Day 27 cont 💰🏡🥩🥔🥕🍠

#PeterDutton said there was “a lot of anger in the #suburbs,” with many families unable to put #food on the table.

“That’s the reality of life for many Australians under #AnthonyAlbanese, and I think there are many Australians in outer #metropolitan areas who feel that this prime minister hasn’t been honest, he’s out of his depth, that he has prioritised the interests of #Greens voters in inner city, #Sydney and #Melbourne, many of whom are quite #affluent.”

The opposition leader said Albanese had abandoned people in regions and in the outer suburbs.

“We see families who are doing it hard, they’re not going to vote for Labor this time, and they may have been Labor voters all their lives.”

Day 22 cont 🚜🌾 🤼 🏡🏘️🏠🏠🏠

“Traditionally, #Queensland candidates, whether federal or state, promise to take the fight to #Canberra. They project themselves as defiantly parochial, unashamedly maroon, with a vested interest in the north. More recently, however, #power has shifted from the #regions to the #urban south-east, which is more likely to welcome new #arrivals from other states than Queensland country towns. Amid all this growth, the lines of #responsibility have blurred between federal, state and even local government. Rather than fighting Canberra, the parties – including the Greens, who thrive on street-level combat – have taken to #fighting each other.

At the last election, the #Greens picked up three seats in Greater #Brisbane, riding the winds of change. The #TealMovement was unsuccessful in its first federal foray into Queensland, in the seat of Groom, although Suzie Holt enjoyed a healthy flow of preferences and is running again.

For now, the closest thing Queensland has to #independents are Bob Katter and Gerard Rennick, but the south-east is becoming used to newcomers.”

“The #Sun on #Earth” - from #nuclear #fusion #technology

First of all, I would like to explain the #physical #basics of nuclear fusion. I will try to objectively work out the #advantages and #disadvantages of the new technology. Then, in a next step, I will present the #current #state of #practical #implementation of the technology and venture an #outlook into the #near/distant #future.

"In this emerging #AIera, the very ideas of community and human connection are poised for redefinition.

#Smaller, purpose-driven #communities are the future. The desire for smaller, more intimate communities is undeniable. People are abandoning massive platforms in favor of tight-knit groups where trust and shared values flourish and content is at the core. The future of community building is in going back to the #basics."

A colleague asked me for a general purpose introductory text to #OpenBSD other than the FAQ at openbsd.org/faq/index.html.

I pointed to my on "What every IT person needs to know about OpenBSD" - the three part blog.apnic.net version starting with blog.apnic.net/2021/10/28/open as the better version than the full nxdomain.no/~peter/what_every_, but I would also like to hear about other web-accessible ones.

Followups welcome!
