  • If America descends into fascism, does Australia just grin and bear it?

    Jump

  • Grin and bear it?

    No we let our politicians slowly put in place the conditions for fascism.

    Metadata retention

    Assistance and access bill

    Identify and disrupt bill

    Age verification bullshit

    Anti protest laws.

    Pretty soon you won't be able to disagree with libor / laborel here either.

    I bet that the fascist tech laws will be used to silence and punish government critics.

  • Australians soon facing age checks when viewing adult websites

    Jump

  • Thanks everyone for voting for the e-karen.

  • Don't blame migrants for the housing crisis, blame the millionaires

    Jump

  • I think that the owner class of 1%ers deliberately stir up these racist dickheads with the express purpose of stifling all reasonable discourse about population growth / migration levels.

  • Kia announces EV5 prices, offering up to 329 miles of range

    Jump

  • I call them JUHBs. Jacked up hatchbacks.

    All the interior space of a hatch back, but with worse handling and efficiency due to being pointlessly higher off the ground.

  • American Millennials Are Dying at an Alarming Rate

    Jump

  • The capitalists have a work around if the populace does not produce enough consumers. They simply lobby governments to import them from other countries.

  • Corporatism drug

    Jump

  • Most offices I have seen have really upped their coffee game since the pandemic. Presumably to encourage everyone back in.

    Gone are the days of freeze dried instant. Forget those horrid nestle pod machines.

    Full automatic espresso machines are the standard now. Being drugged for productivity.

  • It's 99.9% effective at reducing fascism!

    Jump

  • It wears off though. During 2020, I noticed a few acquaintances I knew from raving back in the day fell right down the rightwing misinformation hole.

  • ‘Long may she reign’: How powerful is Gina Rinehart?

    Jump

  • That's a given. But are any of her children ready for that ? I guess once the control of the billions is in their hands they will do their best to follow in her steps.

  • ‘Long may she reign’: How powerful is Gina Rinehart?

    Jump

  • I wonder what her current succession plan is.

  • Productivity summit ends with treasurer signalling tax reforms

    Jump

  • It works even better when truncated.

    The productivity commission has broadly agreed to increase the tax

  • I genuinely can't wait for Mobile Linux to become a thing

    Jump

  • I have the Google camera app installed but not the photos app. The only thing is the button inside the camera app that shows a thumbnail of the last picture you took doesn't work as it's just a shortcut to the photos app.

    Everything else about the Google camera app seems to work on Graphene. I didn't give it network permissions either.

  • It slaps tho

    Jump

  • I think there might be more flexibility there, but certainly all the ones I have seen are in a bun yes.

  • It slaps tho

    Jump

  • Did you know that over here in Perth the bunnings sausage sizzle comes in hot dog buns?

  • Road safety data shows pedestrian deaths have increased by almost 50 per cent since 2021

    Jump

  • I'm sure someone will be along to argue that correlation is not causation on this, but I'll be surprised if it's not mostly due to the average vehicle's front height now being above the average persons chest.

    The other day on my bike ride in to the Perth CBD I encountered 3 separate pairs of motorcycle police with radar guns on the PSP (PSP= principal shared path, a completely separated bike / pedestrian path with no car traffic for those abroad). Presumably they were on the lookout for people on e-scooters exceeding 25km/h, which if caught get fine and their scooter confiscated permanently with no recourse.

    Meanwhile in the middle of the CBD where there are lots of pedestrians we have vehicles running red lights, failing to give way to pedestrians when turning at intersections, ballbags in a jacked up 4WDs complete with 5 post bullbars and all of the emissions controls removed running around with complete impunity.

  • FTC Sues Gym Chains for Making It Hard to Cancel Memberships

    Jump

  • Yep see plenty of people doing that.

    I also find it too sweaty but sometimes you trade that off vs listening to what ever music the gym is playing.

  • Kate Chaney: By increasing the GST to 15%, we could make the tax system fairer for younger Australians

    Jump

  • Oh fuck off Kate.

    Any time the "blue ribbon" teals talk about what is good for the economy we must remember that to them "the economy" = rich arseholes yachts. Their constituents are wealthy and economically conservative, and in no way want things to become fair.

    So raising the GST will be worse for everyone who works for a living and have negligible effect on those who have accumulated wealth.

  • Every support thread on Reddit is literally this now

    Jump

  • That's what I've noticed.

    I initially used power delete suite which got maybe half of mine.

    Then I went and started manually editing them with random words.

    Then started deleting.

    I'm very sure that some sub's have restored deleted comments. Amusingly sometimes with the random words instead of the original.

    The only reason I never deleted my account is so that I can go back and mess up or delete stuff as it comes back. Fairly easy to find your comments with a search of your username.

    Surprised they haven't just locked the ability to edit or delete older stuff. It's not like it ever really gets deleted, just removed from public view.

  • How do you manage private phones with work necessities?

    Jump

  • I have a second cheap second hand phone for work only purposes.

    My employer has their device attestation set to only allow intune / Microsoft products to sign in if you are running stock android. Graphene nogo.

  • I wish there was an uninhabited, autonomous zone for folks who want "freedom" to play out their dangerous ideas away from the rest of society

    Jump

  • MDMA legalised there?
