@Asher_Wolf Love how the Dutch police set up a portal to check if you've been compromised on Genesis.
But knowing the rep the Dutch have they sure as hell are using that site as another piece of data collection on potential users of that board

@Samueltates @Asher_Wolf Ahhh yes the smell of warm pee as it's evaporated away on warm electronics is especially aromatic.
Circuit cleaner in a can is handy for that.
Or you know, pouring petrol.ovwr it and lighting it on fire.

@TechDesignau @Asher_Wolf But I knew the computer in the sink photo would be particularly upsetting.
that’s the cooling grill, I decided on another pass with a rinse after a tear down and clean because a certain angelic kitten peed on my computer so it’s a bit of desperate times situation.

Sobering, but not surprising, data. Universities are not necessarily more accessible for people from disadvantaged backgrounds. The discrimination I experienced making my way through uni and still now as a staff member reaffirm the need for better equity. smh.com.au/national/nsw/t…

@ArtistAffame Like the original poster in that thread said "I'm a punk rock girlie" and then goes on about keeping politics out of music.
With absolutely no clue what punk means nor its history

Everytime I hear a shit take like this I think of this song youtu.be/XK5qaRdBvhQ?si… Brent Cobb shut up and sing

NEW PARTY JUST DROPPED: Gen Z Party, which will stand influencers as candidates - starting at state elections next year
Gen Z Party@genzparty_au
The Boomers in government have failed us. Australian Gen Zs have united to create the Gen Z Party, with influencers standing for parliament. The Fossils in government must go.

@Constababble I'm watching someone go through a IT and science degree at the moment from a big name uni.
Pretty sure in some cases I was better off with that lecturer.
Units being redeveloped as it's been taught, emails taking days, if at all, lecturers leaving the room not to be seen again.
English

@TechDesignau Yeeesh I bet they felt real superior and smug about that power trip

Lecturers should have formal education training. Being good at your field as a researcher doesn't make you good at teaching it.
Why do we pay thousands for courses taught by people without edu qualifications when we expect school and pre-school teachers to have edu quals?

What unpopular academia opinion would get you in this situation?

@ArtistAffame Still up under Emily James trio - topic on YouTube.
But main account YT is blank, the Instagram account and Facebook accounts are gone.
And some of the reviews on Facebook that showed up were not kind.

A Secretive Network Is Fighting Indigenous Rights in Australia and Canada, Expert Says scq.io/JyEJfrT via @DeSmog

@Asher_Wolf @Optus Huh so they do learn. I had Optus charge me and extra $100 in a month without notice for 10 lots of 1gb.
I was told they would slow the speed way down rather than automatically adding the 1gb.
I also had to have a conversationneith someone about data usage.
English

@ArtistAffame I know right.
I can't really take most painkillers, Panadol being about it, and the thought of using something that worked only on the pain and had no other side effects was pretty impressive (about on par with the whole immortal thing)
English

@TechDesignau That would be awesome 😂 I feel like I either have to choose pain killers or being productive I can't do both
English

@Asher_Wolf Well there are two profiles that appear to be you and a few news articles about you that are listed as 4 or 5 months old.
Could be the LinkedIn's algorithm deciding that you're in the news so maybe relevant to big corp.
LinkedIn has always seemed a bit messy when it comes to it.
