Is the cat having an existential crisis also real?

While its good Mozilla wants to not rely on sponsored ads and search functions, a subscription service where users pay to have their new CEO in the dick whenever he says anything about implementing AI would generate far more income than and also potentially halt market share loss to non AI browsers.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

nature is healing

Heads up that the Discord face video age verification system requires you to remove your glasses, then has written instructions on the screen, including moving closer or further away.

No doubt verification is partly an estimate of how bad your eyesight is based on how long this takes.

Its good to see we have a social media ban because wippa is a shit dad who cant be fucked paying even a sliver of attention to what his kids are doing. This is a perfectly good reason to change legislation.

Counter proposal: public hangings of tech billionaires.

Bureau of Meteorology defends unpopular new weather website In a week of wild weather across the country, the Bureau of Meteorology's new website missed the mark.

This has been worked on for at least three years.
I think if you have been working on something that long and the response from the public is this bad you should probably just apologise and quit.

its incredible what people will make up to not deal with the memories of having all their childhood medical done by the vet at the dog track.

thankyou purplepingers for your inventing of socialisms in all its forms, even tasmanian

But you need to keep left so private security has more room to assault people

I repeatedly scared the shit out of Geoffrey rush at a blind corner. Apparently he walked his dog on the same path I took to the supermarket back 2020-2022. It amuses me greatly because the dudes a massive prick.

Stairs are a luxury. should have just left it an open hole and passengers can jump down, I'm sure their fall would have been broken by the weaker plebs forced to take public transport who couldnt hack it. Its not like its Flinders Street or something.

a clear victory for managed democracy

"I shit myself" should mean that you shit out a tiny version of you. Not just doing something normal on the train

I thought they got rid of the chatpad

A short sighted cash grab for developer mates and sinking the boot into some of the most vulnerable members of society. On top of it all, just to add insult to injury, likely to be constructed worse than the current towers.

Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus.

100% didn't fit the brief. A lot of the judges calls this season have been incredibly disappointing. Jonathan got absolutely robbed a couple of episodes back too.

If you think climate protests are annoying and inconvenient, wait till you experience this. This is Victoria, right now.

A graphic showing that Kermit the Frog and Waldorf the heckler both appeared in 120 episodes of The Muppet Show.

Only two characters appeared in every episode of The Muppet Show.

"Including everyone" allows racists, terfs, and other assorted scumbags and creepy fuckers cover by association. This push is just twitter weirdos upset they don't have instant eclout on moving to bsky and have to do horrible things like "not be a psychopath" or "make an effort"

So a double win.

Because that's not what was asked there.

Southern cross and glenhuntly where superficial badgeovers, not really name changes.

A quiet part of me still thinks we should have kept those two named after the old north and south city police stations.

Yeah that too. The most impressive part of that announcement was how well it unified all the various state departments.

Yeah it wasnt the short term naming, it was because it would have meant a complete rewriting and reprogramming of multiple rail systems because of the name/location code change. Thousands of pieces of equipment would have had to be manually, physically renamed too.

A photocopied sign attached to dozens of shelves in the local Woolworths supermarket. “Temporary Product Shortages We're experiencing temporary supply issues as a result of industrial action at our Distribution Centres. We acknowledge this is frustrating and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience. We're working hard to resolve this. We do appreciate your patience and thank you for your understanding.”

Gotta feel sorry for Woolworths. If only there was some way they could resolve this. Any way at all, that they could work hard to resolve.

Fare evasion isn’t good but it is a distraction from the real problem. Transit agencies can’t & shouldn’t rely heavily on fares for their operating expenses. State & local governments need to find new, stable, ample sources of revenue. Transit is a public good. It’s time to treat it like one.
