I'd put it more simply: New Greens leadership must stop Labor. They can continue to compromise with what is now a tripartite coalition of billionaire supporter political parties, and be consigned to irrelevance. Or become a clear progressive alternative. #auspol

David Shoebridge has called for the Greens to "seize this moment" in his first press conference as the party's new leader, with Steph Hodgins-May as the new deputy leader "We're going to deliver that sense of hope and opportunity that Australians are begging for"

weird how the government considers it has a duty of care about what information young people can see but not one to ensure they have a livable future, it's almost like its entirely about control and not protection in any way #auspol

hearing that Australians who are fortunate enough to have land in their own name want cuts to federal spending cool cool cool lets start with cutting the billions we give to landlords and their very pricey high school alma maters and the blue chip diesel subsidies and franking handouts💰

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Are Linux and Open Source Un-American?
Community
by Steve Coe
on February 21, 2001

Jim Allchin, Microsoft Windows operating system chief, was quoted in an article about open source last week. I advise any Linux user to go and read it if you haven't already, as it's great comedy material.

According to the hive mind of Microsoft, open source should be made illegal. There's no way around it, this is the bottom line. Want to write your own code and release it into the community? Congratulations, come with us Sir/Madam, we have this nice little grey room for you. Don't worry about the bars on the windows, they are there for our protection in case you somehow manage to write a graphics viewer or a Perl script to terrorize the world.

Ordinarily, a mere underling like Mr. Allchin wouldn't be taken too seriously, but Microsoft speaks with one voice, and we all know who he is channeling.

As a member of the Linux and Open Source communities, I am appalled and outraged by his comments and wish to respond. The article shows Microsoft is scared. Very scared. So, will they build a better product? Nah, to hell with it, they'll just get the government to outlaw the competition.

To all fools who claim it isn’t genocide until the ICJ rules it so: The Holocaust was genocide before Nuremberg; Rwanda was genocide before the ICTR. Armenia and Congo genocides were never legally judged as such. ICJ ruling establishes responsibility, it doesn’t create the facts of the event.

A reminder that this year the unemployment rate has gone up 0.56%pts - roughly an extra 87,000 unemployed. So in 15 min when the RBA raises rates again just remember 35-44yos on Jobseeker are almost 10 times more likely to die than those not on welfare: www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

Chart showing deaths per 100,000 by age
22-34yo: 17.1 no welfare; 137.0 on Jobseeker
35-44yo: 30 no welfare; 288.1 on Jobseeker
45-55yo: 83.4 no welfare; 427.0 on Jobseeker
55-64yo: 201.6 no welfare; 615.6 on Jobseeker

the horrific cornell gang rape case has me thinking about emma sulkowicz who alleged she was raped as a student at columbia in 2014 and never got any justice. it has me thinking about the physical and mental weight young women are forced to carry while their safety is subsumed by male potential.
