"ð" is the letter for the "th" sound in some alphabets like Faroese. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eth

Trans people always have the greatest insight into these issues. Thank you!

A 16 or 17 year-old earning 90$/day shouldn't pay ANY tax IMHO. As a teenager I and my classmates weren't using roads, the hospital system, the courts, or most of the facilities that public funds go towards anywhere near the extent that we use them as adults. I hope I can pay it all forward when I get a full time gig given how much public money I've been directly involved in spending.

Reddit was malmanaged by a money-hungry C-suite and investors. Blaming the downfall of reddit solely on the users is naive.

There need to be alternative modes of transport that are accessible so that elderly and incompetent drivers aren't forced to engage in society via the roads.

Tell me about it. I've fixed my fair share of leaky roofs and sometimes you just make an educated guess and hope. I hate getting up into the ceiling but sometimes it's the only way to trace the water from the end point to the source. With tiled roofs however, it can be nice and obvious with something like a cracked tile or a tile that's shifted out of place.

Tiled roofs can be easy to fix especially if you have spare tiles, but you can also do repairs with silicone and/or flashtac. You'll find that the two main difficulties are accessing the roof and finding the source of the leak. If you're handy and willing to take on the (not insignificant) risk of getting on your roof you could consider doing it yourself, but otherwise you should get a professional to have a look at it.

😆 Western Australians wish Perth was the capital. At least you know your Australian cities
