- Comment on E-bike rules in Australia will soon change with possible ban on sale of bikes faster than 25km/h 2 days ago:
With a motorcycle licensed rider and ADR compliance, sure. But not kids on toys.
- Comment on Australia’s under-16s social media ban is weeks away. How will it work – and how can I appeal if I’m wrongly banned? 5 days ago:
On Meta, it will be through Yoti’s facial assurance check, which requires users to take a video selfie to assess their age.
Can I send a video of the hair on my cock instead?

I’ve got one, and it works well enough when offline. Sure, I’d love for manufacturers to have a downloadable server to self-host their physical product, but that’s literally never happened.
- Comment on Fourier 2 weeks ago:
Both the FFT and this story are anchored on things that are imaginary.
- Comment on Should Newcastle to Sydney bullet train really be first link built of Melbourne to Brisbane route? 2 weeks ago:
In Melbourne, the same premier who got us the F1 also removed the train line to the F1… so we could build a casino.

Nice hallucination, clanker. Fuck off.
- Comment on Mozilla to Require Data-Collection Disclosure in All New Firefox Extensions 4 weeks ago:
This is a great change. I wonder how long before the hate brigade comes along and complains.
- Comment on Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings 4 weeks ago:
No. Employment is finite. Including someone means excluding someone else.
- Comment on Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings 4 weeks ago:
“DEI hire” has a different definition depending on whether you’re talking about design or implementation.
- Comment on Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings 4 weeks ago:
I get that hiring practices should not discriminate, but in practice, what I have seen is the opposite of meritocracy. My company had many DEI hires, and they were the first to go when the money got tight.

I have this and I will not change.
- Comment on Reducing power consumption of a desktop PC 5 weeks ago:
What’s crazy is that my small UPS consumes 20W at idle (fully charged; AC connected).

It’s funny that people get upset about one line in a config file that’s not even selected by default.
- Comment on I would give my life savings for something that eradicates them from my apartment 😌 1 month ago:
I’m surprised it’s so low. My brother in law just sent me a photo posing with the red-bellied black snake that he found in his suburban Melbourne backyard today.
- Comment on 4chan fined $26K for refusing to assess risks under UK Online Safety Act 1 month ago:
Imagine running a website for 20 years, changing absolutely nothing, and one day you’re being tageted because someone else on the other side of the planet changed something at their end.
Tell them to piss off.
- Comment on I would give my life savings for something that eradicates them from my apartment 😌 1 month ago:
The Australian ones (whitetails) are more populous, venemous, and aggressive than you could imagine in summer. I’d have a kill one inside my house almost every day.
It probably doesn’t help that our houses seal worse than an average tent.
- Comment on New California law requires AI to tell you it’s AI 1 month ago:
It would be nice if this extended to all text, images and video on news websites. That’s where the real damage is happening.
- Comment on Governments keep making our housing crisis worse – and they’ve just done it again 1 month ago:
AMPALL
- Comment on Google's shocking developer decree struggles to justify the urgent threat to F-Droid 1 month ago:
The stepping-stone would be de-googled Android like LineageOS or GrapheneOS. I think Linux is the end-game though.
- Comment on Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened 2 months ago:
frustrated by ads that feel irrelevant
What?
Do they think we have a friend-or-foe system that only shoots down advertisements from adversaries?
An ad is an ad, and should be terminated on sight.

On ABB I had to kick the connection and restart the NTD.
- Comment on Default Settings Are Eating The World 2 months ago:
It’s not attention to detail. Normies are affected by social pressures and emotions. Their behavioural patterns are baised towards acceptance.
Take that away, and an autist will assess the function and intent. The only desire is something that works, and is designed to work towards the user’s interests. Anything with a dark pattern will be set alight.
- Comment on @jack_toohey on why the housing crisis is not caused by migration 2 months ago:
Average income is not a useful metric. The higher the average gets, the further it drifts from the median.
