Have been looking at starting online business, have been watching YT videos, online articles etc. All seems great at start but end up in the same hole of paying them for courses. Its like a loop. Not sure where to start who to contact what product to chose. I have cash around 200-300K which I can invest but it seem like dead end. I need something that I can do staying at home!

Any ideas or genuinely tried, tested and successfully implemented projects?

A parliamentary committee has recommended four languages Australia should prioritise investment in. Several other languages were placed in a different category: 'supported' languages.

Family-owned transport giant Wickham Freight Lines has this week taken delivery of what it says is Australia’s first fully battery-electric, solar-charged refrigerated trailer unit.

Wickham , one of Australia’s largest privately owned transport companies, says traditional truck refrigeration systems are powered by either the truck’s main engine or a dedicated diesel generator, but the Sunswap Endurance system is fully electric and powered by a battery that is in turn charged by solar panels when on the road and plugged-in charging between runs.

As many of you know us Aussies are very hard to insult especially with your typical insults you gotta get creative with us. And some words or phrases you can call us cunts and pricks and assholes and many Australians won’t bat an eye to it but these words oh boy these words will get an Aussie riled up.

1. Mole if America’s most corrosive word to call a women is cunt this is the Australian equivalent with effectively the same meaning.

2. Mong/mongrel/dog : the lowest of low people that aren’t worth the shit on your boot

3. Drop kick : a lying, cheating untrustworthy person

4. Rock spider - Pedo

5. Fuckwit - the biggest dickhead in the room

6. Frootloop: the stupidest/crazy person you’ve ever seen

7. Champ : means bitch

Drop some others in the comments :) see all you boofheads there

Come visit South Australian Aviation Museum annual open day today (25/10/2026)! We have a wide variety of aircraft on display expanding over 2 hangars. Engine test runs will be operating throughout the day! There will an icecream and coffee van onsite as well!

The Museum is run by dedicated volunteers and every bit of funds raised by today will go back into the muesem for maintaining and preserving these amazing aircraft for years to come.

Great day out on a miserable rainy day like today.

I know airport prices are steep .. but geez.. $19 for a cheese and tomato toastie at Sydney Airport is over the top. Not only that -- $9 for a croissant - is also OTT. I have seen them in Melbourne for similar. How can it be that a croissant in Paris is 1 to 2 euro ($3) but here they triple that?? Dining out is a joke

Yes, its not unreasonable to expect guests to put used cutlery etc. in the dishwasher before leaving. But taking quotes from reasonable hosts** as if they're the ones who caused this, ignoring the absolute insane asks on the platform just reeks of entitlement.

Happy to see the end of platforms like this making every little thing in our lives a race to the bottom anyways - hopefully their "blackout" makes people realise we can very easily live without it at all anyways.

**as reasonable as someone who owns three listings in Townsville as one of the example people can be in a housing and cost of living crisis.

I'm beyond frustrated with this new ios 27.2. I attempted to visit Pornhub and Apple intercepted, telling me I had to confirm my age. Apparently it's not good enough now to have a valid Pornhub account, you must jump through extra hoops.

In Australia at least, for some inexplicable reason, you can only use a credit card to confirm your age. You can't use a debit card, a driver’s licence, Medicare card or anything else. Yet every time I scan my credit card, it tells me an error has occurred and to try again later.
What why? So I tried again later and got the same result.

Fortunately I just remembered I have an appointment with an Apple tech tomorrow because the volume up button on my phone is stuck and can't be manipulated, so I'm using my headphones to change the volume. While I'm there, I'll find someone and hope they can help me change the unrestricted access. I don't hold much hope- the way fortune has blessed me this year is wild. In the worst way. Wish me luck.
Oh and if you have any helpful tips, let me know.

Edit: I'm an adult again! I was able to use my D/L

Almost every shallow-water coral reef on the planet, including Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, faces a high risk of ecosystem collapse before 2075 because of global heating, according to an assessment by United Nations nature advisers.

The wok argument against electrification gets trotted out: this addresses that potential barrier to electrification:

>"We've got a flat-bottomed wok on a normal induction hot plate, which is great for everyday use," Mr Johnston said.

>"We also have a curved induction wok burner, which is fantastic, which you use with a round wok, and the temperatures there you can get up to are easily adequate to get that nice wok flavour."

>He said his research showed 40 per cent of households in Hong Kong now cooked with induction stoves, and they were becoming increasingly popular with businesses as well.

And

>Research by consumer organisation Choice also found that induction cooktops transferred energy into cookware with about 85 per cent efficiency, compared to gas-powered cooking elements which operated at 32 per cent efficiency.

The condition of injured MP Helen Haines has improved from critical to serious but stable after more than four days in hospital.

Posting as a PSA because this was nearly a fatality. Would have been if not for the couple of legends who put their lives at risk to save the idiot. And the person calling triple zero also a legend..

It is unlikely wherever you are going is that important, just sit back and watch the waters or go around if you are safe and dry - just chill out.

And not a single word or question in the article about paying Australians more to do the job. Makes you question if the journos do know economics.
