One book I read predicted societal disruption for 2035, with a total collapse of nations around 2050. I found it overly dramatic at the time, but now, 15 years later, it seems we’re well ahead of that prediction.
One book I read predicted societal disruption for 2035, with a total collapse of nations around 2050. I found it overly dramatic at the time, but now, 15 years later, it seems we’re well ahead of that prediction.
“I think we are headed for major societal disruption within the next five years,” said Gretta Pecl, at the University of Tasmania. “[Authorities] will be overwhelmed by extreme event after extreme event, food production will be disrupted. I could not feel greater despair over the future.”

A local extreme right MP had his ties to Chinese spies laid bare this year, did not even make a dent in the polls.
The elections will be brutal…

As a Belgian, I sure hope you’re right!
no indeed, I don’t think it’s that specific. I mainly browse the weekly exploration playlist, based on my listens, which either recommends other of my favorite songs that I hadn’t listened yet, or unknown songs that usually fit my styles. Enough for me to cut the subscriptions 🥳
Reminded me of KP’s man-moth
I second this, very nice indeed!
I also use their Picard software to check the downloaded album, then it updates the metadata automatically and places them in the appropriate folder structure.
It’s a very intersting viewpoint, pardon me for exploring further. So future you (or me) is also dead until the brief flash of life where yours and his consciousness finally overlap, before lapsing into nothingness again.
It’s very reasonable even, to think everything not experienced this very moment is totally alien to us.
Thanks for stretching my grey matter on this dull day!
By that rationale, wouldn’t other people then also be dead, as you cannot experience their consciousness?
The future might seem far off, but it starts right now.
Distro Chooser is giving you great advice. I love EndeavourOS. First started out on it with KDE, now I’m on sway, everything just works perfectly, so I can definitely recommend it!

Ironically enough How To Read by Mortimer J. Adler. I try to reread this book every few years to remind me what (else) I should be doing while reading.
Even though it has more a journaling/daybook feel, I use LogSeq for this. Their paid version offers cloud sync which is perfect (and easy enough) for me

Yunohost has a Lemmy app
I’m 2 days into trying GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7a and it’s been a great experience all around. I reckon I found my main driver for the next couple of years.
Quite the emotional roller coaster this was… Went from ‘uh-oh’ all the way over to ‘WHATDOTHETRIANGLESMEAN’ and back round to ‘cool bro’
Funny how 8 years ago, people kept saying “don’t worry about Trump, there are checks and balances in place”. None of that talk this time around!
