Media bias shows up in lots of ways, some less obvious. For example, every outlet that reports on the RBA interest rate hike without pointing out that its leaders get exorbitant salaries and taxpayer-funded half-price mortgages while they say that more people need to be unemployed.

Literally exactly what I was talking about yesterday, OpenAI must be treated as a hostile foreign organisation that has sought to hack our vital services. It needs a lot more than a "frank discussion", unless that discussion is with a judge in a court. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-09...

I also saw a statement from one of the victim's partners that said the owners and staff were incredibly rude and dismissive to them, apparently more concerned about the disruption to the day than the crazed biter or their slop stall. Terrible but unsurprising from large event managers these days tbh

If nothing else I think it's been made clear that excessive money and status within the current structures puts you completely out of touch with humanity and reality. Either it smooths out your brain like sandpaper or you actively choose preserving it over the integrity of your soul.

Hmmm how should I phrase this.. I do not like how the term "AI psychosis" has started to become used. It feels like it's becoming less and less common to use it to discuss the very real problem of companies encouraging people to lose their grip on reality and more using a mental illness as an insult

Every so often I catch a whiff of tracing/reference discourse on the wind, so here's your reaffirmation that tracing is good and useful, actually. The "trace" was about ~1 min of mapping the landmark shapes (nose, ears, fluff, tail), and the actual was ~5 min of reassembling what I'd learned.

Three images: the first, the pixel sprite of the dog Dozy, from Fields of Mistria. He has round, friendly features. The second sketch is a quick trace of the first, with stiff and hesitant lines. The third is a completely different pose, but you still see the landmark features of his big oval nose, fluffy chest, floppy ears, and shaggy tail.

Minns should have to answer for this for a long time to come.

In the aftermath of the February protest, NSW Premier Chris Minns rejected calls for an independent inquiry into police actions.

"I'm not going condemn the police for doing what we asked them to do, to keep the public safe. I'm not going to throw police under the bus" he told NSW parliament at the time.
