Thanks again for this service.

Much appreciated! 👍

I was keen to try Sync but, after I saw my first ads on Lemmy with it and then saw the cost to remove them, I uninstalled.

I'm actually really happy with Connect, which has everything I want and for free.

Hey, thanks for the write-up, mate.

Much appreciated!

Yeah, what the fuck is with that?

Surely it takes just as many employees to operate three cars.

Are a whole lot undergoing maintenance?

Solastalgia (/ˌsɒləˈstældʒə/) is a neologism, formed by the combination of the Latin words sōlācium (comfort) and the Greek root -algia (pain, suffering, grief), that describes a form of emotional or existential distress caused by environmental change.

So that's what I've been feeling lately.

I know, right.

They're living the dream!

Better than this guy's job, for sure.

July!

There are lots of nice places to visit and stay up the coast, but I don't have experience living there. It's worth keeping in mind that holidaying and living in a place are very different things and we tend to look at holiday locations through a different lens.

On the other hand, if you want something like the coastal lifestyle, but within commuting distance to Brisbane City, have a look at Shorncliffe, Sandgate, Brighton and the Redcliffe Peninsula. Prices will typically decrease in that order, as you get further North. Shorncliffe and Sandgate are on the train line, which is always a positive and Redcliffe has a different line, although the station for that is away from the nicer coastal suburbs.

I'd recommended a day trip to the Shorncliffe Pier, where there is a little beach (although probably too cold to paddle in for your young one at the moment), a great playground (which is unfortunately currently closed for repairs), but plenty of fish and chips and ice cream to be had, or make use of the free BBQs.

From there, you can explore Sandgate town centre, and drive over the bridge to Redcliffe to have a look. There is a great artificial lagoon there, which is popular in summer.

Having moved to the Sandgate area a few years ago, I think it's a great balance of city services and coastal vibe, with nice small town feel and ready access on the motorway to the Sunshine Coast for weekend or holiday getaways.

That's awesome!

And you get to live on forever as soup in the Discworld.

Thanks for that.

I may give it one more shot.

That is fun!

Did you know him personally? What's the story?

I really tried to get into Bojack after seeing so many recommendations online, but just couldn't.

I like animation, I like clever dialogue and introspective drama. I'm fine with anti-heroes.

But I just didn't like any of the characters enough to care about their issues and how, or if they would be resolved.

What is the key takeaway that I'm missing by not watching?
