  6 years doesn’t seem like much. The article says that this joker is a big time serial offender.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump says Ukraine should not target Moscow⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump also says Ukraine should not target Russian fossil fuel infrastructure. Maybe it’s time to ignore the TACO.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US | Trump threatens 35% tariffs on Canadian goods⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  TACO, time to ignore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They actually have a problem with workers or the lack of them and they have invested heavily in robotics. They aren’t the China of the 70s and 90s. It’s really something that we need to face up to if we want to compete but our political class isn’t really ready for that sort of reality. Years behind because of smugness.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  While they are subsidised, the Chinese are really good at low cost manufacturing. It’s not the cheap labour anymore but factory automation and robotics. They really outclass anyone else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US to halt shipment of weapons pledged to Ukraine, White House says⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like BS. Plenty to give Israel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please remember to spread the word about this :(⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, this is an unexpected image and a fun fact for the next party.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨climate.gov will stop publishing new content on July 1.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They are part of the climate change hoax, eliminating is necessary!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US government is using AI for unprecedented social media surveillance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Protected by the rule of law maybe a better way to express it. The current holder of the office of President is destroyer of the rule of law.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US government is using AI for unprecedented social media surveillance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The current mob seems have lost sight of the fact that citizens are supposed to belong in the USA and are protected by the constitution. The really interesting thing is how quickly all these public servants have accepted illegal orders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Geologists doubt Earth has the amount of copper needed to develop the entire world⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like doomish stuff. We innovate all the time. If copper and lithium are short supply items then technology will morph to use something else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Two Israeli embassy staffers shot dead in Washington⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone else seems get shot in the US so why not diplomats?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Musk’s AI bot Grok blames ‘programming error’ for its Holocaust denial⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just goes to show when you let billionaire megalomaniacs run large public services you have them trying to create a world to suit themselves.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Governments continue losing efforts to gain backdoor access to secure communications⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, the future has arrived in the US but not everywhere else 😬

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Governments continue losing efforts to gain backdoor access to secure communications⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We are supposed to trust our governments however it is pretty obvious that a Trump could come along and seriously misuse the backdoors that were said to be necessary to protect us. It doesn’t matter if you trust the current mob, it’s a rogue future mob we have to guard against.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is coal and fossil fuels still used?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are a couple of things about battery storage, a grid built on renewables needs ride through capacity and it needs to be able to meet surges in demand. In fact all grids do. Batteries do that and remove the need for hot standby gas generators but at the moment due to lack of capacity, not all fossil fuel generators. A lot of focus is on batteries as the backup for loss of wind or sun, the spread of renewables over a large geographical area and interconnected grids provides greater assurance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is coal and fossil fuels still used?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots being installed around Australia and are a lot cheaper than gas power generation for covering peaks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is coal and fossil fuels still used?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s where batteries and other storage systems come into play.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kremlin says Russia ready for mass mobilization like in WWII 'at any moment'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are they expecting an invasion? Who wants to invade? I suspect China.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian owner of Toronto café chain fighting Ottawa to save $8K of Vegemite⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The vitamin B in Vegemite is naturally occurring from the yeast process. It’s not added.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Donald Trump he'd 'love' to send American citizens to El Salvador federal prison⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t Trump a criminal? Maybe he should be sent to El Salvador?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘We’ve made a mistake’: Peter Dutton backs down on work from home policy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Dutton is a hard right conservative. People like him want crack down on everything, wind back social programs like Medicare, get stuck into workers pay and conditions and screw up our relationship with major trading partners (like China). It’s pretty obvious that when he came out with those brain fart policies, he was speaking from the heart. The upshot is that he will revert as soon as he is PM.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Putin calls up 160,000 Russians for military service⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well they are closing in on a million casualties so in imagine that the Russians need a top up. Should be popular with the locals.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump plans to revoke legal status for thousands Ukrainians who fled Russian invasion⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He is a Russian agent so why not?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Coalition’s attack on the climate authority is a cynical attempt to put ideology over facts – it must be called out | Kylea Tink⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Politicians are generally loose with the truth but the LNP really take it to a nasty level of lying. It all seems to be about winning the election however it really is about setting up an agenda for radical gutting of our society.

  It’s wishful thinking but they may have committed a Shorten manoeuvre where they scare the electorate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta, X approved ads containing violent anti-Muslim, antisemitic hate speech ahead of German election, study finds⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Time to block Meta. That and Twitter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US threatens to shut off Starlink if Ukraine won't sign minerals deal, sources tell Reuters⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t believe that they are actually dependent on Starlink given that Musk is a Russian sympathiser.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I shrink heatshrink in an explosion proof room?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How about heating up a soldering iron outside, turnoff and unplug then take it in and use the residual heat?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT may be shifting ‘rightward’ in political bias, study finds⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well this is lovely. As they say, you are what you eat. If you eat monsters (or the writing of monsters) …….

  So the wafer and wine are irrelevant and this is merely theatre?
