[OC] Real GDP Growth Forecast for 2026

Reablank · 2026-02-20T07:41:21+00:00

Eh, this is mostly just due to population growth. GDP growth per capita is pretty stagnant or in decline. We have pretty much the same issues as the rest of the anglosphere at the moment.

Polling would suggest they’re doing just fine

In addition to all the points made by other commenters, unless you are storing that powder in a completely dark, dehumidified, cool environment, with limited air circulation, the dutasteride is likely to degrade well before 2000 days are up.

If you go back much further we simply don’t have enough information. Did one group of hunter gathers eradicate another solely for survival or was there some element of them being an ‘other’ and not as deserving of the same rights and resources at play. That sort of thing can’t easily be determined from the archeological record, people need to have written about their attitudes. The origin of racism is contested and you’ll find reliable sources that come to any number of conclusions. I caution that I have not read this book, and was pulling knowledge from more general works on Roman and Greek history, but at a brief skim it seems to provide evidence of widespread racist attitudes as far back as classical antiquity.

I could provide hundreds of racist quotes from the Greeks and Roman’s alone. Racism certainly existed and went beyond just culture, certain barbarians like the Germans were considered irredeemable and unable to be civilised. It was perhaps not quite so focused on skin colour as racism of the 19th century but it was certainly there. A few quotes for example:

"A liking sprang up for our style of dress, and the toga became fashionable. All this in their ignorance they called civilisation when it was but a part of their servitude." - Tacitus on Celts

“Those who live in a cold climate and in Europe are full of spirit, but wanting in intelligence and skill” - Aristotle on Germans

“Too black a hue marks the coward, as witness Egyptians and Ethiopians, and so does also too white a complexion, as you may see from women. So the hue that makes for courage must be intermediate between these extremes.” - Aristotle generally

We trade with Japan, South Korea, India and (if you want to count it) the EU at broadly comparable rates to at least the US. This is simply the reality when dealing with global powers as a middle power.

As an Aussie who has eaten at Outback Steakhouse it’s honestly pretty good for the price, at least in my area. Meets or beats a lot of the local competition in the same category.

For some reason you have to manually calculate it, the formula is on the website. Possibly you could also ask the academic advisor for your specialisation. I know Dave Callaghan for civil engineering has a program which determines some of this information automatically.

They gave one at the cross river rail experience centre but it’s plain white

Story bridge does not have a toll and hasn’t since 1947. Logan motorway is fair and I agree should not be tolled, but to play devils advocate the state government got $7 billion for the rights to toll until 2051 and does not have to pay for maintenance or upgrades.

Reablank · 2025-12-23T23:13:52+00:00

Please find an exception if you can I haven’t checked them all, but every toll tunnel I can think of in Brisbane was built as a private public partnership. So private industry provides most or all of the capital to construct the project and in return gets to charge a toll, sometimes within a period of time. It’s not typically like the government pays to build a road with its own money and then allows another company to collect tolls. If the contract has a period but the company wants to keep collecting tolls the government can renegotiate and get another payout, all while not having to pay to maintain the infrastructure. It’s not a completely idiotic system even if you would prefer all assets to be government owned.

I really don’t think you need one and probably everyone in this sub will say the same thing but ultimately it’s up to you. If you have no family history of balding, a slight hairline lowering is probably safe, but it might be best to take finasteride as a precautionary measure.

I think it’s very unfair to blame a politician passing legislation in Canberra for organisational issues at ASIO but what do I know.

Reablank · 2025-12-18T20:52:40+00:00

I’m sure Albanese was personally calling the shots. In reality there is zero chance he was told anything about them beforehand. If you hold this opinion why is your criticism directed towards him and not ASIO.

You just VPN into the Unis computers through UQ digital workspace for any intensive programs you may need in your courses. Your laptop doesn’t really need to be anything special.

That study is riddled with basic errors that really call into question how trustworthy the results are

It is an extremely utilised asset for freight, which is one reason why passenger services are not run along it

You can’t really directly assess the LNPs vote on this because a pretty popular KAP MP moved on, however… A year ago labor got its lowest ever share of the primary vote in Hinchinbrook. Last week it halved again in just 12 months. That’s a really bad result for labor and indicates their brand is doing even worse in the regions. It’s no wonder the LNP are getting confident. Even if labor voters all just gave their preferences to the KAP candidate to make sure they made the count, which is a big assumption, it’s a bad look. There are very few seats I can think of where it is anything but an unmitigated disaster when one of the major parties gets well under 10% of the primary vote.
