The designation is particularly ridiculous considering it was the US that ran a campaign of terrorism against Cuba: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mongoose
I assume you mean the approvals, not the protestors
This would do the opposite of calming tensions…
I’m wondering where on earth he’s getting the “$70,000 loss” figure from. House prices in Sydney are not down from 2017…
Just put archive.is/
in front of the URL, e.g. https://archive.is/https://www.wsj.com/world/u-s-unimpressed-with-ukraines-victory-plan-ahead-of-biden-zelensky-meeting-23e87bff
Huh, weird. Possibly a problem with your Firefox install, or even an anti-virus thing apparently: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1444114
Huh, I didn’t think the Wayback Machine de-paywalled, cheers! (EDIT: Ah, I see now that SMH just has a free-articles limit.) I’ve changed the link to the Wayback snapshot since I prefer it when possible.
No security warning for the archive.is link for me, on Firefox or Chrome 🤷♀️ Was it flagged by an extension or something?
I only just noticed the location 😆 I’m glad nobody would have taken the test seriously
EDIT: Ok, so apparently it was just send to everyone in the bottom half of Australia, but at least it was clearly marked as a test - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-09-25/bom-tsunami-warning-alert-weather-queensland-nsw-vic-tas/104394044
Federal Labor Hunter MP and former coal miner Dan Repacholi said the government’s decision to approve the mine extensions was necessary to get renewable projects off the ground.
“Coal mining produces the power, produces the steel, to make these renewable projects actually happen,” he said.
“Without coal, they will never ever happen.”
What a load of bullshit.
The headline on the article page is (currently) “Boy, 16, fatally stabbed at shopping centre in Melbourne’s west”, so I don’t know why the share-preview headline has ‘allegedly’
I think it’s a meme in itself to use it incorrectly, now
Unlike GURPS though, they probably didn’t have their offices raided by the FBI because the jackbooted thugs were too stupid to understand the difference between fiction and real life.
lol, I’d never heard about this: https://www.sjgames.com/gurps/Roleplayer/Roleplayer19/Raid.html
The agents who raided our office grumbled loudly in my presence about the “manual for computer crime” that we were publishing, but (aside from holding our hardware and text files) they have taken no further action against the book.
Penny Wong: “deeply concerned”
👏👏👏
A cooperative is one way to start on that: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-10/supermarket-alternative-co-ops-save-money/104078660
Profits have increased as a percentage of revenue (i.e. profit margins have increased).
If it was simple and clear, only the lowest rate would get any business.
The big 4 banks don’t want that either, though.
I don’t believe the big banks are “infuriated”. The current situation is no doubt the best situation it’s possible for them to effect. They could, as you point out, change their own processes, and they’ve got a lot of market power they could use to change other things as well. But they haven’t.
Yeah, I don’t think they’re onto a winner with this one. I could be wrong, though. People are hurting with interest rates where they are.
Maybe this should be interpreted as simply sending a message that the Greens know the pain mortgage-payers are feeling. Staking such an unorthodox position means that it grabs headlines and that message reaches people.
