I tend to agree. Though in reality I don't think we have any stake in a war with China at all. We are insignificant on the world stage with respect to military might and any belief that the US will come save us given their latest track record is copium to say the least. A war for us will mostly just cripple our economy if we take sides.

Our best bet is to make nice with both and wag our finger when they do something we don't like. Not enough for them to respond, just enough to show we saw the news.

Reality is humans in general suck, the idea that any one country is better than the other on human rights violations or general populace control is... Naive.

We can always look to our own back yard with Nauru if we want to be really uncomfortable with ourselves. We aren't saints.

I get this is lemmy and not Reddit but it's still the internet. I'm not sure you're allowed to make this much sense.

This is a fun writeup!

I have zero monitoring on my aquarium but have intended to do something similar - this might give me the push finally.

Android auto is working, has been for a while. Its in the Graphene app store.

Major issues are typically banking apps, though I've been lucky in that regard.

Being Australian, I imagine it's because everything is so spread out with a lack of infrastructure to boot.

Massive inefficiencies across the board with high costs associated with things which would improve this metric. Its extremely difficult to reduce your impact here without significant cost, and that cost is out of reach of the typical Australian. Things that do have impact (solar/batteries/water systems/electric vehicles) are excessively expensive compared to the alternatives, and the median Australian wage is around 65k.

As an example I just had a battery priced for my house, government subsidy included is $25k. Its not practical for most people.
