Yep. It's not a good situation there. 12 houses lost so far. If you're local, hope you're keeping an eye on hazardsnear.me

Interesting. Has work been done on differentiating synthetic vs true voices in online discourse? Seeing a lot of problematic bot account #astroturfing interference active in trying to derail community protest movements like @risingtideaus.bsky.social over w/e.

Been on a similar quest recently after cancelling #Spotify family subs, also worth checking out @subvert.fm in addition to Tidal - peers have dug into the Tidal business model and its not all rosy. subvert.fm

It's been a refreshing change of narrative and commentary - look forward to seeing #PointLive get more traction and help to cut through some of the #auspol spin, smokescreens.

Awesome to see Greg the Stop sign in there from #TISM and some #MidnightOil - disappointingly few repping #TimMinchin as one of our polymath musical talents. Kudos for the pic and repping #AusMusic support though. ausmusictshirtday.org.au

It's been a very long time since I would refer to X and others these as neutral infrastructure, but this is a long overdue level of insight into the methods used by bad faith actors to poison the well of public discourse.

Going beyond thermodynamics, worth also looking at the leakiness of energy systems - and the health/climate impacts of those leaks. @txsharon.bsky.social doing great work in this space with @oilfieldwitness.bsky.social for tracking #methane

Pfft. Wait till the #cicadas kick in. Then report back..

I'm frankly more inclined to listen to the farmers speaking with the Clean Energy Council. Less ideologues and vested interests, more on-the-ground economic impacts and viable futures voices. So frustrating to see the poison-the-well tactics impacting farmers diversification prospects.

@senatorsurfer.bsky.social - highly relevant to todays Senate Committee on Information Integrity on Climate Change and Energy.

This is useful space for @timothyjgraham.bsky.social to also comment given the work he's done at @qutdmrc.bsky.social on how misinformation players weaponise the information space, create polarisation. The #southerlyten example of pre/post polarisation in Gippsland vs Hunter = useful.

If you're an #ebikesafety advocate, interested in meeting kids #emobility needs for school transport, this program is worth checking out - digital license, online safety course required, #ebike plated: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIek... More at ebikesafetyaustralia.com.au/e-bike-schoo...

Encouraging to see the approach of plated, licensed #ebike riders as a school level initiative, after meeting with and hearing from local principals who would also benefit from this: ebikesafetyaustralia.com.au/e-bike-schoo... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIek...

With #eMotos sitting outside the industry sales reporting patterns for #EVcouncil #BEV and #FCAI its very hard to know how many of them are sold, based on models, speed capacity. Would be good to close this gap @aevanational.bsky.social Thoughts? @bridieev.bsky.social @thedriven.io

Would love to see the FCAI also able to take account of the sales of #eMotos but requires retailers to then become registered Motor Vehicle Dealerships, helps track size of the problem of legal vs illegal products. @aevanational.bsky.social
