HEADLINES:


Among the tragic headlines from Nepal, one of the missing Australians has been found in Tibet.
Pill testing will be rolled out at New South Wales music festivals from next month, following a year-long trial.
A 16-year-old boy has told a Sydney court he planned to bomb the Sydney Opera House on the Sydney Marathon day in 2024, after being radicalised through extremist content on Tiktok.


Phones, laptops and gaming consoles are about to get more expensive, and the AI boom is to blame.


Scientists might have got something fundamental wrong about our universe, and a new NASA telescope just launched to find out.
And if you've ever done the maths on what a child actually costs, this might make you jealous...

Australia has just passed one trillion dollars in government debt, and combined state, territory and federal debt is set to hit two trillion by the end of the decade. On this episode of The Quicky, we ask why nobody seems worried: from ballooning state budgets since COVID to the "free" election promises being made ahead of the Victorian and NSW polls. Experts from the Grattan Institute and the Centre for Independent Studies explain why debt feels abstract to voters, and why the bill always seems to land later.
