I agree with you, I have thought a lot about a hypothetical reality where people work paid jobs for 1 or 2 days a week (or 50-100 days a year) to do the things needed for society to function and spend the rest as they wish. It seems somewhat achievable compared to abolishing coerced work all together.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We don't perceive prices logarithmically when selling things.
1·5 months agoI’ve never seen anyone write it like that in English. It is understandable when you explain it, but it would normally be written simply as 1.25
Not mine! It’s stuck on 88:88
I had this problem at first, then I realized there’s so much music I never listened to before and I have enough new music between Qobuz and Bandcamp that I’m satisfied. But I see your point. I have pirated some music when the creator don’t allow me to purchase the songs.

Technology@lemmy.world•What would stop you from switching to a flip phone (or dumbphone) in 2025?English
7·5 months agoI tried a lot of things to keep my phone/screen usage down.l, including a dump phone. One day I got this brilliant idea to shut my phone off. That was way more efficient than any of the tricks I tried. When I need it for something I turn it on. I’ve since removed most fun apps from the thing.
I still have one game that I play, Lemmy, RSS and web browsers. Apart from those it’s mostly a bureaucracy machine with messaging, email, banking, MFA, work stuff, maps, lots of apps for managing tickets (it’s actually ridiculous), life trackers for some board games. Music, audiobooks and podcasts.
The smart phone is a convenient device that makes my life easier. I don’t whis to handicap myself when I can just turn the phone off instead. I also like to leave the phone at home if for instance I’m going to a party at a well known location.

51·5 months agoI disagree that barring a world leader from entering your jurisdiction is just political word play as you put it. I’m not sorry at all if that does not fit your world view.

5·5 months agoNo, because the point is to tell them they’re not welcome. Not being able to go to meetings in the UN in NY would be a big embarrassment for Israel or any other nation.

Futurology@futurology.today•Almost 25% of Ireland's electricity is used by data centers, contributing to the 2nd highest priced electricity in the world. Will supporting AI's electricity needs do the same in other countries?English
5·5 months agoData centers is pretty much the only reason we need to build more power in Norway.
That and the fact that the poptarts that runs our government want to use land power to power the oil and gas platforms in the north sea.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Mamdani, if Elected Mayor, Pledges to Order N.Y.P.D. to Arrest Netanyahu
6·5 months agoThe fact that the leaders in question knows damn well which countries they will be arrested in probably have something to do with it. If Netanyahu is told he will be arrested if he comes to NY there’s a really good chance that he will not come to NY.

politics @lemmy.world•People are losing jobs due to social media posts about Charlie Kirk
5·5 months agoThe leader of a Norwegian far left (not quite Marxist) youth party organization Rød Ungdom had to leave her position after she posted a sarcastic video about “oh no, how awful” it is that he died.
To be fair, she’s an extremist cunt and the parent party Rødt (Norwegian Red Party) have probably been looking for a godd enough reason to oust her for some time now.
bent@feddit.dkto
Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•So how do you feel about the whole Charlie Kirk divide?
111·5 months agoNever heard of him before he died. He was obviously a cunt of the highest degree. In my country he would have been a right wing extremist and probably been canceled by most serious organizations. In the USA his views are apparently so normal that he got assassinated by someone that thought he was too much of a lefty?
I don’t care about him at all tbh. We get news of Americans killing each other everyday, I don’t see how he is much different from all the other murder victims. Because he had a stage and a following? Apparently he hated emphaty so I’m considering dishonering him by being emphatic…
How fucked up can a nation be? I would mourn my country if I was US American. Since I’m not all I can do is shake my head aphaty and think “oh well, they’ll just continue doing whatever they’re doing over there”

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•"THE CRIME OF PUTTING SHIT IN MY PANTS WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED AND AS SOON AS WE FIND THE PERPETRATORS THEY WILL BE APPREHENDED AND PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW!!!"
14·5 months agoLooks like he’s either terrified or on coke/amf, probably a little bit of both tbh. Can’t blame him, anyone so wildly under qualified for his position should be terrified. And in his position he must have access to the white house medical cabinet.
I’m starting to think the satanists are on to something

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you balance enjoying what you do with having friends?
4·5 months agoI started doing things that I want, and if others join me, thats awesome, if noone comes along I’ll just go alone. I’ve met a lot of new people this way and it has worked wonders on my social skills.
It allows me to get a lot of new experiences without the hassle of having some miserable being tagging along. And it gives me interesting stories to tell when I meet up with my long time friends. Some of them even want to join some of my adventures.

ADHD@lemmy.world•Is struggling with goals a human problem or an adhd problemEnglish
3·5 months agoIn 5 years? Somewhere between running the country and on the streets. Hopefully I’ll be somewhere close to my current situation though.

ADHD@lemmy.world•Is struggling with goals a human problem or an adhd problemEnglish
1·5 months agoThis is what I do at work (IT), I learn just enough to get by any given task then move on to the nest thing. But every time I go back to do the task I understand it a little better and usually learn something new about the subject. “Learn to program” is such a weird thing to me. It’s like “learn to exercise”. The goal should be more like “do 5 push ups”, “run 10k” or whatever.



e came with App Lounge as their Store last time I installed it, but I got Aurora and F-Droid immediately for redundancy.
