Our great ally, our partner of shared values and shared military, is now on Russia’s side against Ukraine. Buying its diesel, dropping sanctions, rooting for Putin.

Amazing to think that all the while they were fumbling and bumbling my Dad's access to care with his gold card, they were also doing this other heinous shit to everyone else as well. The public service needs a clear-out, and there's a whole generation waiting to do some civic service.

Nice to see VS candidate for Bass Chris Jobe getting a mention in Crikey for talking sense on potholes at a recent candidate forum on Phillip Island (article link below). No doubt there will be many such moments 'halfway between sincere amusement and genuine irritation' in this campaign!
Crikey article excerpt quoting socialist candidate Jobe linking a drop in road quality to privatised maintenance under Kennett; a crowd corrects "16 years" to 27, and Jobe says, "I'm saying it's privatisation's fault."

That's the thing about some of those forerunner titles; the constraints they were developed under forced some very inventive solutions.
A four panel comic showing artists of different eras from the modern era to the renaissance in the first three panels, each wondering if they will ever be as good as the old masters.
The final panel shows a caveman who has drawn a simplistic animal on the wall and saying to themself "I'm the best."

One thing I find endlessly funny about the rise of AI is that it has revealed that there is a large number of people who believe that the reason they wrote essays at school or university is their teachers were desperately waiting for them to provide a definite answer to “Lear: what’s up with him?”

As a long-time porter of titles I know most keenly that you can't please everyone. =) I bet half the complaints about this one had more to do with the hardware not being a full-on arcade machine, than anything to do with the gameplay, which I bet is super fun!

If it works, that's pretty cool; I didn't think
would ever see this implemented (I also didn't
expect LLMs to exist).
However, this is not something you can PR
here, or anywhere. You sent me a nearly 50k
line diff, unasked for, completely LLM built, and
you somehow expect me to review it. There is
SO MUCH unrelated garbage here. Never
minding all of the docs and Python, you've
somehow touched basically all of the upstream
HDL, which already had MSU1 support, so idk
what in the world you're doing.
This kind of behavior is not acceptable. You are
infringing on the time and brainpower of people
by pushing "your" content that little/no of your
brainpower went into; completely unrequested.
I hope for the sake of all responsible
maintainers that you do not do such a thing
again.
Again, I think it's cool that you and your LLM
supposedly got this to work. It has no place in
my world.

Maybe this is just me, but having the platform tell me "Remember to always check AI-generated content for accuracy." suggests that they know it's unreliable and that when it inevitably fucks up any mistakes will be considered the user's fault.

Australia wants a UN Security Council seat and promises to uphold international law. But from Gaza to Indigenous rights and Diego Garcia, its own record shows how selectively those rules can be applied, John Menadue writes. #auspol #UNSC

Australia preaches the rules-based order. Its record tells another story
Australia is campaigning for a UN Security Council seat on a promise to uphold international law and defend middle powers. Its record on Gaza, Indigenous rights, military alliances and international rulings tells a far less consistent story.

A drawing of a small blobby figure inside of an enclosure with string coming off it, with text saying "introducing Gurpo, the new wearable personal assistant. Gurpo is not a computer program, he's a real tiny guy who is trapped inside your medallion necklace. 
Gurpo hates you, but is incapable of doing anything about it, and he has to answer your questions or he gets electrocuted. It's non-lethal.
If you shake his enclosure hard enough, gurpo will throw up!"
