Leaked business lobby plan pushed redefining copyright to let AI companies train without paying The Business Council of Australia proposed, then ditched, a plan to amend the Copyright Act so AI training on copyrighted work is no longer considered infringement.

A leaked draft from Australia’s business lobby shows it had a plan to change the law to allow AI companies to train on Australian data without pay or permission.

Military plane and two jets flying in formation over a small town in rural NSW.

Just saw two big military planes fly over. The second one had two jets flying in formation next to it that weren't recorded on the flight radar apps unlike the big guys.

It's the system that enabled him that is the problem. He has merely accelerated the process of breakdown.

As a refugee, I have lived in limbo for 13 years. Why are only some Iranian women worthy of Australia’s protection? | Fatemeh Lahmidi First we were put in offshore detention on Nauru. Even now in Australia, my family live on short-term bridging visas, with constant uncertainty about our future

Are we still trying to pretend that we are 'good' people living in a 'fair-go' country?

Fuel quality rules relaxed to rush 100 million litres into Australia's supply Australia will bring in 100 million more litres of petrol by allowing a higher level of sulfur content in its fuel for the next 60 days, Energy Minister Chris Bowen says, as the country reckons with p...

I gather high sulphur diesel kills the catalytic converter, which is why ultra-low sulphur fuel was introduced in the first place. That's 'selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia/urea' ... which is what AdBlue is, aqueous urea solution.

Australia cannot protect everyone at risk in Iran – but no one is suggesting that’s our role. What we can do is provide at least temporary respite to people who’ve already been approved to work, study or visit family or friends here’

Ok, let me get this straight.

The Australian Government is backing a war that most Americans think their president started as a distraction from the Epstein files.

Cool and normal.

Does any Football Association or fan really feel safe travelling to America with current Middle East war?
Really! Safe! Safe to travel and not be detained & sent to South America.
Safe to travel and not be attacked by a bomb or gunmen to watch a game.
#FIFAWorldCup truly seems cooked.

The ABC is becoming more untrustworthy by the hour.
The same selective (Lebanese) 'truth' is used about Iran.
Every disgruntled Iranian diaspora person
(often a monarchist) is treated like an absolute truth-teller.

Ponder this as you fill up with $$$ petrol

The Aus Gov has acted on 0/10 of the International Energy Agency recommendations on increasing fuel security...four years after they came out.

Both major parties just leave all the decisions up to big business.

The patron saint of neoliberalism, Francis Fukuyama, whose ridiculous book argued liberal capitalist "democracy" was the "end of history", has now come to admit that North Korea was right about nuclear weapons, which are the only reason the US empire hasn't bombed and invaded it.

This is not Iran.
This is not Lebanon.

This is Gaza tonight.

Israel is currently raining bombs on 3 different countries, targeting civilians and vital infrastructure.

This is not the behavior of a “victim.”

This is terrorism.

It’s more than alarming, how Australian politicians have slowly capitulated to Israel/Zionist lobby over time — bringing us to where we are today — criminalising freedom of expression and speech at the behest of a genocidal, racist ethnostate.
