Smart Traveller gov au is STILL incorrectly giving false and dangerous information to people about traveling to the US, it's STILL saying "Entry requirements are strict." and "Exercise normal safety precautions" and not a single mention of random people being rounded up and forced into prison camps!

* DO NOT RELY UPON THE DANGEROUS MISINFORMATION ON THE SMARTRAVELLER GOV AU WEBSITE *

Ways an "AI" LLM is trying to kill you today, part 37:

An article on maintaining and repairing your hydraulic jack (trolley jack, bottle jack) recommended using a good water-based fluid to refill your jack.

Great job, everybody!

How to get away from Cape Foulwind
With a name like Cape Foulwind, you may understand why you want to get away. And how far you must go.
Here the Europeans, the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman, anchored in Aotearoa (and later naming it New Zealand), for the first time in 1642. The weather was probably good, and he called the outcrop Cliff Rock.
Then the English Captain James Cook found this place in 1770 under probably worse conditions. He named it Cape Foulwind. Since the English won the competition of ruling Aotearoa, the name stuck.

Signs, and what to do
This signpost is close to the fur seal colony in Tauranga Bay, on a windy, salty and fresh spot to get a good outlook of the area. On this track going south from Cape Foulwind Lighthouse there are stiff cliffs down to pebble beaches and the Tasman Sea, and low rolling hills towards the mountains in east.
This area is a nice spot to stop, relax and enjoy the outlook and beach, especially if you are a surfer. Or hike along the trails and exhibit some coastal flora and fauna of the West Coast Region in South Island. And some fresh, varying weather conditions.
Included an old, secluded track-and-bowl-system near the lighthouse.
The seal colony is well protected, but easy observable from a safe distance from the walking track. The closest town is Westport, and they have all necessary amenities from lodging to food, drinks and hiking equipment.

The signs point to places a long distance from this spot, like London 16 266 km, Sydney 1719 km and Zurich 16 093 km and local cities like Christchurch 190 km and Dunedin 397 km. The pole is solid fasten in a concrete flat area, with a walkway leading off to the right. The upper background is a lightly clouded blue sky.

"Once Donald Trump said there was nothing to see here, essentially, and once Tulsi Gabbard and John Ratcliffe said there was no sensitive information, no classified information, et cetera - we felt like, hm, we disagree," he said. "They're saying that, and we're the ones who have the texts, so maybe people should see them." Jeffrey Goldberg

"Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home..."

A sea lion and her pup. Taken with a proper, physical distance.
It is an early morning just after sunrise north of Dunedin, in Otago, South Island, Aotearoa/New Zealand.

Thanks to Adele for lyrics describing the scene.

Photo shows two fur seals, a grown up mother and a small pup. The mother is looking searchingly and warningly towards the photographer. The pup is looking curious in the same general direction. The seals are in shades of brown fur from light to dark, with some black and white details for the mother, and mostly darker brown for the pup. They both have very visible whiskers. They are on a light grey sandy beach, with a small rock the size of the mummy seal in the background.

#Demonstrators across 50 states look to unify a disparate opposition to #Trump and his sweeping agenda

by BILL BARROW, CHARLOTTE KRAMON and NADIA LATHAN
March 4, 2025

ATLANTA (AP) — "As Donald Trump prepared Tuesday to address a joint session of Congress, #protest groups gathered at parks, statehouses and other public grounds across the country to assail his presidency as #dangerous and #UnAmerican.

"The rallies and marches — set in motion by the fledgling #50501Movement, a volunteer-driven group organized in the weeks after Trump’s inauguration — mark the latest attempt at national resistance to the hardened support of Trump’s '#MakeAmericaGreatAgain' base and the success it has had in reshaping the Republican Party in the president’s populist image.

"Yet some early scenes Tuesday vividly demonstrated the difficulty Democrats, progressives and everyday citizens face in marshaling a tangible response to Trump and the swift, sweeping actions of his second administration. Protesters have so many things to push back against — from tariffs to Trump’s reset on the war in Ukraine to the aggressive and sometimes legally dubious actions of the Department of Government Efficiency and its leader, billionaire #Elon Musk, that it’s hard to know what to focus on." [THIS IS INTENTIONAL! #DivideAndConquer!]
