My most hated ST 'win'. You're right of course but I've tried to forget that ending

Hear hear. There's still a lot of good in there even with the examples you have given

Not sure why you got down voted because you are right. Most amazon workers are living in a late stage capitalist hell, not sipping lattes at 10.

But then I have to watch ads on my phone at work. YTP is just convenient. I hate it but it's convenient.

My wife just said we should move to Queensland. She was living in Singapore last year and misses the good PT. Brisbane for the win I guess

100% agree. Getting something is better than nothing. Plus with the system the way it is, your just penalising the honest people.

If the victorian railways were held accountable and there was less corruption in victracks property division, the dodgy land sales to property developers would stop and there would be more funding for our public transport.

I think we should demo a free system here but with the mayors wanting to rip up bike lanes and the state investing so heavily in roads there's probably no money left for pt.

In 2005, the state committed almost $1 billion to develop myki by 2007 to replace the ageing Metcard system, and operate myki for 10 years

Just over half of myki's almost $1 billion initial budget—around $520 million—was for establishing the system by 2007 and operating it for 10 years.

It was expected that myki would deliver around $6.3–$10.8 million per year in economic benefits to the state...

myki was great value /s

"Train operator SNCF's chief executive, Jean-Pierre Farandou, said the attackers had started fires in "conduits carrying multiple (fibre-optic) cables" that carried "safety information for drivers" or control the motors for points."

Seems this attack is becoming more common place. Used to just be the occasional tractor or digger damaging fibre but now it's seems to be intentional.

Why must I agree to be terms and conditions to play a game I bought 10 years ago? I just wanted to play some Civ. 2k games are the prime example of what is wrong with the world of gaming.

My wife was telling me she had become a bogan after living in Australia for a decade. So I showed her this gem so she understands that you are born into bogan not something you learn.
