Professional kleptocrats, neo-nazi enablers and Australia-haters, the Liberal National Party announced they are killing the southern Phase IV extension of the G-Link Gold Coast tram network. (Yes, the name is awesome, and yes I'm very juvenile).
Cited reason: "But it also caused significant community backlash, with concerns that the light rail would promote overdevelopment in beachside suburbs."
Possible future overdevelopment? On the Gold Coast? I'm clutching my f*cking pearls.
THE.
GOLD.
COAST.
🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
Unlike G-Link, that train hasn't just already left the station. It's half-way to fucking Perth. The GC needs G-Link to try and do *something* to help deal with the worst effluent of the car-centric, coastline killing fuckfest that's already been put there.

Force him to use his own company to demolish his own mansion, at his own expense, and pay the entire cost of a complete rehabilitation, and the maximum legal fine for every single day from 2020 to the end of the rehab works - $5,000,000 per day, since he was "smart" enough to put the development through his company, and not his own accounts.
You can't afford it, mate? Too bad. Should have thought of that before you built a McMansion in a protected area.

Creating an account should not be required.
Providing your phone number should not be required.
2FA should not be required.
Using the app should not be required.
Using Chrome should not be required.
The site should work with screen readers and magnifiers.
It should be low bandwidth and tolerate high latency.
The vendors contact information and address should always be clearly and clearly presented, with a real email address and direct-to-human phone number.

Albo is basically doing a geopolitical "thoughts and prayers"

So #SpaceKaren 's data harvesting rocket toy has fallen over. The entire global #Starlink system is completely offline. Organisation I work for relies heavily on it (which I feel was a mistake from day one) and were completely cut off from our own people and the communities we serve accross a massive swarth of the tropical North.
Don't rely on nazi eugenics billionaires for critical infrastructure.

Good to know! Why do we ship things from the other side of thebworld when we can grow pretty much any delightful thing we can imagine right here in our own environment?
I'm fortunate in that Daintree is sold locally, and they even have a stall and honesty box at the gate :)

Drank the last of my #Nerada tablelands grown tea. No more "no nonsense" regular tea is grown in Australia, as Nerada now import everything and repackage it here. I'm not going with the random mixed-origin clear-cut-the-land-and-damned stuff if I can avoid it, especially as we do have a small local planting still clinging on.

So they're basically baited traps. I mean, are we even surprised?

Sounds about right... something something October 7 something something self defence something something exterminate everyone to save Reichfuhrer Bibi something something only drmocracy in the middle east

I have a new home environment, and there is so much to learn about belonging to her. Today is a tentative first step toward making that bond.... a first act of devotion to Daintree 💚🌳🌴💚

The LNP hate Australia. They hate our unique environment, our wildlife, our forests, our reefs, our rivers, the first Australians, oir egalitarianism, our rights, our democracy, and those who are willing to die to protect all these beautiful people. Yet they have the audacity to wave the flag and claim to be patriots.
They disgust me.

I'm going to say it. The UI for #Pixeldroid is super frikkin confusing and needs work. Which is description and which is alt text, people? Make it clear. Make it simple. I'd use the pixelfed a lot more if we had a really decent standalone android client. #Pixelfed

Medicare has its flaws, but when you see the shit in America, damn does it work well.

I agree. Having one central high secure vault like backup seems like a shaky proposition. Safety in numbers seems more relevent here. 30tb sounds like a lot, and it is, but even a modest regional university likely has a few server racks with this sort of space on it, especially on off-line archive space. Distribute as widely as possible, rather than seeking perfection.

Some good and beautiful news. Five years after the invasive rodent eradication program on #LordHoweIsland native birds, plants and insects have rebounded far faster than expected, with Lord Howe Woodhen population increasing tenfold to over 2,000 birds. Coral and palm recovery has rebounded from drought and bleaching.
Our paradise Island is doing well, a testament to a culture of belonging, protection and a close bond to the place to which they belong.

Kogan is kinda crap but probably the nearest analogue I can think of. Honestly I just use BigW and Bunnings marketplaces for stuff I can't find locally and do click and collect as much as poss. Amazon "prime" delivery is a joke in regional areas.

100% this. I don't mind a fun bit of sci-fi escapism on Pandora.The difference between me and psychopathic, ecocidal tech billionaires is that I fully accept it's escapist fiction and not actual reality. Humans can't survive in space, nor on Mars. The quest is as futile as it is destructive, wasteful and unethical. But hawks want their "Star Wars" missile systems and billionaires dream of gouging the resources of out asteroids with indentured workers every bit as much as they already gouge the resources out of the rainforests of Congo and Papua with the same unfree labour.
