Screenshot from a zfold showing the YouTube music app while a video is playing and comments are shown with the vid a tiny square in the top left corner that takes up about 3% of the screen. Meanwhile the comments amount to 7 line of text across 3 comments. Insanely crap use of screen real estate. So much dead space

Youtube music has had an UI update, took a while to work out where the queue is but my biggest bug bear is still there. If you look at the comments while looking at a video, the vid is miniscule even on a zfold.
7 lines of actual text on all of this screen real estate. #google #enshitification

Love not visiting petrol stations and not having pumped the equivalent of 12000L When people ask me how long it takes to charge I reply no time to plug in and how long would it take to stand there to pump that amount of petrol
It is odd that we spend so much effort to extract just to burn it once.

Sadly, this says a lot about how laggard our ABC is/has been on the need to electrify everything, including transport, and charging networks.

I do hope they get into much more detail on the benefits of going all electric. This could & should be a regular feature/series of ABC programming & news.

The more conspiratorial wing of the family when trmp came to power were saying Kash would make a great FBI leader to clean up the corruption. I'd never really heard from him but boy were they wrong on that dimwhitted sack of hammers. (They are wrong on everything)

Chart comparing petrol prices a d electricity prices from May 2020 until Sept 2022.
Petrol prices in an orange line rising from just over $1 per litre to $2 per litre.
Electricity prices are a steady 30 cents per kWh with a couple of very small rises each July.
Chart is designed to show petrol price volatility vs a more steady electricity price of the standard tariff.

Back when we first got our EV I tracked 95Ron petrol against WA electricity prices. Good old covid oil demand.
Standard electricity tariff here hasn't risen than much and we now pay 8c off peak if not charging off solar.

Australia's largest industrial climate pollution scheme is also its most poorly understood.

Today the federal government is releasing a new round of data today: details of the second year of the reformed scheme ahead of a review this year.

Here's what we know so far...

Converting wind to hydrogen is such an inefficient way to treat energy. Burning stuff throws 70% away.

Luckily Perrh doesn't have to rely on Dam water and will have its third desalination plant come online soon.

There are a few moments with what id call big feelings, but I think it's the pacing and length that may be the main problem. I would take my 10yo to it.

Such a good way to stop giving properly crap companies like BP, Exxon, Shell, your money who have no interest in stopping what they are doing. (Public transport even better)

"No solar farms on prime farmland"? My dude, you are growing fuel corn. A single field of solar replaces several fields of fuel corn which means THERE WILL BE MORE PRIME FARMLAND to use for FOOD.
