon as it did rather than when people started spotting bodies. In situations where migrant boats are found before/in the midst of sinking help is sent (although after that it’s probably a trip to the detention centre.)
I’ve heard that since it’s in international waters he was able to skirt most regulation on subs.
The Greek shipwreck is an unfortunately common tragedy. Whether in the Mediterranean or elsewhere migrant bodies frequently wash ashore. The Titanic story is something novel, and I think at least partially people see it as something justified for adventure tourism exclusive to the extremely wealthy to end poorly. There is nothing to really get excitement out of from the shipwreck, it’s just sad.
I wonder how much involvement she really had? Seems a bit like a cash grab at such a young age to be honest (even though she has done a lot.)
I personally would like to see posts in 4 languages and as far as I can tell it won’t let me specify more than one in my profile so I just leave it on undefined. I’m having I guess the opposite issue to you in that I’m only seeing English content when I would like to see some in my other (non-native) languages for better immersion.
LibreOffice and OpenOffice are the two most popular I believe. One will usually come preinstalled on your distro (for me in Fedora it’s LibreOffice.)
I am confused. Am I supposed to be confused?
It’s the plagues.
