there is no need for flamethrowers on the pitch at a ALM game when it's still 35 degrees at 7:30. Why would you add to the heat? #MelbDerby

Well thank God for that! The #NACC is going investigate six officials linked to the illegal #Robodebt scheme after reviewing its decision not to - they should get rid of Brereton while they're at it! theconversation.com/nacc-belated... #auspol

Brereton is a disgrace, covering up for mates? #auspol
In October, the commission’s oversight body found NACC chief Paul Brereton engaged in “officer misconduct” after he mistakenly failed to remove himself entirely from deliberations.

Surely Paul Brereton has to resign.

OpenAI says it has evidence China’s DeepSeek used its model to train competitor White House AI tsar David Sacks raises possibility of alleged intellectual property theft

OpenAI says it has found evidence that Chinese artificial intelligence start-up DeepSeek used the US company’s proprietary models to train its own open-source competitor, as concerns grow over a potential breach of intellectual property. The San-Francisco-based ChatGPT maker told the Financial Times it had seen some evidence of ‘distillation’, a technique used by developers to obtain better performance on smaller models by using outputs from larger, more capable models. This allows them to achieve similar results on specific tasks at a much lower cost. OpenAI declined to comment further on details of its evidence. Its terms of service state users cannot “copy” any of its services or “use output to develop models that compete with OpenAI”.

I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing. OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT. They're crying their eyes out. What a bunch of hypocritical little babies. Cry more, freaks.

In Australia its a cheaper to cause an oil spill than to get a nursing degree

In Norway they tax their oil industry and give kids free degrees while in Australia we subsidise the oil industry and charge kids a fortune to go to uni

Priorities matter

An Irankunda jersey (incl shipping to Aus) from the Grasshopper FC shop is $323. Switzerland is the most expensive place in the universe.

My fave part of new years is @evanmg.bsky.social ‘s end of

And not noticing.

I love how Denmark isn’t taking any shit from Donald Trump. 🇩🇰 🤣

Couldn’t think of two more different players, stylistically.

That movie ruined that song for me

Love this.

#BREAKING 🚨 Former long-standing Liberal MP Kevin Andrews has died aged 69

Pour one out for the “politics should stay out of sport” crowd now that Albanese has enlisted the NRL in a geopolitical power play against China.

Haven’t West Ham suffered enough this season. Terrible results, Antonio car accident this weekend and now Martin Tyler again on comms this morning #WHUWOL

If only we had more cities with 1.7m people without a team

Just about every fucked up issue this country had, both economically and politically can be traded directly back to this bald headed cunt...

Completely sold us out for pennies...

Public service
Natural resources
Impossible housing market

And a big dash of racism too

Fucking destructive prick

That’s him gone I reckon.

I think we’re on the right pathway but it’s meant an awkward generation where at an elite level we lack both physicality and technical quality.

Fantastic warmup kit (don’t know where this has screenshotted from)

Loving all the AL content this year. Nice one Max

When pubs are distancing themselves from Aus Day, you know the day is on its last legs

Do you think we’ll go in for a striker in Jan?

For the love of God stop showing me bad takes from Twitter. If I wanted to see bad takes from Twitter, I'd be on Twitter.

Can’t believe someone got a photo of it

I’m sorry what
