Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
What you’re probably noticing is a result of the federation lag from lemmy.world over the last 2 weeks. Content is about 6 hours behind (but has been over a day behind at one point perhaps 10 days ago), so even though it eventually comes across, the time delay will mean they don’t show in All, Hot, Active, etc, When they federate across, they will already be 6 hours old. Then the votes will also be 6 hours late.
We were almost up to date over the weekend, but the kbin issue threw us back another bunch.
We aren’t the only instance affected, but those furthest from the lemmy.world server in Finland are hit worst due to a bug in lemmy. This wasn’t known until recently as previously some content would be silently lost but now with the updated version of lemmy it keeps track and retries.
I am not talking about the global network. Just about the local communities. Seems like nobody here is interested in what’s happening in the country.
TBH I have no idea what local news there is, that isn’t political drama. Has something of note happened recently?
really?
Sure. What’s the major NZ news that hasn’t been discussed here and isn’t political?
Why do you put the “isn’t political” qualifier on it? We don’t discuss politics either apparently even though there is a community called NZ politics. Hell we don’t seem to discuss anything on most days as nobody puts any kind of a link here.
I mean what isn’t political anyway? Are people vandalising the rainbow political? How about inflation? How about stories about climate change are they political?
Seems like politics effect every aspect of your life.
Currently we are heading towards the Budget. This means the media is and will be full of stories of things the government is considering doing, some confirmed, most are water-testing. For the most part, I don’t find any of these particularly worth discussing.
You mention vandalising rainbow crossings and climate change, both are items that have had links posted and plenty of discussion under them in the last few days. Inflation isn’t really a news item at the moment as it’s high, doing better than expected, but there’s not really anything to discuss.
You seem to feel like there’s big news not being discussed, I’m interested to know what I might have missed.
That seems really odd considering these decisions are going to have a massive impact on your life for the next three years or longer.
I brought them up as examples. There are many similar things happening in the country right now.
honestly by definition you have missed everything because NOTHING IS BEING POSTED HERE OR DISCUSSED HERE.
Days go by without a single submission. Some days there is one submission. Do you really think there is there is nothing or only thing happening in this country worth discussing?
I just find your stance odd as fuck. Why even have a social media site and not want to discuss anything.
I find your stance just as weird. If you think there are things not being posted, why not post them?
I have been unwell the last couple of weeks, but all the same, there are submissions almost every day. But also yes, there are absolutely days that go by where nothing interesting happens in NZ.
Budget water testing is not decisions, though there is the occasional decision in there. I haven’t seen anything that will personally affect me in any great way, though.
