As others have stated, we explicitly don’t have free speech in Australia.

We also don’t have any laws requiring political campaigns to be truthful. And as we saw, the day after the vote was done. All the leaders of the “No” campaign flat out abandoned indigenous people and explicitly said they wouldn’t be fronting a new referendum for recognition in the constitution without the voice. A promise they made repeatedly.

The leader of the opposition who spearheaded the no campaign has been called a fascist by his peers. And once commented that if elected he would do away with parliament and elections if he could.

It doesn’t matter. 63% support among indigenous folks is still a landslide.

You’re not arguing in good faith though. Accusing someone of racism like that. So you can go fuck yourself for all I care.

80% indigenous support polled prior to the campaigns starting. After a relentless campaign of misinformation courtesy of Murdoch. The actual number that voted yes was 63%.

In regional Aus, there is a popular, free-to-air, 24/7 Murdoch-run news outlet, Sky News Australia, not to be confused with Sky News. It is right of Fox News, closer to OAN.

Yeah, usually if I get stuck in my head I’ll just go work in the garden. Bit of sunshine and toil usually gets me unstuck.

Over 63% of indigenous people voted in favour of the voice.

You are repeating propoganda.

Australia is way more racist than the US. And more right-wing.

The US just doesn’t have compulsory voting, which means a minority of nutjobs can dictate politics. And even then, Trump lost.

Australia has compulsory voting and voted this way lol.

US is going through a labour organising revolution right now. While unions are left in the cold and experience dwindling power in Aus, even with the Labor party in power.

Yeah I’ve got arms like an orangutan. Despite the amount of stuff I’ve smashed my watch 5 pro against it’s still scratch and scuff free.

Ditto.

I worked in environmental analysis and projection for a mutli-national engineering company and I have bad news.

You can deconstruct a pipeline while keeping environmental contamination to a minimum. There is a fairly well-known book out there that tells you exactly how as well.

You’re also not understanding what is at stake here. You could do better to weigh the scale of what is coming down the pipe at us vs localized oil spills.

It’s a moral obligation to engage in civil disobedience and direct action. Especially if you live in a country like mine where protesting now carries the risk of a $$,$$$ fine.

Yeah I just wish NVIDIA would roll out updated drivers more frequently. Would be nice to have ray reconstruction working in Cyberpunk for instance. There are also some issues with the DLSS implementation in Cyberpunk and the current drivers.

For work though I have no complaints. And if you’re a patient gamer who is happy to work through old titles or whatever between driver updates then you’re probably not going to be too distraught.

And of course if more people use Linux, driver support should improve.

Yeah.

I’m personally lucky that my fav titles are CPU hogs, like ARMA 3 and X4: Foundations. Both run better under Linux.

Cyberpunk runs great too, I’m sure once we eventually get the updated drivers for NVIDIA we’ll get Ray Recon too.
