Which is funny, because those firms also bent the knee.

In Australia, covid vaccinations are available for free. Recommendations are here: www.health.gov.au/our-work/cov... I got my most recent one (along with the flu shot) last weekend. I went into a pharmacy, no appointment necessary - it took literally 3 minutes.

Welp. That's horrifying.

Ah, yeah, sorry. My fault for being flippant about sick people showing up to work. It's a pet peeve. I should have been clear. And to your point about police. In a better world, they'd have their name and badge number on their front and back so they'd be identifiable regardless.

That's why RATs are a thing.

A cop who's covid positive shouldn't be at work.

Good work explaining "seven" in language the ladies will understand.

Erm, not that KAP aren't occasionally racist, but more from being in their non-diverse bubble than specific ideology.

Bob Katter's party, mostly just him being a bit mad. Staunchly anti-crocodile. If you want Nazis, you're better off looking in Melbourne or Sydney.

Let's not be hasty - has anyone asked his option on accrual revenue reporting vis-a-vis BAS lodging?
comment in response to post
Yeah, but if you're an orginalist, "the people" is just the 39 dudes who signed it.

Tell the Victorians it's not NSW. Tell NSW it's not Victoria. Tell the Queenslanders it's not Caboolture. That covers everyone of note.

justwatch.com might work for you. You can make and share lists and it tells you on which service the show is. Apparently there's public lists, but they're "not available" in my country (Australia).

That's very cool

Bookmarks->Boomark all Tabs. Import bookmarks from Chrome. Open all as tabs. Or maybe just shift-command-w and embrace the void.

Nice! I've only been in my house for 9 years, so I still have a few boxes left.

Yeah, but back then, there was no css and only <html> and <blink> tags.

OCI/OKE is pretty dang good. Their free tier includes quite a bit, and the pricing structure is easy to understand (and waaay cheaper than AWS). (Not affiliated, just a fan)

Surprisingly, no - it was the actual at the time Australian PM

I think a Keith Urban has the flaps. This is a Sean Beanie

My wife once flattened the Prime Minister.

No, but, largely unclear. Article says so. There's no way to know his thoughts or ideology. It's all unknowable. He will remain forever an enigma, with no mechanism to express himself.
comment in response to post
Apparently, they do it when they they're feeling contented, but it's hard not to take it personally when my wife and I exchange a "love you" and there's an immediate loud sigh in the background.

I have 100 problems. Having more than 99 is one of them.

With a record unmarred by success, one wonders exactly what response raising the spectre of "Trump's attorney" is meant to elicit.

Because if you like cats, yay cats! And if you don't, well, they KNOW.

I don't recommend storing any car under water, no matter how cautious you're being.

Also, hydrogen fueled cars don't burn the hydrogen, they generate electricity from electrons stripped off the hydrogen. The practical distinction being that they have a fuel cell, instead of a battery, but otherwise are the same as an EV - there's no similarity to an ICE engine
comment in response to post
Incorrect. EV fires are 10 to 80 times less likely (depending on various factors) than with ICE vehicles. www.forbes.com/sites/neilwi...

Oh, wow. Admittedly, that took me a second. I'm guessing both targets of the message got it loud and clear, though.
comment in response to post
I guess I'm just saying that it's worth being careful, even when making a point in the narrow scope of a specific case.
comment in response to post
I agree with all of the above, and for me, the story is the standards journalists should be held to. But also, it's worth keeping in mind that, invariably, it is the woman who gets the brunt of the negative commentary when inappropriate relationships are discussed.
