Is anyone else getting notifications for top-level posts from accounts that you don't follow? How are they pushing posts into my notifications?

I agree with all of this! :) After the first episode, I said to my husband, "what did we just watch?! I'm not gonna try to figure this out. It is what it is."
Watch Pluribus on Apple TV. From Vince Gilligan, starring Rhea Seehorn. No, I can’t tell you what it’s about. No, you shouldn’t try to find out. Just trust me. You trust me, right? Go in blind. (Also ignore the stupid ad campaign.)
The only bad part so far is they’ve only released two episodes.

We're hoping to test drive the MG S5 EV in the next week or so. @kiwiev.bsky.social I remember you posted your potato score for it on FB back in September, but I can't find any video review. Did you do one? Would love to see it! #AoNZ #ev Anyone get one of these? #kikorangi

#nzpol Unemployment reached a 9 year of 5.3%. The labour market took another turn for the worse - unemployment growing, underemployment growing, fewer hours being worked, and wages are not keeping up with inflation. This data is another sign the economy is not working. A thread

of course "quietly" #nzpol
The Govt quietly announced a loosening of climate rules at 8pm last night:
- Decoupling the ETS from Paris
- Shifting ETS resets to every 2 years
- Delaying the public sector target by 25 years
- Removing CCC advice from *before* emission reductions plans:

Wellington Girls’ has moved to WFH for at least Monday-Wednesday next week after another measles case was found. The student was at prize giving, so basically the whole school is now affected. As are family members who attended. Contract tracing is going to be a bit of a trick.

National so far this term:

Getting to your meeting 30 seconds quicker is a higher priority than protecting kids from cars on their way to school

Keeping school attendance up is a higher priority than protecting kids from measles

Saving a few bucks is a higher priority than a decent lunch

Nope.
ChatGPT’s new Atlas browser doesn’t just see what you read — it remembers it.

@eff.org’s Lena Cohen showed me it even logged “memories” of her looking for *abortion care* and her doctor’s name. Out-surveils even Chrome.

Column | ChatGPT just came out with its own web browser. Use it with caution.
OpenAI’s Atlas promises AI-powered convenience. The price? Letting ChatGPT track and store “memories” of what you do online.
