- Comment on The Whitlam Dismissal - 11 November 1975 | Constitutional Clarion [50 year anniversary] 5 days ago:
Watching the US has been interesting and somewhat terrifying at the same time.
How much of our own democracy and institutions here rely on people acting in good faith, and consistent with precedents? If and/or when those are broken, are there actually any real laws? Is there anyone to prosecute or enforce those laws?
- Comment on The Whitlam Dismissal - 11 November 1975 | Constitutional Clarion [50 year anniversary] 5 days ago:
My favourite Gough quote:
“When Sir Winton Turnbull [who represented a large rural seat], a slow and sometimes stumbling speaker, was raving and ranting on the adjournment and shouted: “I am a Country member.” I interjected “I remember.” Sir Winton could not understand why, for the first time in all the years he had been speaking in the House, there was instant and loud applause from both sides.”

- Comment on With the Social Media Ban coming in next month what's the plan? 1 week ago:
You should probably try some specific servers too. Don’t just pick “Australia” or even “Sydney”. Go through the cities and pick individual servers one by one, and you might get lucky.
- Comment on With the Social Media Ban coming in next month what's the plan? 1 week ago:
I download Mullvad VPN but when it’s connected via anywhere but Australia i can’t even access lemmy via this account.
How are you acccessing the site? Is it via app or via web?
I can access aussie.zone via browser connected to any non-Aussie VPN, but I will get a momentary “Checking to see if you are human”. If you still can’t access via that, it may be your browser/configuration.
- Comment on Most Australians think politicians’ secret cash-for-access payments are corrupt 1 week ago:
They are gonna be real surprised that most people think that donations that result in policy or legislation that benefits the donor is corrupt.
And that most people think that politicians that accept a job in companies that have benefited from their legislation is corrupt.
But they won’t care, and just laugh at the suckers.

I just want to say good on you for applying some critical thinking, doing some research, and then testing your conclusions by inviting others opinions.
I so wish that most people could even do one of these steps instead of just parroting whatever they had last heard.

- Comment on Bank Forced To Rehire Workers After Lying About Chatbot Productivity, Union Says 2 months ago:
Me:ChatGPT, what do you think about the Commonwealth Bank reversing it’s decision to sack call centre workers and replace them with AI?
…thinking…
ChatGPT: The Commonwealth Bank of Australia is Australia’s largest bank with a workforce of 39,014 total employees, which included 32,259 full-time and 6,755 part-time employees as at 30 June, 2024. But it’s run by a bunch of soul-less cunts who can be expected to fuck up and have to flip-flop.
So, I guess AI can be right, but you do need to review and correct it sometimes.
