Looking south along the Brindabellas at Mt Coree: https://aussie.zone/post/2470343

The Tent Embassy has had a big banner out the front for months telling people to vote no, I guess someone should pop over and inform them they need to truly consider how they are racist…

Probably you mean “before I was voting age” rather than “before I was born”. The last referendum wasn’t that long ago

I mean I too feel the 90s weren’t that long ago, but it has been long enough that I wouldn’t assume they misspoke on that one. After all someone born when that referendum happened would turn 24 this November, so there’s a good number of people old enough to vote in this referendum who weren’t around in '99.

Yes,that was a concerning scenario - all it’d take is changing the radio station or something interesting on the side of the road and you’d likely not have enough time left to swerve.

Rider was very lucky in that last clip, few cm over and it would have got their leg/foot.

NSW already does this and it doesn’t seem to have reduced the rise of larger vehicles, though admittedly the price difference isn’t massive for most cars (e.g. a Camry would fall into the $330 category while a Hilux would be $505).

Better be quick, I hear you have to deal with that sort of problem within 3-5 minutes…

Seems like people should stop spending effort on finding a good walking stick mid walk and instead just look around at the start of the track for one that was good enough for someone else to bring all the way back…

I’d be happy to reduce the amount of times I have to deal with providing multiple forms of ID, particularly the insanity of having to get copies certified for places that then expect you to email a image of said copies (therefore defeating the whole point of a certified copy).

I am dubious that a digital ID will actually end up making things easier though, I give it pretty good odds that it’ll just be an additional hoop to jump through. I also have reservations about what happens when the digital IDs are compromised, because that’ll happen at some point no matter how secure the system is claimed to be.

Edit: Relevant XKCD

I would certainly have appreciated that last month - did a ~1000k run up the coast (and back a couple of weeks later) with the vast majority of that on dual carriageway highways that could have been driven at much higher speeds without compromising safety. As it was I just stuck at a true 115 most of the way, but shaving a couple of hours off that trip would have been nice.

It took an unfortunately long time (until I clicked through to the article) for me to realise it wasn’t a real snake under discussion here…

It certainly seems like there has been less snow days and higher minimum snow altitudes this winter around the ACT.

No Gang Gang cockatoo? Not happy Jan!

Luckily though my backup option of the Black Cockatoo is still in the running.

I’ve seen most of these before in their regular videos, but I still got a laugh about the idea of Nick getting that message around 1:10 in the video.

I gather from various posts that have been popping up on my kbin front page that lemmy.world has been having stability issues recently (due to huge numbers of users, malicious actions like DDOS attacks, etc) so I wouldn’t expect communication with it to be running smoothly.

I was prepared to be annoyed if the Gang Gang wasn’t in the list, but luckily the superior rusty gargling noise is in fact present.

What animals do they hope to kill?

Non native pest species such as feral dogs/cats, foxes, wild pigs, and rabbits.

I’ve walked around the old mine site there, the bare earth and orange and green colouring is certainly different - really not a place you want to drink the water.

It doesn’t affect me directly since I live well away from Brisbane, but not building a track is disappointing. Anyone interested in cars or bikes is forever getting told they should take them to the track instead of daring to use any real percentage of their capabilities on public roads, but tracks are dwindling across Australia and very few are being built. Next to an airport seems a pretty good place to build one as you’re colocating a noisy development with an existing noisy location - hopefully reducing the multitudes of future noise complaints you risk trying to build a track anywhere near where people may build housing in the next few decades.

The QLD ones are bit thinner, darker, and less chewy than the NSW ones. They’re still hard but it’s a more brittle sort of hard (and they fall apart faster if you dip them into coffee).
