mark my words - Burnham will be yet another all bark and no bite PM - he’ll have a run of the mill centrist career before he maybe passes proportional representation before leaving and handing power into a far right party since more of the same austerity and “bureaucracy” cuts will leave people feeling more and more disenchanted…

i hope I’m wrong…

Commission Blanch said it was not his “intent” for the technology to be used at protests “except if we have intelligence that there is a significant risk of someone seeking to do harm”.

But he said that could be the case at the upcoming Land Forces defence expo, which Perth will host in October, if police had intelligence of a threat to that event

inb4 harm means Palantir top brass not being able to attend because there’s protestors blockading the event

Asked about the cameras, opposition leader Basil Zempilas said he supported police having more tools to do their job.

“I’ve always had the view if you haven’t done anything wrong, you haven’t got anything to worry about, and I’m not sure it’s any different when it applies to this,” he said.

another dont thread on me shitlib licking the mass-surveillance boot at every opportunity

POSE had a solution to this…

if the feature was “exploratory” why are they mad? you explored what the reaction would be by having the code behind a feature flag in prod and the response wasn’t good so you scrapped it? seems like you should be glad wired did you a solid by not having you waste engineering hours developing a feature nobody wanted.

no animal produces b12 - it all comes from soil bacteria - which is why grass fed ruminants have b12

but practically no modern day meat farm relies on grass feeding only - even the “grass fed” get the bulk of their calories via feed (and therefore take b12 supplements)

if you’re arguing that we should go back to “the olden days” - meaning no more than 20% of your yearly calories being meat - or eating meat about once a week - then please don’t let me stop you - but at that point I’d much rather take my b12 supplements and not have to needlessly kill animals 🤷‍♀️

why eat animals that have been fed b12 supplements when you can just take the b12 supplements yourself?

all trackers hate this one trick

Several European countries paused or restricted arms exports with Israel during its military action in Gaza.

The offensive was triggered by the Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed about 1,200 people, while 251 others were taken to Gaza as hostages.

More than 72,330 people were then killed by Israeli military action Gaza - including 757 since the ceasefire began on 10 October 2025 - according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.

fuck the bbc - I know I shouldn’t be surprised anymore but the audacity to say “well acktually Isntreal was provoked to kill tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza (or that’s what the evil Khamas health ministry wants you to believe)” in an article about it’s invasion of Lebanon is insane

why not mention how they’ve killed hundreds of people in Lebanon - during a supposed ceasefire with Iran - so even if all those people were Hezbollah (spoilers they ain’t) it still wouldn’t be justified

at least with the likes of Fox or GBNews you know they’re wackos from the start - the fact most British people are swayed to believe anything the bbc says is a crime against critical thought

If you’re gonna share satellite pictures from an article - why did you choose to only share the outdated one from 2013 without any context?

Instead of the more recent ones that show the school being separated from the complex?

And yeah sure maybe the regime is fudging the numbers to garner more sympathy but I still feel bombing kids is much worse than lying - and you framing it as “it’s a he said she said, so we can’t believe anyone” - when there’s factual evidence that children were killed by the US-Israel regimes feels like you care more about pedantry than literal child murder

Can you trust the eye witnesses whose children were murdered?

Or what about the US military themselves admitting they did it due to “outdated targeting data”?

And the fact that it’s clear even from commercial satellite photos that the school is walled off from the military base?

And here it is in full 4200x2800 quality 🤩

you self host your own claude llm? damn and here i thought a 14B deepseek ollama instance was good shit - how did you get access to their proprietary weights?

tldr;

Set that minimum TTL to something between 40 minutes (2400 seconds) and 1 hour; this is a perfectly reasonable range.

What is VanillaOS again?

I guess my point is that from the perspective of the oppressed the distinction between “democracy” and “fascism” is functionally meaningless.

I feel your point is that in the abstract “law and order” isn’t inherently fascistic, but in practice what difference does it make? One group enacts centralized violence against another, fully in line with the laws that they themselves have set. To the in-group, this is legitimate law and order. To those targeted, it’s fascistic oppression.

So then are the people fascist, or does the system create fascistic outcomes even when people think they’re just supporting “law and order”?

i mean that was somewhat tongue in cheek but law enforcement is fundamentally the state’s way of enacting violence in line with whatever it’s leaders see fit - which imo at the very least has fascistic elements.

would you say that killing almost exclusively Arab and African people, tear gassing, shooting and brutalizing protestors because they disagree with governmental policies is not in any way fascistic?

what about the french national police massacring hundreds of peaceful Algerians explicitly due to racism, with full governmental support and subsequent censorship, led by Maurice Papon, an actual Nazi coraborator who deported thousands of Jewish people to concentration camps only to spend 4 years in jail 30 years later (while serving in government all that time) - would you call that a rule of law that applies equally to everyone?

at what point do we look at these “individual incidents” and start questioning the whole system of oppression?

so a fascist symbol…

It starts off with dick pics

Specifically, Zhou claimed that she “received 2 photos of Jeremy Renner and then a string of unwanted/unsolicited pornographic images of himself.” According to Zhou, this occurred “in June 2025.”

“He’s done this for years,” one Hollywood insider insisted to gossip columnist Rob Shuter. “Every new woman gets the same treatment — flirty texts, then out of nowhere, the photos start coming. He thinks it’s charming.”

Then denial

Renner’s lawyer, Marty Singer, blasted the allegations as “false, outrageous and highly defamatory.” He told PEOPLE that Renner met Zhou once in July, when she interviewed him for the documentary at a hotel in Reno, Nev. They shared a “brief consensual encounter,” and then met again in August, Singer said, adding that the actor has not spoken to Zhou in over a month.

But not before it had turned violent

I was discussing about the doc logistics, then he drank a bottle of wine alone and got angry and angry yelling for two hours. I had to location-share to my team, my parents and Disney colleagues in case something happens to me they know where I am. I had to lock myself in a room to be safe praying he would not come into the room at night as he was really angry. I did not say a word, I was so scared for my life."

For reference, Renner’s ex-wife, Sonni Pacheco, previously accused Renner of drug use and domestic violence. Specifically, she claimed that Renner threatened to kill her and there was at least one instance where he fired a gun in the presence of their daughter.

And then the ICEing on the cake…

Damn this washed up actor guy sure seems like a massive piece of shit - and since we’re at a he said, a-whole-bunch-of-other-people said situation - I’ll go with believing the victim and the rest of the people claiming he’s a POS and not the alleged POS himself.
