Cheers, mate! But I stick strictly to OG Kenner 77-85 to ease the pain on my pockets, lol. Unless something ridiculous pops up. Like the HasLab Razor Crest. That comes with an even more ridiculous price-tag :grimacing:

BUT WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO LOOK AT THIS SEXY B!TCH IT EVEN COMES WITH AN EXCLUSIVE JAWA FFS

"I'd trust the government" makes me shudder in any context.
Maybe, but you do every day in nearly every thing you do.
And compared to a Bitcoin miner…
 
Something many of you might not have noticed when watching District 9 is that when they say "prawns" they're talking about the aliens and not the sea creature

xmas shopping for my family - so far one present for one son
for me - about 15 parcels delivered and still some pending.

I think I am doing it wrong.

Have you tried sacking Hinkley?
 
Yep, whenever my internet is crawling along at half rat power (which seems more and more often recently) I blame the Bitcoin miners rather than the NBN.
Nah, just the Libs for half arsing it by letting the private companies wet their beaks.

You know that the Labor plan for the NBN would have cost you $300 per month due to the extra cost, right? the rural areas that would have needed massive infrastructure upgrades to guarantee the same level of service - which is part of the legislation.

When you’re forcing people into something, you need to do it for a price that would be acceptable to them. Most people opt for the cheapest plan there is. The reason why they can upgrade the NBN to 1GB speeds now in the city is because Musk’s Starlink is going to be available to rural areas and will offer 500MB per sec speeds with 30ms latency for $130 a month (currently, satellite NBN is 600ms).

The taxpayer isn’t going to subsidise your Internet.

A lie is a lie.
 
It's too bad it's so hard to create competition with privatization because Optus and Telstra etc. have such an infrastructure monopoly. Imagine a new private player disrupting the status-quo with big investors to start rollout of super high speed in some areas. Watch the others either scramble to do the same or engage in legal filibustering...or buy outs. The demand is there, people will absolutely switch to faster options if they are presented.

Could be easy money to a particularly rich private equity. Help us Daddy Elon :p

They’d have to pay for the politicians first.

Certain industries should never be privatised, water, energy, transport, health, policing and communications.

They are essentials that everyone will pay for regardless of who owns them.

The only thing that privatisation does is allow any profits to be siphoned off, usually overseas. The UK is a perfect example of it, they privatised many of these industries, the other European countries bought them 😂😂.
