One for @GordyPls - another exhibit in your “irrational anti-Halloween stupidity” hall of infamy.

Hamas:
“Israelis love life. We love death”
This summarises the conflict really well.
Hamas gets it. Israel gets it. Many outsiders don’t.
A must watch video till the end. Many different points brought up.
The rise of Not-antisemite-pro-palestine-anti-hamas-pro-jew-anti-israel-definitely-not-antisemite.
I am genuinely surprised by the western far-left falling for the Palestine narrative.
It’s almost like they are so bound by ideology, there is no room left for nuance.
@CommBank security is equal parts overzealous and farcical.
They stopped the transaction despite me approving it through the app. Missed the call from the security team and now I’m on hold for 40 minutes.
Send me tips on how not to lose my shit when someone finally answers.

🤓 as another financial year ends, it's good to note renewables going from strength to strength:
• renewables: 36.8%, ⬆️ from 33.3% last year
• coal: 57.6%, ⬇️ from 60.1%
• gas: 5.5%, ⬇️ from 6.5%
lowest coal since NEM began in 1999.
lowest gas since 2006.

Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with just 5 hrs of storage (24 GW / 120 GWh)
Results:
last week: 100% RE
last 80 weeks: 99.2% RE (1/4)

Near the Georgia border crossing into Russia, protesters are playing the Ukrainian national anthem and trolling the Russians who are leaving.
‘In surveys, most of you support the war. So why now are you leaving?’ reads the sign carried by the man draped in the Ukraine flag.

Wanted to say something that'll be valid no matter what we hear from Putin today. He's a failed Hitler, and even the real Hitler failed.
Unlike Hitler and Mussolini, Putin can't tap into the kind of ideology and arguments that motivated Germans and Italians to join the Waffen SS and Blackshirts, says @Bershidsky trib.al/wnOEF1A
General mobilisation will be catastrophic for the Kremlin regime.
Looks like Russia may be ready to take things up a gear in Ukraine.
The Duma just passed a bill introducing the concepts of “mobilization” and “martial law” into law. The upper house could approve it tomorrow, after which Putin will sign it.

New Russian recruits would likely be of little help on the battlefield as there would not be enough time to train them, @TheStudyofWar #Russia Researcher @KatStepanenko tells @CNN.

The reality dysfunction that these guys are currently in is truly staggering. Seeing the cracks starting to appear is quite delicious though. #СлаваУкраїні
Currently recovering from the shock of my broker (oneofftrades) requiring a bank verification by @basiqio. Which, in turn, would have me type in my BANK username and password into their app.
Holy shitballs, this is mind boggling.
