The detail is "where do they park?" The answer is they don't. (aussie.zone)

Shared on Facebook with the caption "Doing absolutely no favours to their international reputation, Americans have swarmed social media posts of Taylor Swift’s Melbourne concerts confused by a very obvious detail. Can you spot it?"

It's an article from the Murdoch right-wing paper "The Australian", so I won't link the original source.

Transcription:

Aerial photo of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, surrounded to its North and East by tree-filled parks, to the West by a warm-up pitch, and to the South by a train line with two pedestrian overpasses over it. Underneath this photo is the article title "The MCG show detail that has American Swifties baffled" and byline "by Sam McPhee".

This is my particular argument for the need for EULA and ToS law reforms. The concept that they are negotiable for consumers by means of abstinence is laughably outdated. It is unavoidable to have to sign a contract that you have no negotiation recourse over. All contracts are supposed to be negotiable before signing. There are so many abuses and frankly absurd liberties taken in those things that nobody should ever have to agree to just to play a game or use a website.

Seriously, a game publisher/developer having defacto ownership over the code you produce to make a mod for a game is ludicrous. Or a social media site getting the rights to use content for any purpose without limits and in perpetuity is insane.
