and other department is a bunch of guys in a half ton truck with buckets of water.

More like a bunch of guys actively pouring fuel on the fire while calling fire itself a "liberal hoax".

Perplexica is one example. I also seem to remember there is some way to integrate it with SearxNG which is a self hosted meta search engine.

I'm going to have to try the selfhosted variants now. What a huge piece of shit.

• FPTP voting system
• Voting isn't compulsory so a lot depends upon on riling up your base
• Voting is on a Tuesday instead of a weekend (or a public holiday)
• Political parties draw up the electoral boundaries instead of an independent body
• The absurdly long leadup to an election
• The amount of money thrown around

There are also concerns about the relationship between the consultancy firm hired to oversee the restructure, KordaMentha, and the interim UOW boss.

KordaMentha was contracted to review UOW operations and people and culture in May.

In June the university appointed KordaMentha partner John Dewar as interim VC on a 12-month contract.

"We have essentially got a temporary fly-in, fly-out vice chancellor who is a partner in the firm that the university he runs has contracted to review the operations of the university," said Dr Cahill.

Quite sus. Also, John Dewar is this guy if you want a laugh.

It's plausible that it could be a clear win for either candidate. But yeah, a long, dragged out counting process is also quite probable.

This is a rock concert not a bleeding... splish splash show.

It doesn't say in the article, but this article claims that you can qualify to the Olympics by placing top 5 in a World Athletics rated Platinum Label event. Since Sydney Marathon became a Platinum Label event in 2022 , you could already qualify to the Olympics through that race.

They gave minimal warning about the emergency calling issue, and only a few weeks warning on the fact that "non-compliant" devices would be outright blocked (and each network has their own method on deciding on what is or isn't compliant).

And even the requirement for VoLTE support wasn't communicated early on.

Nevertheless, I agree that 3g needs to go just that it's been characterised by poor communication and heavy handedness.

Don't forget the climate. And that will have far greater long term effects to humanity than anything else.

One of the rare cases where that is a good thing. On the other hand, we also seem to be reigniting the abortion fight based on the US.

This exactly, as long as your phone has at least one frequency band of the provider, then it will at least connect to their network and allow you to access data.

In the implementation in Australia, you actually will lose data access too if you're blocked (wifi still works of course). That strikes me as kind of dumb, but I guess they don't want to give the impression that it's supported at all, since the whole thing is about emergency calling access.

This is true, but the way the telcos have been implementing it is different (even if the specifics of that remain unclear).

I expect some blacklisted devices will become whitelisted in the future on the various networks (and vice-versa). The whole thing has been poorly communicated and rather opaque.

It's not just the bands. You could have all of the needed bands and still be blocked (and you could me missing one and just get a warning).

All if the examples of blocking appear to be from Optus in the article. And anecdotally they seem to have been the most heavy handed with this. So while there might be further blocking over time on the other networks, I'd start by switching to the Vodafone or Telstra networks if you end up blocked by Optus.

...I withdraw my question.

I don't know about the 2 VMs part (although that should work) but they have a Youtube channel with a couple of videos, including Resident Evil Village.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes that same rib twice in succession yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we, to believe that this is some sort of a, a magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Possibly you are CPU bottlenecked in those particular games, in which case FSR would do nothing.

I'd like to see it show if there is any third party DRM as well, like the Augmented Steam extension does.
