I wish it were as simple as deleting my accounts with meta, Google and Microsoft. University requires I have MS, Android effectively requires I have Google and if get rid of Facebook I'll lose access to marketplace, my local community and people will probably just not talk me

I'm gen z so maybe it's embarrasing that I've got no understanding of this slang

Also GitHub has full-text search and doesn't filter profanities if you're looking for material

It might seem crazy but, I can't complain about a politician trying to represent and speak to young Australians. I got a good laugh out of the speech despite not knowing what she was talking about

Do Palestine/Israel next. It's okay when our friends do it

That's interesting, but given that it is a two-seat electorate there might be multiple candidates from each party as well. They should probably have a by-election for both seats to be balanced

 

Calling an election or referendum a waste of money is to be against democracy. Why do the media never challenge this

Have you ever seen him in person? think about it.

100%. I'm not a child but I've learned so much about people through lemmy, getting to be a part of society without sharing any personal information

Whilst I agree that AI shouldn't be used in elections, would a ban on such use lull people into a false sense of security?

Such regulation would significantly harm small sites which get dragged into this making fediverse instances in Australia untenable, meaning only the large platforms have the resources to comply. The internet is dangerous, yes. But the internet is also good. The internet provides information, and in a democracy nothing should be done to limit the flow of information.

Followup on my previous post. Door behaved normally on an N*R for me the other day, maybe just something wrong with the one I was on. We no longer need to boycott QR

 

Idk they've made it such that when you press the button to open the door the door will not open unless you press the button again when the train is stopped. At least on the N*Rs. Probably a safety feature or something but I don't like it so it's woke.
