Great and all, but this is a literal press release. It could be PR spruiking, it could be pump’n’dump play, it could be friggin genuinely great. No way to know from a press release.

This is one area where Apple has it pretty right. A Mac will do somethings when ‘asleep’ like download emails and texts. It also can broadcast its location if the ‘Find Me’ function is on. If it’s plugged into power then backups will also run, and background app updates will happen. It does this in a low power mode, so it won’t get hot enough to need fans. It’s worked flawlessly for 20 years. Meanwhile all our PCs are set to ‘never sleep’ and just get shutdown when not in use. I never trust a PC laptop to wake successfully from sleep just by closing the lid.
It’s not even quite that - the article suggested they raised the commercial equivalent of the 12% through competitive auction. These allow the bidders a set price over 20 years.
So it’s cheaper than buying in fossil fuels, the suppliers get certainty, and they achieve close to complete decarbonisation using private investment.
How good is that?
I’m not being facetious or unkind here, but for many 10’s of thousands of years we have been developing meaningful social circles by seeing people in person. Just give it a go!
It’s a big WHOOOSH, but I actually do respect all the people getting as far as reading ‘https://twit…’… and saying ‘fuck that’.
No. Hydrogen peroxide is the best disinfectant. Beats sunlight by a long long margin.
Bleaching Nazis on the internet is basically what OP is calling for, and by your own analogy, they’re right.
Dude. It’s an app, not your wife.
Maximally hilarious.
The whole premise of ads on Twitter is that they’re targeted.
IBM don’t sell consumer crap. They sell smoke and mirrors to major governments and industry. They’re chasing jobs worth millions per pop. They want ads to target the people making those decisions.
This is literally the “This is fine” meme.
It’s entirely possible to drink lemonade on 40deg days while not being complacent. The impact of climate change isn’t ‘one day I’ll be dead’. It’s an ‘it’s going to get worse before it gets worse’ situation. It’s a future where you might not even be able to get lemonade or Bundy rum with caps you can’t put back on the bottle.
Mate, come on, that’s not fair at all. Get your head out of your arse.
ABC have been covering this heaps. They broke the Afghan files story in the first place. Adele Furgheson has literally been writing articles about whistleblowers and David McBride for weeks in the lead up to this. Latest one from looking at the ABC website here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-11-18/david-mcbride-guilty-plea-whistleblower-protection/103120544
Fairfax is also literally the news link at the top of the OP post here!
There are always excellent reports coming from the ABC & Fairfax with a quality of investigative work that FJ doesn’t even come close to matching. ABC & Fairfax may have their faults, but this is not one of them.
The good old Google way. I’ve no idea why so many people are so willing to hand over everything to them. Say what you like about Apple, but at least they’re not selling your personal info.
Weird take, what’s your beef? They most certainly do slap on huge fines, and are much more aggressive about enforcing privacy requirements than the US/etal.
This is kinda like cursing the worlds fastest sprinter for just not running fast enough.
Exactly. It’s all sympathy for the devil platitudes.
I don’t see this being very popular in Australia. It misses the mark for why people buy a Ute or dual cab here.
Ahhh, Port Kembla. I mean it’s already a whale graveyard what with all those massive container ships chopping them up all year and the massive sewer outfall gassing them out. A few measly pylons just adds a bit of spice to the game!
There’s a mouthful. Free market except when….
Ahhh Bronwyn! I could Nazi that coming!
On a side note, I’ve just finished installing a whole lot of vertical searchlights at her home for the annual Christmas celebrations. I hear all her guests will be Gobbelling down the drinks while saluting some kind of whole potato.
Pretty much. There’s an enormous crossover between the people spruiking pie-in-the-sky nuclear projects on forums, and the people pumping small cap uranium mining stocks on Hot Copper. Pump’n’dump is the name of the game, although recently they managed to sucker in the Coalition to spruik for them.
Amazing.
Fuck around and find out that stocking shelves for a one day event with cheap plastic crap that isn’t selling well is a bad idea?
