One of my first experiences on Melbourne’s public transport, so getting on a tram with money for a Metcard. Once on the tram, I tried to use the machine but it didn’t take notes. A pair of authorised officers were watching, and then proceeded to fine me, saying there is a sign on the door saying ‘coins only’.

Ukraine doesn’t even have a navy. They are more likely to hit civilian crafts.

USB-A to USB-A cables do exist.

I have seen many (very cheap) peripherals use USB-A sockets. I figure those sockets must be a few cents cheaper than alternatives.

Murdoch political media machine started in Australia, but found its home in America.

Because of mandatory voting laws, Australia has voted out the right wing Murdoch endorsed party in every Australian state and federal government (except one, and that state government looks set to be thrown out soon too).

This “former Australian ambassador” is pretending his party is still relevant, maybe it is in America.

We will likely never find out what Trump said to Putin in Helsinki.

It’s clear that Trump wouldn’t pass the security vetting process. But it is a national security failure that as president he didn’t need to.

He always was a full-time legal defendant. I’ll leave this here…

It was developed by Id Software back in 1991, a 2D platformer for the PC. Bethesda likely has the distribution rights to this game, no idea who Diplodocus Games is.

The basic platforms are more successful. They are faster and less user hostile.
