Most people in the meat industry agree it’s a good move.
It’s only the unscrupulous and greedy ones that are kicking up a fuss.
Just because we raise animals for slaughter doesn’t mean we can’t minimise the discomfort the animals experience.

Adelaide … associated with religion/church

Please, tell me more about a place you’ve never been, but half remember hearing it’s the “city of churches”.

Whilst I didn’t always agree with their pronouncements, having a fact checker at this time seems to me a very important thing.

They include reference to “a new in-house verification reporting team, ABC News Verify”, but that sounds like they’ll only be verifying their own news, which is nice, but not the point.

You could read David Leigh’s book, in which he published the full decryption key: https://www.amazon.com/WikiLeaks-Inside-Julian-Assanges-Secrecy/dp/161039061X

That’s literally how he leaked it.

The wikipedia article on it has the whole “he said - she said”:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikiLeaks:_Inside_Julian_Assange’s_War_on_Secrecy

Including the lie that is frequently parroted about Assange not caring about people dying.

That was an editor at The Guardian, David Leigh.

This didn’t happen, Wikileaks vetted information before releasing it for exactly this reason.

Name one person.

Its technically US soil, so he could enter his plea there in a US court, but its the closest place to Australia, because he obviously refused to step foot on the American continent.

Yes, the threats worked and the corrupt won.

Now he gets to see his kids.
I’d choose that too.
You can call it cowardice, I’d call it pragmatism.

The US get to show just how tough they are on whistleblowers and their associates.
Assange gets to go home.

If I was him, I’d keep my head down and try to get to know my kids.

For those not aware of the history, the Housing Trust was originally a Liberal policy in SA.
It was designed to keep rents under control and spur the construction industry, providing cheap basic accommodation.
It implemented the revolutionary idea of spreading out the ‘poor houses’ amongst the ‘normies’ in the community, so you didn’t end up with slums.

Whilst I have never lived in one and hopefully would never have to, I’m glad that it’s going to return to it’s original mission because we need those things back.

I didn’t say they were great.
I’m saying that the current rise in minors is a symptom of voter dissatisfaction.

These changes to WA law related to firearms are sold to the general public as being “tough on crime” or in some nebulous way “making communities safer”, when realistically they won’t impact criminals in any but the most tangential way.

What is going to happen is that someone who is a law abiding citizen, already subject to all sorts of regulatory compliance, is going to have decide which of their guns they can most easily forgo to get under an arbitrary cap.

If you don’t like guns, lets use a metaphor and imagine you’re a golfer who is now forced to choose whether they are going to forgo the putter, the sand wedge, the iron or the wood - because people who don’t even play golf have decided you can only have 3.

There are very few people, even in a dyed in community like shooting, that are so one eyed as to wholly pivot their vote on a single issue.
But it has lead directly to minor parties and independents gaining traction in regional areas (places where gun owners per capita are higher).
This is why groups like Shooters Fishers and Farmers sprung up.

Can you share this knowledge, please?

This specific image from the article has me cringing:

That source doesn’t have a link to their paper that works.

Yeah, link rot.
I did some googling for you: https://www.ceem.unsw.edu.au/sites/default/files/documents/Low Emission Fossil Scenarios.pdf

But as far as I know we can’t build anywhere near enough hydro in Australia.

https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Parliamentary_Departments/Parliamentary_Library/pubs/rp/rp2021/AustralianElectricityOptionsPumpedHydro

A study at the Australian National University (ANU) identified about 3,000 low-cost potential sites around Australia with head typically better than 300 metres and storage larger than one gigalitre (see Figure 3). The sites identified have a combined energy storage potential of around 163,000 GWh. To put this into perspective, a transition to a 100% renewable electricity system would need 450 GWh of PHES storage. The potential pumped hydro energy storage resource is almost 300 times more than required. Developers can afford to be very selective since only about 20 sites (the best 0.1% of sites) would be required to support 100% renewable electricity generation.

Emphasis mine.

Let me paraphrase the LNP here:
“Private companies have researched Nuclear and decided it’s not cost effective.”
“Financial institutions have investigated Nuclear and decided they WILL NOT INVEST.”
“But our financial backers at the Mineral Council and the private companies dragging the last of the profit out of their end of life coal power stations are insisting that we continue with our current market AS LONG AS POSSIBLE, so we’ve decided to announce an extremely long term plan, to scare private investment out of renewables short term.”
“Don’t worry, between NIMBYs in the target areas, laws surrounding nuclear energy, lack of local expertise and the general unsuitability of Nuclear for our widely dispersed yet small population, we won’t actually build more than one of these things.”
“Jokes on them, we were only pretending to be retarded.”

For instance, personal favourite The Prancing Pony has a special menu on: https://prancingponybrewery.com.au/event/winter-solstice-celebration/

However, NOLA in the city is repeating last years “Festival of Darkness” https://www.nolaadelaide.com/events/festival-of-darkness-2/ which seems like a good idea (especially as it’s in the city, so if it turns out to be not so good, I’m surrounded by options).

Late to post, but it is happening in SA.

Just to resurrect this thread from a week ago, posts I just made in /c/Adelaide are not showing thumbnails.
