Current RBA structure is proving inadequate at identifying profiteering by certain business sectors, where a small choice of service providers (duopolies or in some cases, even monopolies) offer consumers in Australia little choice but to continue to accept higher prices/fees. There are some extremely poor conclusions drawn if the article is accurately summarising the position of the RBA.

Agreed… full article. We can skim read and choose what time we save.

I think even Danny Ric is trying to get his balance (or maybe the perception of his focus) right these days … getting his energy focused firmly on the job.

I like the honesty in that interview. Gives direct answers to direct questions about the track, the show, his impact on decisions etc. Worth the read.

My entire post was satirical.

So they’ve made no progress in making Siri decent with years of massive resourcing available to them. In that time they’ve at least given us -

Usb-C across the product range.

Reduced consumer pricing outcomes through economies of scale advantages.

Agile solutions to fit modern consumer requirements with a major overhaul of base RAM and cloud storage.

Worry free computing with no keyboard issues.

High end headphones with no rust issues

Industry leading battery life on their watch range combined with style advantages the competition can only dream of.

iPads that now function as a true 2 in 1 device, using M series chips to their full potential. This alone has revolutionised the tech industry.

The ultimate all in one gaming and productivity machines, creating a major shift to Apple as the leading choice for both lifestyle and business.

Ethical nirvana. No compromise solutions for the entire supply and distribution chain, ensuring …

…sorry, realised this list was going to keep going for so long you would all need to upgrade your devices before I completed it.

Thanks Apple.

I miss old Tumblr. It was so easy to find great blogs to follow and find the content and vibe you were after. A piece of escapism to the world where you wanted to live.

From the article … the “artistic, supportive part of Tumblr is one of the best places on the Internet.” … is well said.

Fair point here > “Okay, it’s two of us today, but if 15 cars had damage and had to do what we did, are they going to start a race with 15 cars a lap down? I don’t think so. So I think they need to be a bit more open-minded. So that was frustrating.”

Understandable. They’re barely scraping by as a company. Luckily there are no cost of living pressures on us all as consumers, so we’re happy to support excess profiteering.

I hope everyone has some great suggestions here. I read a few articles on ‘best interactive widgets’ that all seemed to be for apps I don’t use and/or would not consider because of permissions. I thought Apple would be all over this with their own apps, but not as yet it seems.

10.5% over 3 years … 6% inflation … not even close to good enough

I am so in love with this. What an amazing gift this app is in a world of corporations and data harvesting. If ever there’s a project that deserves our huge support, it’s this one.

Most entertaining dry quali for a good while. Looking forward to the race now.
