Yeah but the bus uses the same road as cars so other than being cheaper, you're getting stuck with traffic

Literally need to wait for the boomers to die out. Yes there's good ones but the majority are spoilt, entitled and easily influenced by the right and traditional media.

Germans. Come to Melbourne Australia, and as you get off at the airport realise there is no connecting train to the city. Cabs only.

Jimmy Carr was on Joe Rogan (I know he's awful but it was a decent episode) recently and was talking about how Hitler worked out propaganda works best when the "other" feels alien, which is why he closed down clubs in the 30s. Seeing Jews as "one of us" through clubs and hospitality made the propaganda against them ineffective because they were just seen as one of the people and this Hitler guy was just a nut, the whole movie cabaret being about it.

I think you're right. Melbourne is an amazing melting pot of people, so it's difficult to be not emphatic towards a cause that would improve their QOL

It's interesting to see the breakdown by electorate. Electorates close to Melbourne and Sydney cbds voted yes. The further out of vic and nsw, the more the no grows.

Qld, wa, NT and SA didn't have the same problem. Blanket no.

Tldr, the progressive part of the country that wants this is city focused. The rest of the country has a long way to go.

This isn't right. Cognizant are a well known systems integrator. In Australia alone recently they bought out some of the best local SIs just to get presence - contino and Servian, with a rumoured third (versent) on the way..

Theyre a body shop looking to grow their born in the cloud generstion of engineers.

What's the best android emulator out there atm?

Kind of, yeah. But the foldable gives a tablet experience that you just fold and put in your pocket. It's epic.

Very true about 3DS...

I mean I'm on my fold 5 right now while watching a YouTube video and responding to messages at the same time... doesn't feel like a gimmack to me. In fact I kind of feel like it's going to be hard to ever go back to a single form factor phone.

Not really. Because if it could, it would have. This forces it to happen without liberal/conservative interference.

The fact that it's been impossible thus far to create a significant body to the point where said group of people have forced a referendum to occur should be enough proof that it needs to occur.

The other part of this is it's not the US. No one knows our constitution, and up until this point most probably didn't even know we had one..

It literally does. By voting no you're saying you do not believe there should be a council that advises on first people's affairs. So either;

  • you think we've done a cracker of a job without them so far in relation to policies that affected them
  • you think they shouldn't have a say in laws that may negatively affect them
  • you've listened to one of various no campaign myths that has been debunked and are worried about paying more tax,or being negatively affected by this somehow.

If you're racist, vote no. It's that simple.
