  • Today marks five years since the New South Wales Government in Australia phased out flying-fox shooting as a crop protection method in orchards. That's something to celebrate!

  • I’m sympathetic to the fact that it is a cost and I agree that it is absolutely worth incurring. It’s kind of crazy that fences are not required in the first place. How are you keeping your animals on your land otherwise? That should be a normal level of responsibility.

  • Especially since protecting from predators just requires having some dogs. It is easily achievable and not very expensive for the services provided. Wolves contribute to the ecosystem and should be allowed to live.

  • Can we add dog barking? I used to have a dog that would get so triggered by it. Really unnecessary. I’ve been joking with my husband that it would be nice if shows had an audio track like they do for different languages but just change the sound mixing and remove the common irritants.

  • Glad you were covered to get back on your feet.

    That all sounds quite complex to navigate. Crazy with all the tech and resources that we have available now and these are the systems that were designed.

  • lol. I would hate having to wear a glove all the time.

    Edit: So I spent a little time trying to read about it online and pretty much their claim is that it only works if you get your hand close enough to the terminal. So basically the only thing keeping your payment information safe is distance. That would make me very uncomfortable. Wait until bad actors start embedding readers in places you touch naturally without thinking about it like at the gas station pump etc…

  • Having such a reactionary approach is counterproductive, I agree. I know people for who psychiatric care is not optional, they’re doing fine on the right meds though that requires monthly follow ups. That would cost a fortune! Also not covering physical rehabilitation is confusing as it’s pretty much needed after surgery, how are people supposed to regain as much function as possible?

    Our health insurance here costs $600 per person per month but then it covers specialists with a $40 copay, includes vision and dental. Basically if you can afford private insurance it’s manageable but that’s a horrible way to design the system since you often loose your insurance if you change jobs.

    I miss the French system, it’s not perfect but it was more affordable and teeth were not considered optional. The main inconvenience that I remember were the wait times so you just have to be organized for your routine care and it’s no problem.

  • Sorry to hear that. I didn’t realize the Australian healthcare system was as bad as the one in the USA. $500 to see a specialist is not ok, especially not for psychiatry when the medical support is literally life changing.

  • Hadn’t even considered that. I have to unlock my devices to authorize a payment. How does that work with an implant?

  • These people were not influencers, just people with strong held beliefs. They weren’t filming anything or pushing social media. Recording posters is actually against that conference’s policy
