I can’t get over the bold “and” - I think it’s to weed out those unable to deal with truth dichotomy.

Thanks very much gas industry for going off in a huff and putting gas expansion plans on the backburner. Best Xmas gift ever to an overheating planet. Hurrah.

I would really like to quote-tweet this, adding my 2 cents and amplifying Taylor's words.

But I can't. And that's unfortunate.

Critics say Elon Musk has been asleep at the wheel lately with Tesla, but he said not to worry because it's a completely safe, self-driving company.

Absolute cracker of a piece about the boring old hierarchialism that packaged for TV as sensational archaeology - excellent stuff from @davidwengrow@twitter.com.

Residential solar sends prices negative ..South Australia

Rando’s random thoughts

SA will be effectively exporting power to the east coast for an hour or so each sunlit day (ie. the grid is mitigating somewhat).

Consumer’s off-peak period @ penny rates will (has already) shifted to the middle of the day - this makes domestic solar relatively more expensive and solar+battery relatively cheaper.

Solar farms likewise will find installing storage more economic to make use of their

I’m struggling to know in what moral universe gas companies that are reaping obscene margins from a war using this nation’s common wealth have a case to gouge the Australian people for the privilege and then to fleece them all over again by not paying taxes on their profits.

.@HonTonyAbbott@twitter.com is a gross hypocrite. He says “It’s wrong when woke CEOs start playing politics through their businesses.”, but is stone-cold silent when those same CEOs play politics undermining government tax and environmental policy. #auspol hcamag.com/au/specialisation/b?

No doubt they’re aware - it doesn’t match the brief from Elmu. Contract journalism requires such tap-dancing to dissonant music.

(Elmu’d be more than happy to continue doing the same for the same interests).

It is amazing how often the all-guns-blazing, ideological reporting by some journalists manages to undermine their own story, to miss the forest for the trees. The two "big name" journalists who had carriage of the "Twitter Files" are put to shame (in reporting terms) by this more measured piece about shit that happened in the Twitter moderation mines. Worth a read.

Today’s social media status quo isn’t cutting it, so Mozilla is exploring an alternative here on Mastodon. In early 2023, Mozilla will be testing a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. We will keep you updated, but for now learn more here: mzl.la/3BNXQMQ

Oh hell yeah. @mozilla is launching a Mastodon instance in early 2023! I’m very excited for this. Mozilla is really good at what they do. Firefox has over 200M monthly active users, and with any luck they’ll build better support for the fediverse into Firefox itself. Mastodon will greatly benefit from easy to use professionally run instances that can handle massive scaling blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mo

Hey there Kevin Rudd, congrats on your appointment as emissary to the imperial hegemon - can you please make it a priority to torpedo the ridiculous nuke sub deal & dismantle the imperial white supremacist AUKUSDORKUS arrangement? TIA :) #auspol
