We don’t think the case for this has been made. One constant in the global history of policing is that every weapon given to cops, they will eventually use. Therefore, every force escalation requires compelling justification.

Since the 'ceasefire' in Gaza, 1400+ Palestinians have been killed. 0 Israelis have been killed. The 'ceasefire' is not a Ceasefire but simply a protection for Israel, while Israel are allowed to go on killing.

My only comment on the latest AI bullshit to darken my skyline is this: folks who think AI is "thinking" are saying a whole lot about how they believe "thinking" works and what counts as "thinking." If you follow the implications of this belief, it's not good. Not good at all.

We cannot make housing genuinely affordable while insisting that house prices keep rising. For most existing owners, lower values change neither the home they live in nor what a replacement home costs, Michael Keating writes. #auspol #Housing #HousingAffordability

Lower house prices should be welcomed
Restoring home ownership requires substantially lower house prices – and for most existing homeowners, falling property values need not leave them materially worse off.

"That admission should be the headline: fossil fuel CCS relies on public money to be viable, and oil and gas companies invest very little of their own" @louisemorris.bsky.social on 🔥here at @thepointau.bsky.social CCS keeps fossil fuels on life support: thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...
I sat through the Carbon Capture APAC Summit in Melbourne, an international gathering of carbon capture and storage (CCS) hopefuls. What struck me most was how many speakers remarked on seeing the same faces as they did last year.

There are three CCS conferences scheduled in Melbourne this year alone. The fundraising and spruiking for this subsidy-reliant industry is in hyperdrive.

Last year, the industry’s pitch was modest: CCS as ‘part of a suite of solutions’. This year, it had grown teeth, but beneath the surface was something closer to panic. Australia wasn’t sold as a country doing its bit. It was sold as a hub, somewhere with enough empty land and ocean to take everybody else’s carbon dioxide, too. Speakers from Singapore and Malaysia were unusually candid: Australia has vast, sparsely populated land and sea, geology practically begging to be a landfill for a region that’s run out of places to put its pollution.
