I wonder if this will also include extra subsidies for electric vehicles which support bidirectional charging. Could really help push for an increase in electric vehicle uptake if you can also use it as a battery overnight.

Finally signed up to the C2S! Going to finally actually do a run instead of training for imaginary half marathons like I have for the last year!

I call dibs on the clothesline for the 3 hours of reported sunshine the BOM is reporting will happen on Wednesday morning.

Hopefully the sun starts to appear as the week progresses! At least the summer heat seems to be vanishing!

 

Interesting reading the article. Would be good to see the complete ACCC report.

So I heard when I got to work... Well, I'll enjoy the weather while it lasts!

Yeah, I use to volunteer a few hours each week back before I picked up more roles at work. It really does feel fulfilling when you know you're giving back to the community. Would be great if there were provisions to allow more people to volunteer (outside of disaster response which already allows you to take a leave of absence for combat agencies in certain scenarios).

Autumn weather is finally in! Shame it can't stay like this for the rest of the year!

It's difficult isn't it. Itch.io was my other choice but again it's an American company. It's kind of surprising that an alternative storefront hasn't really started to rise out of SEA + Japan and Korea considering how popular gaming is there.

Other than GOG is there even any other storefronts that don't give you a steam key that aren't American?

I don't know. By asking Australians to make up their own mind about what they purchase over trying to bring tariffs in retaliation hopefully it will draw less ire from the the US.

Plus most staple goods are primarily Aussie made and manufactured (bread, milk etc.). So asking to think about Aussie produced products it won't massively increase the cost of living (hopefully).

And I was just getting use to the autumn weather! Hopefully this is the last heatwave so I can finally break out the doona.
