Typical media hit job ignoring the point being made.

That model being discontinued doesn’t change or even dispute the fact that the updated fuel efficiency standard would raise car prices. What’s worse, and why more and more people are ignoring the mainstream media, is that they don’t even try to address the actual point because they know it’s true. This is a common deflection tactic.

Dutton is quite possibly the very worst candidate that the LNP could have chosen. This election was essentially un-losable for the LNP. A slam dunk without having to lift a finger. They could just have answered every question with “do you want another 3 years of this ALP government?” and it people would vote for them.

Instead they’ve completely botched almost every single thing about it to the point where the ALP and the greens are likely going to strengthen their positions despite being one of the worst governments in recent history.

You’re installing an operating system though, that’s irrelevant. You’re telling me the people that want their laptop to come with no OS because they want to install their favourite version of Linux because they’re “l33t haxors” can’t tell the difference between broken hardware and incompatible drivers? And they’re installing Linux? Where drivers are one of the biggest issues?

Absolutely not. You can’t just stab someone as long as there are no cameras. Just because there’s no camera doesn’t mean 25 people didn’t see you do it. It doesn’t mean other evidence doesn’t exist.

Believe it or not, if you went and stabbed someone and were arrested and then claimed self defence, these comments of yours would be evidence that it wasn’t self defence.

Why can’t you?

You think big corporations are just letting everyone work on their personal devices because Covid happened? Lol. Tell me you’ve never worked in a decently sized business without telling me.

Office365 still has local installs you pencil. That’s the version almost everyone uses. It’s more feature rich, more performant, and significantly easier to do integrations with other programs. You clearly have never had anything to do with this space. I have, and I can tell you that you’re very, very wrong. Covid just changed where people work from, not what devices they worked from - and even then, most big businesses have returned most of their employees to the office.

The kind of businesses that just use a machine with a browser are non-technical ones. They’re customer care, they’re assistants, etc. BA’s, QA’s, Project Managers, devs, systems, dba’s, finance, etc all use powerful devices with local installs of software.

Since the pandemic? Huh? You think everyone switched to web apps since the pandemic? Based on what and why?

Seriously, I’m struggling to understand what out of what we’re talking about has anything to do with the pandemic lol

Which arguments stopped being true last decade?

Probably QA tbh. Other than that I’d think it would be plugging some of the delicate ribbon connectors in.

 

Game 3 is upon us! Who do you predict will win? Where will Gutho end up playing? Will Cook get dropped as rumoured? Will Queensland achieve the rare whitewash? What other insane decisions will Freddy make in his (presumedly) last game as coach?
