Christmas Island is well known for its asylum camps... and nothing else? Stupid is really the only word.

From wikipedia:

Christmas Island's geographic isolation and history of minimal human disturbance has led to a high level of endemism among its flora and fauna, which is of interest to scientists and naturalists. ... As of the 2021 Australian census, the population of Christmas Island is 1,692.

And there's a town there called "The Settlement"?

Good pick /s

Paper is right out

Some spiders, yes. Others not so much. Really depends and some of the small spiders are worse than the big ones. Tbh centipedes are worse, they're just nasty. Spiders stay mostly away from humans, the bolder ones just stay in the corners and eat bugs so we kinda like them. I used to catch them in jars and take them back outside.

Wasps are a thing - we've got european and paper wasps mostly where I live, but I've never been stung in all my years here. If you're removing a nest, just light some newspaper on fire and wave it near the nest so the wasps smell the smoke. The wasps leave and they dont get angry about the nest being destroyed. I used to clear a couple of nests off my house every year but I've moved and don't have to do it as often here.

I've seen 2 brown snakes in my life and I went hiking near rocks and water in snake territory to see them. If you do not do this, you'll likely never see a snake. Spiders are a very low risk and are mostly just annoying. Tbh it's kangaroos near dusk while driving that are the biggest risk in my neighborhood.

Oh yeah and don't go swimming in the NT and Queensland unless the water is clear... but otherwise you're fine.

That entire sentence is unintelligible marketing drivel.

This just confirms for me that we need a noncredible formula 1 community

All good, just stating he wasn't wearing an SS uniform

Uhh so I am pretty sure he mentioned it was a British military uniform, which made him lose it when they put him in the article for being a nazi because they just needed him to look the part.

Not defending anything but he did have receipts stating it was a British military uniform/costume

Can I install on a Samsung? I know computers and their bootloaders/OSs pretty well but phones are mostly a mystery

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm a two timer but saw a lot of people talk about it the first time. I couldn't find anyone talking about the latest one so figured I'd mention it here

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah so I can dm, I just can't delete a dm request oddly enough. I'm on Connect so might be my app rather than the instance
