“Australia has high population growth but also a large construction sector” largest construction sector does not translate to number of houses build. All money just going to approvals and other shit which has nothing to do with building.

And they still do not consider nuclear. 2 plants and coal is gone.

Get back to Earth, mate, we’re talking about today’s Australia. It will, for the foreseeable future, be run by cars and trucks. As I mentioned initially, bicycles are a hobby, not an essential. And so far, you haven’t provided any arguments to prove I’m wrong. So, the expectation that spending money on a hobby for a small minority, as opposed to something essential for the majority, is somehow justified, sounds strange to me

When did I say that nobody rides? I just find it ridiculous to compare expenses on non-essential infrastructure with essential infrastructure. Non-essential infrastructure deserves only a small percentage of funding. If we were talking about something like playgrounds or bicycle paths, it would be a different story. Both are non-essential, but both make cities better. So, it becomes a matter of discussion as to which should receive more investment.

I’m not sure why you mentioned, ‘All the data shows that the number one indicator of cycling rates is the quality of infrastructure.’ It’s obvious, but it doesn’t explain why we should spend more on cycling paths."

If you need something which can withstand some bitrot on single drive, just use par2. As long is filesystem is readable, you can recover files even if bit of data get corrupted

It means you published 8080. Just stop doing it. nginx can reach that container via internal network (assuming they are on same network). Publishing docker-compose would help.

Any arguments? Discussion needs some, otherwise it just tossing shit to each other. Completely pointless, and harms both sides. Bicycles as mode of transportation is relic of the past now. We are not in Vietnam. Public transit, cars and trucks is what move this country.

Roman example is just not applicable, we are in 21th century now.

“Cars and trucks are a modern convenience, that is all”. Do you really see that modern economy can function without cars and trucks? No, this is why we have to live with all their drawbacks,costs and dangers. There is simple no alternatives.

“I can get everywhere by bike, train or bus. No need for a car. I have one, but by your reasoning, my car to me is just a hobby.” And what made that possible, truck and cars. When you ride your bike to shop to buy a milk, how that milk get there ? By truck.

“And what about those who cannot drive, be it for age, medical reasons, lack of income to afford a car etc?” and what about those who can’t ride?

Just a hdd in usb caddy? IMHO good enough for 4 tier backup.

It is corporate takeover, why be so surprised?

just a normal PC? Streaming should work in a browser.

Bicycles are not essential. Get rid of bicycles and nothing will happen, get rid of the trucks and cars and everything stops. It is people choice to use them, not necessity. Which is a definition of a hobby.

reality.

It just reflect usefulness of each applications. You needs trucks but bicycle is just a hobby. Walking just do not need much infra at all.

This is interesting story. When did Australia got plastic banknotes? Current one should last forever.

And it is good thing. Corporate takeover of USA will not help anyone but billionaires.

May be we should stop voting for “big” parties. If we have a diversity in parament, it will me much harder to buy them all (or may be simpler)

Just a folder + syncthing. no extra infra is necessary + easy to backup.

Already done, look for research about Type 2 diabetes and sweeteners. Sugar is better.

If SA paid these guys for batteries not Tesla, they may survive.
