Hmm… No most post apoc fiction is mindful of these issues.
My main concern is that most novels have a token nerdy / accountant type who’s role is to demonstrate how useless our skills are in a post apocalyptic wasteland. That’s me really. An accountant.
LOL.
It’s the way I say it is because reasons and any contrary information is a fabrication.
Indeed.
I don’t get the hate for Wong?
I understand that labor is not left enough for fediverse users.
She’s a diplomat though, she represents Australia to the world. It’s not her job to say mean things to the people you don’t like.
That’s what diplomats do?
As a diplomat, how would you like Wong to address this?
It seems that claim is not really true:

Besides which, do you want politicians to vote according bro their constituents wishes or according to their own interests?
A “low population phase” is a nice way to say “post apocalypse”.
I really enjoy this genre of fiction, but I don’t think I would enjoy it IRL.

Of course we have them, but the ratio will increase as user numbers rise.
Federation does not protect us from these issues in any way. In fact it’s very susceptible to misinformation through federation.
More users also increases the appeal for bots, purveyors of misinformation, trolls, and assholes generally.
Exactly. The gaping hole in the judicial system exposed by both Trump and Musk is that it takes forever for any consequences to arise, and you can just delay and appeal and delay until you get a buyable judge.
Musk is winding up to meddle in another election. Like oh no, oh golly gosh, he did something naughty last time. What the fuck are you going to do to stop him doing that again? Fuck all.
Yes but more users doesn’t necessarily make a spoon collecting community more viable.
Am easier pathway is to encourage existing users to visit this type of community.
Additionally, consider carefully whether the fediverse can support a spoon collecting community, or perhaps you should just post about spoon collecting in the general “cutlery collecting” community.
More users is not necessarily more better.
… but I do agree there are very few active communities.
The focus should be on making the fediverse the best it can be, rather than focusing on attracting users.
Well, what were the US objectives?
I guess everyone stopped talking about Epstein so maybe that was the win.
The lot of them are creepy and weird.
I’ve never been to America, but most restaurants with foreign cuisine face this problem and solve it the same way: if a customer asks for medium spice, the chef needs to know whether the customer wants the local or foreign scale.
There’s no implication that mild is hotter than American very spicy, you’re looking at two separate scales.
In Australia your gap year is taken after high school, before university. Most people get jobs.
Rich people are terrified of the faucet being turned off.
Or at best, just not vote.
I thought so. No answers just criticism because she didn’t show up with a “Free Palestine” shirt.
I wonder how the foreign affairs minister from a liberal, national oor ON government would handle this?
