Australia’s love of an SUVs & utea is insanity - or as explained here a mix of narcissism, a need for adventure and an incorrect assumption of safety. And it’s all subsidised by taxpayer money while EVs get zero support. Ridiculous www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Everything you memorized in school to pass a test or get a grade no longer matters anymore. Computers and AI know more facts, figures, dates, names, equations, and data points than any human brain could ever retain. What matters now is the abstract. Complex thinking. The future.

Staggering in its audacity and intention to incite and inflame. The Chief of Staff who green lit this harebrained scheme should be fired immediately. Shameful by the Murdoch press.

Fabulous hour with @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social and @aoc.bsky.social - the Democrats (and similar here in Australia) need more fresh perspectives like AOC's. youtu.be/eeheoxWzf2o?...

The Brave New Social Media World Zuckerberg has ushered in on FB resulted in me getting this AI generated fake story about King Elon's generous largesse, accompanied by an AI-generated summary of the comments that complain about such AI-generated fake news that function as pro-plutocrat propaganda.

The RBA has got it wrong, punishing workers with persistently high rates as the economy flails. "Profits have been driving inflation. Companies have fattened their margins, and if your only response is to target workers, you're punishing the victims," explains Stephen Long.

A month since this legislation was rammed through parliament with 1 day of public submissions and this is already a mess of clashing codes with no clear solution in sight. ‘Hand movements’ to determine age? This is going to be an expensive hot mess. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

What a mess - and it's us the paying customer that is wedged between the enshittification of ride-sharing platforms and a taxi industry up to its usual dodgy tricks. And claims this is a 'minority' of taxi drivers ripping off customers is laughable. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Another tick in the decentralisation box for social media, and ideally the internet as a whole.

The Australian governments social media ban is a ruched, cynical, vote grabbing and poorly thought through attempt to ‘support’ children from bad content online. Youth mental health groups don’t support it. Will be easily circumvented by digital savvy kids. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
