Hearing my sister say that Trump hadnt done anything bad whilst in power. Or that the things happening werent due to him. And having to bite my tongue because shes only jist back into our lives after years out of it.

I absolutely hate being micromanaged.

Discovering people call these different things around the world. What do you call them

Facebook: omg you are hurting your cats health if you dont buy them a fountain. Cants HATE stagnant water and need fresh flowing water My cats: drink from pot plant bases the most stagnant water there is over their freshly poured filtered water. I wont be buying a fountain.

Folks should get electricity rebates for heatwaves say $10 for each day. And would need to know in advance which days covered so they know they can run the aircon and still put food on the table. Vs the cost of lost productivity and actual heat related illness…. This would be a winning idea.

We hit 45C here today. 41C expected tomorrow and min temp 34C overnight. Gonna be a hot hot night.

Whats not in this equation? How many of us are powering our homes from solar not going to the grid… the “demand met by rooftop solar” is utterly useless thing to have on there. Its literally just whats going to the grid from rooves

Suspect we are load shedding. Had a 10 min outage. Got sms immediately it would be back up in 10 minutes. How could they know it would be so fast if it isnt load shedding?

Tell me again why we cant change the date? www.facebook.com/share/r/17q4...

15 people shot on Bondi Beach and the government introduced new legislation within days. 1 man killed by a king hit, government introduced new legislation within days. 2 or more women killed every week at the hands of partners or former partners and …. crickets. Their priorities are wrong!

Renmark in the SA Riverland is now forecast to be 49C on Tuesday with up to 40km/h winds

Same goes for out fuel stores Albo. We cant risk it being on US soil any more. Time to setup to store it here where it always should have been done. Make some jobs and build it. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

This has always bothered me. If they can price meat packs on variable weight, then they can do the same for fuit and veg. A price per item with an average expected weight range per item and a per kilo price. Refunded the difference once packed. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Good god.

It's weird I was REPEATEDLY told that payment processors "had" to ban all nsfw to mitigate the risk of processing CSAM. So if that's true then why wasn't X immediately dumped by every one of those payment processors when Grok turned into an automated CSAM generator?

This is terrible. But my poor brain totally thought this was about shaking incubators somehow for far too long before it twigged

It is illegal for Australians to kill birds or animals facing extinction. If you are Korea Zinc, however, you can relax. You are already one of the largest zinc, lead and silver producers in the world, and no such law will prevent your growth. satpa.pe/NswON4D

Remember how everyone wanted an ipod. Then an iphone. How laptops became ubiquitous? Wifi? Adsl2+ and HFC? Good tech doesnt need to be forced on the public. They can spot it and will make it standard fare. If they are shunning it what does that tell you?

So apparently i live in an area now covered by two yellow fruit fly zones. Not that anyone would know. A council post alerted me on even how to check although the website linked was like 5 clicks to get to the actual zone maps. Why wouldnt gov letterbox the area if they want to actually contain it?

Hit about 44 today here. Tues and wed expected to be the same or hotter.

Ok saying it again. It sucked in vic and its sucking in SA. Do NOT put heatwave advisory zones on the alert map. It looks like a fire warning and then you cant see the actual fire zones for all the heatwave warnings. Or at least make it something you can toggle on and off

I went to a GRC once where the hotel had glass doors on the bathroom. I was sharing the twin room with a colleague. We had to leave the room for showers and we tried to avoid using the loo in the room as much as possible. Its a terrible concept. www.theguardian.com/travel/2026/...

All the team pinging after 5pm on a friday wanting calls because they didnt plan ahead properly. Please. My long weekend has started i am cracking a drink.

Well this is gonna be fun

Jared Leto has 2 acting speeds - insane and over the top or lack of any emotion. Its fine when they cast him for roles needing that (Joker, Tron) but Morbius shows what happens when you dont. He might work for Skeletor who was always over the top and i hope he is in trailer out tomorrow.

Omg so this. What I’ve seen worked on is incredible and wont be used 100 times a second so benefit cost ratio is reasonable because saved lives. GenAI is slop that they tell us we need but really we dont.

Good to have a final reminder that these laws are only about preventing people criticism Israel for committing genocide and have nothing really to do with hate (other than ensuring Zionists can continue to practice it) live.thepoint.com.au

I mean if you did it right this could be a good thing. Namely using AI to subtitle more shows for same subtitle budget.but then using subtitlers to review and add some local context. Making shows more accessible. But you know they will just cut subtitling budget and staff instead. Sigh

They say its coming of fatberg but not why they would be round….

Climate change is really, really expensive

So bummer is that when we had install of our solar battery system 10kw inverter wasnt available. So our 6kw (they didnt even know that was avail til i asked) clips our solar system back to 6kw (battery is DC so charging up to 6kw on top of 6kw AC thankfully). Hoping we can parallel connect a 3kw

Every single post that's like 'here's a timeline cleanse' or 'interrupting your doomscrolling' is fantastic and I love them all, genuinely just extremely useful interventions / breaks that knock you out of a spiral. Do not stop them 👍🏽

Contemplating an upgrade to our solar battery setup before battery rebate drops again in may. The guy seemed concerned we only wanted to buy extra 6.4kw battery when subsidy can only be used once. Yeah but mate we arent made of money and we dont need more than that esp with adding western solar
