@timnitGebru @zerodogg thanks!
@franksting @decryption “near” is load-bearing
@jpm @franksting technically bacchus marsh is not Melbourne! (But it is closer to Melbourne CBD than some parts of metro Melbourne)

“It’s a land grab – a massive land grab,” said one well-known opposition figure who asked not to be named because of the sensitivities of criticising the US. “It’s revolting because this is not the United States one would have [expected]. This is not the United States of the Marshall plan. This is a rapacious, mafioso United States,” they added."
Brey, we told you fascists this in advance. We literally told you "Maduro might be a piece of shit but you will NEVER be white enough to Trump."
GFY.
Like I am so fucking sick of fascists, reactionaries and wingers half a world away telling me "I know America better than you because I read some propaganda about how great America is that your government fucking PAID to get into my hands."
We warned you. You begged for him to come.
Now, you will burn.
@decryption what size apartment do you get for your $1m these days? #lazyweb
We sold our 120m3 back in 2014!for well that.
@madkiwi yeah around that size 100-130sqm it seems ($1.1-$1.2m might get up to 150sqm) - Melbourne apartment prices have stagnated, there’s more supply than demand
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent defended his move last month to support the yen, saying that any extreme volatility in the Japanese currency could feed through to higher U.S. interest rates. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/08/29/markets/bessent-disorderly-yen-us-rates/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #yen #dollar #forex #satsukikatayama #financeministry #us #scottbessent #congress

@codinghorror For a second, I thought someone had actually made the game.
This is just a bandaid solution (for a problem that should not exist) but if you need/want to use google search and don't want to see that "AI" shit...

I was in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia earlier this week and was fascinated to discover that #melbourne themed cafes are a thing overseas. The coffee was better than a lot of cafes in actual Melbourne. And yes, there was multiple menu options involving avocado

@joannaholman Oh man, in 2013 I remember finding myself in a Melbourne café in Valparaíso, Chile! I don’t remember how the coffee was, but I do remember the huge amount of AFL memorabilia and decor

5 > 4 > 2 > 8 > 6 > 9 (NOTA) > 7 > 3 = 1
happy to discuss; 5 is kind of close to what I would be okay advocating for at work? otherwise I feel a bit bad that none of the other options really match my specific AI/LLM philosophy but I didn't feel like proposing yet another thing was going to be useful.
@NellytheWillow
@FediTips
Some clients, like FediLab on Android, will have a button to do just that.
Not aware of one for web/desktop at present, though.
@Brett_E_Carlock @NellytheWillow
Yup, what Brett said 👍️
Third party apps may have it but the official app and web interface don't yet.
I have absolutely zero sympathy for the Linux Foundation people crying over their infra - stuff like kernel.org - getting hammered by "AI" scrapers.
The Linux Foundation's biggest donors are all "AI" companies. You can't take their money with one hand and then write sad toots about their business practices with the other.
@thomholwerda money is so god damn delicious though
