Tasmanian politicians are going to blow $1.1 billion on a stadium that will return less than half that in benefits, in a state with urgent health and education needs. Itโs testament to bogans

Predators on Roblox? Chris Hansen Reveals the Truth Parents Need to Hear | Have A Seat
Vine Seer has been raising the alarm about the direct connection between child predator networks rushing to bring in new #digitalID, #biometrics controls.
Making it all about #childsafety, has been a lie from the start.
Using the grief of parents is a manipulation tactic.

Euphemisms and false balance: how the media is helping to normalise far-right views
The mainstream media doesnโt simply cover far-right politics from a critical distance, it also helps to define what counts as politically acceptable.
When describing the far right, media outlets use soft euphemisms, descriptors such as โpopulistโ, โcontroversialโ or โanti-establishmentโ, avoiding more accurate terms like โracistโ or โauthoritarianโ.
AU MSM often treats racialised fears abt immigrant โthreatsโ as legitimate natl concerns.

How Austrade can help
Helping to power digital transformation
Australia is becoming a regional data centre hub, and a global leader for artificial intelligence (AI). We are helping to power digital transformation in the Asia Pacific and the adoption of artificial intelligence technologies scross broad sectors.
Our economy hosts an outsized AI industry, including over 1,100 private AI companies.
Adoption of AI is strong across society, with over 400 public firms developing or deploying AI solutions.
Our vibrant AI ecosystem and proximity to Asia means we are becoming a service provider for the region, with AI-related patents quadrupling over the past decade.
Sydney and Melbourne are both top-ten data centre markets in the Asia-Pacific region.
Australiaโs abundance of renewable energy resources means we are a great location for regional, green data centres. This includes supplying Asia via subsea cables.
Australia aims to become a global leader in developing and adopting trusted, secure and responsible artificial intelligence, led by the National Artificial Intelligence Centre.

Unlocking potential with Australian AI, an industry capability report on Australiaโs capabilities and expertise in artificial intelligence, highlights the achievements of Australian companies in the growing sector. Austraโฆ
HEY FRIENDS!! Did you know that Australia - #2 in the world for data centre investment - is now formally missing its climate targets thanks in large part to the resulting surge in power demand?

Introduction by Croakey: Victoria has followed Queensland and the Northern Territory in legislative changes that will see more children tried
โMeanwhileโฆdata from the ABS shows youth offending has been broadly in decline across the country & does not support an argument for a crisis in youth crime.

We could have cheaper power immediately, but this can only occur if the Govt puts Australians ahead of foreign energy users and gas cartel mega profits. Any gas reservation policy must be RETROSPECTIVE to achieve the right outcome. Itโs OUR gas! 1/2 #auspol
