Nobody’s claimed it yet and it’s only a matter of time.
On that note. .melbourne? why not something normal like .melb, better yet, why not have the whole state use .vic.

Briongloid@aussie.zoneto Australian Politics@aussie.zone•Independent MP to push for lowering of Australian voting age31·2 months agoI’m inclined to support 18 as the age of full legal responsibility in society, which is why I favour moving the voting age to 17.
In Australia, adults in prison who are expected to be released during the upcoming electoral term are allowed to vote, as they will return to society during that term. I think a similar principle should apply to 17-year-olds: they will be 18 for the majority of the term being voted on and should have a say in the government that will represent them when they are an adult.
The average 17-year-old is about 17.5 years old at any point in the year. This means that, on average, they miss out on roughly 2.5 to 3 years of democratic representation if they cannot vote in the election preceding their 18th birthday. While age thresholds are somewhat arbitrary, they are necessary for consistency in law in balancing different rates of maturity uniformly. And although many 16-year-olds may be as intellectually capable as adults, the difference in maturity and development year-on-year at these younger ages are still significant.
I believe the case for including 17-year-olds is much stronger than for 16-year-olds. The average 17-year-old misses out on about 30 months of representation, compared to around 18 months for the average 16-year-old. A meaningful difference.
TL;DR: For these reasons, I support allowing 17-year-olds to vote, on behalf of their adult selves, for the government that will represent them for most of the term, once they turn 18.
Same with Poker Face, S02 is 12 EPs.
More before the last scene, when he would monologue about his apartment.
The CGI is surprisingly good in Fight Club, for a 26yr old movie from the '90s.
I agree the onus needs to be on the prosecution, but I don’t believe there is reasonable doubt that she didn’t intend to do it, what has made this case so fascinating is how bad she was at hiding her intentions.

Recently had an elderly neighbour die, all his belongings turfed onto the street for collection including Narnia books and other long owned sentimental books/VHS. Had to collect it before it got rained on or collected to go to the op shop that was only 200m away.

I’ve been an enthusiastic Android user for nearly 15 years now, this Google change is pretty scary.
Installing apps through FDroid is no more “sideloading” than installing a game through Steam.
