I didn’t read it that way. Sounds like for whatever reason the RMIT partnership is ending but ABC is going to carry on with it on their own.

This is probably a bad development. RMIT gave the work an extra sense of rigour and independence. It meant liberals and nationals, and conservatives in general couldn’t dismiss their work as just more ABC lefty commie wokeratti greenie stuff, as so many of those people reflexively do now.

The ABC should immediately start looking for a new partner of similar calibre in this ongoing endeavour.

But what is America without US? /s

I’d rather chill in the spirit world. Maybe spend a few years lost in the fog of lost souls, go hang with Hei Bai, attack some rando’s cause someones been breakin trees, end most nights catching up on some reading at Wan Shi’s library. I’d avoid the face stealer, cause that ones a dick! Probably drop in on Iroh once in a while for an injection of wisdom in my life.

Spirit world is where its at.

Labors maybe attempting to placate the baroney baron so she doesn’t do her plutocrat thing and pump more money into the “Nuclear in a decade or two” campaign she has her lackey Dutton running around the country bleeting about.

It won’t work… plutocrats gona plutocrat until their power is broken.

• Ah Plastics is such a devil of an issue isnt it. It was so dissapointing when the red cycle scheme went tits up.

Though, i can’t believe there wasn’t a massive backlash against woolworths and coles for allowing red cycle to fail, it was their wild card out of the plastic waste negative publicity they suffer.

• But there are thousands of types of plastics used by all kinds of companies with such little transparency/rationalisation that the plastic types can really only be boiled down to 7 broad buckets.

• There are no market or government incentives i know about to choose recycled plastic over virgin for all categories but to charge an ecological premium for a companies product.

• And thats only to consider some of the problems with so much plastic use. To even consider, a reasonable reducing, reusing, recycling plan for plastics we have to consider the costs this will entail to all the medical gear, electrical gear, cars, and everything else we successfully use plastic for.

• The one great thing though, is plastic is supposedly a byproduct of the oil industry. So if the economies of scale start shifting away from oil production, we might finally begin to see a true reflection of the cost of plastic, not one artificially low because oil as a fuel is the flagship product.

I’m not a proponent of nuclear energy, especially not for Australia, but we need a better whole of system waste management design, inclusive of radioactive waste materials.

Be it from the boats we’re deciding to build, the unresolved temporary on site waste storage at Lucas Heights, or a possible future refining rare earth elements.

Right now all the different levels of government seem to do is farm their waste problems out to contractors when the waste disposal becomes complicated. And these conpanies like Visy don’t seem to invest in much apart from the odd MIRV here and there and stick it in the ground.

Australia has got to be among the most wasteful societies on our planet, (per capita), but we also must have among the best abilities to deal with this problem.

First problem is, its not even on our radar as an issue that holds back our development as a country that does anything else but digging stuff out the ground.

Just listened to this,

Its inspired me to see the impact our half hearted attempts at waste management are possibly having on the strength and diveraity of the nation’s industry.

Maybe its supposed to be, “Out with the teapot in with the mug”?

Been a bit partial to vanilla icecream with one of those mini nonnas apple pies lately. If i’m feeling adventurous, a bit a custard to.

The sitting areas nice and airy though

Well then. I take it this the official ideas portal.

I vote they put a lemmy helicopter pad there, for bicycle tricks to be preformed on, with a bee hotel on the edge.

Whats going in there instead?

True. I’s thinking of the branding

Now, now, you shouldn’t let the print media off so lightly.

Theres something so beautiful about these old stations. I think i’d rather they just restore it, rather than putting that weird roof cover over the top though.

The car industry execs should be laughing their heads off at naive bank execs assuming they know more about it than the car execs. Don’t they think the car execs already know what the risk and competitive nature of their own business.

Guess what bankers, this is how you produce positive growth in a real productive industry, and its risky business. Instead the bankers prescription assumes managed decline.

It’s like that new guy at work who constantly tells everyone about ‘hacks’ only they’ve discovered, when everybody already knows about them.

Whats the link?

Glad to see someone has mentioned this. Huge gains in time in the day for a huge part of the population.

Everytime i go for a walk i see something new that i haven’t noticed before.

Doing what to casual observater seems like the same thing over and over again, can actually be the process of developing a deeper understanding of the subject area than before, (in this case your local neighbourhood).

This helps in an unexpected way. I’ve been low level questioning why Marcos has received such a quiet western media response upon his families return to power.

It seemed out of step with, you know, the US sphere’s “values” statement. This article got me a little further in understanding the US relationship with Duterte leading up to the event.

I’d have thought SA is less dry than the Mojave, but i guess i should remember that walking around Fallout New Vegas wasteland Mojave might not be the same as the real thing.
