Sharing an idea I came across in this anti-zoom video- if someone sends you an invite to a zoom meeting, simply reply something along the lines of: “great let’s talk here: [JITSI LINK]”, and hopefully, the person will just use jitsi instead. The good thing about jitsi is that it runs in-browser (not sure how well it works on low to mid-end phones through the browser though)

…I just came back to say thanks for showing me this issue and saw you’d replied. I just deleted zoom off my phone and laptop, and will really try to avoid using it now. Thank you!

Use Jitsi

What’s WEI?

Great! I had never actually seen it being played though I’ve listened to lots of gamelan played on Radio Seribatu: https://www.radioseribatu.com/radioseribatu

Thank you very much for the detailed info! This is interesting reading.

Australia? The island that’s 80% desert and is hot as hell already? What’s the reasoning behind that please?

Thanks for the other advice. During initial covid lockdowns I was stranded in a place with a strong agricultural sector and I felt like the rest of the world could go to shit but I could still buy food from down the road, so that’s good advice, yes.

I live in South America but tbh I don’t mind moving anywhere if it means I can have some semblance of a normal life and not have to worry about water. I wonder if moving to somewhere in the Amazon is a good move.

What sort of papers/info should I be reading in order to move somewhere where this stuff won’t be an issue? (okay will be less of an issue…) I heard once a while back that you need somewhere with lots of lakes?

People don’t care. I helped my friend set up a new laptop with Windows 11 and went to make a local account. I saw there was a dark pattern trying to force the user to login with a microsoft account. I told my friend, “oh, this is a dark pattern, they’re trying to get you to…” and his eyes glazed over and when I finished talking he said “right… well let’s do the microsoft account”
