@wildwhitehorses I doubt any state has ever had a leader worse than Joh Bjelke-Petersen.

> Good thing we have Liberals in power now who are on the side of small business

It’s a BCC project. Liberals have been in power since its inception.

@No1 @Rivalarrival yes, please. Always remove the si tracking bs.

@brisbane It’s supposed to be winter!! (Or at least, was just yesterday.) Darn weather was up over 30 degrees.

Run’s 24.1 km total, took about 2:10 of running time, plus a fair few pauses to make sure I was still on track.

@ada wow that’s stunning! Way better than any of the shots I got.

@SubArcticTundra ha! Yeah that’s a common refrain when non-Brisbaners (especially Americans) see photos of Riverfire. They’re not actually flying anywhere near that close to buildings—they go over the river.

@Pistcow not confirmed that this will be tolled, but it’s going to start from the end of one existing toll road which, yes, was built by a mix of public & private funds and is now privately-owned and tolled. I expect this will be the same.

But my objection is *primarily* about the fact that it’s being built at all, rather than about who’s paying for it, per se. Even if both are bad.

@brisbane this announcement comes right in the middle of widening Gympie into an 8-lane monstrosity through this section. It needs a *serious* road diet. One 24/7 bus lane in each direction, a bike lane in each direction, and it would *still* be a 4 lane major road. But instead, we get peak-hour-only bus lanes and you can navigate some winding back streets (give way every time you cross *any* road!) if you wanna cycle to Chermside.

@coaxil Nikon D7500, some on a 55–200 mm f/4.0–5.6 lens, others on the 18–55 mm f/3.5–5.6 kit lens my older D3100 came with.

@coaxil I posted to this community from my Mastodon if you wanna go find that, but also here’s a direct link to the Pixelfed posts I *wanted* to link:

@brisbane I couldn’t figure out how to get them to post directly from Pixelfed to Lemmy how I wanted, unfortunately, so I’m posting a link to that from here.

And it also doesn’t seem that my double x-post to pics worked. 🤷‍♂️

@trk conveniently, I only noticed the fog because I went outside to bring in the washing, and discovered it was *soaked*.

@trk I went out last night at an unreasonable hour to go take photos. Took my good camera though, not the smartphone, so will have to wait to process them before sharing.

@Spitzspot yeah I dunno why exactly the Pitch Drop experiment gets the label “longest continually-running experiment”. Probably some kind of technicality about what exactly counts as “experiment” and “continually-running”. There are some even older than Beal’s listed on Wikipedia, depending on how you define it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_experiment
