Covid, yes, but not widespread lockdowns (and some other stuff from the “early covid” period) which is basically what the article is reflecting on. For example, I hadn’t really thought about how it could affect child social development due to significantly reduced social exposure.

This isn’t really a “covid is over” piece. ‘It’s still a serious human pathogen’ wouldn’t be a sub-heading if it was.

Good stuff, sometimes aggressive measures need to be taken to look out for the interest of the shareholders. Plus the fuel discount is a perfectly timed Christmas gift, exactly what Australia needs in a cost of living crisis. Bravo Woolies, very proud to have my superannuation invested in a company that cares!

Holy shit, half, and they nearly shut down. I hope that’s not just going to be a death-spiral for them, where losing that many staff ends up killing the company anyway :(

In terms of spiciness, my impression was no. If I hadn’t looked at the ingredients, I wouldn’t have guessed there was any in there.

I had a few of these a couple weeks ago (someone I know bought a packet) - the baking soda (?) seems to be what makes it “kinda ginger beer” instead of just “ginger”.

edit: typo

Given that they remind readers what brands an Android phone phone could be, I don’t think the article is aimed at many aussie zoners.

I guess they’re trying to drive home that the scammer isn’t coming at you with a poorly worded email riddled with typos here - the overlay can look legitimate (even if in some cases it still has typos lol). Probably would’ve been a bit much for them to cover every banking interface tbf.

I really enjoyed Scienceworks and the Melbourne Aquarium as a kid. Not sure I’d go far as to call them must-see, but worth checking out if your crew is keen on them!

I guess there’s going to be some interpretation about what a high vs low result really is (like how a 6/10 rated game or movie is “low”). I personally thought the raw results would have been lower based on some of the doomposting elsewhere in the thread.
