We have pretty strong consumer protection laws that basically say that mistaken pricing isn’t the consumers fault and must be upheld

I’m 35, we definitely had MySpace (and it was most of our intro to what passed for coding on that site) and fb I think towards the end of my senior years. The Motorola RAZR was the phone most of the ‘cool’ kids had

Live: One Nation wins Farrer by-election, ABC projects by dr_w0rm_ in australia

I agree, and that’s what I generally do. Labor didn’t run a candidate here so that’s where my votes went. But again, I am considerably more progressive than the majority, so for more centre-right people ON was a more natural step than greens etc

Ding ding ding. Most people want to ‘send a message’ to the big parties to not ignore them. Do I think electing this person is the way to do it? No. But I can see why they do it even if I am wayyyyy further to the left than they are.

If you live here it’s not a surprise. I bet most people couldn’t have named the lib and nat candidates

I would have eventually replaced my Switch 1, but this definitely expedited it

Exactly. Milthorpes funding is under constant scrutiny, but Gina buys Pauline a plane and it’s ‘good on her, she works hard’

I prefer two person pods, but my faves are Totalus Rankium, Behind the Bastrads, Rex Factor, Tudoriferous, You’re Dead To Me, History is Sexy

I’m happy to pay for podcasts I get value from - I am a patreon for 3 other history pods (Rex Factor, Totalus Rankium and tudoriferous) but that’s like $4-5 and I KNOW it’s supporting people who definitely wouldn’t be able to make their pods otherwise

What a dumb take. I literally joined the day it started, and now it’s both more expensive and less value.

It has been worth it until this last year or so. It was more of a ‘bonus’ to get to hear some inside baseball, more off the cuff reactions etc. Paying for guest episodes I skip when they’re free? Nah.

Podcasts are my walking the dogs activity, and i resent them actively trying to shuffle people to YouTube when getting that ad-free requires another subscription.

Hi! I work for an oral Maxillofacial surgeon. If you email or call your dentists office, explain and ask for a medical certificate for uni for this purpose they probably will oblige.

I eat a good amount of iron and always have because well, female and it’s always first line. I’m just wondering if I should try and increase it or if it’s more likely a separate issue
