Cynth Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 After reading an article on the costs of misinformation this morning, I came across this article. Two “influencers” who whilst brandishing strict parenting advice to their millions of followers were seriously abusing the children in their care……all is not what it seems in the fake online world and people’s tendency to seek their advice from unqualified, charismatic people with online channels are the epitome of ignorant for me….we desperately need people to be media literate…. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67837469 EmMac and sonar 2 Link to comment

Was pleased to see that even when the Tollgate was gentrified that Reschs still managed to stay on tap, another one that is getting rare. Link to comment
marron Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I almost posted before, a mate of mine belongs to the Resch's society, they keep an updated list of where has it and you can get a little card and get it stamped and stuff like that. Would not be surprised to learn that their efforts have kept it in one or two places. I suppose it is linked to gentrification, but also, ffs, you've got 7 pale ales on tap or whatever, would it kill you to have at least one darker option? That's the bit I don't get.

I need to join said society. As a lover of stouts and porters my biggest issue with the rise of craft beer is the tiny amount of dark beers compared to the ubiquitous and incredibly dull pale ale variants.

Paul01 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 This has ground my gears for years and the RBA "might" do something about it. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-03-04/australians-lose-one-billion-in-surcharges-least-cost-routing/103530946?utm_source=abc_news_app&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_app&utm_content=other And the article states that surcharges for card use are banned in the UK and Europe.

Davo Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 One Nation and UAP got 7.87% of the vote in 2022. Didn't run this time and the Libs picked up 6.84%. That helped them in the two party preferred vote, but Labor still went from 40.23% of first preferences in 2022 to 41.10% in 2024, which is a strong result considering by-elections usually have a swing against the government.
