Still a small bank. I wonder if Commonwealth, Westpac or Nab will break ranks and implement it.

It would have been nice if AI had given a little background on Bendigo. How big are they? How important are they in the grand scheme of Aussie banking? The rest of us outside the country have no idea.

Uber probably won't be long for this world anyway. They've trimmed their losses to "only" about $645 million in the last quarter, so they're losing only over two billion dollars a year. I hate them so much that I intend to buy Didi Chuxing stock as soon as their IPO is offered sometime next year. If Didi is good enough for Apple, they're good enough for me.

I want a foldable iPad, so I can read magazines and books the way they should be read, two pages side by side. Make it so, Apple.

Hollywood is almost completely out of ideas. So, bring back past successes, make movies out of comics, movies out of TV shows, and TV shows out of movies. It's not a "remake", which sounds bad, it's a REBOOT! So hip!

People tend to forget that this is an age-old phenomenon. Heck, when Amazing Stories originally aired, it was paired with an updated version of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, bringing back a show that had been cancelled 20 years earlier.

In fact, some would say that complainers are completely out of ideas because they keep dredging up this same complaint year after year, decade after decade.

Good thing, because with the massive aging population it will soon be too unsafe to be on the roads otherwise and those aging would be cut off from being able to lead a normal life for their remaining years.

I'm less concerned with the aging population than the burgeoning idiot population. I can't walk a single block without seeing some fool breaking the law with their driving, often egregiously. The sooner we get humans out of the driver's seat, the better. One day, people will look back at cars with drivers the way we look back at programming computers with punch cards.
