Or, the other way to interpret it is they have no idea at all.

There's your business opportunity punching you straight in your face!

Rather than specific band/performer I'd have a run through

Triple J's Hottest Australian songs of all time. Of course, it's highly debatable, and may have recency bias

For a different -and maybe much broader- take worth checking out is this mix. It's only about 2 hours long and takes a popular Aussie song of each year from 1971 to 2026. You will hear songs that would never be recommended to you otherwise, though you have to put up with that guy lol. I shouldn't be disrespectful, he's done a huge job even in just putting that all together

If you can pick out some songs you like, then you can go down the artists path, and then find similar artists. Good luck

A little too obvious?

I 'memba having to hover over links to make sure you weren't getting goatse'd.

(Do NOT look this up if you don't know the reference. You have been warned)

the exciting part of climate change.

The atmosphere may be excited, but I am not 😥

Yeah!

We reported it to admin@gov.au!

(Because you dicks didn't tell us what, where, who or how we were meant to report anything!)

PS: Not having a go at parent poster, they are 100% correct and upvoted!

I tried on desktop using Brave (a chrome offshoot), and it gave me the same as mobile: .

There's no way to bypass.

Interestingly, when I loaded on Firefox with the same VPN Aus exit, it was operating as previously.

I seem to have some situations where Private browsing window doesn't work, but a normal browsing window does. Also, sometimes switching to a different VPN server seems to help.

They probably used AI and vibe coded it 😂

Seems like they fingerprint you. Eg, After visiting a sub or two, Firefox no longer works either ....

I keep thinking "Come Join us!"

but then

"Oh, except for that sub, and that one, and that one. I guess they could go join that other lemmy instance"

I'll be OK. I'm sure I've got a 3dfx voodoo graphics card around here somewhere...

"Look at my African American over here!"

If their spying iw any good, the real question is, seeing as AI has eaten all the nVidia and AMD video cards:

When cheap Chinese video cards?

"Look at my African American over here!"

Luckily, I keep getting told that AI will replace my job by 2030, so that won't be a problem.

I got rid of the old vac because the mopping function stopped working well. It still sucked OK, just not sloppy enough :(

It's the unnecessary reliance on apps devices that I'm worried about.

My old robot vac was relatively dumb. It had an app, and you could control it by that, get some stats and other handy stuff. But you could put it anywhere, press the start button, and off it would go and successfully clean the area. The app wasn't really required.

My new robot vac has heaps of extra features. But to run at all, it requires the app. So, if the app stops getting updated, or stops working, or is incompatible with an android update (for me), then it's trash.

Reliance on apps is becoming the norm.

I'm really concerned about new cars. Many seem to rely heavily on OTA for servicing, diagnosis, updates and functionality. With the shakeup in the car industry, how will things go when the brand disappears? And it seems like a lot of them will, including a plethora of the newer Chinese brands...

Yeah, here is my graph

Labour and Nationals 30% each, Greens 13% and ACT 11%

Gonna be a messy government ...

Forebodings for Australia?

This guy is all class, isn't he?

I wonder if they have to hand their phones in too?
