  • twinsies!

  • Oh wow, thanks for that info. I knew LW was uncomfortably liberal but that top comment is very concerning if true.

    The removal, if I'm understanding the story correctly, seems justifiable enough on its own (untagged nsfl), but it does seem part of a pattern of borderline decisions all going one particular way…

    (If it was removed for being "political", as some others said, that's inexcusable.)

  • School blown up?

    This is the first I've seen, and it looks like a black square Photoshopped to cover up the kerb near a door? What's this about a school being blown up?

    I'll be honest, I thought it was someone humorously censoring one of those fairy doors, pretending it's a government cover-up of the supernatural.

  • Sorry, what is a "modem delete", and how does all of this work if you just don't choose to buy a router from your ISP at the time you first order an Internet plan from them? Like, it's included there as a standard option with most ISPs, and they have instructions that at the very least seem simple (usually just making sure you have PPPoE with the right connection details, or IPoE set) to use.

  • So brutally assaulting anti-genocide protestors is ok with Mardi Gras, but calling out those who support genocide is a step too far.

  • Fwiw a 50 kWh system is insanely excessive for most people. I have 10 kWh and have used grid electricity 3 days in 9 months. Granted, I live alone, but usage does not scale linearly with number of people. I'd hazard a guess than even a family of 4 would be unlikely to need more than 25 or 30 kWh, with some basic attention to how they use it (like run the dishwasher and washing machines during the day, and preferring rugging up to running the heater—which is reverse cycle AC and not the far less efficient resistive heaters of course—where possible, and having good insulation).

  • one of the bigger killers comes from the >1 dollar a day for connection.

    Yeah that's it for me. I built new and moved in 9ish months ago. The covenant on the land required a battery and solar as standard. Since moving in, I've used grid power on maybe 3 separate days. Because of government handouts my electricity account was several hundred dollars in credit when I moved in, and I haven't paid a cent from my actual bank account as a result. But the credit is slowly draining, entirely as a result of the connection fee.

  • Read the fucking comment you fucking turd.

    I even went to the effort of bolding the relevant section for you.

  • Classic Labor. "Here's a good idea, we're gonna do something half as good!"

  • Wrong

  • No, it's at the request of the government. But for reasons I don't understand the efficacy of the block is not super high.

  • Police told Ngakyunkwokka: “If you don’t do the stat dec [statutory declaration] and name a person, you can be charged”. He was not told that he had to complete the statement even if he could not nominate the driver.

    FFS if you're going to continue being this much of a fuckwit and/or idiot I'm done with this conversation.
