    19 Tasmanians have received indefinite bans from entering any of the state's public native forestry estate — an area covering 812,000 hectares. It follows protests against native logging near Takayna/Tarkine, but most of the protesters live locally, and say the bans will impact their lives.

    Pod of orcas trapped in drift ice off Japanese coast
  • The movie, "Big Miracle", seems to have been based on a real event known as "Operation Breakthrough". There was a time where something like this would have the entire world holding it's collective breath and doing all it can to save the animals. Today, hardly anyone knows it's happening. 😢

    ‘Your Product Is Killing People’: Tech Leaders Denounced Over Child Safety
  • I mean, sure, but I feel it probably wasn't the greatest unmasking. Some of the stuff was just plain ignorant and embarrassing ... for the lawmakers. Like this exchange with the Tik Tok CEO. I feel like they probably don't really understand what they are up-in-arms about. 🤷‍♀️

    Apple's rules to allow third-party app stores in the EU are not beneficial for users or developers
  • Epic lost their case with Apple regarding Fortnite, yet now Epic are looking to make Fortnite available on iOS in EU. But from the article it seems an alternate "app marketplace" would still need Apple approval anyway. It will be interesting to see how all this is going to work.

    Elon Musk tells advertisers: ‘Go fuck yourself’ - The Verge
  • “That is what everybody on Earth will know,” he said. “We’ll be gone, and it’ll be gone because of an advertiser boycott.”

    Oh no, not at all, dear ... everybody on Earth is perfectly aware that it is YOU who is killing the company. Twisting the narrative to feel better within yourself ain't gonna change the fact. Why would any advertiser worth a damn, want to be associated with Stormfront 2.0?
