  • This part is slightly concerning:

    The bill’s scope has also been tweaked – instead of employers having to prove that working from home would have a “significant adverse impact” on efficiency and productivity, they now only have to demonstrate a “material impact”.

    On the other hand, business groups seem to be throwing a tantrum, suggesting the law still has enough teeth:

    On Tuesday, a joint statement was released by the Business Council of Australia, the Australian Industry Group, the Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and others, which said the amendments “do not fix a fundamentally flawed law that will risk Victoria’s economy and send jobs interstate”.

    “The bill should be abandoned, and no amendment can fix its fundamental problems,” the groups said.

    And of course, there’s also a risk of a future government undoing the whole thing, especially since it’s now delayed until mid 2027.








  • If you’re in the US, it’s because all of the major ISPs siphoned up much of the ipv4 address space so they can still offer it to everyone.

    In Australia, on the other hand, most ISPs provide CGNAT by default, although most of them offer a free opt-out and have ipv6. Mobile services are also typically CGNAT, although many offer ipv6 + 464XLAT (an ipv4 compatibility mode using ipv6).

    In developing countries some sort of ipv6 solution is almost universal, particularly those with higher populations such as India, since it would cost an absurd amount of money to buy up that amount of ipv4 address space today.















  • I integrate Miniflux with readeck, which is then combined with a readeck plugin for koreader, allowing me to easily read articles on my ereader, without relying on a paid service.

    I’m also one of those people that still uses custom ROMs on Android, and since the backup and restore situation is still kind of dire if you don’t use Google (and sometimes even with) it’s easier to have most of my configuration and state stored on a server, and so I can wipe a phone with relatively little risk.
