  • Australia won’t retaliate against ‘unjustified’ US tariffs on steel and aluminum

    Jump

  • It sucks but it is what it is. Being an island nation dependant on imports, we don't have much weight to throw around without self destructing with our already fucked cost of living crisis.

  • US Senator introduces legislation which would make it illegal to download AI models from China, with penalties of up to 20 years in jail, a million dollar fine, or both

  • How else are they going to milk their talentless techbro cash cows? Can't have China popping that imaginary wealth bubble now can we. /s

  • Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them?

    Jump

  • I'd like to think Australia has a nice middle ground design to their sockets/plugs without the foot destroying bulk. Still get the shutter variants for bathrooms too.

  • Keep it simple

  • Jist wait until you have to start fucking around with multiple incompatible versions of python for different targets.

  • A road near me added obnoxious speed bumps in an industrial zone that was already reduced to 50km/h solely for the gambling seniors to get to the RSL (Returned Services League, a glorified casino for seniors/veterans), again built in an INDUSTRIAL ZONE with frequent semi-trucks.

  • FlushMe app - Bizarro

  • I wish I was kidding when I say there exist asshole recognition tech already. They'll just attach that to your advertiser ID so their worldwide network of 'smart toilets' can deliver targeted ads to every stall and urinal you visit.

    New Planet: Day 1

  • That may be so, but then you things like hayfever where the immune system overreacts to the dumbest shit every year for days on end. I could totally see some innocent extraterrestrial microbe sending the immune system into a self destructive meltdown, or straight up anaphylaxis.

  • Japan wants its hardworking citizens to try a 4-day workweek

    Jump

  • a nation so hardworking...

    Or hardly working given how backwards and out of date the work culture is, but sure let's make this out to be the fault of employees who are likely overworking due to low pay. An extra day off isn't going to fix the systemic cultural issues, class discrimination, xenophobia... the list could go on and on.

    Calling this innovative when Japan has yet to modernize its business practices, or admitting it's an issue, is disingenuous at best.

  • Do you have this guy at work? I do

  • Sums up every Node project I've had the displeasure of looking at. The lock file being the only thing holding the twisted web of versions keeping that franken-app running between a minefield of incompatibilities and buggy hacks.

  • My point exactly. If FreeCAD refines that framework and documents it well, community plugin support could drive many new features and quality of life improvements into the main branch.

  • I'm really hoping FreeCAD gets the Blender treatment. ONDSEL is already pushing it pretty far, but once extensibility is more robust and the new user experience improved, I believe that'll be the tipping point.

  • Stop using Opera Browser and Opera GX

    Jump

  • Same with Express/Nord VPN sponsorships. Many people debunked the adverising BS they were spinning about blocking tracking when really it only masked a tiny subset.

    As someone who studied infosec, those ads were infuriating. Now I just sponsor block it all because I'm beyond tired of it.

  • queer.af, a Mastodon instance, has been killed by the Taliban

  • God help us all if we have to break out the Emus
