I just don’t expose myself to the 24h news cycle very much. My life is good, the life of the people around me is good, and nobody is helped by worrying about things I can’t change.

well played.

As you freely admit you have no money and seem to have no specific qualifications.

Even with those boxes checked I would never ever consider moving across country without a signed employment contract at the target location. The risks seem insane and completely outsized to me. But if you’re a way, way more adventurous type than me, at the very least you’d need enough savings to keep you off the streets for a few months if you are planning to start job hunting only after moving. Anything less would just be stupid.

wtf that’s dystopian af

Or, it could be that there’s like 300x more non-Aussies than Aussies so constraining the ability of foreigners to speculate on Australian real estate could be seen as a priority by an institution who’s literal job it is to serve the Australian people, first and foremost.

I did specify world view, did I not? A credible commitment to the rule of law, democracy, secular politics, and to the rules-based international order would be a start. I don’t think we should award citizenship to anyone who can’t even make lip service to these principles.

edit: smart selection process on the part of that German state actually. Screening out people who would deny Israel the right to exist probably also catches a lot of those who would fail some of the above requirements.

Good. I hope there are further tests of the applicants’ world view in place, but that’s a start.

I wouldn’t know, haven’t seen an ad on youtube in like 10 years.

Not for much longer.

On lemmy.ml at least, there’s a very good reason cause the admins are authoritarians. Can’t even say “bitch” without it getting removed.

As a python developer and user of websites, please no. The web is already a slow mess and my laptop is already spinning up fans on some websites that really shouldn’t do anything much more complicated than load text and images from a database and display them. CPython would make it exponentially worse. At least pick a sensible performance focused implementation.

Unless you jump through a crazy number of hoops, your domain just gets blacklisted by every spam filter under the sun.

I mean, ever tried hosting your own email server in ${CURRENT_YEAR}? Might as well write those mails to a thumb drive and throw it out of the window.

Arch user should be an aeropress: people can’t seem to shut the hell up about how great it supposedly is

As you say, 25 is not old at all. As long as you keep socializing with friends and coworkers, pursue IRL hobbies ideally social ones, etc. as you mention, I don’t think it matters much if it takes you 6 months or >5 years to reach your fitness goals.

The only people I’d consider “”“lost cases”“” I know personally are shut-ins who have long mentally parted ways with baseline humanity. An inability to have a decent conversation with people is harder to fix than being overweight and becomes more of a problem with each year of age. But you seem to be on the right track there!

A better job at what, getting you high? Pretty sure they already have that, and while it doesn’t net them 10k per dose the Sacklers would have liked that very much no doubt.

I’d probably ask for a much better metagenome assembler and binner. there’s enough groundwork and data out there with exponentially more created each year. If an AGI could compress the 20 or so PhD student-years needed to really leverage that into something outstanding into a few hours that would be really nice.

I can (and do) just read the ~/ssh/.config file if needed, it’s quite legible. In most cases however zsh autocompletion does all the heavy lifting for me (ssh ser(tab) -> ssh servername).

Still a cool idea for a script, and if it works well for you more power to you, just saying there’s more ergonomic and universally applicable solutions. (Only mentioning this since you said “I couldn’t find a decent solution to this problem”).

You gotta be able to acknowledge and discuss this stuff.

If the only way to advocate for climate action is to also try and turn people into pacifist commies, we can just stop trying.

edit: the laughable failure to understand basic human psychology in this thread, lmao
