  • Hey! That miner paid a whole 10% GST on that shovel he bought from Bunnings! What more does the Gubernit want! Bloody blood sucking vampires, would squeeze a dollar out of a rock! /s

  • Hantavirus ship travellers headed to Perth's COVID 'white elephant'

    Jump

  • Feel like it was the media calling it a white elephant. I didn't pay attention though if anyone worth listening to suggested it at the time. And by 'media' I basically mean our homegrown mini-Murdoch, Stokes.

  • "Counterterrorism" now officially means targeting trans people. The White House will prioritize the “neutralization” of groups it considers “anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist.”

  • Budget 2026 Australia: Jim Chalmers goes for broke in federal budget facing twin threats of housing pain and Iran war disaster

    Jump

  • Bit of a mixed bag. I'm glad negative gearing and capital gains are finally allowed to be touched. Unfortunately the decades of damage is done, yet plenty of people still think absurdly high asset prices, especially in housing, can only be a good thing for a nation.

  • Diesel cars, wood fires contributing to pollution sending people to hospital

    Jump

  • Fuck that smoke and ash was rough last week. We had to redo two loads of washing that were drying on the line.

    I's once at a bonfire night and these siblings were just sat there staring into the fire and started chuckin their glow sticks in. No discernible reason, just to watch something burn i suppose.

  • What questions do interviewers need to stop asking during a job interview?

    Jump

  • They're easy to spot. Their last job is always at a phone company.

  • ABC radio kills third party internet radio streams and embedded links.

    Jump

  • Theres a place for trying ro understand consumer likes and dislikes. But a national broadcaster has a wider duty to deliver the information the nation needs to hear without fear or bias. Note, I am not saying the ABC today meets that duty.

    Listening too much to the preferences of the listeners introduces a bias and a circular logic to deliver more of the popular shows with those listeners because otherwise why have the data analysis if you don't act on it. Same can be said of trying to attract non-listeners. Sometimes less is more.

    People don't often want to be challenged, but its often what they need to hear to temper their own beliefs of their correctness. Thats a key public service that is necessarily affected by reacting your audience/non-audience too well. Its like fact-checking, no one wants it, but it works.

  • How do Australians really feel about each other? New data paints an 'alarming' picture

    Jump

  • Hmm, i could imagine that. The ones I went to were all along the west coast, maybe that made a difference.

    What can you buy with this much money in Sydney?

    Jump

  • Yeah its been an interesting part of the fediverse experience for me. There seems a myriad number of reasons for and implementations of accounts on this network. From straight rss bots, posts from AI news experiments, to agenda setting/injecting (propagandistic) accounts. If this account has an agenda, I don't really understand it yet. Maybe online reference commentary padding out some kind of shorts channel, I don't know..

    I went to look at soylentstryker and its already gone 😂

    What can you buy with this much money in Sydney?

    Jump

  • This is an interesting account, every post is a mild question about a subject, generally internationally focused, and each question reminds me of some click-baity title of a youtube video.

    This particular question reminds me of a highschool maph auestion. But a poor one, because its answer is the answer to a mildly philosophical question, 'How should you spend a day in Sydney?'.

  • Tax breaks, super changes to kick in on 1 July as Chalmers flags more to come in budget

    Jump

  • With all these little announcables its starting to look like the typical budget, in that by the time budget day comes round there won't really be any major announcements left. Leading ro budget day being a bit of a flat affair. Not sure its 'bad' politics per se, but it is boring politics. Boring can be good.

  • Use all caps when publishing a song! Thats such a random little note to come out of this. Its a bit like the truism to put a smiley face on the bill, because it garners more tips.

    Thanks so much eureka@aussie.zone, a fantastic job again this year.

    One question would you go all nine rounds every time? In other words if there were clearer favourites that would reduce the number of rounds? Or is the aim to eliminate one candidate at a time and redirect only those flows each round.

    I've never done electoral work, so I assumed multiple drop-outs were a thing.
