It’s definitely an old operating system issue - not on the latest.

I did not get anything :( feel left out :(((
9·10 months agoI like the way you phrased it as - all the elected members got to vote, but not the unelected ones for obvious reasons.
Reminds me of the story about returning planes and bullet holes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias
I agree with WhatAmLenny. It might use the same data source but the way information is presented is a lot more usable. Case in point - when it’s going to rain, it gives you a pretty accurate “rain is going to start in x minutes” and a graph of how heavy it will be.
It’s not just about the raw data but how people consume it.
5·11 months agoHaha this was good fun.
They reel out of the sky at you like they’re barrelling out of a nightclub bathroom wearing a floral shirt open to the navel, beaks atwitch, roaring a garbled query that sounds disturbingly like: “What did you just say to me?”

This is about the third time a story like this has popped up. I wonder if it’s the same girl or separate stories.
Can you go camping in your local park instead of renting? Landlords hate this one trick!
There’s a good explainer article here: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/mar/22/us-pharma-trump-australia-pbs-explainer
It all came up in the tariff negotiations - the PBS in Australia means US drug companies don’t make enough money and/or US citizens are paying more for drugs than Australians.
Big pharma in the US claims Australians aren’t paying enough for medicines, considering the billions they pour into research and development, and there are too many delays in getting drug approvals.
PhRMA has asked the Trump administration to put Australia on a “watch list” and wants it to push for change, saying Australia has set the bar too high on cost effectiveness. Australia’s price reductions and “restrictive subsidy caps” meant prices were too low to support investment in innovation, it claims. There are also too many delays in approval processes, it says, adding that the PBS continues to list generic products without the patent owner’s consent.
4·1 year agoIt was a great hottest 100 - probably my favourite so far. Loved the spread across the decades.
I was just reading a science fiction novel where algal blooms are one of the things that precede the societal collapse. Fun times. The book was called Timescape.
Best of luck to him! Hope this goes far and wide.
2·1 year ago2nd putting money aside for fun experiences. Doesn’t have to be much but saving for a house is a long, arduous, sometimes soul sucking process. It’s good to have those experiences first.
Was just thinking… you know how like some ludicrous % of insect species have died out, maybe it’s bacteria as well. So maybe our gut biomes are deficient in strains that used to be abundant. 🧐
Yeah ham when I grew up was the processed stuff formed into logs. Devon? Lovely on a sandwich with tomato sauce but I have no idea what was in it!
Good choice. She’s always come across as calm and level headed. Hopeful they can do some good climate relevant negotiations with Labor.
I think anyone not knee deep in the Greens membership would prefer Larissa Waters.
Even if wages rise, we’re still leaving everyone on Jobseeker or DSP behind.
