I did the same for the piano tbh. I was better at rhythm games than parsing sheet music so I'd practice and memorise pieces on something like Synthesia.

It's like an extra $50 or a few beers for someone to put it together for you.

Dean is part of Labor's right faction. Might mean he's more likely to work with the Liberals. Our native forests may not survive this.

That may or may not have participated in the time honoured qld police tradition of picking up aboriginal youth and dumping them in the middle of nowhere to walk home.

Yagami Tetsuya assassinated Abe Shinzo, former PM of Japan, while he was drumming up support for a candidate from his party. The motive was his mother draining the family savings account to donate to a Christian cult known as the Unification Church, aka Moonies. He actually wanted to kill the Moonie leadership but deemed it unrealistic, so he went after Abe who had ties to the cult. After the assassination, it came out that a lot of Japanese leadership had ties to the cult and there was a bit of a witch-hunt.

Samsung pushed an app in an update that plastered ads for charities all over my lock screen. Disabled that shit and my next phone isn't going to be a Samsung.

My first instinct is "yes" but then I thought about it and I think it's just going to exacerbate the short-stay problem unless combined with other measures.

You can tell you should be worried because they use scary words and CAPITAL LETTERS. I also love how they put "it opens the door to activists" like it's a bad thing. Personally I wouldn't mind if Australia Day were replaced with a Treaty Day if that came to pass. It's just an excuse to get absolutely pissed around a barbie anyway.

Privatised building inspections are a fucking disgrace. I didn't even realise there were no licencing requirements. I thought they had to be engineers at the very least.

You don't get to "reject findings" cunt. See you in court.

MLK had the Black Panthers and Nation of Islam as looming threats. Gandhi is also the one who said "pacifism without violence is not pacifism, it is helplessness." A violent counterpart to a non-violent movement helps by being the stick to the non-violent carrot.

How the fuck are people expected to have kids when they need to work work work just to live. So many people can barely support themselves, much less be expected to support two other individuals. And it is two because all these articles keep harping on about the "replacement rate". No one in power seems to want to do anything to actually help aside from funneling more taxes into corporate leeches with increasing subsidies.

Twitter, also known as X Corp, no longer has a media relations office.
Reuters could not immediately reach Twitter's Australia office for comment.

Are they no longer even replying with the poop emoji? Damn those staff cuts must be drastic.
