Google to pay $68 million over allegations its voice assistant eavesdropped on users Class-action lawsuit alleged that Google's voice assistant illegally recorded and shared private conversations with advertisers.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"?

Well, it happens they were doing exactly that.

Undercutting housing affordability The Reserve Bank of Australia has two legislated aims, which are to contribute to price stability, measured by the consumer price index, and maintain "full employment", which it defines not as actual full employment but a level of unemployment that will produce price stability — currently around 4.3 to 4.5 per cent. Which is to say that both its mandated aims end up in the same place: controlling inflation. [emphasis mine]There used to be a third mandate - to contribute to the wellbeing of Australian citizens - but that was ditched for being too hard to define. [end emphasis] That is, the ABS doesn't measure it. (It did publish a National Study of Mental Health and Wellbeing four years ago, but that was really all about mental health).

let’s put the most important one in the too hard basket

YouTube video by Tukepuikko Steamed Hams but it's Mega Man Battle Network

I played a lot of Mega Man Battle Network and I can honestly say the level of detail and little gags on this is absolutely insane if you are the very narrow venn diagram of this audience

The portraits even animate the same!

It really has been a torrent of shit luck lately

just got fooled by a scam site which looked like a legit appliances site with discounted prices

Thankfully the bank flagged it immediately (it tried to charge US$500 to tiktok ads) and I’ve cancelled my card

Just a reminder that anyone can be scammed

Also do you wanna catch up? I can’t DM so there’s no way i can get in touch with you haha, it’s been too long! Would love a discord chat or something

Haha I am looking forward to at least one

Also you’re in a grown-up Jenny’s house, and they’re dirt poor. You help repair the house by contributing moolah, and you can’t just use the power points freely anymore, you have to make sure you’re contributing to the electric bill

Later on you can build wind powered power points you can use free!

YOU GET A CUTE LIL VACUUM CLEANER

By the way, the Japanese only DS Chibi-Robo got a full fan translation and it’s FANTASTIC (I have heard and not seen for myself)

But yeah it’s really sad it didn’t come out, unlike the un-fun Park Patrol it’s a return to form of the GameCube game

From the SEGAGENESIS community on Reddit: Victor Ireland from Working Designs is the reason the Lunar series is not on the Sega Genesis mini 2 outside of Japan Explore this post and more from the SEGAGENESIS community

there is a whole History going on with Working Designs

Also the localized version was sadly a Working Designs translation - they tend to be full of really dated memes and the guy who owns that company is bonkers and will not play ball with anyone, they’d essentially need to re-translate them (not really a bad thing)

Fully boxed PAL copies of Alundra 1 and 2)

I hunted them both down on ebay a year or two back! Full copies for a reasonable price! I started on Alundra 1 (holy SHIT there is a lot of strobing) but I never got to go back to it because my entire life got upended last year

I really want to go back to them!
