Isn’t this a clear demonstration of corruption by the ALP?

Fair call. It would be nice if QLD had an upper house to hopefully block proposals like this.

It’s not clear to me that moving to optional is what he means:

“Preferences should not be a thing in Queensland elections, and it won’t be if government changes,” he said.

This quote suggests to me he wants to get rid of preferences all together.

Definitely not something a corrupt person would say.

Because if no one reviews the articles then anyone could publish junk. In highly technical fields the only people qualified to tell if something is BS science are the experts in the field, so they review and make sure the article has some merit.

That’s not to say the reviewing process is perfect, but it does at least help to filter some amount of bs.

It’s funny because I can’t even see the LNP coming up with something this bad.

This has already cost what, $430B? We should just throw in another few billion and build our own diesel subs for safety.

I haven’t quite finished it yet, my feeling is that it slightly overstays it’s welcome.

I’ve also noticed that most of the time I do a thing or two in the game then realise there’s not quite enough time in the loop to do another thing, but just enough time to make me want to not waste the loop, since I find starting a new loop a bit tedious.

From memory it respawns the low level enemies constantly, since they’re just ammo/health/armour pinatas. You needed to kill the big enemies to complete an arena.

Not really a fan of the design choice, but I had a decent amount of fun when I clicked with how the Devs wanted you to play.

He fucking loves playing this card.

Yeah but how are the cops supposed to access our data without a warrant or any form of notice?

None of this is surprising but it’s good to get the names of these people. This sort of shit rambling about elites works in the US and UK, so of course it works here too.

While its true that there are open-access journals and conferences without such costs

To publish open access normally costs upwards of $3k USD as well. There’s practically no point in the publishing chain where academics aren’t getting screwed.

Let’s also not forget that you have to review other people’s papers for the journal for free.

Probably more direct than I would have been but good post, glad you’ve argued with people on the internet so I don’t have to.

A mixture of slippery slope, a complete disregard for the weight of history and a lack of understanding of the difference between “law” and “justice” seem to be a recurring set of arguments when it comes to disagreeing with social justice issues.

But what about the economy‽

Also to be fair, Australia’s unemployment system is especially cruel with mutual obligations etc… It’s basically designed to kill people.
