Solar plus battery is much cheaper than nuclear. And it adds immediately. Nuclear takes years and doesn’t come online til the project is finished. Solar comes online incrementally and can be anywhere.

Impacted teeth can get infected which is painful. Being impacted does not always cause problems. Wisdom teeth that come through normally can also cause problems and get infected and need removal.

Most people need them out, but not all. Too early to tell here.

Google takeout for Google Photos. If you have the space, add it to drive for downloading as the links expire if you request it for download instead. Choose the largest file size as otherwise it’s a pain to download. Be aware the meta data is not useful. If you are going to use Immich, Immich-go can help import direct from the zip files you creat.

Not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. Thes ones are still growing. The second molars roots are still growing too, so this is likely a young teen.

In much the same way that the west did not protect Ukraine despite them voluntarily giving up their nukes. Iran likely sees that and makes it even more desirable to have nukes. Whether they are actively developing them, or that’s a pretext for an invasion that’s once again about oil is yet to be seen.

It says passive investing, tracking stocks has quadrupled, so all that money going to the same set of stocks has increased their value, so they are overvalued.

Yes, farmers markets are ideal but they are not as common as independent grocers.and don't match every schedule as sometimes only open for a few hours a week.

It's hard at Aldi to get the same processed crap week on week out. It kind of needs a mindset change. Go in looking for stuff to try not your usual stuff to buy. You'll find some you like and some you don't. They change and rotate available products all the time.

It's also terrible for the environment for us to be time shifting all our fresh produce. We should be eating more seasonally, which doesn't have to mean less choice.

I'm surprised at the abc having an accurate article that calls out the dangers of palantir. They don't even talk just about the privacy invasion but the risk for coles of losing control of their data. We all know how enshittification happens at this point, so it's a given.

You always do. However, you have to make the effort. Aldi and iga as well as lots of other smaller options are there.

Coles and woolies only act as a duopoly when we let them. When they actually have to compete, consumers and workers benefit. Aldi is cheaper and pays their workers better. No facial scanning and invasive privacy practices from them either.

Yet another reason not to ship at coles. They are getting a beating in their ACCC hearing too. Independent grocers and Aldi should be the default for everyone. Unfortunately, most people shop at the duopoly to their long term detriment.

It's good to see the abc actually calling out the implications and problems too. Not just for consumers, but for coles and for the countries interests. It makes it harder for coles to spin it as being for shareholders or for cost pressures etc.

Of course you can, but you only have so much time to do actions. Spending their time on less important things means more important things get neglected.

I think the problem of protecting kids and society in general from the harms of social media, and now ai, is hugely important, though. Age verification by these untrustworthy companies is not the solution, though.

 

When I go to a post with video media, on iPad, there doesn't seem to be a way to exit. For images, they can be swiped away or touch outside to exit. For videos, ice tried different gestures and there is no back button or X.

I use Android daily, with a back swipe gesture, but there is no such gesture I'm aware of on iPad. Does anyone know how or should I submit a bug or feature request?

 

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

 

I just recently got the 190 update pushed. It mentioned lots of fixes. One was image handling.

I have found that now exiting an image is a bit slow or glitchy. A single gesture to go back does not exit and instead it needs two. Tapping an image instead still closes it but there is a delay that wasnt there before.

I'm on a pixel 7pro with gesture navigation.

 

My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
