Outside the US it’s uncommon to require insurance on the property.

Tasmania election, the Labor leader immediately conceded defeat and didn’t want to entertain the idea of forming a coalition with anyone, especially the Greens. I mean like, what a loser, by her own choosing.
Years ago on twitter some random disabled guy called Dutton a “rape apologist”, and got sued to oblivion and utterly destroyed his life and family.
This guy is a monster.
Luckily he thinks he can become prime minister without the “woke left city dwellers” (most Australians live in cities), and is pushing a ludicrous nuclear energy agenda that is devoid of financial or environmental logic. So I’m fairly confident Albo will get re-elected.
If you’re under 30, full-time job, no looming debts, no kids, then the 6 months can really be 3 months or around $10,000. If you have a partner, you are even more secure. Remember this is a figure derived from very conservative financial commentators who assume you have a linear college and job progression (which is rarely the case). Even a 1 month savings buffer will save you for 90% of the unexpected expenses.
If you’re in your late 50s, finding a new job will be tough, especially if you are laid off during a recession. In that case a generous buffer beyond 6 months would be good.
Either way, having savings is a good thing. Yes you will miss out on those “epic Bitcoin gains”, but once you have made an emergency savings buffer, then you can really knuckle down on contributions to retirement.
In Australia we believe in equality, so I’ll piss off all the states.
Victoria : “afDanistan”, wokeville. Small latte drinkers who don’t have a driver’s licence. Labourers and Stop/Go people on $200,000.
New South Wales: dumb boomers on $3m property. Driving at 80kmh on their Learner drivers plates. Shit at rugby. Sydney nightlife ends at 9pm.
South Australia: “oh yeah I have an auntie there I think.” Nothing to do. Their water tastes funny. Churches everywhere. Weird 1.5hr timezone.
Western Australia: If you want to know why there’s a wait time for Toyota’s, it’s bloody WA buying them all. Full of cashed up bogans in lifted land cruisers. Have to watch footy at lunch time because they are 3 timezones away. If you are anti social and don’t mind a 6hr drive to anywhere live there.
Tasmania: 10 people live there with a mild sense of imbreeding. Looks kinda nice, but why would you go to Tassy if you can go to New Zealand for the same price.
Northern Territory: biggest employers, the mines and Pine Gap (the CIA base). Otherwise it’s Australia’s poverty lane.
Australian Capital Territory: Australia’s Uni campus. A concrete jungle, a tiny town where we keep the big wigs who are driven everywhere in black BMWs or Camry’s.
“So Mr President what has your government done for young families and in particular childcare and parental leave on your 4 years that will rally up the democratic base come 2024?”
“Taxes? Isn’t this the line for Metallica?”
Ar15s per school shooting.
I’m a primary school teacher, not related to computers, but every year kids are getting measurably worse with coins and money. I can give quite a few 9 year olds a few coins, and they would have a seriously hard time quantifying the amount. It’s funny the parents come to me saying their kid needs to be extended, but I’m just here saying “bro, your kid can’t even buy himself an ice-cream.”
Bill Gates no longer works for Microsoft. He couldn’t care less about you’re data.
Same for me. When RIF stopped working I went into Lemmy and haven’t went on Reddit since. The FOMO I thought I’d get isn’t there because I’m active and welcome here. I have people to connect with, and that’s what I really only wanted out of a social site like this.
/r/MadeMeSmile portrayed toxic positivity which felt out of touch with reality.
“I made my bed today. First time in 14 years 🙂”
Nsfw images can’t be monitised with ads.
I guess as a user I didn’t see the back-of-house tools for mods and admins, but so far Lemmy is at least competitive. There are risks with server security and threat of being hacked, along with the size of the team.
I miss r/Cricket with the massive community of Indian Redditors, they are so funny and quick witted, so it was a quiet one this week in the small Cricket sub (or whatever you call it). But glad to get the ball rolling with Lemmy.
Lamingtons? Lamb shanks? Lamborghinis?
Yeah English police are much more welcoming than the US police.
