I had a crank powered am/fm radio, no bigger or heavier than a pack of cards, that used a pair of wired headphones as the antenna. About a minute of cranking got you about 20 mins of surprisingly decent quality radio. I used to use it all the time for years, until it got water damaged camping one time. No chance of doing that with digital radio (or Bluetooth headphones).

FM > DAB

That’s a no then… lol

I would add on that Bazzite is a good alternative to Nobara, if you want a decent fedora atomic system, that should be basically unbreakable and powered by fedora.

Nice work Greens keeping up with reform too.

Don’t forget transphobia

wins Islington North. Get wrecked Labour ghouls.

In another brilliant policy manoeuvre Kier manages to co-opt more Tory policy by bringing in national service, but in support of Israel, it’s actually compulsory service for British citizens in the IOF.

An amazing day for the Electoralism libs who view politics as a team sport. They get to feel good about their colour tie lifting the trophy for a few days, before the weeks and months pass and they notice that fundamentally nothing has changed.

Well who am I kidding, they won’t consciously notice, but they will quietly stop ”caring” about a lot of choice issues; as the glorious project of Cameron-ism continues with all its austerity, and all of the cruelty, continued decay and extraction that entails, as well as the continued ramp up of anti immigrant rhetoric, transphobia, the anti worker policies and the crackdown on dissent and protest.

Wouldst thou like the taste of butter? A pretty dress? Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?

Slaanesh is bourgeois decadence, return to Gork and Mork.

Hanlons razor with these fools, either: the octogenarian Joe Biden was made to look old with an elaborate web of audio visual distortions, that his own campaign isn’t talking about, or: the octogenarian Joe Biden looks old. There is no talking to these idiots.

Nobody knows what it means, but it’s provocative, it gets the people going!

I don’t want to set the world on fire - or something equally contemporary!

Also Minecraft is old as shit, I remember when it was just creative mode, no crafting as an early beta on a web page back in like 2009. That’s 15 years ago, Minecraft is almost old enough join the British army!!

I’m kind of ok with there being some media that is deeply critical of capital without being explicitly ML. I think it’s a good way of warming up ‘well meaning liberals’ to spicer left wing takes down the line.

The sort of person who is literate and is able to understand what the words they’re reading mean, but has never had a single independent thought in their life, and as such is not able to think beyond the words on the page in front of them and infer any context, wider meaning or implications. So they can read that an 8 year old did a charitable thing, and then have zero further thoughts about what the conditions are that mean the other 8 year olds are getting into food debt.

Now I think about it, probably the exact same type of person that condemns Hamas because Oct 7th “wasn’t very nice”, without a single thought about the history, motivations and actions that lead up to Oct 7th.

Imagine reading the article, and being so that you think “yes this is a wholesome good news story, all is well with society, silly OP mustn’t have even read it.”

I have some bad news for you.
