The English-only NT parliament is undermining healthy democracy by excluding Aboriginal languages

"42% of NT residents speak a non-English language at home. Only half of eligible Aboriginal residents in the NT are enrolled to vote, and voter participation is even lower. Recognition – Rejecting someone’s language means rejecting their identity. Reconciliation is not just something parliamentarians should direct others to do, it’s something that needs to happen within parliament itself."

"The NT is a rich, multilingual society. How can the Legislative Assembly claim to fully represent the breadth of NT society when it chooses to be monolingual?"

#Wealth and #education to be a determinant factor in #crime and #incarceration statistics. Well, blow me down. /sarc/

Here is an endorsment for the ‘separation of powers’ enjoyed in this country in full display. The lecture delivered by the #NT judge speaking truth to power.

ABC News · Judge urges radical rethink of NT's growing crime and prison problemBy Laetitia Lemke

Good news story:

'A Central Australian football program that has changed lives with a tiny budget is set to receive an extraordinary $57 million donation from Brisbane-based construction magnates.

'The Redtails Pinktails Right Tracks Foundation, now a registered charity organisation after previously being known as Central Australian Football Club, had run for 14 years on the sniff of “an oily rag” until this donation, founder and president Rob Clarke said.

'The program aims to mentor and help marginalised young people in Alice Springs, Tennant Creek and remote communities gain employment and become community leaders, while also presenting a football pathway to play in the Northern Territory and South Australian leagues.'

Waste management on the 'wide open spaces'

Waste management on remote cattle stations in the Northern Territory:
"Discarded batteries, ancient rubber tyres and drums of oil are the kinds of waste sitting on Australia's remote cattle stations. We incinerate that, and otherwise we just dig a big hole and chuck everything in there and periodically burn it."

ABC News · Researcher studies how to recycle waste on remote cattle stationsBy Victoria Ellis
I just mastered Windows kernel debugging and learned how to dig globally all environment data from EPROCESS globally in the system using WinDbg :-)

It can side-effect free (except slowing down) to intervene process creation of NT kernel. I'll post the script as I test it more.

Victory in debugging after two weeks. Now I have at least proper weapons to nail the build issue in PolkaVM guest programs.

The most important skill to write e.g. Windows drivers for what is worth but also do global system tracing.

I tried all other methods but they all suck in some way.

As much I dislike Windows I have to admit that this brings me weird satisfaction ;-)
