• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Films and video games have age classifications. Should books?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not opposed. It’s a clear guideline. Information for parents. Parents let kids watch R rated movies all the time. The issue will be if they start getting declared unclassified and banned.

  There’s precedent, American Psycho was given an R+ rating when it was released and to be honest it deserved it. The capitalistic debauchery of the characters was grossly offensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Legendary film critic David Stratton dies peacefully aged 85⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What a huge loss!

  I lost all touch with movies when they wrapped up The Movie Show. You always knew whether a movie was in your wheelhouse based on who out of David and Margaret hated it and why.

  But that was a different time.

  Yes, good job, anybody with opinions you don’t like is a bot.

  I fucking knew it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mushroom murderer tried to kill husband with pasta, cookies and curry, court was told⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now I get why Tom Gleeson said he’d play the husband in a show about this case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Josh Taylor: Australia’s potential surrender of creative content to tech giants for free is shocking. Labor must decide where it stands⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Listening to the politicians today on Afternoon Briefing. There is a lobby campaign from Big Tech saying “You need to hurry or you’ll miss out”. You can tell the word are coming straight from lobbyists because the politicians literally had no clue what that actually means.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should big tech be allowed to mine Australians’ text and data to train AI? The Productivity Commission is considering it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds good but it’s all bullshit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database, faked data, told fibs

  They really are coming for our jobs

  I have tested the spouse approval of Radicale and can confirm it has received the Spousal Seal of Approval^TM^, in our house anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unless users take action, Android will let Gemini access third-party apps⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes and you have to untoggle it for each and every app.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that 158 families made up 50% of all US Presidential Campaign Spending⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And they all have addresses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I worked at an escort agency. This is how it changed my attitude to sex⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s funny how many receptionists brothels have

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI can kill information⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  An increasing number of people I know already go straight to ChatGPT to search for things that are not direct websites links.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australia's sunscreen showdown — and why SPF might be misunderstood⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can imagine a scenario where it was “rubbed in” like chemical sunscreen until invisible, and gave the absurdly low score as a genuine result of misapplication

  That would make sense.

  I agree that working with Choice to understand would have been a much wiser PR decision

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Utilities want control of consumer solar and batteries to help reverse price spikes they just engineered⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Rent seekers gonna seek rent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australia's sunscreen showdown — and why SPF might be misunderstood⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Possibly, or the standards are dodgy. The PR person from the brand that had an SPF of 4’s spin was basically everything is SPF 50 if you put enough on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is roller lad discrimination!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No Cooter D’ing is probably reasonable there might be a school nearby

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Christopher Luxon ranked Australia's most trusted world leader in new poll⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Guaranteed that the majority of respondents know fuck all about him and responded how they did based purely on him being leader of New Zealand and would have said the same if the Prime Minister was a pou whenua

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Make it stop⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are too many career politicians. People who would struggle to hold down a position in any other profession.

  They join a party, learn how to get nominated and elected at college/university, find themselves in office the just grift until they die.
