• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The push against wage rises has begun again – it’s an argument for Australia’s poorest workers to become poorer | Greg Jericho⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing is, businesses have a vested interest against wage growth, as wage growth is directly and totally incompatible with annual record profits - wage growth would eat into that.

  Put simply, it’s a conflict of interest. If people with conflicts of interest ceased to be allowed to participate in conversations wherein they have that conflict, the world would be a better place.

  Housing as an investment is what went wrong - we told a fucktonne of rich cunts that a return is a right when dealing with property, and so the moment interest rates rose, they forced us tenants to eat their loss. Guarantee you if and when interest rates drop again, they won’t pass on the savings though.

  Dental plan! (Lisa needs braces!)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm no longer five years old in Lismore — but I am shocked by the power racism still has over me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Australian culture is one founded on racism. What disgusts me is while the yes campaign is trying to do something about it, the no campaign is fighting for the status quo and then arguing that they aren’t racist.

  The cognitive dissonance of the no side astounds me; there were actual Nazis marching towards Vic Parliament yesterday, and they were waving no flags. Is that really the kind of person no voters wish to stand with?

  I feel though for us yes voters it is our duty to push back against this shit. To actually push back against Murdoch and his bullshit. To talk to family members, and cut them off if they keep doing this shit.

  Ultimately, everyone is capable of racism. The problem is the refusal of no voters to truly consider how they are racist, and then to improve.

  Have you got ship parts in your cargo hold? That’s usually the problem I have

  Fantastic mate, super glad it worked! Have fun!

  Nah, DLSS works fine on any RTX cards, but DLSS frame-gen isn’t possible on anything except the 4000 series

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fps drops to single digits on Legion 5 Laptop⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  How’s the heat on it? Using a PC (desktop) with slightly higher specs than yours, but no problems on High settings. Heavy framedrops like that could mean your CPU is getting throttled due to overheating (based on my old laptop which was a 960M and i5-6700HQ)

  Similarly, what settings are you running at? I’m sitting on a 2060 Super (slightly above 2070 in power), and can’t get it above high if I want more than 30fps.

  So yeah, two biggest things are temps and settings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you play starfield while mostly avoiding the space cowboy stuff?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Hard agree honestly - as an Aussie, American exceptionalism tires me. For what it’s worth, there is The Expanse, that compares colonisation of other worlds more to British colonisation (and Roman, for that matter) if that interests you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you play starfield while mostly avoiding the space cowboy stuff?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Starfield, like a lot of sci-fi, compares the early days of space travel to the old west. With that said, at close to 30 hours in my first character, there hasn’t been a single time I’ve engaged with the cowboy stuff. It’s largely attached to one of the two biggest factions, which is a group I haven’t engaged with at any point so far, with one exception being an encounter with one member of that faction as part of a brief, radiant quest.

  So yeah, you can completely avoid it! Happy gaming!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ship Customisation [Spoilers All]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Amazing mate! I’ll have a play around with a few of the other brands and see what I can find

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ship Customisation [Spoilers All]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed, although I typically keep everyone in jumpsuits while on the ship (kinda treating them as g-suits to deal with the sheer amount of force they’re under during combat). That said, I’ve discovered the Tamiyo(?) AIO hab comes with a toilet (no shower though).

  Hopefully mods’ll add a proper bathroom hab, you’d think the companionway 1x1s would be perfect for this function.

  Hard agree, honestly it was some of the most fun I’ve had in any movie this year, so worth seeing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could a tax against empty homes help end Australia's housing crisis?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I swear I’ve seen this exact post before. Might be because the answer is a pretty clear yes; if combined with killing AirBnBs. If only this changes, then the problem won’t actually be solved.
