I don’t think factory worker is quite a covered specialty profession…

I'd love to give this a try, I work at a privacy sensitive company, can I ask in advance is it possible to opt out of:

Are all your posts downvoted because you sound like AI?

Ah extra raw WiFi photons please.

See gov.uk for a good example

My anecdata on a 2019 Volvo xc40 is that it’s my most reliable car ever? Made in china too

Oh yeah I’m a big fan of 911s (and fun cars in general) that’s why I’m always looking!

But I’m also a new Maserati owner and your Subaru friend is doing rookie depreciation numbers above…

vor 10 Monatendiscuss

That’s how it works now, for 5 bucks you just zoom down fastrak. Always blows my mind seeing 911s sitting in traffic instead of using it

Yeah I think it’s the water resistance, I bet it way below par

Ok I found this handy chart on a guardian article: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/jun/12/sever...

Anecdata on QLD everyone knows banana boat is a scam. That sunscreen straight doesn’t work. The cancer council being on here is surprising though

How can that make sense, the photons are emitted and fly straight at us

> I don't believe SaaS is moral

> I basically pirate everything that requires a subscription now or us a FOSS alternative… and now when I can afford to pay for subscriptions but the situation with lack of control over SaaS is so fucking untenable that I just can't.

Imagine stealing peoples work you admit you can afford, and claiming their business model is immoral!

As an aside, if anyone knows why Australia has 100% contactless payment penetration I’d be interested to know

I don't use my QC700s because I had so many pairing issues. I'm using Steelseries ones with a boom (great quality but I look like a helicopter pilot on zoom).

So checkmate in any one timeline counts? You couldn’t do all timelines.

> Software engineering just isn't that hard. Tedious yes, but not remotely difficult.

I find doing it well constantly really hard.

I like the car but it seems really dangerous to pedestrians in a crash.

I just saw some really nuts justifications to prevent poor people going to university I can’t believe someone rationalised in their head.

How could this not be popular? Where will would be without the next generation of literature, teachers, artists? Society would start to suck.

This would exclude so many smart kids from college. People who work a ton of jobs but support disabled family members for example.

Incorrect, every other western country at least has a pretty workable system.
