Really disappointing another council has decided to scrap rentable e-bikes and scooters.

Tonight Stephen Jolly and his gang voted to ban lime bikes from Yarra council, after banning e-scooters. Although Yarra council is small, it seems like it's getting all it's bike lanes and infrastructure ripped out and now e-bikes too, which are really useful last-mile connectors to public transport.

Stephen Jolly is stain on Melbourne.

Why are there plans for new gas power plants in Victoria? Aren't we meant to be moving away from fossil fuels? Is this due to data centres?

Was just riding an E class when a tone played before an automated announcement. Usually, (some) pre-recorded announcements have a chime that goes something like din dinn, din dinnnnn.

This one I've never heard before and it sounded more like an airport boarding call: do doo doooo doooooo, before advising bikes can't be taken on trams.

The new jingle sounded more pleasant, if not a little harder to hear and a little more generic. Has anyone heard this yet?

I moved into a place that had some tacky LED strip that I've taken down to put an omniglow strip in. The old LED strip was in a metal bracket that is like 1mm too small for the Omniglow to fit in.

So I tried mounting it first with the adhesive on the back of the strip, but that didn't work. I tried cleaning the plain wood before using VHB 3m adhesive, but this just falls off as well. After googling, it appears that adhesive doesn't really work with plain wood.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how I can mount my strip?
