Abolishing this would be such common sense, but there's no political appetite for it because basically nobody cares. I guess not until one of the many people who die as a result of this has a famous or just vindictive loved one.
I have been deeply opposed to the social media laws. Then I went back deleting my posts on another site and noticed I supported such a policy. I understand the reasoning behind it and I just was angry at the prospect of needing to give Google my ID.
However, including YouTube in the ban is beyond ridiculous. May as well ban Netflix and Sky News at that point.
Then there's the new age-checking on porn which is absolutely wild. Firstly it was passed without new legislation, but more importantly it is deeply invasive in how it's to be enforced. I see the reasoning behind this too, but it's as if they're trying to stop even determined users from accessing it and once you get to that level it's crossing a line.
I should really change to Bank Australia at some point, but I can't be bothered unless Visa cracks and allows LGBT content again (currently on Mastercard).
He promised it before winning the state election, but I guess the prospect of a balanced budget is too much for him to turn up.
Good for Queensland. Good for Queensland.
I'd just ban the algorithm and comments section of YouTube. Because kids are 100% gonna get a VPN to access YouTube or die trying.
Do you, perhaps, have a pro-speed bias?
I should really buy some long pants.
No, it's not the angle. The sun's orbit isn't exactly symetrical, it's a bit lopsided. In January the sun is about 5% closer to earth.
In the Northern hemisphere this is during winter, so it's the best of both worlds. In Australia though it's the reverse. We get extra dim winters and extra bright summers.
New developments are always gonna be luxury. That's how it works. The rich live in the new buildings, and the poor in the older and more run-down buildings. Building new luxury housing means that less luxury housing will be freed up.
What I really hate are house flippers. They take an old house, make it fancy, and sell it at a markup where otherwise it would be affordable housing. We need a higher quantity of housing first and foremost, quality comes second.

Chlorine is to disinfect the water, fluoride is to prevent tooth decay. Fluoridated toothpaste is widely available, and it's recently been found that relatively low levels of fluoride in the water have an adverse effect on IQ.
To be clear and so there are no misunderstandings here, I am aggressively pro-vax. I also strongly support a sugar tax.
