I acknowledge the traditional owners of this land on which I live, the melukerdee people of the South East Nation. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

Try looking for Start Screen Options under Advance settings, some pointers here, you can't block them but I just changed mine to Auto Run Last App which starts with something other than the Samsung homepage: www.samsung.com/au/support/t...

For those wondering why ON are getting such a huge lift in its media profile. You can change this in your settings - start up options.

Thanks found it in Settings -> Start Screen Options, where you can set it to return to the last app you had open instead of the home screen.

I just read the other day here that Samsung and LG signed a deal with Murdoch that ensures every time you turn on your TV it defaults to 24 News, it was driving me crazy. Found the setting to remove this default, do yourself a favour and find your settings too !

Massive shoutout to @tasland.bsky.social for a fabulous afternoon of science, art and Tassie with their Science Symposium yesterday. Loved all the info about our local plants and wildlife and was especially moved by the talk from Bridget Webster on "Poeisis in the Anthropocene". 10/10 all round. 💚

And this is the headline in Murdoch media, as if it had nothing to do with problem gambling, a govt enquiry or the evilness of sports betting. Unbelievable!
Ex-NRL star did drugs with gambling execs.

This is why Musk bought the White House for Trump in 2024. The level of corruption going on inside government is off the charts and I’m sure when this nightmare is over the true extent of that corruption will be way beyond our worst fears 😲🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Thanks to the MorePerfectUS team for the clip.

Please post & repost (ad infinitum), even if you're not Australian or in Australia. If you're as horrified as many of us are, that this could happen here in Australia, for the reasons that it did, don't be. It's not the first time & won't be the last but we cannot let it stop us speaking out.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

If Russia and China conspired to destroy the U.S. military with a Manchurian candidate I don't think they could have picked a better choice than Hegseth. The damage he's doing will take decades to fix.

Me too! It helps to know what you want, be super precise and not let it get too far ahead of itself before testing outcomes. I use it to write bash scripts to automate command line tasks mostly.. cause while I can do it, I am so slow at it. So its still kinda me "coding" but faster.
