I too have mild astigmatism. I used glasses for about 4 years before trying contact lenses. Have been using contacts for 10 years now and i much prefer them.

Ironically it was when the stock android upgrade on my pixel 7 completely bricked my phone (due to the multiple user profiles bug) that I decided to jump in to Graphene head first.

Compared to my experience running random ROMs on Samsungs back in the era of galaxy note 1 to 4, Graphene installer was so easy!

I wonder what their reaction would be if you are running Graphene OS and you gave them the duress PIN.

We know the liberal party have been itching to do this for a while now. Scummo mentioned it in the last days before the election.

No doubt it's happening next time the liberal party gets in.

As if it isn't enough that they transfer tax dollars to established real estate owners, they will transfer super balances to them as well.

I'm not sure the families living in tents and cars will agree with you.

Perhaps you aren't aware that we have a housing crisis in Australia.

Record low rental vacancies. Housing is too expensive and scarce for people on median incomes.

The people we import typically have enough money to displace those who don't. Those who don't end up homeless. Our politicians don't give a fuck as many own multiple investment properties.

Excellent news for the economy, and by the economy I mean "rich people's yachts"

Dear peasants who don't own real estate,

fuck you, got mine.

Sincerely, Politicians

I wonder if the tasks pane has been added to the new outlook yet. Last time I tried it at work it was no where to be found. I like having my flagged items next to my inbox.

 

I'm sure if we keep voting for the Libor and Laberal parties they will eventually fix it right?

It's not about blaming the immigrants themselves, it's the rate at which the government has chosen to bring them in. We can't build housing at anywhere near that rate to accommodate them.

All that happens is those at the bottom end of the socioeconomic spectrum end up not being able to get a rental and living in their car or a tent.

Those in the next few rungs up end up with reduced standard of living also. Meanwhile the 1% laugh at us losers calling each other names and squabbling amongst ourselves instead of pointing the pitchforks at those who orchestrate it.

 

Not sure I agree with the title that no one can ”escape” it. I think the wealth hoarding class does very nicely out of everyone else's misery. Perhaps if things don't turn around their grand children might go from owning the whole country to facing a guillotine.

More likely once there is a large enough percentage of people who will have no hope of owning, then they will start to have an effect at the polling booth.

 

Australians are driving bigger, heavier, dirtier cars and it's alarming both climate and road safety experts.

A decade ago, sedans and hatchbacks were the most popular cars in Australia. Today, Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and American-style utes dominate new car sales and advertising.
