New Zealand recently had a political shakeup and the conservative party got voted in after many years of a progressive government running the show, so this is hardly a surprise.
I wouldn’t necessarily say that Australia is focusing more on the environment, we already don’t do enough. And we’re heading into an election year, so expect everything to stall as everything gets put on hold to be used as “election promises”. And if the conservative coalition wins next year, all environmental policies will be in jeopardy, particularly rollout of renewables, as the conservatives are pushing hard to divert everything to nuclear over wind or solar.

It’s 662% higher vs 7.62 times. So if x is the amount that big tech is reporting, the actual number is x + 662% or x * 7.62, both gives the same result.


Thanks for this, I’m going to try this out on my way home. My main use for Gmaps is to determine the quickest way to and from work during peak hour, so keen to see how Magic Earth’s traffic data compares.
If it helps, there’s very little that carries over between the two games. Without any spoilers, you lose your gear at the start of the BG2, most of which doesn’t carry over anyway. You will start with the level you finished BG1 with, but BG2 boosts brand new characters to a certain level anyway. And I don’t think the games track decisions made throughout like modern RPGs do.
That said, I played it years before Beamdog released that interlude DLC, so maybe things have changed in their Enhanced releases of the games.


On top of the tracking within the ads themselves, you also have all of the general usage data that Google sells. They’re double-dipping.
How is it more weird to get milk from intelligent animals that are capable of giving consent?
You say that, but who do you think the AIs will go after first if they ever do develop actual intelligence? In that scenario, simple manners can go a long way!
