Myth: Home batteries only benefit the well-off who can afford them.
Reality: Time-shifting energy use benefits all electricity users; there's an equity dividend.
Here’s the story of our strata community's latest adventure in sustainability upgrades.

Errr…
“Days after Senator Hanson declared she had the ability to run the country as prime minister, The Australian has confirmed that One Nation Queensland Division is three years overdue in filing ­crucial annual reports…”
So capable…

@Teslarati I wouldn’t. But thousands of Australian tradies “should”.
Pension off those stinky diesel utes 🙏

True @GrogsGamut & @TheAusInstitute
GDP has never been a measure of human health & happiness.
But it’s not the fault of data centres if regulators fail to ensure they aren’t powered by 100% renewables.
South Australia decoupled economic growth from emissions growth years ago.

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

“If you’re starting to think GDP might not really capture what matters in life, you very much are not mistaken," writes Greg Jericho, Chief Economist at The Australia Institute.

Interesting. Because @OpenAI chose to bypass the Apple AppStore, the ChatGPT App doesn't get updated automatically by MacOS. So users have to update it manually via the somewhat clunky ChatGPT -> Check for updates. Similarly for Codex App.

Model Y was the best selling vehicle of any kind in Australia for the month of May

Making it the first electric car in history to lead the overall AU sales charts across all fuel types

Wow. Google has been busy fixing serious vulnerabilities in Chrome. Version 148 last week & 149 this week.
Oh, and don’t trust it when Google claims the updates happen automatically…

@SawyerMerritt Hi @SawyerMerritt
I’ve never understood why so many pay the premium for a fat Model Y instead of a sleek Model 3. Is it the insatiable lust for something that looks more like an impenetrable 4WD gas guzzler?

AUKUS is the biggest defence project in Australian history and yet it still hasn’t been properly scrutinised. Good on the APSF for establishing the AUKUS Public Inquiry. Submissions can be made here: https://t.co/0Pu8VqrAAC

Hey @ABC
Why do you keep calling Israel’s action in Lebanon an “incursion” when it’s clearly yet another invasion?
Language matters.
If we can’t rely on the ABC for accurate, fearless reporting, we’re done.
Please follow AP policy.

Robert Marks on @Tesla FSD (Supervised) after buying a Model Y:

"Its self-driving is the most impressively engineered consumer product since the smartphone. I say this as a practicing electrical and computer engineering professor with decades of experience in algorithms and artificial intelligence.

Among others, I’ve showed off my Tesla to a control theory professor, a retired Marine fighter pilot, and a retired police officer. All were agog.

Whether Tesla ultimately dominates the future of transportation or merely helps ignite it, one thing is clear: the automobile is being reinvented before our eyes. For those like me who grew up thinking of cars as engines, gears, and gas tanks, stepping into a Tesla feels less like buying a new car and more like getting a glimpse of tomorrow."

Brilliant defence of Labor’s Budget from @ClareONeilMP on #Insiders this morning.
In each segment of the community, relevant advocacy groups support the significant reforms.
No mention of stronger protections for renters, unfortunately, which should be part of housing reforms.

Sad to see Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket explode on the launch pad at Cape Canaveral

This will build resilience within the team. Obviously it’s a heartbreaking moment, but they will be better because of this.

A well-argued rejoinder to the bilious tide of saint-claiming going on right now. From a business owner/originator who clearly knows what he’s talking about. Bravo

BHP made $91 billion in profit in the last ten years.

All while getting over $5 billion in taxpayer funded subsidies for their petrol & accounting for a third of our total emissions.

Greenlit by Labor, the Libs & One Nation.

My Human Rights Bill tabled today spells out in plain terms, the rights and freedoms that everyone in Australia is entitled to. It requires that fairness, respect, dignity and compassion must be put at the centre of all government decision and polices. #auspol #politas
