Well, you can safely store it with trusted allies….

All while those in power seek more power. Fighting back as a rep becomes harder, not easier when the rule of law is ignored.

I don’t know. They are behind and losing out to teals. Ow they are against tax cuts and labour look like they will manage the budget better. It’s a bad look for them. All they have left is racism and one nation will outflank them on that.

It, of course affects pricing. If they pay $5 to apple, you pay $5 more. It’s just like Trump’s tariffs. The end user pays. Sure, the market encourages keeping prices down to attract customers, but if everyone pays a toll, you can’t compete below that.

Now the companies can. Just like you don’t care about companies paying each other, companies don’t care where they can cut costs. Making their product cheaper, and therefore more attractive to increase sales is good for them. In this case it just happens to be good for consumers too. They may not pass on that hypothetical $5 but if they pass on $4, we’re still better off. Apple is worse off.

I wonder how long before services are targeted for tariffs in response to Trump. It may be that prices for apps and games go back up immediately.

Wasn’t ark a free game before? Balatro will be a boon for many. It’s great. I’ve only played on mobile, so I’m looking forward to seeing how it differs on a different play format.

I’m glad they used up political capital that hasn’t directly done damage and now allows her to take the position without as much resistance, most likely. I’m sure they will still try to go against her, but it will be all the harder when articles like this allude to a non progressive agenda in the old establishment within the party.

I don’t trust USA numbers any more. I have never trusted china’s, it over the last 40 years, if they were consistently fudged, that would be clear in hindsight.

Being able to circumvent their measures doesn’t mean they aren’t actively trying to increase harms for residents.

You could tell the candidate your concern and they could say that negotiations have failed to the recruiter, as could you and then you both are pulling out.

Yehn just tell the recruiter that they were impressive in interview but seemed not suitable in the role.

Yes, as the libs (named for monetary policy not social policy, so conservative) shifted right, labor has too. They have also adopted a lot of the same policies, so as not to be wedged. However abandoning their position on key human rights issues makes them unpalatable to many on the left.

It’s decidedly odd that the policies that are their downfall are the ones that are copies of Trump’s. Anf going on polling, the poicies that seems to be tripping up Trump on immigration are the same as those adopted by both parties here. While the tariffs are awful policy for America, they don’t affect Australia as much as other countries, yet they get all the headlines.

I hope that other countries starting to lean right get a rude awakening from how these populist policies play out. Cutting jobs for government efficiency doesn’t work if you just slash left and right.

Well, Putin was worried their mercenaries might. Then the leader blinked and is now dead.

So your middle ground is to not give passports to trans people that allows them safe passage. Literally, what passports were designed to do.

If their passport doesn’t match their appearance, would that be safe for travel in less welcoming countries? Would it allow them to travel at all, if it didn’t match their presentation? Isn’t that the whole point of a passport? There is no reason for this kind of legal ruling apart from offering a way for bigots to practice bigotry. Nobody will be safer, but trans people will be more at risk.

Yes, they kowtowed to Nazis. Or, chose Nazis over inclusion.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

I thought you meant we as a nation. This is in reaction to boos at welcome to country at Anzac day events in Melbourne, so it now has more relevance. Deciding to not have them is different to cancelling it on the day after rehearsals and preparation, purely to appease the worst in our society. By minimising it, you are playing into making it political, the very reason some government for not having welcome to country.

Not to mention, they will lose out on international customers due to boycotts and reciprocal (in the actual true meaning) tariffs.

You mean when we voted no on the voice, essentially cancelling entire communities?

I know a lot of people aren’t in favour of welcome to country, but, a lot are. It’s a symbolic gesture that respects indigenous culture in particular and Australian heritage at large.

Many would not miss it, I’m sure, but specifically excluding people on the day is terrible and kowtowing to literal Nazis. It’s cowardly and shameful.

Except that the technology has improved and now Sonarr and radarr take all effort out of the equation.
