I think I'm just blocking too much. At one point I got a message something like "if you're seeing this, your browser is blocking chatbox". Before that the links did nothing. The color changer buttons worked.

Opinions and thoughts on the Red Rising trilogy, by Pierce Brown in c/fiction@literature.cafe
[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 hours ago

I've had 4 or 5 series in my life that I stopped midway through one of the books. This wasn't one of them. I read a lot, for what it's worth. I think realizing it was YA, I kind of relaxed my bullshit, tired-trope, stupidity reflex and just went along with it. It's been awhile since I read them, so I appreciated your synopsis. I get so disappointed when I have to stop a couple book in because I'm getting pissed off at the author.

John Cougar (Mellencamp) - I need a lover (1979). First released in 1978 under the stage name "Johnny Cougar". No. 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 in December 1979. in c/classicrock@lemmy.world

I wasn't a huge fan of his back then. I'm still not, to be honest, but I've really learned to appreciate his ability to craft a song. Just really underappreciated.

When I say "not a fan", I just mean that I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to him. But if he comes on the station, I'm not going to change it.

A livable wage is now considered a far left issue? Jesus christ things have gotten bad.

There are always doomsayers saying raising the minimum wage will do . And over and over it's shown to not have that effect. What it does in improve the lives of millions of people.

Do you think an Interrail trip through 8 countries in 21 days would be enjoyable? in c/travel@lemmy.world
[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 hours ago

I think it would be cool. I like watching out train windows though. Just be flexible. If it's not working, don't force it. When you plan your trip, spend time on contingency plans.

I've thought for a long time that leaving behind a story for loved ones to tell about the time I was just hanging out and got obliterated by a meteor would be a good way to go.

I laughed at that because the original had the whole thing about China and ended with "...move all my soon to be worthless USD to YEN." I didn't think it was a typo, so it was funny, but it looks like dude changed it to be consistent with what he was saying.

Does an animated face system monitor app exist? (sopuli.xyz)
 

I can't believe I've had an original idea in wanting a face system monitor. The face would change, skin color, eye size, ear flapping, mouth screaming, whatever, and the user could configure it how they wanted. Then I could get a quick system overview just by looking at the face in the corner of my screen. I'd code it up myself, but for 2 reasons. I think I'd tire of it quickly, as badly as I want to see it. I don't even know where to start with coding anything more than some bash scripting.

Mercenaries don't deserve special consideration (sopuli.xyz)
 

If you sign up to kill people, and it's not in reaction to an attack on your country, you are by definition just a mercenary. I don't wish death on you, but I don't feel much when you die and I don't think you deserve any special consideration by society for your questionable career choice.

Clara Mattei: capitalism is not natural - it’s enforced (www.youtube.com)
 

This was posted by UnfinishedProjects@piefed.zip to Politics@beehaw.org the other day. If you haven't seen it, and are in any way against the capitalist society and mindset, I highly recommend watching this.

Democrats will allow full ICE funding in budget bill (www.wsws.org)
 

The American Prospect reported that several Democrats in closely contested districts would be voting for the ICE appropriation. “They’re terrified of being labeled anti–law enforcement,” an unnamed source told the liberal magazine. “They want this to go away so they can talk about the cost of living more. Problem is, it’s not going away.”

I've never had to organize much in the way of videos/photos, until now. I'm going on a trip for a month or two and want to organize the pictures and videos I will be taking. I'm interested in datestamps and tags more than anything. Does anyone have a workflow that works for them? Any apps that make this easier that I haven't heard of?

EDIT: I'm wondering about things like, downloading media from my camera and having something sort it all in a schema of my choosing. Maybe other things that I don't know enough to even wonder. Or, maybe there is no there there.

How to download or just watch a threads link (sopuli.xyz)
 

Buddy of mine sent me what he describes as a disturbing video from his hometown. It's a threads link. I generally use yt-dlp or just straight mpv from the CLI and most things work. I can't see this, on my computer, or my crap phone. Does anyone know a trick or something for accessing this content. No I won't make a threads account. Here's the link, for what it's worth:
