@JGODYT @F8TL_BaDSeeD How about a post on OCE ranked servers.... 😰 if the animals don't kill us the wait to find a game will

@RavenSoftware Fix OCE ranked servers. Normal BR mode loads straight away. So many want to play but waiting 30mins to find a game means noone is playing it.

[Finchy @ampfinch]

@CallofDuty_ANZ Yo fix the Oce ranked servers first. 200plus ping is unplayable

Sad Day for Australian Architecture. I got to visit his Lake Weyba House, such a great interpretation of climate-responsive architecture. He will be missed but has inspired a generation of architects. https://t.co/IuPDBau1fF via @ArchitectureAU

One of my favourite examples of how people react to economic incentives:

Architectural tax avoidance👇
🇬🇧 UK : tax on windows
🇻🇳 Vietnam: tax on frontage
🇫🇷 France: tax on floors (roof exempted)
🇧🇷 Brazil: tax on church construction (when finished)

September: Children should stay in school rather than striking over the climate.

October: Speeches like these give children unnecessary anxiety over the climate.

December: Please come and pick your children up from school because the air is poison.
