Peter Dutton ramps up nuclear power push and claims Labor down ‘renewable rabbit hole’
  • This is the way.

    Along with flooring the accelerator, and hearing him scream like a little girl.

  • Peter Dutton ramps up nuclear power push and claims Labor down ‘renewable rabbit hole’
  • Talk about being down a rabbit hole...

    Voldemort telling the LNP think-tank (IPA) that nuclear is the natural progression from coal.

    I foresee an extended period in Opposition, for these forward-thinkers!

  • Sporting codes’ gambling revenue is not sacrosanct. A business model that relies on causing harm must end | Zoe Daniel
  • Gambling sites, outlets and apps are straight up parasites, with absolutely no care for those whose lives they help to ruin.

    Pokies are a complete blight. If these pubs and clubs can't survive without them, then perhaps they should close, then.

    I have zero problem with much heavier regulation on these vampires.

  • Millions of dollars in fines to punish online misinformation under new draft bill
  • That sucks. The government could be raking it in from Sky News and The Australian.

  • Millions of dollars in fines to punish online misinformation under new draft bill
  • Cool, they've found a way to extract money out of the Murdoch press? I'm all for it!

  • Getting banned after calling out a power hungry mod.
  • Start a star trek server. Take the power away from them if that's what you want

  • Should I quit my job?
  • Moving home is a big ask. Clearly, you like the place as you bought it.

    So, maybe asking your management if more WFH is an option. The worst they can say is no, and you will have your answer. From there, if they say yes, you have more time with your son. If they say no, you thank them for considering your request, keep your head down while at work, and quietly look for something more suitable to your lifestyle needs.

    It may take a couple of weeks, or it may take a few months. Get paid while you are looking, and do not work until you have that signed employment contract in your hands!

  • Why all of my socks are the same
  • All of my work socks are like this.

    I make my partner crazy by randomly rejecting pairs when I hang them out, as if I'm looking for something specific that she can't see. 😈

  • Queenslanders asked to weigh in on tough new laws for dangerous dog owners
  • Politicians said something. Typically doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

  • Solar panels with Origin?
  • Today was 46.5.

    Even on a shitty rainy day, it still pulls 20.

  • Australia imposes travel bans and sanctions against three men over MH17
  • The men that will never leave Russia. Go team!

  • Why is the indigenous voice to Parliament so controversial?
  • Neither did removing the whites from the farms in Zimbabwe.

  • AITA for asking a LLM to do things that are supposed to be my job?
  • NTA

    You're giving Chatty their reason for being. Carry on.

  • Why is the indigenous voice to Parliament so controversial?
  • I think - and I'm open to being corrected - that percentages aside, the fact that the Aboriginal people have been dispossessed of their lands, enslaved, had their children taken, and been denied voting rights... I do believe that wanting to right wrongs is a good aim.

    I honestly don't know if this voice to parliament is good or not, because I'm not sure what it will achieve. If it is in order to better protect traditional and sacred places, then let's go. However, if it allows removing landowners from their farms etc, then that's a hard no from me.

    As I said though, I'm not sure what the final aim is here. Hopefully in the next 6 months, someone will make it clear for me.

  • iPhone 5G standalone and reliability in the countryside?
  • My understanding is that 5G runs on really high frequencies. These high frequencies don't have penetrative abilities through buildings, and are very limited in range compared to lower frequency generations, like 3G and some 4G frequencies.

    The other problem you may have is that your provider just may not have infrastructure out that far, or even access to other telco towers.

    Definitely try to force a 4G connection if the phone will let you.

  • Air Force commander to take on hackers as Australia’s first cybersecurity boss
  • Cybersecurity Boss needs to be a politically agnostic position. They cannot be swayed by political lobbying.

    An Airforce Commander is a good choice. He already has 30 years of defending our borders, so extending that will hopefully be right up his alley.

  • AITA for buying my wife chocolate?
  • Yeah, too much chocolate, I reckon. That makes people a little cray-cray.

  • AITA for buying my wife chocolate?
  • Boom chika wah waaah!

    Green M&M is hot, with very long legs!

  • AITA for buying my wife chocolate?
  • Man, I'd shut the hell up and see how long I can milk it for!

  • AITA for buying my wife chocolate?
  • I'll go and get Elon.

    OP, NTA.
