🥴 Ah, yes, the groundbreaking #innovation of translating Win32 to WASM, because what the web really needs is more #Minesweeper #crashes if you dare to win. 🚀 It's like taking your ancient desktop relics and giving them a shiny WASM coat, only to realize they still belong in a museum. 🪦

Biodiversity under the wheels
Koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, wombats and other wildlife are forced to dwell in fragmented spaces having to cross many roads to go about their life. Mobility design is primarily for combustion machines to fly along their supply chains. The mobility needs of the un-motorised is not taken care of with the existing infrastructure.
"Tens of thousands of collisions with animals are recorded each year across Australia and the number appears to be rising. According to NRMA Insurance claims data, there was a 21% rise in animal collision claims from 2024-2025."
"Many large animals, including kangaroos, are most active at dusk and night, often moving to feed along roadside vegetation. Insurance data shows collisions are concentrated on regional and rural roads, where higher speeds, limited lighting and greater exposure to wildlife increase risk." >>

Daylight saving and circadian rhythms and killing wildlife on the roads
Crashing into the 'zone of wildlife'“[With] daylight saving, we start shifting our cars and our daily routine more into the zone of animals, their sunset, sunrise period … suddenly there are cars when all the dusk choruses are happening."
"Species that would be of obvious concern would be kangaroos and wallabies, that are often quite active both in the morning and in the afternoon around dusk, so any increased traffic around the time when they’re most active can create potential issues with road accidents,” Deakin University wildlife ecology and conservation professor Euan Ritchie says."
"Cars – with their lights and noise, and the danger they pose – can affect insects, birds and wildlife." >>

Americans drive a lot more than people in other rich countries.
If we didn’t drive so much, we wouldn’t die in so many crashes.It’s a simple point, but one that NHTSA, traffic engineers, and many road safety org’s have yet to learn.

PFAS contamination sites and dead platypus
Mapping "hazardous concentrations" of PFAS plumes on NSW waterwaysA study "found alarmingly high levels of PFOS in the livers of eight dead platypuses, collected from waterways across NSW."
"…Due to the shape of the valley, groundwater from beneath the landfill "ultimately flows towards the Ourimbah Creek catchment”.
"When you look at some of the research that's coming through, clearly it's raw water, our waterways, that we also need to be concerned about because we know PFAS gets into wildlife."
"The research that I've seen, not just in platypus, but in some other species, is really frightening. If that isn't enough to get the government to act on looking at PFAS in waterways, not just drinking water, then I don't know what is."

Tolerating the crushing of pedestrians, cyclists and wildlife with bull bars
" Bull bars are rigid or semi-rigid metal or composite frames mounted to the front of a vehicle.
Pedestrian deaths just reached an 18-year high. Bull bars are part of the problem
In 2025, 197 pedestrians were killed on Australian roads, the highest number since 2007. Almost every state recorded a noticeable spike in pedestrian deaths compared to last year.Cyclist deaths also climbed to 49, up 32% from last year – the highest since 2013.
One key reason appears to be the growing size and weight of vehicles, which can increase the risk of death and injury.Evidence shows bull bars can significantly increase the severity of pedestrian injuries, even in low-speed urban crashes.
Bull bars are not banned in Australian cities. Instead, they are regulated through design standards that are weaker than European pedestrian-protection rules. "
