Young girl 'unresponsive' after being run over by ute on popular Queensland island
  • Nah, I'm good.

    I don't care if beaches are roads. My point is that beaches should not be roads.

    I was over on Moreton Island recently and walking south of the resort. Didn't see any of your claimed warning signage. Just utes and 4wds tearing the shit out of the beach from the water line up to where the trees start. A beautiful beach in a beautiful spot away from all the crowds but I've got to be watching my kids like a hawk to make sure some idiot doesn't kill one of them and then try to blame me for daring to walk with my kids down to the sand dunes.

    I don't care if it's legal, it shouldn't be. Why does everything have to be turned into yet more space exclusively for vehicles. Especially pristine beaches.

  • It could, but beaches aren't roads. What if someone was sunbaking or laying on the sand in an area they thought was safe? Are they allowed to be.run over because they weren't keeping a close eye on every vehicle movement in the vicinity?

    In my experience, vehicles don't stick to any one particular "lane" on a beach so allowing them to use it as a road means the beach is now entirely unusable for anyone who is not in a vehicle.

    You shouldn't have to post a guard to ensure a member of your family is able to enjoy a beach without fear of someone in a vehicle killing them.

    A LifeFlight spokesperson says the rear and front wheels of a ute rolled over the girl at low speed on K'gari before her father performed CPR on her.

    Vehicles should be banned from driving on beaches. Change my mind.

    Astana confirms that Cavendish is back for 2024
  • I hope his season goes well, but I also feel like in 100 years time there will be ghost stories telling of the Ghost of Cav, haunting the TdF peloton, searching for that last elusive stage win.

  • James Hoffmann: The $20,000 Espresso Machine, The Manument: The Swiss Watch Of Lever Espresso Machines -
  • I was hoping he was going to measure the claimed temperature accuracy, since a big part of it was the ability to switch it on and make an espresso straight away.

    The stated hope was that this technology would be able to trickle down, but he also provided examples of extremely cheap machines that could already do the same thing (but that produce shitty coffee) so I'm assuming the technology he's hoping trickles down is the ability to quickly and accurately heat water?

  • McDonald's worker makes desperate plea to Aussie customers
  • Probably the same people that stand in queue for 20 minutes but refuse to glace at the menu to figure out what they might want until they're actively being served and are now holding up the massive line behind them.

    End Old man rant.

  • damn "next generation"
  • I think they're probably on track with then"what", but are fucking up the "how" with the current BS being peddled by the external consultants and "thought leaders".

    As is tradition.
