The ABC is complicit :-( The reasons they gave for iView login IDs were based on a lie. All the benefits to users could have been opt-in and performed on the user’s devices. Your data is shared with overseas companies even if you opt out. No doubt training ‘AI’ on your habits. I’m cooked too?

I remember a push during the 1990s for print media to identify ‘shopped photos. Anyone able to summarise why it failed back then?

Again, after I’ve calmed down… it is only the local dealership, and ‘vaguely national’ servicing network that I had dealt with. No faults detected with my Shark 6, just the mismatch of my/¿world?s design choices that I’d expect with any vehicle new to me.

e.g. socks marketed as ‘made from bamboo’ are using cellulose which would be virtually indistinguishable from other sources / en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi%C3%B... I’ve never seen this, but seems like decades since I first heard of it.

My parents never read xkcd, but >50y ago thought it would be cool to give me an unusual middle name.
It’s not normally recognised as a name, and ever since the ‘00s causes certain databases to corrupt my surname- time after time. Not fun.
