To be clear, Australia is not perfect by a long stretch, but our politicians are much more discrete in their desire for enrichment, we also have a lot more guard rails in place to prevent it, while they are in office.

While there is obviously big business trying to influence government decisions, that will always happen regardless of who we vote in. My point is, if the person you vote for isn’t clearly concerned with improving the lives of their constituents you should absolutely fuck them off and not continually vote for them for decades.

As an Australian I am constantly amazed that no matter how racist, homophobic, greedy, stupid, selfish and blatantly self-serving America’s government representatives are, you continue to vote for them.

We arent so committed to the red vs blue ideology. If I vote for blue one term and they don’t perform I’ll vote red or green or independent next term.

Unfortunately, the way things are going, your vote might not make a difference for much longer.

The woman in the red dress, isn’t she the Alaskan senator that voted yes then told everyone else to vote no?

We’re probably nearing the point where Americans will start trying to get over the border wall and into Mexico.

I’m pretty sure Canada doesn’t want Trump’s golden shower

Just an excuse to charge more for them. Cant think of any useful reason to have a screen on the case when you have your phone with you.

It actually helps Australia more than anyone as we are the 2nd largest exporter of LNG after the US.

The WA government is releasing a $5000 battery subsidy from 1st July, fingers crossed I qualify for both.

As a parent, uniforms are the best. They’re durable, don’t need to be ironed and they’re all the fucken same. Without them we’d have arguments over “where is my favourite t-shirt”, and we’d spend a lot more on clothes because they would be wrecked more often.

This seems like a pointless article, any country can cut an undersea cable if they wanted to, Russia does it regularly. Just because they made a purpose built machine to do it doesn’t really “shake up” anything, it just makes it easier/ quicker for them to do it instead of dragging an anchor or using explosives.

Of course now, if the cable is perfectly severed we’ll know exactly who did it.

 

I have 2 windows/doors in my living room which have 3 roller blinds each (6 in total) that I'm in the process of automating. I have purchased and installed 1 Zigbee motor that goes inside the tube that can lift 4kg using 0.8nm of torque, this is working well and I want to buy the rest. A couple of the blinds are longer and I am considering a 2nm version which can handle 10kg. If install a mix of these motors will they all move at the same rate or will they operate at different speeds?

When I press the button I want all of the blinds to raise/lower at the same speed.

Any advice appreciated.

 

When browsing All it would be great if the app could identify in some way the subs I’m not subscribed to. Given there are now multiple subs with the same name, this would help to identify which ones I am not subbed to when scrolling.
