I tried claiming it. Now, I&#39;m ex-IT and been online since B4 the bloody Internet (as in, before ISPs, when you had to know the network&#39;s phone number :0).<br/><br/>Yet trying to get that $300 did my head in too. <br/><br/>Took 20 minutes of verification steps until it failed. Because, I think, Medicare wasn&#39;t linked in MyGOV. It knew that but didn&#39;t tell me. STILL haven&#39;t felt inclined to have another go yet because it&#39;s so faarken exhausting to even think about.<br/><br/>Why wasn&#39;t Medicare linked?<br/><br/>Medicare WAS linked in MyGov until one day a year or so ago, logging in via KeyPass failed to authenticate. Over and over. MyGov IT helpdesk gave up troubleshooting and recreated my account, which required re-linking everything... again (Naturally I put that off, after all the hassle).<br/><br/>But still it failed to login to the recreated account. Eventually deduced that maybe MyGov had implemented a login analytic that tagged my KeyPass auto-typing as malicious activity. <br/><br/>Sooooooo dumbed down the bloody password to one I could actually type with fingers while not losing track halfway. The KeyPass password was random and really long. <br/><br/>After all that, never got around to re-linking Medicare, not even wanting to think about MyGov ever again. Knowing full well how impossible that would be. <br/><br/>END OF RANT */ 2024-12-17T01:22:05Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2zkkg65us73jdq4waygjr3h7x7pz2vg4waevumf4j94rtmwq87agzyrxmvk0dd4q7rl4fyklymxmsws3v53ydh656v5f8753zahfzd4jcx86073m Where Rex Patrick has advice for Labor to be that #Labor Government we thought we had voted for. <br/><br/>#AusPol<br/> <img src="https://o.mastodon.au/media_attachments/files/113/664/402/056/362/088/original/4511bff630007b4e.png"> <br/> 2024-12-16T20:35:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0httcf4qk9slwvpuv36c28nc72z7v8zstd0y9l36p6t5w4getfaszyrxmvk0dd4q7rl4fyklymxmsws3v53ydh656v5f8753zahfzd4jcx2xsv9e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf3xdjv0mswxmz43epucnr3xac02kzpj8rvaq4gwyvh3kxkhnwkrsawy5f8'>nevent1q…y5f8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>For the staff room no doubt.

The Coalition, the Greens and other senators can support them at any time”;<br/><br/>Opposition leader Peter Dutton had flagged a clash over the laws at the election, warning that the government’s environment agenda would harm mining;<br/><br/>“The prime minister has been bullied by the mining and logging lobby again. [Mining magnate] Gina Rinehart and the logging lobby seem to have more influence than the rest of the country,” Greens environment spokeswoman Sarah Hanson-Young said. 2024-11-27T21:36:34Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspll2gzx3tjrq84hf46ex6yrsmsmmnwd6se7w8r3rl2vfgceh24sqzyrxmvk0dd4q7rl4fyklymxmsws3v53ydh656v5f8753zahfzd4jcxxs7e53 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyydqf5s525ufvnwqwg8pnvj465ftphj7yul8c9df7vszwnn6fx4cjvrz69'>nevent1q…rz69</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>They still cut the bite and suck out the poison on sillier TV shows 😱 2024-11-26T21:04:10Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqszfar2aregahl8mmlm8hmam057qwefcm6zjtzn9t7zs045s7za2lczyrxmvk0dd4q7rl4fyklymxmsws3v53ydh656v5f8753zahfzd4jcxrecvfw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsthfpysczzavq9c56wat08734drm5pq8vjlrjm043vgayrvx0zt8su5dtvs'>nevent1q…dtvs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Indulge us.

It&#39;s an escape, guys, a thriller, not family therapy, or a treatise on personal relationships. <br/><br/>#TheDayoftheJackal #TV<br/> <img src="https://o.mastodon.au/media_attachments/files/113/462/183/899/107/197/original/4898883ec5d01d75.png"> <br/> 2024-11-11T03:29:49Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0jn9t00s8xp0lass3tpld2u8lxzznsaytpjlh4tx0a9tgkcr2eugzyrxmvk0dd4q7rl4fyklymxmsws3v53ydh656v5f8753zahfzd4jcxzucwrf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq8w0hnnumq6ahzkm7u8hjhtqlea5jdm0d0kmnfrzask35qj8gurghaup25'>nevent1q…up25</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I use to buy Vogels (circa 1960s) in a small compact unsliced loaf.
