The Wikipedia article talked about how well the trials went. I was wondering if any were actually used.

Other than one prototype unit, however, the locomotive was never produced. By 1850, steam was clearly king, and any horse-powered railways outside of streetcar operations were on the way out. Thus, the Impulsoria became nothing more than a strange curiosity of an early railway engine.

thin, large and sturdy?

Sounds like: garbage bags!

You'd have to buy them too.

It will not be able to make a finding of criminality.[30] The NACC will have the power to investigate pork barrelling.[31][23] It will not have the power to sack parliamentarians.[32]

Idk if the vanced community's patch is different, but I've read a couple of "add your own API key". They end with: it won't take much for reddit to break this. Also, even with the new key, other stuff is broken. Not worth the effort IMHO.

Rip the band-aid off now.

due to factors like land clearing and development, three of Australia’s wild macadamia species are considered threatened, and one is endangered. So experts are keen to track down more centuries-old macadamia trees that harbor rare DNA—trees that are likely to exist on “little pockets ... on private land and even in people’s backyards and farming land,” Denise Bond, executive officer of Australia’s Macadamia Conservation Trust, tells Nichols.

Land clearing is something Australia excels in.

But is the frequency of earthquakes actually increasing significantly? The short answer is no.

Seismologists say this morning's tremor was actually an aftershock of the magnitude-5.9 quake that shook four states in 2021.
