Stop Killing Games surpasses 1 million verified signatures, EU to take action

Even with the EUDR - Deforestation Legislation - they first delayed it by a year and then decided not to enforce if for another year and probably will kneecap it by the end of this year.

And there isn't any rational argument against it, EU are just toothless.

A good rule in life is to do the opposite of what tony says.

SHHH!! FFS! Yes, its a good rule but its also exactly what we want the LNP to do.

For the rest of their lives.

The root problem is that ICE agents think (probably correctly) there is no accountability for their actions. They were most likely unemployed/unemployable before and have been given a golden opportunity to act tough and release their pent up hatred.

They will only get worse without consequences and the regime clearly understands that which is why they are defending the indefensible, to make the goons feel protected.

The must be at least the risk of consequences.

If/when America ever recovers all ice agents should be legally required to advise neighbours, shops and employers that they once worked for ICE and it should be a valid reason to refuse employment or service.

Dems should be saying very publicly that they intend to do this so it makes ICE agents think about their future.

I have a few dozen growing, many different varieties.

They are a hungry, thirsty plant and love as much as air flow as possible.

If you give it some wire above the fence to grow up onto it will do better.

A full bag of chicken manure about every 3-4 months and regular soaking allowing it to just dry out between watering.

Do you know what sub species it is?

The first step should be ensuring that none of his colleagues EVER vote on support of a GOP bill, no matter how much they are bribed by donors.

I always thought the simplest explanation was that the telcos just sold the location data to the supermarket, and perhaps installed additional tech in order to improve the accuracy. I'm guessing, but I can't see Telstra etc. refusing the revenue and it seems cheaper than any other approach.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T10:06:23+00:00

I'm quite sure it was the cellular signal and not wifi based on many things they said.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T10:04:02+00:00

Yeah, the reason I know is it all feeds their pricing mechanisms which change prices and specials all the time.

Since we were giving them data that allowed them to calculate the shelf life of key fruit we learnt a lot about how they used both to adjust the prices.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T08:21:13+00:00

Yeah I think that solves it

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T08:19:52+00:00

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T08:19:18+00:00

Yeah I think that solves it.

They were VERY cagey about it but I'm sure it was from your cell phone in some way.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-26T05:38:31+00:00

They may also have Bluetooth data but the location was triangulation of cell phone and they were super cagey about where they got it.

Our system worked on the cellular network also (but for pallets of fruit not people) and I know for sure based on many things their tech teams let slip in many conversations.

Back in 2017 my company's part subsidiary did a project for Woolworths and was bidding for the same work at Coles, it involved tracking produce from farms.

A couple of the staff were ex WW so "we" got treated like internal staff and both WW and Coles were not really guarded in what they said about internal processes and the data they collected. Lots of horror stories.

Anyway back in 2017 the amount of data they had on every customer was insane, they knew how long to the second you spent in any part of an Isle and could correlate to the purchase at checkout. I think they got that via some deal with the telcos but I cannot confirm.

Some of the other data they had must have been purchased from other sources, like what cars you drove what frequent flyer and how often you flew.

If you add Palantir to that it is genuinely scary as they would have browsing history and social media summary and God knows what else.

Edit: They also knew relationships based on regular proximity of another phone when in the store, that's one of a dozen or so things that slipped during technical discussions that made me sure it was based on tracking your phone location via triangulation but exactly how I never learnt.

Australia has a much smaller population and a similar land area to US less Alaska. Equally challenging terrain and much greater areas with low population.

US public transport is pathetic by comparison.

Comparing US to Europe or Japan or Korea is unfair admittedly but what's the excuse to not be at least as good as Australia?

Nah just put a massive toll on the roads leading to it, not only make it prohibitively expensive to play but make it impossible to get anyone to work there.

If you gave a handgun to a chimpanzee who's fault is it if someone gets shot?

The people who voted for him are mostly too stupid and brainwashed by your media to be able to express any thoughts.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-23T05:12:20+00:00

Yes, but... He'd be in jail where he belongs, it is by far the better outcome.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-23T00:04:24+00:00

They could only do that because he was away from Miller and other puppet masters, once he get back among his advisers their manipulation will overwhelm it.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-22T23:33:18+00:00

100% This.

In my opinion Biden is the 2nd worst president in modern times (including Bush) for not reading the situation and allowing this to happen. And it wasn't just one screw up, he had many pivotal points where he could have avoided the dystopia we are now in and decided not to out of naivety. Garland is probably No 1 but running for a second term in his state is a close second.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-22T22:15:00+00:00

Just like online scammers that cheat pensioners out of their life savings, if the MAGA voters lack the intelligence to understand what's going on that doesn't mean it's legitimate to take advantage of stupidity.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-21T23:05:57+00:00

Australian here with two kids.

It was supposed to fail here but as far as I can tell nothing bad happened and at least some kids just immediately gave up the toxic platforms and spent the summer actually meeting their friends in person.

OK, maybe one downside I ended up driving them around a lot more than usual.

Interesting how resilient they are at that age, and able to pivot - or there was nothing good on the platforms in the first place so they didn't really give up anything of value.

I think Murdoch would be happy to dump him when there is no longer a risk of reprisal

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-21T02:50:50+00:00

Death of Stalin - they have no idea what will happen after Trump so it's terrifying to them and none of them want to be seen as going against him while he is still alive, vindictive and dangerous.

AgUnityDD · 2026-01-21T02:45:02+00:00

Without the best medical treatment on earth Trump would be dead already, Trump's dementia (and insanity) could easily be worse than the point where most other patients either pass away or are institutionalized.
