What's with all of these stories about beauty companies on ABC
  • I heard a male reporter try out the make up on radio. Very strange segment that made no sense and he had no concept of what was normal for make up. He sprayed it in his face without removing his glasses, so couldn't see afterwards

    It was almost conical, but was supposed to be serious. It lowered my opinion of him, of the show and of the ABC in general. If I'm choosing to listen to news instead of fluff, I expect news.

  • Some VR studios are discounting their Quest games by 90% - Why?
  • They will only support it if it makes them more money. As soon as it doesn't, they will drop it.

    Tens of millions of users can be profitable ifnthey buy stuff. However, if its just cheap games and lits of infrastructure is needed, it won't be. Meta though they could make money off vr. They invested heavily. Its not happening and they will cur their losses.

  • Yep.
  • And rather than wipe it out and start, maybe adjust a percent of it.

    However constitution law would be overridden more. The less stable, the less decided, current scotus aside.

  • In Post-Debate Poll, Voters Think Biden Is Too Old to Be President Yet Alternative Candidates Perform Similarly Against Trump
  • Probably because thentisk of cognitive ability decline over a 4 year period increases significantly. Even if either were at their peak now, there is a higher risk of cognitive decline. Biden already shows signs of decline, so will likely worsen significantly. Trump likely has severe mental health issues and was never in peak health since entering politics.

    Pressure should be placed in Biden to stand down. Trump too, but he won't respond to calls to do the right thing. Biden might. Biden whole reason to stand was to not have Trump. Well, he's causing it to be more likely Trump. He should state that both of them are too old and mental faculties are not there and stand down.

    If he does not, everyone we sensible should still vote Biden in. Trump is dangerous and unhinged.

  • Britain and Ireland if all polar ice on Earth melted (+ coastlines during last ice age)
  • As an Irish person, geographically, it does. Politically it does not. Given this is a geographical map, rather than political, it's appropriate.

    I wouldn't want to see the typical map if great Britain and Northern Ireland with ROI missing. I zoomed in to see my town, which luckily is above water.

  • Kevin Spacey director says only ‘small minority’ in Hollywood think actor should quit
  • I disagree. He's good but not so good there aren't others to replace him. Now when I see him, his personal life and rapes take me out of the character. So, he's worse as an actor as he can't be the character, even if his acting hasn't changed. Some of it is even historical, not new acting.

  • Yesterday when I went to see Inside Out 2, one of the trailers was for a "Mufasa" movie, in the style of the last live action remake. What the heck.
  • They have had lots of misfires though. Has anyone even heard of strange world? Even going back to the original lion king, they used to release lots of straight to video sequels. Cheap to make, high margin.

    As you say, they have monopolised children's entertainment very successfully. Even with inside out 2, they have taken the character and made them older so the original target audience of viewers can follow the arc personally.

  • Stop use docker
  • I would suggest that if someone is using neither, perhaps consider podman as open source. However, I too would need a reason to move. I mainly use synology for images, so its their container manager, rather than docker but my understanding is its docker under the hood.

  • Do you use Pocket or other Read Later App?
  • I don't use pocket any more but I tried it out. I think the benefit was that you had the sync of articles to read between all devices with pocket.

    Personally, I use a browser for specific sites or searches. I use apps like Lemmy (connect) for content discovery pocket is a bridge between the two. It also allowed sharing between peopke. So rather than sharing a link by email or WhatsApp, I'd just add it to their pocket.

  • bug - refreshing after data outage unresponsive

    My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

    A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

    Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
