Australia’s grid now relies on renewable energy as much as coal. Those who doubted it look foolish

The SA Premier, Peter Malinauskas, really has shown his true colours this week, and it’s not pretty. #adelaidefestival #aww
The Premier asked if he was concerned about the economic hit the state will face through the loss of Writers Week. He said “because the Adelaide Writers’ Week is a free event, it’s not a ticketed event, it generates zero revenue. So no not just at this stage”

I remember Apple booting games out of the App Store due to pixelated boobs. I recall it kicking off various apps due to porn. Yet GenAI CSAM and other horrors where those depicted haven’t consented? Oh, that’s just fine, apparently. FFS.
It’s not just the cowardice. It’s also the hypocrisy.
