Barnaby Joyce??!?!?!?!??!??
- Comment on Nuclear power explained in 12 numbers to help you understand how it fits Australia’s energy needs 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I can’t remember where I read that but it’s definitely a possibility IIRC.

Pumped hydro is not exactly a dam. There’s a hole and 2 water reservoirs. Yes there’s a cost but so does anything.

You also can’t just turn nuclear on or off. You’d need to also get rid of existing solar. Ie: get people to disconnect rooftop solar to make nuclear work.

sad facts :(
- Comment on (Pauline Hanson) The Man From Snowy Hydro 3 weeks ago:
Honest fact: It’s dear, but firstly, AUKUS is more expensive, and secondly, when it’s storing energy we’re going to forget the amount we spent and really enjoy the amount we’re saving.

Wow there isn’t even a punch line, Andrew Marlton just skewers those involved. I think this was a criticism of the NACC when it was founded. Albo basically neutered it till it was useless.
- Comment on Can somebody explain why game makers don't start their own companies together? 1 month ago:
There were a bunch of game company closures in Australia in the 2000s and now there are a bunch of Australian indie devs, as an example. The cycle takes a long time though.
- Comment on Let's discuss: Tetris 2 months ago:
It’s so bite sized yet moreish.
- Comment on Phil Spencer, long cast as Xbox’s saviour, may be remembered as the man who killed it 2 months ago:
I don’t think it’s a death, it’s more of a transition. Firstly, a lot of XBox games have been coming to PC, intentionally, because Microsoft basically own the market*. They’ve also created XCloud + Game pass, possibly the most convenient way to play games, and you don’t need an XBox.
The real people who’ve turned on the device itself has been devs. Some of the stuff they’ve been saying at GDC have been at the same level as the stuff they say about Linux as a target. Like your game shouldn’t be that dependent on platform, it hurts things like archival.
- Comment on Labor concedes Tasmanian election, leaving Liberals to negotiate with new crossbench 3 months ago:
To maybe make my point clear: The Greens didn’t “concede”, and neither did JLN. Labor appears to be stating (although the auto-summary below seems to throw some grey area in here) that they’re just not interested in a minority government, and I just don’t think that’s what the voters wanted them to do here.
- Comment on Labor concedes Tasmanian election, leaving Liberals to negotiate with new crossbench 3 months ago:
Pretty scummy. We elect representatives and they have a duty to try and form a government. If they don’t want to form government then vacate the slot.
- Comment on The return of Gamergate is smaller and sadder 3 months ago:
Hello. The Verge is shit and manipulative in the way they framed this, but SBI is a beat up. It’s the usual gamers not really knowing how games are made.
- Comment on what do y'all actually host? 6 months ago:
Lol this is very similar to my setup. I also have an xmpp server (ejabberd), grocy, and fresh rss on digitalocean.
