  • What’s being done about extreme drought? New technology is helping to detect and respond to catastrophic wildfires sooner. In Spain, officials are utilizing 1,000-year-old technology to cope with a historic drought.

    Replacing dirty energy sources with clean, technologically advanced, renewable energy sources can help cool our planet. We can all help by installing solar panels, choosing an electric vehicle for our next automobile purchase, and trading old HVAC systems for heat pumps.

    Wow who would have thought that in order to help clean up the mess caused by Capitalism and consumption, all I need to do is wait for new technology and consume more. Probably nothing else that can or should be done by the Government of Brazil.














  • Turn off broadcast of the SSID

    Don’t do this. It provides zero security, and just reduces usability. Now you should call your SSID something non-identifiable. So instead of “$YourName Wifi” call it “pleasure chest” or something. Additionally do not set a ridiculous 64 character + special characters password, because again you are providing next to zero additional security, while hugely reducing usability.

    Use a simple password scheme of 3-5 unrelated common words like from here: https://www.correcthorsebatterystaple.net/index.html for your wifi password.


  • Man, you guys just don’t understand that race is not an actual idea

    “you guys” i’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that racists don’t actually exist on lemmy. Leftist understand that “race” was a construct used to divide people based on criteria that aren’t threatening to the status quo. In the US, race exist to make sure that people don’t question the capitalists. In China is exist to make sure people don’t question whatever the inherent power structure that existed at the time “ethnic racism” was defined.
    The point is it doesn’t matter. The purpose of the division was the same and the practical division was equally spurious.
