The Jaguar was a home version of the arcade board used by Atari Games for coin-op games like "PaperBoy" and "Escape From the Planet of the Robot Monsters". The Tramiel family bought out the system from Atari Games.

The Greens stopping more housing as usual.

 

The Victorian Greens are threatening to block upcoming changes to the state’s planning laws unless they include a requirement for half of all dwellings in new developments to be either public or affordable housing.

 

Everyone's having ago, I really feel like I'm missing out.

I think they said before it will be solid state lithium batteries, which are also faster to charge.

The reason is the US market. And catering to them exclusively has always been a success for Eurpean manufacturers hasn't it ?

There is no real evidence of any slowdown, and there won;t be while the Ukraine war continues. Russia exports the same sort of stuff as Australia so sanctions mean that our exports are going gangbusters.

Last months retail figures showed no growth, but per capita spending remains at an unsustainable rate (without causing inflation), more than twice the per capita level before the pandemic.

Inflation won't be going away anytime soon.

 

Australia’s economy added 76,000 jobs last month as employers defied signs of slowing demand to expand the national workforce beyond 14m for the first time. The drop in the unemployment rate came even as the participation rate rose to a record 66.9%, meaning more people were looking for work.

 

Our research shows that aged care work is burdened by three types of stigma – physical, social and moral.

Physical stigma refers to work performed under particularly dangerous conditions, or being exposed to dirt, bodily fluids and death. Examples of jobs with high physical stigma include firefighting, working with sewage and being an undertaker.

Social stigma is associated with work seen as low-status, because it involves being in a servile relationship and working with people belonging to marginalised group – in this case, older people.

Moral stigma involves work that is viewed as deceptive or unethical. Examples include used car salespeople and loan sharks. Our findings point to a moral stigma around aged care work, which is reinforced by media coverage of elder abuse and neglect.

Neumann Drive (www.abc.net.au)

The Neumann Drive will be used by space companies in the US which carry devices on their satellites such as nets or robotic arms to capture orbital waste.

The thruster would then enable those satellites to return to Earth with the waste to be melted down into more fuel.

"It helps the satellites to de-orbit when the lifetime is complete, it could be after three years or five years, so we're helping de-orbiting or reducing space junk," Mr Baig said.

 

Well nothig really, since our beloved media are run by the same Americans anyway...
