Clearly full of a highly toxic drug that would eventually be used by nefarious organisations to force millions of people into trafficking and poison millions more.

MAGA and charisma don’t really seem to have any overlap. Miller is some kind ghouls, Vance is charmless schlub, Hegseth is a Neonazi used car salesman, Bondi is the Karen meme brought to life, Patel is clearly some kind of moron in spite of somehow achieving a law degree, Kennedy is also some sort of Nepo-moron, Oz is a scheister and snake oil salesman … it goes on.

You could look outside the admin but even those clowns have the likeability of a building site portaloo. Like what the fuck is wrong with Jesse Watters? He looks like a possessed ventriloquist dummy and he has the morals of someone who is devoid of a soul. Musk and Theil are detached from reality, I mean Theil is literally running around given lectures on the end times.

Kirk was about as close as they seem to be able to get to a functioning human being and his ideas and morals were straight out of Mein Kampf and the KKK code of conduct.

That’s wild, positive? If you include machine learning? Maybe. Net positive? Given the clear impacts to mental health and the environment? Yeah maybe not …

Boomers Kids: “oh yeah?! I’ll show you what brain rot is … gon give you the biggest brain rot ever …”

It sounds like you haven’t actually read it.

This law is a series of requirements on social media site operators and the definition of the fines they will receive if they don’t comply. It doesn however define the actual methods those operators must use, only who will define them (they are still yet to be defined). They scale of what constitutes a social media site is wild.

Empowering parents would be helping them understand methods for combating toxic social media use or supporting them in improving their internet and cyber safety literacy. Implementing a law and providing limited narrative on its function through traditional mainstream media is not empowering parents. Do you think many parents understand their liability for the Minecraft server their kids will inevitably set up from what’s been reported so far?

Circumventing this law is trivial. You wildly underestimate the ability for teenagers to get away with doing things they want.

It’s wild to me how much work the US puts in to help Israel. I just don’t understand what the US gets out of it.

Although … to be fair Aussie Rules can also be just Footy.

Piss off Trump, Aussie Rules is football and nothing else, soccer will always be soccer.

Service providers can’t verify individual users, its arguably harder for them to do that than it is for social media site operators

That’s not how the law works and it doesn’t empower parents to do anything. It just makes social media sites check for age and deny under 16s. It only applies to sites hosted by companies or people with a presence in Australia, and it refers to methods of age verification that don’t exist yet even though the law is now in force.

“Everyone said Jews used to eat babies which was really mean and lead to us being persecuted, now that Israelis who also claim to be Jews actually eat babies everyone is persecuting us for it. Do you want us to eat babies or not?!”

Haha my mum (a primary school teacher at the time) was made the IT person for her school, but that was only because she had a son (me) who liked to fix computer problems for fun

That’s not how the law is written, onus is on social media sites, they haven’t banned under 16s from the internet, just from social media.

It’d be government ID to access sites hosted in Australia from Australia, but if the internet shows you accessing sites from say Vietnam, or accessing a site not hosted in Australia then what’s the government going to do?

Australia already has metadata tracking. This law is poorly implemented by a bunch of old fools who don’t understand how the internet works. All it will achieve is training a generation to subvert the government’s nonsense better.

You really need to find some boundaries …

Pretty sure Daria was a millennial …

One of my friends was doing a lot of Kung Fu and he used to have bands he could strap to his ankles and wrists with lots of little pockets for rectangular steel bars so he could adjust the weight as required.

Err from memory isn’t there a pretty clear definition of classes in a capitalist society. Initial definitions were lower class being people who derive wealth from selling their labour and upper class being people who derive their wealth from owning the means of production. Middle class came about when workers started buying/setting up companies so suddenly there were people who both sold their labour and owned means of production.

So regardless of what ever you think of your job, unless you own a company you are lower class. There’s probably a portion of middle class who would be on the edge but you’d think most should be resilient enough to weather most storms.

That said, if some dipshit in government makes some idiodic decisions then yeah, a lot of middle class people are going to find their stable businesses are a house of cards.

If Lockheed Martin has kill codes for their F35s then China can reverse engineer those kill codes
