It’s that brighter dot to the right of the reflection.

That’s not true. You can get a gun licence pretty easily in Australia. Anyone that passes a police background check can get one. Yeah it takes 6 months but that’s probably a good thing as well. You can’t just make an irrational emotional decision and get a gun.

Also the storage requirements are quite strict. You have to have a proper gun safe to own a gun.

Then it’s only single shot rifles and some pistols. We also have no public carriage. You can only move guns around from point to point, not just casually carry them.

It makes access to guns very hard for the average person. Yeah it doesn’t stop organised criminals having more dangerous weapons, but organised criminals aren’t going into schools and massacring people.

Strict gun control has been a really positive decision in Australia. Those who want to go hunting, still can, but kids, teenagers and crazy bastards have a very hard time getting them.

They have a paid method in place.

YouTube Premium.

Free access you pay with ads.

All of us cheapskates have been using adblock or YouTube vanced to get the service completely free.

I’m not going to curse them for making efforts to stop us leaching their service for free.

Your probably right.

There a completely separate issue though.

Very pleasant person.

The woman was German.

Why would Israel give a shit about these people murdering Germans?

If anyone would be making a measured response it should be Germany.

If it was my daughter being paraded through the streets dead, I wouldn’t be thinking about a very measured response right now. I’d probably be trying to level the entire country.

Duck duck go needs a lot of work to replace Google search.

I’ve used it for years but often I still get the shits and just bring Google up after duck duck go fails to find what I’m looking for.

This is a left wing echo chamber. Get those alternative views and ideas out of here.

You parrot the narrative talking points or GTFO.

It’s a short sighted argument to say baddies don’t follow the rules so your only restricting honest people.

In Australia assault rifles and automatics are just outright banned. You need a licence to own any type of gun, which takes 6 months waiting for background checks to be done. Guns must be kept in Safes etc.

So whilst a baddie might want to get an assault rifle and go on a kill rampage he can’t. There just aren’t any around. You can’t break in to a house and steal one.

Can organised crime get them? Sure. But that’s not what this is trying to stop. It’s preventing the impulsive bat shit crazy person going on a rampage.

It absolutely helps, as proven by Australias lack of mass shootings.

People who want to go hunting still can.

Seems pretty easy to control though.

Once spammer is detected, you just ban them and the account that invited, all the way up a down that invite tree.

A 9/10???

IGN is such a meme.

A 5 is average.

They are saying this game is so good, it’s essentially flawless and beyond comparison in all areas compared to all other games.

How much does a 9 cost?

If you just got back then your definitely not my dad

Twitter made a small profit in 2018 and 2019. They lost money in every other year.

In fact the year before Musk started ranting about buying it, they reported their biggest loss ever.

The company was a disaster before and after Musk.

Fortunately you’ve got this left wing echo chamber to vent in for solidarity.

I’m with you comrade 🫡

My employer told us all the rumours were true. Layoffs were happening. They called it “difficult conversations” instead of firings.

About 1/5th of a team of 1000 people.

Apparently they hadn’t decided who yet.

Meanwhile we just received the biggest bonus in the companies history due to historic profits.

Then the CEO told investors that they expect a big pickup early next year and will need to hire a bunch of people to handle the demand.

So they are firing a bunch of people for 6 months to hit financial targets in the back half of the year before hiring people again.

Everyone that is to be fired is still waiting to find out who will be axed.

I don’t know how to do the cool quote thing you did but I’ll answer in order.

1. I don’t care if you want to edit my race out of your game. It has zero effect on me. It’s your private game. Why would I care? If I don’t like the mod it I just won’t install it. I’m never going to intervene to stop you from enjoying your game the way you want just because I don’t agree or like it.

This argument is just trying to find reasons to be offended.

I’ll give you an example that will definitely trigger you. I play HOI4. That game is a historical WW2 game. The game does not have an accurate flag for Germany because it’s symbol is not allowed to be shown in Germany. I always use a mod to put the proper Nazi flag in the game because I want my historical game to be representitive of the period. Denying me the ability to use it doesn’t make the historical event suddenly not happen. It happened. Am I suddenly a Nazi supporter because I want my war game to reflect reality?

Im not out Heil Hitlering, or calling for the deaths of millions of Jews. I’m just playing was war game in the privacy of my own home.

2. I’m not American so the N word has very little meaning to me. I think it’s stupid that people can’t even write the word without being banned. How are you supposed to talk about it. It’s rediculous. If your skin colour is the right shade then you can go around saying the forbidden word at will?? Honestly I’m never going to say it because it’s not part of my cultural norm anyway.

In Australia the racist word people used for indigenous was ‘coon’. I’ve never used it and I never will. Ive not even heard anyone use it since maybe the 80s when a kid was trying to be an edgelord. Do I think the word should be banned internationally just because some wankers used it 30+ years ago? No. If you’re using it in a hateful way against someone or a people, then sure, that bastard should face some consequences.

I’m just never going to support blanket banning activities or words for everyone because of a few bad actors.

I think that’s a terrible idea.

Now we are onto the apparently oppressed rich western people that want to be called some idiotic pronouns like xi, or horse person or some other BS. I’m not doing it. It’s too stupid.

If someone wants to be called she instead of he, then whatever, I’ll call them it. It causes me no harm and I really don’t care. Live your best life.

Blocking a person from modifying their game because you don’t like the idea? That’s Nazi book burning philosophy right there. If you can’t see it irony then I don’t know what to say to you. You think your in the right, but your actually to oppressor, even if you think it’s with good intentions.

If you don’t want to feel excluded then don’t install the mod.

I don’t understand why people argue for less options that don’t affect them.

No one is forcing the mod on you. Is it really that harmful that it exists?

I don’t give 2 shits if a mod exists that makes everyone in the game trans or gay or anything else. I’m just not going to install the mod unless it improves the game in some way or it sounds like it would make the game more interesting with alternative play styles or something.

I’m never going to argue that the mod I’m not interested in should be removed because it’s not reinforcing my beliefs.

Tolerance goes both ways. I tolerate your beliefs and you tolerate mine.

That tolerance doesn’t exist in this woke reality we are enduring at the moment. Anything that doesn’t repeat the correct narrative is subjected to cancel culture. It’s always my way or the highway.

I lived in a town with 50k back in the 90s. I don’t remember there ever being a bus service except for the school buses.

The town was pretty massive though. Half the town was on a plateau as well so you had to walk up a pretty huge hill to get to half of it.

There was quite a few taxi’s driving people around.

Maybe there was a bus that I never used and can’t remember. As a kid I rode everywhere. That hill was a son of a bitch though.

It definitely flew under the radar. I would say most people have never seen it.
