I think the issue is Apple guards their wallet so tightly that basically no jurisdiction can get their IDs in it
And it’s not like they’re being pushed out the building. There are transition packages, support payments. They’re getting a LOT in the process.
Even if the coalition decides to reopen the trade, any sensible business will stay clear because the next labor government will shut it again.
I mean, I was very surprised to hear that when the announcement was made. May the truth come out
I hadn’t ridden properly for a couple of decades, then after Covid inherited a bike and decided to ride on some bike tracks. Had a great time and now I try to ride anything 10km and under.
It took a little while to get used to riding on roads, but I’ve overcome that.
Also, I’ve noticed that there are lots of great bike tracks but even more missing links to join them all together.
Wait till enough people are mad enough to make destructive change inevitable. The tax concessions, rebates, concessions, discounts will be wound back. Just how hard that landing is will depend on how concentrated wealth will be.

For example, many cloud dependent “smart” home products have been crippled or bricked by their vendors disabling or limiting cloud services. In those cases, consumers deserve a remedy if the change happens soon enough after purchase.

This is interesting. So therefore a plot of land in the centre of a city would be so expensive for land taxes that the best way to reside on it would be for it to be subdivided and have lots of people be responsible for its cost. Therefore, it encourages densification through tax.
I have a vision of the Apple Watch Android port team sitting in an internal office, frisbee throwing business cards into a bin for three years.
Abbott, love him or loathe him (likely the latter), has a deep respect for the institutions of this country and is fiercely loyal to his friends.
Abbott is an absolute bonehead but he serves with a higher calling than his own self enrichment.
And how many houses were we building per 100,000 people back then compared with now?
Better stock up on bags before it closes
I mean, it wouldn’t be so bad if the population never changed from what it was 70+ years ago
The harder you pull an elastic band, the more likely you get hurt when it breaks.
Governments keep the policy status quo at their peril.
Neighbourhoods change. The city and neighbourhoods you’re clinging to don’t exist anymore. In their wake can come great new neighbourhoods, just different to what was there.
Thanks for the suggestion I’ll follow it up!
