I degoogled to Proton mail initially. I didn't like that I couldn't search my emails (a security thing or something? But annoying) and then their Drive was absolutely useless on macos. I had about 100gb and it couldn't sync even half of it.

After much help from support I eventually moved away to a combo of Fastmail, Mega and OnlyOffice.

Same with Australia. Seems a bit disingenuous to say it's banned, it's a government worker policy.

As a Manxman I approve 👍 I'm actually surprised how much of the Island is still there.

Can you just throw it into space?

“But I think the pressure at the moment needs to be for like-minded countries that share our values, to stand shoulder-to-shoulder

Definitely. The pressure should be on Australia to join Ireland, Norway and Spain.

Looks like We Bare Bears

I think politicians should be banned from owning multiple properties. It's a huge conflict of interest.

It wasn't even a parenting book, it was a kids book helping them to understand about same sex parents. Apparently at the meeting some people said maybe it should be moved to the adults section until it was pointed out it is for kids.

The first part is my first name, and I used to be in a punk band called Suspect Package.

I wonder if it's when it switched to the Gutenberg editor maybe?

Yeah I guess if you've been using it for a long time and have favourites built up that would work. I remember when YouTube started and it was pretty good, but with every video trying to game the algorithms I couldn't imagine trying to start afresh now.

The people that say it's their main form of entertainment must have to wade through so much crap to get to anything good, I just don't see the point.

I don't get the appeal of YouTube. I use it for maybe the odd music video or something, but often you'll just get someone's annoying commentary instead of the actual thing.

I live without it and it's great! Try it.

All of these AI prompts sound like begging. We're begging computers to do things for us now.

Thanks!

I see that makes sense. So what does making it public/blending traffic do?

I just ditched Proton Unlimited after moving to it last year from Google. The Drive app just never worked properly. Ended up going with Fastmail for email as I'm in Australia anyway and so far they've been good.

I did a quick search - looks like it is based on the number of first pref votes: https://www.aec.gov.au/Parties_and_Representatives/public_funding/index.htm

I'm still trying to understand searxng, does it start with nothing and build up its index each time you search? Will your results be rubbish for a while?
