Yeh, typo. But it was a bad election result that got him appointed.

We have some measles cases in the community at the moment. They've been cagey about where they originated but they have confirmed it came from an "overseas visitor".

Since RFK Jr was elected, I have been slowly putting together something to pitch to my federal MP to put pressure on them to do something about visitors from the US - exactly as we would from any other third-world nation were diseases were running rampant - like requiring evidence of vaccination status.

No idea what it would look like or what makes sense but just know we have to do something to keep ourselves safe now that we all apparently live in this stupid regressive universe at the moment where we're going to be getting dragged backwards by the insane, ignorant people running the US government.

I live in QLD. Writing this and the spot price for power is
-$33.73 / MWh, largely because of solar deployments in the state.

The sun is, as usual, beating done - we're the "Sunshine State" here, and in fact we're having the driest spring in almost 40 years at the moment. Solar is having a great time.

Battery prices are tumbling, so now it's possible to make decent money being paid to charge your battery for several hours off the grid during times like this then sell it back in the evening at peak time. People are building businesses around this while our dipshit (conservative) government is doing this posturing for our wealthy coal mining magnates and companies.

Everyone else that can is just going solar, and batteries are next especially with more incentives to deploy them in homes. It's possible to be almost completely independent of the grid for a one off spend of about 2 percent of the value of the median home here now.

Yeh, yeh, not everyone can do this. I rent and just asked my landlord if she'd put solar on and she has refused (she doesn't yet know there's a government programme about to drop that incentivised landlords to deploy solar, which may change her mind, but I want to be out of here before then anyway).

Coal is still a core part of our grid but it's clearly on life support.

When you can buy and sell cryotoassets and meme stocks and never lose money?!

Seriously, how much of gambling is being eaten up because of the hype around stonks from the last few years, and the US administration pumping crypto scams?

This is how most "AI" tools that deal with PDF seem to work. Format is too janky but OCR is a mature field, one which has been enhanced by modern ML techniques. Says a lot for how awkward a format PDF is for exchanging data.

... how do people pirate these days? Is Pirate Bay still a thing? Usenet?

Already +5 so I can't mod you up any further but this is art

... what actual open source maintainers think about this.

  So far they've not been very positive about AI generated reports, like this scathing post from the curl maintainer: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdaniel.haxx.se%2Fblog%2F20...

Is it possible that some photons move as waves and others as particles? Are there just... different types of photons?

This might be a dumb question but why can't you just dump the wood into the disused coal mines? I assume the main reason is the space saving but it feels like step 4 adds a lot of energy requirement to the mix & you still have to move the bulk (?) of the mass?

I also thought to get this you needed the non-free extension pack or whatever it's called, at least for commercial use?

Australia has also just copy/pasted this problem and housing is now out of control.

I like that he just posted that laws don't matter as long as he's trying to save the country. I don't know what it would take for a wake up call for your lot

Trump, the convicted felon who has lost lawfare battles along every dimension of his life, constantly follows the law, is what I'm hearing here
