@jumpbuck7 @CraigSarg73 I'd much rather listen to to TGA than your utterly worthless opinion.

@CraigSarg73 The TGA is completely captured by industry and why are we paying for drugs like Paxlovid and Tamiflu (aka Scamiflu) which are very expensive and next to useless.

All the ON isn’t going to cut health . From their website. How good will it be paying $800 for insulin.

@DrNeilStone I had four vaccines over the last week - COVID, Influenza, Pneumococcal and Shingles. I'm much the same as before except I'm far less likely to suffer from some nasty and potentially fatal diseases. The choice could hardly be simpler.

Literally every vaccine researcher I know vaccinates themselves and their kids

@caitoz But lithium batteries are good in houses which rarely have fire suppression systems?

Turns out data centers are highly flammable. Just an interesting fact I thought I'd share.

@GregMarSci The problem is not nuclear waste. The problem is being zip tied to the US military. Get a grip.

There can be NO doubt that Albanese knows the nuclear waste component of AUKUS would be totally on the nose with the electorate. The secrecy behind this deal with USA shows just how bad the deal is. Labor is f*cking the country with AUKUS. michaelwest.com.au/foi-to-die-alb…

@Americalashes @JamesHu27192912 @ErseFelina Electricity supply. Staff. Costs.

@JamesHu27192912 @ErseFelina If Ai needs water to cool it why not just put the centers in Alaska and Antarctica and Greenland and New England ect ect and in Canada and other cold climates?

@prissmorgen @Globalstats11 Australia was attacked. Darwin was bombed. There was bitter fighting between Australian and Japanese troops in New Guinea. The Australian army and air force inflicted the first land defeat on the Japanese army at the Battle of Milne Bay in New Guinea.

@Globalstats11 Come on. Alaska and Australia? As a technicality, but that didn't even amount to a sideshow? India? Maybe a tip of it. This is a wild exaggeration.

@LemerondChef @Rainmaker1973 Biofuels need a hideous amount of land.

@Rainmaker1973 The first Diesel engine ran off of seed oil and was the new trend during that time in the 1800's, Big Oil pushed it out. Old tech and new alternatives are good for competition. We cant sustain at the current Petro consumption rate, we need alternatives.

Japan’s major oil company ENEOS has started producing synthetic fuel using CO₂ and hydrogen derived from water at its Yokohama facility. It currently produces about 1 barrel a day, but aims to scale to around 10,000 barrels per day by 2040.

@bykagetoki @ChrisGatlin5 @Rainmaker1973 @grok If it can be produced with heat or heat+electricity, nuclear is a contender. Nuclear heat is much cheaper energy than nuclear electricity.

@ChrisGatlin5 @Rainmaker1973 @grok 電力で作れる、というのが大きいかと。 たとえコストが高くても、電力で作れるならば、クリーン発電で賄えるのですから。

@patrickadownes They are disappointed that the mean is not higher and the median lower.

It is pretty funny how the right complain

@P_bogan @nvolpewild Data centres used 2% of the electricity supplied on the NEM (National Electricity Market) in 2025. That's not half of rooftop PV which was about 13% aemo.com.au/-/media/files/…

@nvolpewild I read Data Centres are now using half of all the rooftop solar. What a waste of all that effort over the last 15yrs. We are doomed. ketanjoshi.co/2026/04/30/aus…

I just want to SCREAM & CRY! 🥹 Years of battling mines & fracking and now we have to deal with something even worse for wildlife… AI DATA CENTRES! 😤

@YourAnonTV Many people don't know that Trump applied for a license for a casino in Sydney in the 1980s. The police refused it on the grounds of suspected mafia connections.

🚨🇦🇱JUST IN: More than 100,000 citizens are protesting in Tirana, Albania, against the controversial resort project linked to Trump-Kushner, which is planned to be built in the south of Albania. ⚡️The project has received approval from the Albanian government, but the protesters are demanding its cancellation over its suspicious offshore financing, as the project would destroy the ecosystem in a protected area and landscape #Albania

@YourAnonTV Good to see. A planned/proposed Trump tower on the Gold Coast in Australia has been cancelled due to public opposition. There are few places where Trump and his crooked family are welcome.

@peterrhague But doesn't.

@quoll21 The WHO, which has its own issues, could exist distinct from the UN.

I’ll throw down the gauntlet to internationalists - what is the case for the UN existing at all? Why shouldn’t we just get rid of it?

@simonmaechling Well, for starters CO2 is well mixed in the atmosphere ie you don't get a free pass from climate change because your country is a low emitter. But you should know that.

Riddle me this. Why is it that France burns the least amount of fossil fuels and emits the least CO₂ for electricity generation yet is the centre of this so called "heat dome"?

@PaigeSully88 @hashjenni There are ways and engineering means of reducing freshwater use. Eg closed loop cooling where water purity is only needed for the closed loop. Might even be able to use sea water cooling if available. As in thermal power plants - coal or nuclear.

@hashjenni Because the minerals in recycled water would be corrosive to the metal. It is the biggest flaw with the adoption of AI and increased reliance on tech. The data centers will rob us of necessary resources

Can’t wrap my head around why AI data centers need fresh water. Not recycled, not wastewater. Fresh, drinkable water, burned through by the millions of gallons just to keep servers cool. Why are we using a basic human necessity to prop up machines?

@Genjisoch @ick_real As honey bees are not native to Australia, and ecosystems seemed to manage quite well without them, any claim to generality in your statement as it relates to honey bees is false.

@ick_real Honeybee is very critical for the ecosystem. Without there Bees, the whole ecosystem can collapse.

Honey Bees make our food, A.I. doesn't. Save the Honey Bees, not data centers

@ick_real Honey Bees are livestock and don't really need saving. Some wild bees may in fact need saving. There are something like 2000 species of bees in Australian alone. I prefer real conservation to cheap slogans.

@DLBCLsurvivor @AngelicaOung Negative gearing is about to be abolished for newly acquired assets.

@AngelicaOung All countries have housing inflation but Australias is exacerbated by " Negative Gearing" which relates to investment properties. Look it up its quite interesting.

Just been on the phone with a friend in Australia. The housing situation there sounds increasingly intolerable, with costs running ahead of wages and extreme tightness in the renter's market. Used to be you can buy a house in Sydney with 5 years salary. Now it's more like 12. People blame immigrants. But shouldn't they be blaming salary? "Even without the immigrants, we would have run into the same kind of problems, just 10 years later. But if you shut out the immigrants now, what's going to happen to the economy?" There are a lot of moving pieces to this problem. And Australia is hardly alone. There's a toxic loop where people vote their interests and since the majority are houseowners they vote for line goes up. The young and marginalized can't outvote them, and eventually buy in at inflated rates precariously. Now what happens to society if line ever goes down? But can line keep going up forever?

@MbarkCherguia Hello Tetanus.

Aussies walking barefoot everywhere like shoes are illegal Is this normal in Australia? Be honest… you doing this or nah? 👇
