If you drive a car model post-2015 and have Bluetoothed your portable device to the digital display for geolocation, if you have a portable device at all, if you've hooked up a 'smart' tv etc, and don't have the digital smarts, or convenience rules, to disconnect the relevant 'services', then...

Here's another tip to protect your privacy - and your wallet. Unplug the tv when not in use. It's listening to you (maybe even videoing you) and feeding the info to makers who sell/pass it on to who knows where. But mainly, if you have a medium to large screen by today's standards, unplugging...

Good on ya, DAMSHEG. The Hunter Valley has the worst respiratory issues in the country, among a no. of other mining related pollution issues. Health is more important than money. Bet the bloody L&E court overturn it though.

Didn't really notice the change. I use a basket whenever possible anyway. Sounds like good recycling though. They will burn though.

Assist not replace. Bollocks! It's clear by retail operators replies, that's not that they're dreaming of. Also the expense is never mentioned. It strikes me vandalism would also be a serious consideration irresistible to some.

Water meter, not metre.

Can we PLEASE not continue the US misuse of the word 'careening'. It means to scrape detritus (barnacles etc) of a boat's hull. 'Careering' is the correct term.

Sounds like a great opportunity for AU to further build its film-making cred and grown-up industry by slapping 100% on States-made productions, at the same time as reducing the USA's damaging cultural hegemony. Put that back into local production and it should easily pay for possible losses...

This is all pretty silly - but the wider echoes are funny and interesting. For those above who didn't bother to read the article or even look at the TikTok image (a social media aggregator recently taken over by MAGA in the USA), the SUBWAY employee was a woman, not a man, she did use the c word...

Is this a repeat or the 2nd time Layla Subritzky has 'spoken out'. To make new friends in a new place, you have to take part, and it takes awhile. She's not worth repeating. 15 months in WA and we have a host of new friends and welcoming acquaintances.

Nothing in this article addresses, let alone attempts to explain or even simply cover Hanson's racism, xenophobia, victimising and manipulation of the disenfranchised, warmongering, privatisation pushing, union bashing, anti-environmental stance and general divisiveness, and slavish support for...

Trump's war on the world, including Americans.

And if the power supply is out, say in a bushfire or flood, and the mobile tracking device is flat (my partner's often is)? Bloody idiots! I'm so sick of mobile devices being crammed full of everything, and no alternative access. They are THE most vulnerable part of the network re crime.

That's Oxycodone and it's extremely addictive.

It's time AU applied to join BRICS and left the monetary and military rule of the world's greatest warmongers.
