It actually sounds like the van’s panels (I’m guessing especially the large roof panel) can provide non-trivial power:

“Even if I’m stuck somewhere we just have to wait a couple of hours and it’ll self charge and bring me home.” (emphasis added)

No doubt the huge array of panels on his roof can give it a lot more juice though!

Yeah the titles from ABC News are generally… not my personal choice these days, but I guess they feel the need to play whatever the title game is.

Did you actually read through the article, or are you just assuming the contents based on the (admittedly mildly clickbait-y) title?

Covid, yes, but not widespread lockdowns (and some other stuff from the “early covid” period) which is basically what the article is reflecting on. For example, I hadn’t really thought about how it could affect child social development due to significantly reduced social exposure.

This isn’t really a “covid is over” piece. ‘It’s still a serious human pathogen’ wouldn’t be a sub-heading if it was.

Good stuff, sometimes aggressive measures need to be taken to look out for the interest of the shareholders. Plus the fuel discount is a perfectly timed Christmas gift, exactly what Australia needs in a cost of living crisis. Bravo Woolies, very proud to have my superannuation invested in a company that cares!

It’s funny when the two of us more-or-less agree on the summary. Nonetheless, whoever reads both often ends up just basically reading the original lol.

Holy shit, half, and they nearly shut down. I hope that’s not just going to be a death-spiral for them, where losing that many staff ends up killing the company anyway :(

I’ve never seen the stats before and 8% seems really high?? Is there some subset of Australia that tips all the time that I rarely see?

Edit: nvm, the stat is confusing as other commenter pointed out.

The number of payments with tips has remained stable throughout the last year with 0.52% of payments throughout the hospitality sector including a tip in August 2023, according to Lightspeed.

Given that they remind readers what brands an Android phone phone could be, I don’t think the article is aimed at many aussie zoners.

I guess they’re trying to drive home that the scammer isn’t coming at you with a poorly worded email riddled with typos here - the overlay can look legitimate (even if in some cases it still has typos lol). Probably would’ve been a bit much for them to cover every banking interface tbf.

Eh, it’s 10 points down on PM approval, with a net approval decline of 40 (!) in 3 months. I think the descriptions are pretty fair when applied to the combination of polls, especially since “worst” is objective in this context.

It’s still worth calling out and recording the lie :(
