“Price was appointed to lead a government efficiency unit if the #Coalition government is elected after 3 May. The unit, which would sit within the prime minister’s department, has been compared to one led by US #tech billionaire Elon Musk (#TechWeenie, #Oligarch), whose Department of Government #Efficiency, or Doge, is taking a razor to US government departments.
“Let’s be very, very clear, media, you’re obsessed with Donald Trump . We’re not obsessed with Donald Trump. We’re actually obsessed with ensuring that we can improve the circumstances for #Australians,” she said.”
Devoid of any #policy, #analysis, #costing, #ideas an LNP Senator makes a word salad of foreign phrases about making the “Bond market” sexy again, from a #BowlingClub on a Saturday in #Perth.
Repeat the slogans,
Repeat the slogans,
Repeat the #slogans.

Why I need a modular digitizing device for my notes and sketches that is stable and consistent...Or multiple of them :B
These 4 "devices" were on my nightstand just now. Tip o' the iceburg in my life, seriously.
The goal would be to capture these bits and such without scanning and cameras and such. its wasted time.
Seeing how a lot of #solarpunk #illustration used by magazines, portals and even researchers tends to be #AI generated bullshit I'd like to start a gallery with curated, intentional and human-made #creativeCommons #art for anyone to use.
I'd also like it to be a place with #solarpunkPrompts available in multiple languages - as we have them in Polish, English and Italian - potentially cross-linked and tagged by themes.
@Vivaldi Mail, Tasks, Calendar, Notes, Settings and some pinned web links.
How about a side panel for pinning Start Page widgets vertically? Then we could use them productively as we browse.
I apparently walked out of the store with this thing still attached to a very cheap piece of #electronics . I think it is an Alpha #security tag. I guess the cashier didn't notice.
Are there any cool things I can do to #repurpose this? I could just bring it back to Wal-Mart but not if I can do something interesting with it.

Here are my favourite 17 genders, some old and some new. I'm considering going through these books a second/third time over the next 1-3 years and maybe making a blog/git repo to explore some of the concepts and ideas a little more rigidly by combining similar chapters for example, modernizing and putting some of the practical knowledge in a single place grouped by topic with my own spin/tools on top etc #Blog #Ideas #Hacking

List of things I'm doing in no particular order:
Printing out Red Cards (know your rights cards) and placing them throughout the local area or giving them to others to distribute.
Using sidewalk chalk and homemade stencils to do some non-permanent Banksy-esque things here, there and everywhere. Recruited the kids and willing friends to help me.
Making anti-fascist buttons as well as vinyl stickers and distributing them wherever in the hopes people will go "I'm taking that and wearing it somehow"
Telling anyone who says they don't know what to do about at least a couple of things they can do. Or if they say they can't keep up with Trump's BS well enough to fight about at least one outrage and provide at least one tool to help them fight it more easily.
Trying to help organizations and people I care about drop Twitter for Mastodon and the Fediverse over centralized options.
Bottom line? Musk doesn't want you to use Signal. SO DOWNLOAD AND START USING SIGNAL.
