Btw the eSafety commissioner gets a yearly salary of $533,550 🙃 I don’t know about you, but I think that salary deserves at least a shade of competence
Ben Schwarz@benschwarz.bsky.social · 2d agoAustralia’s eSafety commissioner buried a report (released Friday afternoon) that shows the under 16 social media ban didn’t tangibly reduce teen social media use, and also resulted in parents tuning out of kids usage.

One day I arrived home to the front door swinging in the wind, the smell of cigarettes wafting through the house — I’d been robbed, and they took almost everything I owned (including my clothes and underwear) Cops took a few hours to arrive, wrote a form, and that was the end of it.

Been working on a blog post and successfully procrastinated the final push. Short vacation starts tomorrow, sooooo I’ll finish it when I get back. BRB, gonna catch some warmth and food tourism in Singapore ✌️
Has anyone done a study on why there’s so many lens flares in the final season of THE BEAR? It was absolutely gratuitous and made no sense whatsoever.
Rolled up on this mob yesterday. Rare white kangaroo, and the buff stuff big boi too

I’m glad I didn’t see the AWS billing bug on my account. I think I would’ve thrown up on the spot and been convinced a key had somehow leaked 🤮
It’s often reported that AI / data centres use a lot of water. Has anyone seen detailed reports that outline usage clearly?
He's calling this an AI plan for Australia, but the future he's mapped out is controlled by American billionaires, not Australian communities. What we got today was a red carpet for Meta, Palantir and Amazon, leading straight to the PM's office.

Can't even see some arty films without your PII getting leaked. Australia desperately needs better privacy and security laws.
I just gotta know — what’s wrong with the people who design hotel bathrooms to be all glass?
I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
