2024: Hottest year to date, and first year over 1.5ºC in c/[email protected]
[–] HappycamperNZ 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Sitting here in a beautiful sunny day, people can be forgiven for thinking its not a big deal.

Until you realise how much energy it takes to raise the temperature of the ocean and land by 1.5. And then that all that energy goes into every weather event forever until we reverse it.

Two Russian oil tankers reportedly sink in Kerch Strait in c/[email protected]

I unfortunately don't have the luxury of giving up- us parents in the know are aware we had it much easier than our kids will, and we didn't have it easy either.

I cant stop it, can't ignore it, but I can do what I can.

Well I thought id leave "and the long term effects of those 4 years over the next 80" for someone else.

Spread the depressing reality around a bit

how do you workout when you don't have much time? in c/nostupidquestions

Who downvoted you? We can't all escape our responsibilities for 3 hours, or enough to work everything at a strict schedule.

Yeah, this is bad advice for a comp level, or optimal progress, but for 99% of people the habit of going and doing something is orders of magnitude better than finding every excuse not to go that day.

I can barely manage anything that takes longer than cooking a decent meal.

Yeah, 3 hours.

There's a reason I need the gym

No, its geared to be as addictive and pleasurable as possible.

It just so happens that both carbs and sugar are pleasurable, and by coincidence also the cheapest part.

Auckland regional fuel tax looking to be scrapped (www.stuff.co.nz)
 

Look, we need the money and fuel is bloody expensive, but I believe we are adding another problem to the next generation and regressing further.

The tax sucks, but the benefits were worth it.

opinion: The NZ dream and culture has made us fall behind as a country. (self.newzealand)
 

Don't know the best way to put this but ill try.

As much as I love this country, we have fallen soo far behind. I don't want to get to political, but I think Labour tried to fix it in one way, now Nat will try the other. Neither will work in the time they have.

We always prided ourselves on our past accomplishments- women vote, Hillary, Rutherford, Nuclear Free, Maori Batallion - and what we are as a country - massive dairy producers, amazing tourist destination, friendly people. But we have dwelled on it too long and got complacent. Our desire to repeat our past success has made us miss opportunities that require years of investment, and meant we are now in a cultural and economic hole that will be increasingly difficult, expensive and time consuming to get ourselves out from.

We have a tiny population and limited housing in an empty country where people have limited desire and finances for kids. Massive farms that produce income for a few overseas investors or historic families. Massively increasing inflation and cost of living due to our long supply chains and small industry base, especially compared to overseas. Falling education at a time we needs teachers, medical persons, engineers and tradies... unis are slashing courses, councils are running out of money, and overseas investors will funnel more out of the country.

I just want others thoughts around this - I have multiple ideas and theories, but I want to hear from you all.

cross posting from reddit - any coders happy to put in some leg work? (self.hfy)
submitted 1 year ago by HappycamperNZ to c/hfy

Hi all,

Reddit refugee here. I've been following hfy for a number of years and am invested quite heavily in a number of stories. I usually read on mobile on my lunch break, but with rif going and the shocking app it's replaced with I can no longer do so - just log in via computer every week or so to catch up.

What I am interested in is seeing if any coders here are able to make a bot that pulls ongoing stories from r/hfy when they are updated (first contact, TFTR.etc) and ask the authors if they are ok with it being automatically posted to lemmy as well?
