This is great news. Very excited for the communities features to come too. This could be the last remaining hurdle for many people coming from facebook. A true healthy replacement.

The QLD government are introducing a raft of new E-Mobility laws into Parliament this week. The changes are based on the findings of the Parliamentary E-mobility Enquiry, which made 28 recommendations. The changes are in part already existing law in some form.... https://altmax.com.au/?p=1477

The courage of every day normal citizens is what I believe will save America. Kayla Schultz was screamed at and called a "fucking cunt" by a federal agent and accused of interference, for sitting in her car, just as the Alex Pretti altercation was evolving. She... https://altmax.com.au/?p=1457

In 2014, the Brisbane activist community got together to organise a community driven response to the G20 Summit planned for the city. Rather than focus on or give fuel to the mainstream media obsession with riots and drama (in Brisbane, really?), the community... https://altmax.com.au/?p=1424

Let's not forget Trump called his own nation's war dead "losers".

No one: Still no one: This guy: “You know, the Tuskegee experiment just wasn’t ambitious enough.”

Shocking revelations from brave @wbaidlaw.bsky.social clients on a hidden @icegov.bsky.social policy that violates the Constitution and endangers our neighbors everywhere.

Mainstream media, we’re looking right at you.

"I want to see if ChatGPT works as well if I tell it not to keep my data" "Why did ChatGPT delete my data?"

This isn't a rival to the UN, because you can be sure that behind this is Trumps before stated vision of turning Gaza into a Riviera style "playground of the rich" where Palestinians will have little opportunity to govern and will simply be the cheep labour for constructing this vision.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: “I believe one should take the American president seriously when he says that he wants Greenland. But I will also make it clear that if the US chooses to attack another NATO country militarily, then everything stops, including NATO…”

This is a really cogent and insightful interview with Tillie Martinussen of the Greenlandic Cooperation Party, about Trump's designs on Greenland.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMPe...

This is a huge win. The First Amendment is clear: We the people have the right to speak without fear, document federal agents' activity in public, and hold those in power accountable.

I've only ever seen one Kelvin Helmholtz cloud with my own eyes, until today, when I spotted another! First picture (red skies) was in Toowoomba several years ago. Second is from today in Lismore.

Toilets don't need to be unsafe, for anyone. Individual unisex cubicles that open out to highly visible sink area, no place for predators to hide (of real or imagined variety)

Now he looks like an idiot?

Various works are under way throughout the region, being organised and conducted by Lismore City Council with CMC and JF Hull Holdings as contractors. The latest info about each work site can be viewed at this link (which shows details and map locations):... https://altmax.com.au/?p=1408

This is disgusting. They screw wages down and destroy jobs through automation so they can maximise profits and build vast fortunes, but someone holding onto a working device while it still works is affecting work productivity? That's FCKN unhinged.

In retrospect, Albanese giving Sky the debate on paywall, just so that he can win the debate and make Murdoch media look like idiots as they back peddle, might have actually been a stroke of genius.

I must admit I was very suss about those figures Trump was flashing like the Moses tablets. Not tariffs at all.

Hopefully this is a sign of more widespread voter backlash. www.scrippsnews.com/politics/ele...

We need the Australian Labor Party to take a similar tact as this. We don't need US markets; we need to pull back from our close relationship with the US and start developing alternative markets and alliances. www.france24.com/en/live-news...

"We are currently clean on OPSEC" (operational security)....😂

This is a shocking story but not even close to the most shocking thing to happen to detainees. The detention centres are privately run and have financial incentive to obstruct efforts by detainees or their friends and advocates to get them out even when they have been mistakenly detained.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social runs through all the contracts Elon is benefiting from while in control of the gov bureaucracy including cancelling the winner of an FAA contract for internet in order to replace it with Starlink. Grifters gonna grift. www.youtube.com/watch?v=czhj...

A federal judge in Washington said that the way the Trump administration set up and has been running Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency could violate the Constitution.

This is extremely interesting and her claims are totally born out by what Musk is doing with DOGE. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cZ7...

Just sayin'

The White House twitter account proclaiming Trump a king. Nothing done about congestion.

Yes, we all should.

THese aren't peace talks, these are Trump's "capitulation to Russia" talks between Trump and and Russia.

This utter buffoon (a dangerous buffoon) is now head of the Health Department of the US gov. Unbelievable. www.huffpost.com/entry/rfk-jr...
