Time to go to Aldi, and grab an "Adult Hobby" kit they have on special.

Setka was pretty popular at a grassroots level though. He have enough support to win elections.

They do 6.66% beers, and a few Death Metal flyer artists have done their cans.

The Mill Brewery are taking over the Bendigo Hotel, and keeping the bandroom.

I don't bother until the very last moment, as I normally have a tax debt.

A retired old man, just like Rod Sims.

5G does have a congestion problem at peak hours as well, meaning that Telstra and Optus won't sell you 5G home broadband if there's already too many subscribers in your area.

As an engineer in the Aussie Telco industry, I know a lot of people that work for Telstra, or companies under the TPG group.

However I don't know anyone that works for Optus.

In Japan is common for a main street in a shopping district to be closed for vehicular traffic on Weekends.

However it's pretty much only the main street that gets closed.

Japanese law also puts more responsibility for the driver of the bigger vehicle to avoid an accident as well. So streets where vehicular traffic are allowed are somewhat chill as well.

There's also been a lot of substandard materials used by DoT contractors post Covid, which means that the project supervisors also really have to keep an eye on things as well

However all the good regional supervisors at the DoT have gone into consultancy, leaving their regional offices staffed with a lot of graduates.

I'm also going to say that intersection design is also a bigger factor than road surfaces. Especially as a now banned optical illusion causing intersection style is still rife across the regions. Drivers on the side road think that the intersection is a roundabout. But in fact they need to yield to the main road.

The Chiltern quadruple fatality was caused at one such intersection, and it's quite easy to see how the intersection can be perceived as a roundabout.

We're not gonna have the resources to replace every intersection. However it's almost negligent leaving that style of intersection on the main alternative route into Chiltern.

This fact is also reflected in the tonnage statistics.

For non-bulk freight across the Nullarbor, rail has double the market share of Sea transport. Which then has double the market share of Road transport. It's not the case for Melbourne Sydney though.
