Convinced that napster was stealing all his moneys and pretty much cemented the idea that people pirating things means you've lost BILLIONS OF REVENUE as opposed to an indicator that you've got a supply chain or pricing problem.
I saw a comment about how it was a character piece, not a plot piece and i think that nailed why i find it so dissatisfying- Ruby really doesn't inveigle me as a character.

If you're talking white people, technically cooks cottage (built 30 years before the first fleet) but it was brought over and reassembled in the 1930's lol
Indigenous, probably the eel traps / farming system. That's 9,000 years old iirc
Budj Bim eel farm and accompanying stone huts. Massive aquaculture farm / village the Gunditjmara people built that not only secured their own food supply, but is so large and effective for trade the term 'industrial level' has been used
So despite climate change, Australia's federal government has just committed an extra $3.25 billion into building a toll road and a 20-lane freeway widening.
"Pouring an extra $3.25 billion worth of federal funds into Melbourne’s North East Link is a good use of taxpayer money, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has insisted, despite the project’s cost doubling just a few months ago.
...
"The North East Link – which includes 6½ kilometres of tunnels – will stretch from Bulleen to Greensborough. It will widen the Eastern Freeway by up to 20 lanes.
"Allan revealed in December that the 10-kilometre toll road had more than doubled in cost since it was first announced.
"The toll road was initially budgeted at $10 billion and reassessed in 2019 at $15 billion. But the government revealed last year that the updated cost estimate was $26 billion."
As a tech, i'm fucking howling because 99% of answers to any given question is already bullshit that ranges from useless to dangerous.
"The machine" can't tell the difference and it's going to be considered authoratitive in its blithe stupidity. hoover up SA all you want, you're just gonna agregate it with bullishit and poison your own well anyway
Masses of tests culminating in 9 months of chemo on magrath, multiple meds and hospital stays from complications including two stints in ICU, CAT scans, blood tests, etc etc. $0 AUD at one of the best cancer care hospitals in the world.

They're not interested in progression, or resolution, just ranting at perceived wrongs. It's the standard outrage trope parading as morality.
Every single relationship they see is 'toxic'. Every action is labelled as 'toxic'. They literally rant on the immorality of actions that within the ahow itself are painted as being not only bad, but right over the moral event horizon and accelerating as if it's some astounding revelation only they can see and must bring to the attention of the blind stupid masses. Their entire argument hinges on treating fictional characters as moral guidelines to real life as opposed to complex beings that serve a story.
We all know the fandom kind. It's a blinkered childish media consumption that only see the most basic of surface levels and brands anything they personally dislike or can't understand as bad.
I pointed out the fault is in their misconception that trek 'teaches morals', it is simply a television franchise. Their measured response was to accuse me of enabling oppression. Ain't nobody got time for this sort of ridiculousness in fandom spaces.
Its incorrect wording but i shorthanded it to 'embrace the sociopathy'. Very nice little koan to drop on the programmed reaction i've had to natural ASD reactions
'You can't do that it's sociopathic!' No ma it's ASD and i'm tired of pretending i'm not to save your face.
