@caity You can play a round with everyone (or create a practice round with no timer). @altbot

@teddie@bne.social The image displays a mobile application interface with a dark green background. At the top, there is a black status bar showing the network provider "Vodafone AU WiFi," the time "5:43 pm," and a battery level of "19%." The main title reads "vs Everyone" in white text on a green background. Below this, there is a large green button with white text that says "Play A Round vs Everyone," accompanied by a subtitle explaining the feature. The next section is labeled "Vs Everyone Game History" in white text on a green background. It shows a globe icon, a "24th percentile" text, and a five-star rating with only one star filled in. The bottom of the screen features a navigation bar with icons for "Games," "Rating," "Leaders," "vs Everyone," and "Practice," with the "vs Everyone" icon highlighted in green.

A partial recount will look at all the first preference ballot papers for Wilson and Daniel, as well as all informal ballot papers.

A partial recount is more limited than a full recount, which would require the AEC to complete a full distribution of preferences.

The AEC said a full recount was not necessary in its view.

"We are satisfied that there was a very high degree of rigour throughout the distribution of preferences process," it said in a statement. #auspol

@Digital_Archivist Possibly, but there were irregularities (claiming "errors" and "votes moving to and fro in the final stages of the count") and the 100 auto recount was when electorate population sizes were smaller. Will be interesting to see what happens... fingers crossed

@Digital_Archivist Maybe; though I wonder if AEC will grant her recount request?

@ash I used to use Pocket but switched to Instapaper. Latter gives free highlighting of up to five articles a month and has better free font selection. Downside is Pocket was good at providing suggested articles to read.

@treleanor alt-text explains the bi-focal lens i got. Maybe standard these days; not sure.

The lower part is for reading and only by photographing into the light can the thin line be sense. It doesn't go straight across; rather like a patch from my thumb end up and a little before the bridge going down.
