- Comment on Tim Apple calls for a rebellion! 6 days ago:
It was always a marketing gimmick, a cynical opportunistic fabrication developed by ad men using the language of the civil rights era to sell consumer electronics, using the profits to shamelessly supply capital to those who work to undo the gains won by the movements they exploit.

- Comment on One-fifth of Australian imports have probable links to forced labour 1 week ago:
I tried so hard to break free and only buy slavery-free, ethically manufactured or second hand clothing about 3 years ago. It’s hard and expensive but possible if you have enough money and the time to do all the research yourself. It really shouldn’t be this hard though. Slavery free needs to be the baseline not a feature you pay more for.

- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
The evidence presented to the South Australian Royal Commission found that false reports of sexual or domestic violence are rare, likely under about 5% of reported cases, and the Commission treats the belief that false allegations are common as a misconception not supported by research.

This was a preview summary of the data that’s awaiting publication by the University of Melbourne. It covered 1,100 people aged 13-17, and has been written by some Professor of Educational Psychology & Learning, Faculty of Education, The University of Melbourne.

Just a reminder that this is a summary of an academic paper by a reputable University.
In our research, we differentiate between interpersonal experiences, anchored in close relationships, and intergroup conflict that has generated a sense of “us” versus “them”: men versus women. We then examine how this intergroup social conflict is driving radicalisation.

- Comment on Prediction market trader 'Magamyman' made $553,000 on death of Iran's supreme leader 2 weeks ago:
For sure. I’m with you. It’s clearly gambling regardless of the ridiculous loop hole they’ve decided to put it through.

There’s a big gap between having a punt on two-up and incentivising blokes to throw their life savings away on whether 100 kids will be vaporised in class by tomorrow.

From the article
Most prediction markets, which have surged in popularity in recent months, are federally regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The agency views this new-fangled form of betting a “futures contract,” not a type of gambling.

I completely agree. I fucking hate gambling and I fucking hate how much Steam ignores all the damage they’re doing by chasing the easy money.

I’m really not sure about Australia. If you live up north you barely ever even wear shoes.if you live on a farm you better kick off those filthy gummies before you step in the house. If you’re a tradie, you’d better kick off those filthy Blundstones before you walk in. If you live in the suburbs, it’s a coin flip either way.
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 1 month ago:
Sure a per capita (18+) comparison would be more useful than NET expenditure? It might be lower but there are too many possible variables that aren’t accounted for.
For example the graph below seems to indicate younger audiences drink dramatically less beer and wine than older generations, but dramatically more Hard Seltzers.

- Comment on Meta - There's Levels To This Shit 3 months ago:
The main value of sewerage monitoring is overflow prevention. Utilities are fined for every litre of sewage that spills so the operators have to install monitoring to aid with blockage detection and prevention and spill response times.
The secondary benefit is for recycling wastewater, which makes up the vast majority of all sewage. Monitoring it helps with treatment to create additional drinking water without the need for additional storages and reducing reliance increasingly unreliable rainfall.
