Worse still is the pronunciation of “bologna”. How. Just how. None of you seppos have the right to tell me about how I pronounce “herbs” or “pecans”. Then again, our pronunciation of “lieutenant” is messed up.

Ok, surely this is a violation of the first amendment. This is clearly the government restricting speech. Wait, nope. It’s the government ensuring its employees don’t promote speech it doesn’t like. Fuck.
I’m always kinda impressed when people can fill silence with a lot of words without actually managing to say anything.
Wait wait wait what? This sounds interesting. Please elaborate
Seriously, it’s 2024. Everyone has to use technology now, so the software should reflect that. UX is probably one of the big barriers to widespread FOSS adoption.
As someone who used LaTeX in secondary school, this is definitely not applicable advice to everyone. Great if you’re doing maths or other technical subjects, but superfluous if you’re doing anything else. Doubly so for someone who isn’t a great typist.
Development approval, required by a council before you build something
Fun fact: you don’t need a DA for these*, so they are a hell of a lot cheaper to install. *Subject to jurisdiction
I know a guy like this. He’s a great guy, very competent, gives up his time for his community. Drives his Audi like a cunt though.
I’ve seen a lot of reporting on finding microplastics in new places and new quantities, but is there reliable evidence that it actually does damage? Genuinely asking, can someone please send me the papers?
I’d say AM radio is a better safety feature for Australians at least, since the ABC broadcast emergency warnings via their AM stations.
Now there’s a kind of open relationship I can get behind!
Sorry, I heard asbestos was toxic
Lemmy is like Reddit, but with an even greater concentration of Linux and FOSS nerds, so the likelihood is extremely low.
In Australia we have state based policing and the police live where they work. We have local police stations but the money and equipment come from state taxes. And our states are bigger than yours, WA is almost 1,000,000 km² larger than Alaska, and most of our states have much lower populations and population densities than yours. It can work, which is why I asked.
It still amazes me that your public safety agencies (police, fire and ambulance) are city based, not state based. Is there a compelling reason for that?
It’s rare and valuable and necessary, that’s why we should only be allowed one.
The Yes campaign did a shit job of publicising it though. I’ve consistently heard that people were told to educate themselves which is generally a bad way of getting someone to agree with you when the opposition is all to happy to fill in the gaps with disinformation. The fact that we are still telling people why the wording was vague should be enough to tell you that the Yes campaign failed.
Them wanting to live on their ancestral lands to which they have a deep cultural and spiritual connection isn’t “wanting to live more primitively”. Because Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples often live in remote communities they do not have anything like the educational or employment opportunities that most of the country get.
Spot on!
