You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

I live near the Welcome To Sydney sign in the bush to the north. I have the same feeling whenever I go south, even though I'm technically in the metropolitan area. There's so much that people there are used to, from which I am now totally removed!

Australia's dispute with Türkiye over COP31 hosting rights could see both miss out Ethiopia will host the UN's COP32 climate summit in 2027, but next year's COP31 remains a contest between Türkiye and Australia.

Trump: "We have Darth Vader. You know Darth Vader, right? Darth Vader is a man who is sitting -- is that Darth? Stand up please. Does everybody know -- they call him Darth Vader, I call him a fine man. But he's cutting Democrat priorities and they're never gonna get them back."
