I reckon this is probably what the issue is. Maybe it’s of a device type where an icon wasn’t created or where some reference to the icon’s image is broken. Thank you.

Everything seems to be working fine and it mounts successfully. Thank you for the suggestion.

Thanks for responding, but no, I have 3 devices plugged in at the moment and the icons don’t change regardless of which one I have selected. This is the only one with an ‘x’ icon. It doesn’t appear to prevent me from using it, but I’m unsure if it’s indicative of an issue with the device itself. Maybe it just means it isn’t a recognised device. Kind of wish Nemo had tooltips or something.

FTFY

I used to read Australian news every day. Now I just don’t bother. This government just wastes their time on complete and utter nonsense like this while we’re in the middle of a housing crisis that they’re doing their absolute best to exacerbate.

I feel like I became dumber just reading this article.

In honesty (my last comment was clearly not legit), you likely do pronounce the ‘L’; most accents will include this in my experience.

Does the tip of your tongue touch the roof of your mouth just on or behind the ridge before your front teeth? If you release your tongue before pronouncing the ‘D’ is there a release of air? If you do position your tongue here and there is no release of air before pronouncing the ‘D’ (which does release air), then you are pronouncing the ‘L’.

Crunchyroll’s (then Funimation) acquisition of Animelab is what led me to stop paying to stream anime.

Lower quality videos. Harder to navigate. Distracting watermarks on the side of the screen. Blocking VPNs. Ads even though you already pay them.

I hate that there is so little effort put into preventing monopolies from buying out the competition

It’s pronounced ‘moeoueieueld’. You really need to emphasise the ‘a’ sound to get it right.

Crew of Soyuz 11: “Well, screw you too!”

Alternatively, compare him from Phantom Menace to Revenge of the Sith. Poor bugger aged 20 years in 6 years.

Anyone can be a martyr; all you need to do is believe your cause has more value than your own life. However, we have another word for someone who believes their cause has more value than the lives of innocent bystanders. Yahya Sinwar was a terrorist.

Sinwar won’t be remembered as a martyr, he will be remembered as a selfish fool. There is no doubt in my mind that more Palestinians would be alive today if Yahya Sinwar were never born.

This is a fair assessment. I actually like politics, but I have still blocked numerous political communities because the users spam variations of the exact same 2 articles over, and over, and over, and over again.

It’s either going to be:

1. Trump be stoopid
2. Israel be bad

The first few times were interesting, now it’s just effing annoying. Blocking these communities has definitely improved my Lemmy experience.

I used to pay for 4 streaming subscriptions.

Now no one gets my money. I would love to support developers, but I’m unwilling to put up with this bullshit to do so.

Ads even though I already pay? Have to turn off my VPN to use your website? Incomplete series? Inability to watch content offline? Regularly increase the cost well above inflation level? Geolocking content?

Streaming services get shittier and shittier with each passing day. Glad I ‘opted out’.

Ah, that is not how your initial comment came across. Though I guess you realise that now.

I honestly don’t recall ever encountering any bars on buying video games as a kid, or even knowing that ratings existed, though it could just be because my parents bought most of my games. I think you’re right that very few people in Australia care about ratings. To me, it’s clear that ratings are almost entirely arbitrary. It’s obvious that big developers get more leeway in how their products are rated than smaller developers anyway.

It’s probably the website geoblocking content and OP is not at fault for posting a low-value article as I initially thought; my bad. I don’t want to disincentive people posting legitimate content, so my previous comment was uncalled for.

Edit: it’s both extremely telling and extremely concerning how much my rational take on consent is triggering all these pathetic men.

Your initial comment was rational, it was well-thought out and you made a fair point while ending the comment on a positive note. Left alone, I would have upvoted your well-considered opinion and moved on.

However, your follow up responses and your edit were unprovoked ad hominem sexist attacks where you assume everyone who disagrees is a mansplaining penis-wielder whose words have less value than your own. While having your views challenged can be confronting, responding in the manner you are only detracts from your argument.

Click on link. See no video. Close link.

Stop wasting my time.

Edit: Please disregard my comment OP, not your fault. As per below comment, it looks like the mentioned video is there, the website likely has geoblocking restrictions.

Australians do. As do international companies selling to the Australian market.

This post makes me question my interpretation of events.

I have acquaintances who seem to have a paranoid belief that every other person in the world is a paedophile just waiting for an opportunity to kidnap their child. Growing up in the 90s, I had a great deal of freedom in comparison to this thought process. I played cricket on the streets, I walked around the neighbourhood without concern, I walked my dog in the evenings. My parents didn’t seem to think I would be unsafe without them around to coddle me.

I guess no matter the generation there are parents who go too far in one extreme or another… Though tbh, being concerned about witchcraft seems more medieval than boomer. Sorry for your loss, but I’m glad you feel more free now. I imagine it must be a complex mix of emotions.
