You'd have to say Australians have it pretty lucky when it comes to the weather, but that doesn't stop locals having a big old whinge when the temperature gets a little chilly. 

People in the city of Sydney have been having a rather excellent run with warm weather all throughout autumn (or fall, as our North American friends like to call it), but a cold change smacked them in the face on Monday. Yep, winter is definitely coming.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
