So who pays for the health outcomes of residents and employees?

You will already have begun to hear the arguments regarding Labor's AI plans from the business media and conservatives that it's like regulating smoke. Thankfully we don't need to regulate the AI, only the entities and organisations developing it, that's a much more tangible target. #auspol

The stick (or carrot, depending on whether you see profit loss as a motivator or a punishment) of domestic roaming could be that your carrier has to pay the other carrier for the time spent camping on their network.

Sounds like they've taken inspiration from Trump's wall of steel.

Is this not what is already happening though? Why is Barnaby speaking in the future-tense?
One Nation conservative politician Barnaby Joyce commented that Grace Tame's comment, "from Gadigal to Gaza, globalise the intifada"would lead to (future-tense) a situation where by" People will be, on the premise of their religion, of their race, they will be murdered."

I think a ballroom was a mistake, he should have repainted the White House orange first. That tan really stands out on a white background.

A "conservative activist" is a contradiction in terms.

@xbox.com Hey peeps, when BLOPS dropped onto the Windows Store earlier this year along side a bunch of other Cole o' Dooties, I figured visibility inside the Xbox app would be a minimum requirement however this seems to have been overlooked for this one game.

In the American Revolution, British satirists used elaborate French hairstyles to mock the rebel colonists, who got support from France against their mutual enemy. Fascinating to see this imagery come full circle with a very different meaning. #NoKings

@vanbadham.bsky.social I'm really enjoying the Dusted series on ABC Listen. Can't wait for the third and final episode.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

@antipovertycentre.org I may have forced the counsellor at the JSP to quit her job. I've been going over it in my head. In one of our last conversations last December, I explained the dynamics of capitalism through the formation of markets. 🧵

Hey, @xbox.com. I see classic CoD experiences dropping on the PC app. Wondering when Infinite Warfare and CoD4 Remastered might be ingested into the PC app too.

Standing on a rocky cliff top, a wide lake opening out below with trees lining the opposite bank and a chair lift terminus hidden beyond, galvanised suspension wire hanging over the lake. Somewhere near Cataract Gorge, Tasmania.

In the foreground, left, middle and right. A tree casting a long shadow over the foreground, a multi-level flowing waterway and a Japanese style waterwheel. In the distance a Japanese style bridge crossing, the railings painted in red. Japanese Garden, Royal Botanical Gardens, Hobart.

So I posted something plausibly amusing as a reply to someone. I thought I might get a like... or none, but it's ticked over 100 and I don't know what to do with the popularity. Please provide advice.

Vast open fields leading up to a mountain range in the distance, blanketed in bushfire smoke, reddish hues, orange above that as the setting sun casts its own glow and a fading light blue above that. Standing below a tree with branches hanging down from the top of the photo. Somewhere near Bothwell, Tasmania

An overcast evening, thunderstorm in the distance, a lightning bolt shooting through the storm clouds, arcing across a far away mountain range. Somewhere near Dunalley, Tasmania

It feels weird, several followers just randomly hitting follow. Is it a mistake? I'm a nobody... Knee-jerk is to block as they must be bots but they post like humans... is this Bluesky not being X?
