I was prepared to overlook the uniform and accent - even bracing myself in case he said the plane was made of aloominum - but multiple use of the word turban, when he must have known he meant turbine, was just too provocative for a person to handle. I hadn't even had my breakfast ffs :lol: :thumbup...

Boeing should be f-cked to be fair. I try to avoid flying their planes whenever possible. Not because I think they will crash, I just don't want to reward their price-cutting and corner-cutting that costs lives. It's not Boeing any more. It's been taken over by the accountants who were running McDo...

Hey! I am not woke! Hmm, you say that. Here is the real test. Big Mac or Double quarter pounder? DQP every day of the week. Actually, it’s cheaper here to get 2 x Triple Cheeseburgers, so that’s my go-to. Always good sticking it to those multi national carnts when they leave logical holes in their ...

Love this story and have been following him for a while (kid plays online with my eldest). Hard not to see past the blatant racism on social media though. Some really disgusting white supremacist shit. As long as you are winning a country medals and accolades, you are a native son. First traffic ti...

Are any boredies travelling to follow the Lions.

That's disappointing af. I don't give a fudge about Israel or Iran or the USA. Let them fight their own battles and let's stay out of it. It certainly is; not surprising, tho’. Despite the LNP’s predictable whining about the Labor govt. being too weak etc etc, there is something very much like bipa...

basically can apply to all three beligerents with Iran on this one. they have a shitty government but the people are fantastic. Israel has a much worse government and the people are not so crash hot either. Iran is cursed with a shitty government, it is true. That shitty government tho' - or rather...

I think we are hoping for a 100 all draw.

What sort of rate do farms increase in value? And how would you get the farm into super in the first place - there is only so much you can add each year before you pay taxes, and I think its capped at like $30k? It’s capped at 150k these days. But it didn’t use to be. Besides, farms are just one ex...

Not a bad thing for the Liberals to be honest. They can cut ties with the extremist right from the Nats and actually look to try and become a progressive party they should be. They will still see preferences flow from the Nats, and they can negotiate with the Nats going forward to reach government....

X awash with video of Starmer, Macron and Merz on a train with cocaine and an associated snorting tool. Clearly faked but the Russian spokeswoman Zakharova is saying it is legit (Putin clearly rattled right now) I bet macron laid on the coke for starmer ... Stitching up the boring bastard. ' Would ...

I was talking to a friend about the election yesterday and realised I actually knew very little about Price so I asked if she had any actual skills or experience. He replied that she had been a childrens' TV presenter. Ley and Price would be a dream team, a numerologist and a childrens TV presenter ...

Apparently that’s exactly what they’ve done. Including hitting the fibre-optic cable factory that steers those nasty drones Damn clever, these Yukies. :thumbup: I read somewhere, and now wish I'd bookmarked it, that intelligence sources reckoned Russia had moved more than 200 pieces of anti-aircraf...

I played a cricket game against an adult Sri Lankan selection or whatever it was called when I was around 17. I doubt there was a single player in that team over 5'8" They're not big people so I would suspect even the full Sri Lankan rugby team wouldn't have too many 110KG players. I could be wrong...

Theres no LNP voters here but its amusing to see Greens voters so angry and throwing personnel insults when their inadequate party fails at the ballot box. Its a boardy Bandt. I wouldn't call this election a failure for the Greens, it's a mixed bag. Their overall vote in terms of 2PP actually rose ...

LNP members are a finite resource. Once we burn the ones we have we don't really want to make any more do we?

Kadyrov has asked Putin to accept his resignation. His health has declined to the point that he's under 24hr medical supervision. He has developed a phobia for buildings of more than 1 level and an aversion for open windows. He needs urgent treatment in the West for this condition and he will come ...

I am not going to pretend how inertia works, but I thought hydro had a big part to play too. Those big turbines add inertia to the system. Its about frequency control and synchronicity. AC is sinusoidal. You want to see the system fudge up mess around with frequency control and synchronisation. Tur...

I saw him on the ABC and I think his main aim is to stick it to the libs.

Sorry talking about Clive here.

They shouldn't be more radical as it would galvanise the Liberal base. Sure they have to roll out their policy but try and not go too far left and thry they'll stay in power for a long time. I can't believe I am going to say this but I think CI has his broken watch moment. Reduce the cost and incre...

9% swing against Dutton in Dickson…

He looks in trouble. If he loses it would almost be worth the lols for the LNP to win.

They’re not serious people.

They gave us Abbott and the shit show that followed, why would they not try to give us Dutton.

Bindi wrote: ↑Sat May 03, 2025 10:06 am Hang on. Pre-polling is much better for Libs, which gets counted later. Welcome to our new overlord, PM Dutton.

I heard that there would be big results early for Ind and labor early with big moves to the LNP once pre voting is counting. At least 5 points in favour of the LNP.

I suspect that the luxury handbag industry will go on without missing a beat. Yeah, the people who buy $38 000 handbags wouldn't buy them if they were $250. It defeats the point which is that paying thousands for a bag makes you feel special. Does that one on the right have space for; $3000 cash, p...

Regardless of covid, trade wars with China were inevitable at some point. Trump just bought that forward. And China is beating the sh!t out of Trump. Xi is better prepared.

Also just saw they're going to dump the EV FB tax rebate, after Dutton confirmed two days ago that it will not be touched. Internal polling must be dire. I can’t remember where I read it (so could actually be making it up), but after the last election the LNP got advice that they needed to go a bit...

Not if it was only 5 minutes though :twisted: A guaranteed 5 min charge time would definitely encourage me to buy an ev. Which is the correct answer. Unless you wanted (instead) to spend 4 pages name-dropping your Tesla Q. How do you know if someone has a Tesla? A. They will tell you.

As someone who's owned an EV for 2 years and 20k-odd miles, I'm not really sure why this is needed. Even doing a fair few miles a year, albeit mostly shuttling between Gloucestershire and London, it's very rare that I ever need to charge away from home. This might be surprising to you but there are...
