$9 for one yuebing? There's one born every minute. 6 for AUD$30 around here. And as for 'gross' someone has strange tastes. Overly sweet for sure, and 1/4 of one mooncake super-sates my sugar craving. Bitter? That's weird since most are filled with sweet jams like black sesame paste, red bean, jasmine, lychee or durian. Some are savoury, but bitter? Unimaginable!
The Victorian state government signed an agreement, not Australia. Subsequently the Federal Govt ripped up the agreement. Check your information - Australia is not a party to 1B1R but they arguably should be.
@rob Quote from ex-pm Morrison I'm pretty sure Australia has refrained from participating in 1B1R. Personally I see it as benefitting the world, whereas the Yanks see it as somehow sinister.
@chancer what nonsense! the price of oil before the Russian invasion of the Ukraine was back to the level of 2018. The cause of the low was the Saudi-Russia oil price war, and the cause of the high is mostly Russia-Ukraine, nothing whatsoever to do with defeat of Trump, a cause for worldwide rejoicing in my opinion.
@srl too neat? what an absurd thing to say. He has hired help. No one said that's HOW they found the documents, the picture says 'THESE documents were found'. Think!
@Ray650 consider the price now is back to 2018 level. Then there was Syria-Russia Oil war when prices fell (no doubt Donald Trump had schemed that, right) Then in early 2021 it rose back to 2018 level, so that was Biden right? And Ukraine hike was also Biden, but fall back to 2018 levels that was Trump's fore-thinking? Jee-zuz the logic is amazing innit!
A huge win? A win... (at last)? A delay perhaps. After 50 odd (very odd) court cases he wins a delay. Whoopee yay! Callooh Callay! Trumpee baby's won a short delay!
Biden made a strong speech. Gloves off and high time too! There is no point in appeasing the rabid and incorrigible 'We wuz robbed' deplorables! Time to win over the middle and moderate republicans who sensibly reject Trump's rabble rousing.
@ab It is also eminently eye-g-n-o-r-a-b-l-e I used to think that the greatest torture would be to be strapped down, eyelids pinned open and confronted with endlessly playing MURDER SHE WROTE episodes. Instead you have risen in my esteem to the same lofty height; having your 'musical prose' before one's eyes is way up there too.
Ah, interesting - I was unaware of residential GT Heat pumps - up to 4kw for 1kw of electricity it seems, but it is limited to heating and cooling use, does not generate electricity as Solar does. The Super GT still requires large deep heat sources
Cost depends on depth and @op you should remember that NZ is geothermally active - the ring of fire. Iceland too, japan, indonesia, alaska, california, west coast south America. It is not such an effective option if you don't have volcanos and earthquakes
@mic curious that on a blog thread which moans about distant foreigners expressing thoughts and opinions about America, you should choose to publish skynews.com.au youtubes, don't you agree? Somewhat ironic? skynews.com.au + fox - check their bias rating... try ABC Planet America instead I suggest.
@op the fact that you as an insular and one-eyed American ignoramus know little about the rest of the world does not mean that others share your ignorance and disinterest. Without living in the Roman empire I still know a lot about Claudius and without living in San Diego or Big Sur, a lot about America, its culture, its myths, the land of McCarthyism and (shudder) its 45th president. Even about lake Wobegon!
@merc he cannot be president, he rejects chopped chicken and won't try the wonderful Hainan Chicken Rice. These are constitutional requirements for American presidents.
It seems to me that @scuttledbutt is indeed trying to do as he says. He has made antagonising posts in my thread about a Japanese student and also in @bcjenn's - no accident I think.
the ever-widening divide in America is a matter for worldwide concern. Hark back to the civil war! This increasingly angry polarisation has been growing for more than 20 years, and approaches the brink it seems to onlookers like myself. 300+ million weapons there in the good ol' U.S of A. Not quite so good these days - time to find some unity.
delusion self-deception and dementia in USA and it spreads and extends even to provincial Kiwi-land. Idiocy! No evidence, just blather, and of course SCOTUS or any other court except the court of ignorance rejects it. Nonsense.
There are claims of read-access. Nowhere do I see claims of write-access or delete access. Do you? If they could achieve Write/Delete access you've gotta be sure it would have been Trump'eted loud and long.
Given unlimited access to equipment that is just password or key-protected of course it is possible to generate a finite number of attempts - except that the equipment would likely shut down attempts after a limited number of trials. The B-S continues - looking forward to her days in court!
