Why are hotels so expensive? A new lawsuit alleges that travel website Expedia is rigging the entire market, exploiting its leverage over 80% of all online bookings to inflate hotel prices in every booking channel by 15-30%. It's an economy-wide price fixing scheme, not unlike what Amazon does to retail. /

Didn’t really need another sleepless night after New Year’s Eve but again, it was worth it. There will be many amazing photos of Aurora Australis, far better than these, but for my first attempt and being so far north, I am beyond stoked. Time for some Coffee ☕️

I heard some pretty horrible news about a death on a farm. People tried to get through to 000 but could not connect, and the signal kept failing. The shutdown of 3g has been terrible for business, but it also might have contributed to its first death.

But the cows….
Conor O Leary@conorcoleary29 Nov 2024
Oil and Gas Methane emissions from just 1 oil production area of the globe, at 440 tonnes per hour, equals the methane production of 32 Billion Cows. There are only 1 Billion Cows on earth. And oil doesn't eat grass.
