  • The New York Times prohibits AI vendors from devouring its content
  • This whole thing has made me wonder given search engine indexing of articles and creation of search engine knowledge graphs.

    Though I assume stuff behind paywalls isn’t indexed.

  • The absolute state of housing in Australia at the minute - rent a caravan in a driveway in a semi-rural locality, only $200/week!
  • Yeesh. I wonder how many people are doing this, renting out their caravans like this.

  • USB-C confirmed for the iPhone 15 in new leaked images - Macworld
  • I’m still surprised they didn’t just go MagSafe only for non pro models.

  • www.theguardian.com Report finds YouTube more popular than TikTok for young book buyers

    Despite recent stories about the popularity of BookTok, Neilsen’s survey found more of those aged between 14-25 searched YouTube for new reads

    Bike riders wear helmets and high-vis vests to reduce their vulnerability on the road. Problem is a new study finds this dehumanises cyclists, putting them more at risk of aggression from drivers.

    Promise in Flame by Sarah Hawke (audiobook)

    Finished off the audiobook, this the second part of a prequel series to other Sarah Hawke fantasy series.

    It’s really been a pretty fun story that’s riffing off House of the Dragon to some degree. And it is a series that feel a bit different to her other works that I’ve read that have been a bit more interested in sexual relationships. Not that this has none of that, just this feels more interested in other aspects.

    Now comes the long wait for book three.

    Really am enjoying Ellory Lane and Harry Frost as narrators, especially Ellory.

  • I have tried it, but really I am pretty happy with Librarything. I think my main annoyance was the importer processing hardly any of my books.

  • Running Microsoft Teams in Parallels on Apple Silicon
  • It is. I did wonder given I run the MacOS version on my M2 Mac mini just fine.

    Private school funding increased twice as much as public schools’ in decade after Gonski, data shows
  • How not shocking. And how not shocking that Labor isn't reversing this as I'm sure all their kids go to private schools. And it just creates a vicious cycle in terms of schools and school resources.

  • Ancient historical fiction?
  • The Metamorphoses (aka The Golden Ass) by Apuleius.

  • Using Memmy on Mac
  • And ah yeah, you can refresh Memmy by clicking and dragging.

  • Using Memmy on Mac
  • I know. I’m mostly just surprised MacOS doesn’t expose a way to refresh. It’s not like that pull down action is uncommon in iOS apps.

  • Using Memmy on Mac

    So yeah, I’m using Memmy as my desktop Lemmy client.

    I does work OKish. I just wish there was a refresh button.

    'It belongs in the bin.' A definitive ranking of Arnott's Biscuits from diabolical to God-tier.
  • I wouldn’t go that far, but things like choc ripple I refuse. Though Id call milk coffee bin worthy.

  • Work-from-home deal 'groundbreaking', but business groups warn of CBD 'death knell'
  • It would be nice to see it encourage more local business growth to cater to the transition to WFH. Though that would be more food outlets than retail.

  • www.abc.net.au Work-from-home deal 'groundbreaking', but business groups warn of CBD 'death knell'

    Thousands of Australian public sector staff will be allowed to permanently work from home following a "groundbreaking" union deal — but business lobby groups in one capital city say any move to follow suit at local level would be a "death knell" for CBD retail.

    More likely that office block owners are the upset ones.

    What is the best way to get books/things to read for free/cheap?
  • Kindle Unlimited, a Audible sub and public library mostly.

  • What is everyone planning to watch this new season?
  • Just started the Gene of AI. Good science fiction about a AI future.

  • My Adventures With Superman S01E01

    Too bad it’s geolocked.

    The series' cross-gender appeal is a big part of why it continues to be revived time and time again.
