As an Australian, I would like to introduce you to a word more offensive than “fuck” while just as versatile, and that is “Cunt”.

…it’s the algorithm, and not putting every second video behind a member paywall.

Microsoft spent billions and even bought Nokia to try and be a 3rd player. The problem wasn’t their commitment, it was a lack of developers releasing apps for their OS. Without the millions of apps available on iOS and Android, people weren’t buying the phones.

Very. When I want to get off, I don’t want my Mum involved.

Why? What’s wrong with Authy? I use it, Proton and Bitwarden. I could consolidate everything into Proton, but I’m concerned about having everything with one vendor.

Interesting, learnt something new. Thanks.

To be clear, Australia is not perfect by a long stretch, but our politicians are much more discrete in their desire for enrichment, we also have a lot more guard rails in place to prevent it, while they are in office.

While there is obviously big business trying to influence government decisions, that will always happen regardless of who we vote in. My point is, if the person you vote for isn’t clearly concerned with improving the lives of their constituents you should absolutely fuck them off and not continually vote for them for decades.

As an Australian I am constantly amazed that no matter how racist, homophobic, greedy, stupid, selfish and blatantly self-serving America’s government representatives are, you continue to vote for them.

We arent so committed to the red vs blue ideology. If I vote for blue one term and they don’t perform I’ll vote red or green or independent next term.

Unfortunately, the way things are going, your vote might not make a difference for much longer.

The woman in the red dress, isn’t she the Alaskan senator that voted yes then told everyone else to vote no?

Just an excuse to charge more for them. Cant think of any useful reason to have a screen on the case when you have your phone with you.

This seems like a pointless article, any country can cut an undersea cable if they wanted to, Russia does it regularly. Just because they made a purpose built machine to do it doesn’t really “shake up” anything, it just makes it easier/ quicker for them to do it instead of dragging an anchor or using explosives.

Of course now, if the cable is perfectly severed we’ll know exactly who did it.

Stick it to the man! Stop learning! /s

The latest Indiana Jones game, because it’s too damn expensive. It’s normally $120 AUD and has been discounted to $95 AUD. When it’s below $50, then I’ll consider it.

Of course, we could all be living in the matrix and nothing is real.

What is “zero” exactly? Scientists CAN prove unequivocally that the earth is a globe, there is no uncertainty and it is not an hypothesis.

Assuming “zero” is the number of people who don’t believe in an hypothesis, then I agree with you. Despite the overwhelming evidence there are people that believe the world is flat.

The beauty of science is you don’t have to believe in it for it to be real or true.

If it’s not provable by science, then I don’t believe it.

Yes, but not a massive amount. I pay annually and it works out to about $7-8 a month for 50mbps of bandwidth and unlimited downloads. Then use *arr apps and sabnzbd to manage everything.

Why torrent when you can use newsgroups? No need to seed, just download and done. Haven’t torrented for 10 years.

Xi has just been handed Taiwan on a platter. As long as he doesn’t endanger the semiconductor factories the US rely on, Trump isn’t going to lift a finger to help them… unless they sign over control of said semiconductor factories, in a “joint” partnership.

Run Home Assistant, add the integration, create a dashboard for your phone/tablet, never use the app again.
