  9. CW: Australia/World Politics - Israel

    The #AustralianGovernment is yet again "deeply concerned" about its citizens taking part in the Global Sumud Flotilla instead of actually acting to protect them by denouncing Israel, expelling the ambassador, and sanctioning Israel and any connections supporting the genocide.

    Australian politicians talk big but consistently fail to do anything on the global stage worthwhile.

  14. Audiobook player with non-essential buttons blanked out.
    Used electrical tape front and back.

    Humanware supply a "shield" which blanks some buttons.
    But Pitch, Speed & Eject buttons still add unnecessary complexity.

    Device is from the "disability aids" industry, so very overpriced.
    But paid for by the #AustralianGovernment as part of DEI. (They don't call it that - but the Trumpists know what it is.)

  19. The Australian Government has a central digital records system called My Health Record.

    Anyone in the medical system have an intelligible take as to if this is worth the privacy costs to be sharing health info into a central health record.

    Im weighing up the benefits of "medical staff being able to access my records in a time of high need" vs future versions of the state using this information to discriminate / make decisions in the background that are not in the individuals benefit.
