  How would this hurt them at all? They will just do other things instead

  What would hurt them is if enforcement increased

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, I use Debian stable. How'd you know?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There is something nostalgic about Gnome 1/2. i do miss them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar panels for surveillance but none for affordable power⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Meanwhile here in Australia, subsidised Solar, battery, Heat pump water heaters and AC units.

  But don’t worry, the gas loby is trying to get in on the action and return

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Victorian Power Generation sources and costs over the last year⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Coal also hides the real costs too, like the cleanup caused by air pollution, health, etc. There are also coal seam fires that have been burning for years

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Behold, "the whole story of Steam's economy in one picture": the top 1% of games earn 84.5% of estimated revenue, and most games barely make anything⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Surely coconut simulator makes up 80% of all revenue. It’s amazing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That does not spark joy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My housemate actually painted a table here with white and gold. It looks good. But, that’s the only hold thing in the house, and my house is garbage

  Also, I think the table was recovered from actual garbage

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That does not spark joy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  All that gold shit in the background genuinely looks tacky. And the eagle reminds me of Nazi shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ahoy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t increase pricing, maintain low quality, and sell ad tiers and sell expect people to keep paying.

  Even worse, movies and shows often get removed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pauline Hanson still doesn't like Mardi Gras, says sexuality should be 'behind closed doors'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So should court cases about war criminals. She shouldn’t be interfering

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell suffered a fall on June 14. He gets paid leave.Since he entered the Senate in 1985, McConnell has voted against creating or expanding paid leave at least 23 times.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m Australian, but isn’t this the guy who nobody has seen for months, and is probably dead, or maybe even brain damaged (which would be a reason to keep him out of public)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 756 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Great game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Power⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, they tasted better than all that new gummy sh** which overcomplicates it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Power⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t realize this was an international thing. We had them here in Australia too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Going Back ↪️🏨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No… AirBNB’s are so particular because they are trying to make easy money.

  I booked a AirBNB NYE once, where the bin at the bbq was overflowing, and the freezer was full of ice (so couldn’t use it).

  If they can’t be fucked cleaning, they shouldn’t be operating one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Going Back ↪️🏨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I booked a AirBNB once, and we had already driven an hour, and the owner said they never approved the booking, and “Airbnb messed up” when I called an hour into the drive

  Nope, she clearly had forgotten to disable it that night. Then, after I argued, she said “oh just wait 10 mins, I’ll see if I can fix it”, and wanted me to sit there for 10mins in my car doing nothing.

  Another time, its was NYE, it was $400 a night, and the bin there was overflowing at the BBQ, and, we bought ice cream but the freezer was frozen over completely, so it wouldn’t fit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just introduced the Guaranteed Paid Vacation Act — a bill to guarantee at least two weeks of paid vacation to every full-time worker in America. Over 90 other members of Cong…⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. Almost everywhere already has this. We even get long service leave here in Australia

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bloodbath Ahead For EA As It Looks To Cut $700 Million In Annual Costs Under Saudi Arabia⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It worked well even without it

  We shouldn’t have to remove the ladder for the pool in the Sims or play with fireworks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bloodbath Ahead For EA As It Looks To Cut $700 Million In Annual Costs Under Saudi Arabia⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sims was actually fun at the time… Until they did all the expansions

  But, I really wish it was black and white. That was the best game

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bloodbath Ahead For EA As It Looks To Cut $700 Million In Annual Costs Under Saudi Arabia⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It takes a lot of money to make the same games for 25 years straight, change the front logo, the names of the players, make tiny tweaks and market it.

  Maybe they need to start releasing Sims 2025, 2026, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gianni Infantino: FA set to withdraw support for Fifa president⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone should have lost confidence when they handed out the peace prize.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t piss me off as much as media players that show you what happens in the next episode as it’s loading

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSBLACKOUT (boycott of PlayStation)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I sold my PS5 a year ago. So, I already am boycotting…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Richard Marles says new US tariff on Australia 'makes no sense'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Disagree with this one.

  The entire point is to make it look like he’s doing something so, at the end of the presidency, he can claim he deserves a hall pass for three Epstein files and tax fraud because he’s done so much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Responds To Tariff Refunds Lawsuit, Tells Customers They "Got What They Bargained For"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re doing also lots of pro consumer things

  Whereas, I’d argue Nintendo is almost entirely anti consumer. They didn’t even fix their joycons and recall them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Millions of Australian customer details potentially exposed after Origin Energy hacked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not surprised.

  Surprised originenergysux didn’t post this though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Not your enemy': Pauline Hanson and Angus Taylor's stoush amid preference question⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. I mean, I could make the argument that whilst I disagree with LNP, at least their ideas have some merit or argument at the moment.

  Onp however, they’re off pretending like Pauline could have been killed by a poster, or using ridiculous whatifs or things that never happened.

  Like the whole diesel “crisis”. They all told us to trust them it would be a disaster within a month and we were out of fuel.

  Now, they just moved on to other bs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PM 'unequivocally' apologises for 'shag, marry, date' podcast comments⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  He is human, and he’s fairly normal.

  I know people who would be similar to hang out with to him

  Pauline on the other hand would be a pita to hang out with, because you could picture her acting like an ass to every foreign looking person serving you food

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨News story saying Labor minister called One Nation voters 'unintelligent' shown to be fake⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They’d be right though

  Pauline herself says education is woke

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As Xbox and PlayStation flounder, Steam is reportedly having another record year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The funny thing, is that if you check the people who bought the steam machine, they’re happy with their purchase too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Not your enemy': Pauline Hanson and Angus Taylor's stoush amid preference question⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like either party, but, he’s not wrong
