If they have to build it, they should be forced to build it in Queenstown. Their only allowed water supply should be the Queen River.

They should be forced to neutralise the toxic waste from the mines before they can use the water and there should be strict guidelines on the quality of the water continuing past their “Factory”.

This is just more CryptoCurrency.

A data centre is where data is stored. This is where data is crunched and analysed and taken apart and put back together to create absolute garbage.

It is a BS factory.

Panic buy everything at Supercheap, Repco and Autobarn and stockpile it in your garden shed!

If the fuel companies continue their gouging and continue to report record profits.

If the government was smart, they would phase out the tax cut gradually so it isn’t as shocking.

I’m pretty sure ASIO will be one of the clients of the data brokers. Wasting taxpayer money; spying on taxpayers.

There aren’t really thinking about the future either!

Let us see: Independent Australian reseller buys 20 items from AliBaba, 3 are defective, they sell the remaining 17 at a 500% markup.

Large Australian company buys 200 units from the Manufacturer, sells the whole lot to Australian punters and 300% mark up and fucks the 30 customers around when 30 fail, until ACCC gets involved.

20 Regular Australians buys one item from AliExpress. For 17 of them, it works perfectly and for the remaining 3, they complain to AliExpress* and they get a replacement.

Choice magazine gets “tipped off” by Large Retailer and pretends to be protecting “the consumer” and “small business”.

Real estate agents won’t be alright, but they are all scum sucking dirtbags so IGAF.

all (apologies to the one or two real estate agents who aren’t scum sucking dirtbags)

The only modelling that isn’t better off is OnlyFans models.

But if the Gambling Ads are banned from the Internet, what will the Porn Websites advertise!?

… oh wait…

“Apparently”!?

In other words, we will now have attempted Electoral interference from US Bookmakers as well as mining companies and media moguls.

Give it a break and just build the Railways! FFS!

Apple’s VoiceCommand feature used the Dragon Dictate algorithm to do voice recognition in early versions of iPhone OS and MacOSX.

It worked OK, even with my thick Strine accent, as long as I used the correct verbs. Then they replaced it with Siri and it all turned to shit.

Dingos and quolls would be a better option.

Unfortunately we don’t have many endemic predators in Australia.

Also domestic and feral Canis Lupus Familaris in urban areas would dilute the gene pool of Canis Lupus Dingo, which isn’t great either.

And Dasyurus Geoffroii are also vulnerable to Canis Lupus Familaris and larger feral Felis Catus.

Yes, I feel sorry for the local mechanics who need to change the oil on a vehicle that has a layer of dried, rotting viscera all over the undercarriage.

In the far future, disinformation machines will confuse Gert Fröbes character from Goldfinger with him.

Also reducing the amount of lobbying money that bad actors have for funding the populists would be a step in the right direction.

Maybe by taxing them appropriately.

And then using the Tax revenue to make it better for people.

Maybe by subsidising local manufacturing industry, creating jobs, self worth and simulating the domestic economy.
