Course and features

The stream rises on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range and Australian Alps, approximately 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) southwest of Batlow. The stream flows generally north by west towards the town of Tarcutta where the creek is crossed by the Hume Motorway. From this point the river continues generally north by west towards the city of Wagga Wagga and reaches its confluence with the Murrumbidgee River, approximately 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) southeast of Oura.[2] The creek descends 435 metres (1,427 ft) over its 111-kilometre (69 mi) course.[1]

gollark: > The Internet Computer is a decentralized cloud computing platform that will host secure software and a new breed of open internet services. It uses a strong cryptographic consensus protocol to safely replicate computations over a peer-to-peer network of (potentially untrusted) compute nodes, possibly overlayed with many virtual subnetworks (sometimes called shards). Wasm’s advantageous properties made it an obvious choice for representing programs running on this platform. We also liked the idea of not limiting developers to just one dedicated platform language, but making it potentially open to “all of ’em.”How is *that* meant to work?
gollark: ... "internet computer"? Oh bees.
