Banking runs fine, haven’t tested MyGov yet.

Google Pay won’t be running, have seen people getting it to work temperamentally, but generally no GPay.

Just got my first Pixel phone and installed Graphene OS, surprised how pain-free it is.

Third-party OS’ have come a long way since I soft-bricked my HTC One M8 with CyanogenMod a decade ago.

Turns out it doesn’t work on the laptop screen either, completely unavailable for Linux.

Channel 7 doesn’t support my DisplayPort cable.

This whole saga is pretty absurd and shocking, I’m too cheap to run a VPN but I’ll likely have to start selfhosting on a foreign VPS.

Suspicious Fire Tears Through Melbourne’s Historic Jam Factory Complex

I strongly recommend Linux Mint Cinnamon Edition, I’ve been exclusively using Linux distros for years, Mint is the only one that for me just works how I want out of the box and stays working.

I’ve been an enthusiastic Android user for nearly 15 years now, this Google change is pretty scary.

Installing apps through FDroid is no more “sideloading” than installing a game through Steam.

Manhunt still underway near Bright.

Chili is more enjoyable.

Why doesn’t Victoria have .vic TLD, every LGA could have stonnington.vic, campaspe.vic, parliament.vic

Nobody’s claimed it yet and it’s only a matter of time.

On that note. .melbourne? why not something normal like .melb, better yet, why not have the whole state use .vic.

This weeks Always Sunny is one of their best.

I watched it for the first time the other week, enjoyed it, liked the actor from Six Feet.

I’m inclined to support 18 as the age of full legal responsibility in society, which is why I favour moving the voting age to 17.

In Australia, adults in prison who are expected to be released during the upcoming electoral term are allowed to vote, as they will return to society during that term. I think a similar principle should apply to 17-year-olds: they will be 18 for the majority of the term being voted on and should have a say in the government that will represent them when they are an adult.

The average 17-year-old is about 17.5 years old at any point in the year. This means that, on average, they miss out on roughly 2.5 to 3 years of democratic representation if they cannot vote in the election preceding their 18th birthday. While age thresholds are somewhat arbitrary, they are necessary for consistency in law in balancing different rates of maturity uniformly. And although many 16-year-olds may be as intellectually capable as adults, the difference in maturity and development year-on-year at these younger ages are still significant.

I believe the case for including 17-year-olds is much stronger than for 16-year-olds. The average 17-year-old misses out on about 30 months of representation, compared to around 18 months for the average 16-year-old. A meaningful difference.

TL;DR: For these reasons, I support allowing 17-year-olds to vote, on behalf of their adult selves, for the government that will represent them for most of the term, once they turn 18.

Same with Poker Face, S02 is 12 EPs.

More before the last scene, when he would monologue about his apartment.

The CGI is surprisingly good in Fight Club, for a 26yr old movie from the '90s.
