Randy Pitchford, CEO of Gearbox Software (known for Borderlands among others), once left behind a USB drive containing porno at a mediaeval dinner theatre.
The film is understood to contain exotic squirt porn and features one maneuver Mr Pitchford likened to a “magic trick”, apparently warranting it’s further study.

Biscoff is not good enough to merit a collab with literally every food brand in existence. They must be spending an absolute fortune.

Same with more social situations. “Hey, are you free on the 19th?” FREE FOR WHAT, DEBORAH?

I was thinking this last night. Do they keep it super simple and palatable? Lots of countries and palates to represent … not sure if they get a ham and cheese sandwich and a juice box for lunch?

I literally cannot imagine being such a dweeb that I’d settle on that as a career choice.

You bring a “that should’ve been sent to a private group chat” vibe to the DT which I really respect.

You’re right, I’d better ask if they think it’s cooties and how long I have left to live.

I’ve been dealing with hot flushes for a few months now (not typical for a bloke obviously) but just hasn’t been a priority to deal with. Then for some reason the flu vaccine kicked off a dramatic intensification that is still with me three weeks later. Full body aches, headache, swollen lymph glands in my neck.
The working theory is that a simmering CMV or EBV infection had room to boil over while my immune system was distracted. Kissing too many boys?
Anyway, I’ve never been sick like this for this long.
About ready to politely request an induced coma.

So, what do the voters of Dickson want? Aquatic centre? High speed rail? Street party with bottomless bar? Give them whatever they want. They’ve done a service to this country.

It’s pretty telling they didn’t have an actual MP willing to sit in the ABC panel.

All 930 votes have their second preferences considered, because there’s no way to determine which individual ballots are the excdss.
The key is that the second preferences transferred at a reduced rate: excess votes for Liz divided by total votes for Liz. i.e. 129/930 = 0.13.
See the Transferring the surplus section on this official AEC information.

Quote from page 14 of the “Ballot paper formality guidelines” published by the AEC on 14 August 2023:
Senate guidelines
Consecutive sequence of numbers – Above the line
For an above the line vote (ATL), voters are instructed to consecutively number at least 6 boxes above the black line, in the order of their preference, commencing with the number ‘1’.
[…]
However, where a voter consecutively numbers fewer than 6 boxes, (including only one box with a first preference) the ballot paper will still be formal, but will exhaust after the last consecutive number.In other words, if you only numbered 5 boxes above the line it does still count, it just exhausts sooner.
Their practice voting tool has sensibly omitted the finer details, they always encourage people to vote “correctly”.
Regardless of you definitely won’t make the same mistake next time I’m sure.

Corflutes and HTVs are used widely by all parties, not just the Greens. But the Greens are the target of your critique because someone allegedly hurt your feelings? (Both materials are 100% recyclable, by the way.)
I’m more concerned about the dozens of new coal and gas project approvals under Labor. Billions of tonnes of pollution is a bit more impactful that a few thousand printed pamphlets and signs, that everyone else is doing anyway.
Guarantee your outburst was completely pointless and quickly forgotten.

Just noticed today that La Trobe St outside State Library Station is now clear for eastbound traffic, definitely a sign we’re getting much closer to opening the munnel. They’ve also laid brand new cobblestone in a side street which is pretty cool.

I’ve been impressed by fastprinting.com.au in the past. Consider ordering a paper sample book first if you want to get a feel for the weight options beforehand.
I also used to go to Minuteman Press (not online) for work related print jobs. The crew at the Southbank location were such legends and total print nerds. Would never sell you a flimsy bit of rag.
