It's the current government that is the major issue with the country right now. They're unpopular, figuratively and literally. In the last election, they got very few of the first votes, and they were only able to get into power with coalition of arguably the worst political parties in the country. They are well aware none of them will get into power next election, and are using their time in power to not only profit financially, but also ruin this country to sabotage any following government.

If you'd like a good example, the vast majority of the politicians in power are landlords or land owners. In recent years we have seen massive inflation in property prices and rent. There's been an erosion of protections agaisnt homelessness, and large payouts for landlords.

Leo Varadkar when in power was caught in broad daylight committing corruption. Giving confidential documents to a friend who owned a health clinic. The criminal investigation was brushed under a rug.

There's hope with a new goverment, it would likely be quite left leaning and many parties involved would be socialist of some form. But to be fair there are massive problems socially with Ireland, same with the Netherlands and in turn a lot of other European states.

It's really quite a shame how few options there are for buying music, especially with apple music no longer allowing to buy stuff. I recently got into Japanese classic city pop, and was surprised to find that there were several japanese sites that sold digital, drm free music still.

Do you have any write-up about your setup? I've been interested for a while in self hosting myself at home, but things like security and such are quite confusing and conflicting at times, I find.

Surprisingly not, you can easily transfer your followers and follows. Even your bookmarked posts can be saved and transferred. You do lose your old posts you've made, but in the grand scheme of things that's not the worst loss

Some software are hit and miss, or just fail to work on wine. Big one for a lot of people is the Affinity suite.

Reminds of Maths class in school when our teacher got us to try visualising and manipulating a 3D object in our mind. Very few were able to do it, which surprised me a lot.

I think the support has a lot to do with just how transparent Panic have been about the entire process. You can see a lot of people being able to emphasize with the human element behind the product and the company.

Organic Maps has been my go to maps since it came out. Fantastic navigation features, and felt no different than using Google Maps. The best part? It doesn't any internet connection to work!

And the acquisitions begin. It's clear they're ready to throw big money at making this "metaverse" a thing. They're probably trying to prove to their investors that they're comitted
