Re: Australia Far Right Watch

She is just a damn good female boxer, and for some reason, unlike damn good male boxers who are celebrated for their achievements, if you are a damn good female boxer you are immediately attacked by the far right! She should sue news.com, I suspect she has a good case! I am now seeing articles ...

Re: What is Elon Musk up to now..

As much as I hate Musk a lot of the headlines are very misleading (though what's new really). He isn't suing companies for not advertising on X, he is suing "Global Alliance for Responsible Media" and a bunch of it's member organisations for coordinating a boycott and using their market dominance to ...

Re: French Dressing

Is it the last supper or the feast of Dionysus??

Re: Joe Biden

I am thinking she was the right choice, there seems to be a lot of immediate momentum behind her and the whole way this happened can be played as a positive.. She was patient and supportive of her president, not undermining Joe. Then Joe himself, was a good president who realised she was a better ...

Re: Global computer outage

The simple fix isn't so simple when your employer use bitlocker.. Need to get them to fix it next week, I'm sure there will be long queues in the office to get that done..

Re: Global computer outage

Yeah, my insecure (not company approved) Linux box was fine. of course, but my company laptop is cactus. Constant boot loops, can't even get into recovery

Re: Donald Trump

mmm, I'm afraid this will do 2 things.. 1) Galvanise support for Trump and push a bigger turnout for him at the election. 2) It is going to make him even more insufferable when he is in office, he will be ranting and raving about needing to crack down on the violent/murderous left wing extremists ...

Re: Old Gear

20 years! You are numbered among the righteous! LMAO, I started in 1996 with linux, as OS/2 Warp was dead.. I guess I am truly holy, that or bat-shit crazy (personally going with the later). Though to be fair I pretty much always kept a windows install just for games and photo editing.. Though ...
