  1. https://au.finance.yahoo.com/news/cash-protest-to-drain-atms-in-defiant-act-against-controversial-trend-use-it-or-lose-it-055904090.html
  2. Add mudslinging and lying, like all other elections.
  3. Cricketer Keith Stackpole has died aged 84, from a suspected heart attack.
  4. That's a flat earthers idea of the earth. Look at the distance between east Russia and Alaska.
  5. It's a matter of self control. Sometimes only a credit card will do, then you pay it off straight away. For example, the pay stations at parking stations such as shopping centres, hospitals and airports do not accept debit cards. My credit cards (two of them) both have small credit balances, less than ten dollars. It's rare that I buy stuff online, and don't have a paypal account. Recently I bought some hearing amplifiers, like in-ear hearing aids, from the US. True hearing aids cost a few hundred, some local ones, advertised on TV, cost $240 or more. Mine cost A$159 and are working fine - better than the hearing aids I got from the audiologists. Paid it off immediately, no interest.
  6. From what I understand, but I'm ready to be corrected if I'm wrong, you download an ap to your smartphone. You register your bank account on the ap. Then, you plug the car into the charger, use the ap to start and stop charging, and the ap debits your nominated account by direct debit. There are a couple of providers, so you would need an ap for each one, because you don't know which one will be where you need to recharge. Just like having a Macca's ap and a KFC ap for tap n go. It's getting a bit much for us old farts.
  7. Or moronic Biden.
  8. This is a series of screenprints of the map on the EV Charging Stations website, zooming in from Australia wide, to Victoria, to Melbourne and right down to one station. Australia wide stations Victorian stations Melbourne stations Eastern suburbs stations The station at Canterbury Rd , Vermont and Gippsland. Map Legend. Selecting a station, click on the marker and an info panel with hours of operation adapter type, phone number and sometimes price will open
  9. While other leaders wrote long epitaphs to the Pope on his passing, Trump posted on Truth Social - Like launching a ship.
  10. I know Nev doesn't like the Daily Mail, but here is a report of that meeting. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14631273/Pope-Franciss-final-meeting-Awkward-moment-JD-Vance-condemning-Trump-administrations-treatment-migrants-pontiffs-public-encounter.html?ito=social-facebook
  11. Poor guy. One of the last people he saw was J.D.Vance.
  12. It's hard to determine how many charging stations there are in Australia. There are websits and count tables, but they do not show when the tables were created. The web page may have an update date, but no indication as to what was changed. The table I found just now is below. There are maps on the web which you can zoom into to find charging stations near you or your journey and destination.
  13. I went to the chemist (Chemist Warehouse) with a repeat prescription authorisation (the yellow one) showing a issue date of 09/06/24, so still current, and number of repeats left, 5. They refused to fill the repeat because it did not have the original prescription (blue) attached.
  14. I was watching an old episode of QI with Stephen Fry on Foxtel today. They are all very old episodes. The topic revolved around genitalia etc. One of the information gems Stephen revealed was that if you equate a single sperm to a single bit in a data stream, the average male ejaculation (if there is such a thing), contains the equivalent of 57.4 terrabytes. To show how old these episodes are, episodes on the daily timeslot are hosted by Sandi Toksvig who took over from Stephen.. Last night's episode had Jerry Springer as a guest panelist. He died in April 2023.
  15. You did see the street sign on the left didn't you?
