Nothing sinister iirc. I was bored one afternoon and decided to catch a bus to Warrandyte to buy video games, you got on the bus and we shot the breeze, the end.

Frank O'Cotsoe (haitch), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:23 (fourteen years ago)

I actually had a very bizarre dream last night - in it everyone died, all at once. Like, a bomb went off I think? Anyway we all "died" but our minds/souls just popped into new bodies in a new area or plane or something. Like... the scene reset, basically, and we could start again, with the same minds, but as new people in a diff place.

A bit like Dark City I guess? Except not all gothy and confusing. Just... man, it was weird, but in a good way.

Frank Lloyd Webber (Trayce), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:25 (fourteen years ago)

And then the scene resets started happening at random like in that Futursama episode with the random time skips and it got annoying.

Frank Lloyd Webber (Trayce), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:26 (fourteen years ago)

On the topic of Futurama, I saw the first 2010 ep last week and loved it. Did not expect that.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:35 (fourteen years ago)

Oh the new series is really on form. In fact the first couple of eps are the weakest! Tho I need to re-watch a few. The one where mom turns eveyrone into "eyePod" drones I didnt care for, it was a misstep but the rest was tops. Way better than the movies.

Frank Lloyd Webber (Trayce), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:37 (fourteen years ago)

Still need to see the holiday special.

Frank Lloyd Webber (Trayce), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 00:38 (fourteen years ago)

ACE.

fwiw we now have a full HD telly and 720p copies of all the new eps and they look utterly gorgeous. This show is the most attractive going atm.

The evil people at your local Murdoch tabloid have a fun tool to check out how homophobic your electorate is: http://www.news.com.au/national/gay-marriage-data-interactive/story-e6frfkw0-1225961445853

I got 62% for Grayndler, huzzah for progressive inner west types!

Culture: only gays have it (King Boy Pato), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 02:23 (fourteen years ago)

The first and only time I have knowingly clicked a Murdoch link in ~5 years. My electorate is 61% yes, 20% bigots and 19% apathetic.

'Marriage is between a man and a woman' is a euphemism for 'poofs are revolting' btw.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 02:28 (fourteen years ago)

Mate, I've got nothing against poofs but they should be shot then burned and then their ashes need to be buried twenty kilometers under the surface of the Earth. It's for the good of the children.

Culture: only gays have it (King Boy Pato), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 02:32 (fourteen years ago)

more like gayndler, amirite

Frank O'Cotsoe (haitch), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 02:34 (fourteen years ago)

Going to soapbox for a minute. I can't believe this point is even up for discussion. The only people who want to prevent same-sex marriage are bigots. There is literally no excuse to get in the way of people minding their own business.

The Labor politicians' standard response is always 'I believe marriage is between a man and a woman' (which (a) isn't an answer to the question in any shape or form and (b) is straight-up bigotry) and then they try to prove they're not bigots by going on and on about all the rights they've given to gay people, which is exactly the same as saying 'blacks can work and vote and own property JUST LIKE US but they still have to ride at the back of the bus'.

I am so angry and appalled by this that I won't discuss it all with anyone anymore, because if I discover I'm talking to someone who opposes same-sex marriage I will immediately cut them out of my life.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 02:44 (fourteen years ago)

basically i think labor is going to change policy (espec now the faceless bros have decided they need to get more progressive) but 'due process' (ie: doing it at that conference) 'must be followed' - p lame, but that's the way the party works i guess

Frank O'Cotsoe (haitch), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:07 (fourteen years ago)

indeed

labor would pretty much have to give me a faceful of cockney urine before i would support libs tho

I know it's part of the democratic process etc etc but I still cannot believe any 'free' country has to jump through hoops of this magnitude in order to remove some pretty straight-forward discrimination.

Yeah, weird also that Labor got in on the strength of not being John Howard and immediately abandoned its new supporters by taking a prejudiced stand on so many issues. Good that such a large chunk of the party (inc. the NT branch, surprisingly) now publicly supports marriage equality, and good that Penny Wong has also stopped being a dick and started saying what she actually thinks.

btw same-sex marriage wasn't expressly illegal until Howard went out of his way to make it illegal so yeah, bigoted Labor > big-L Liberals on a good day.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:16 (fourteen years ago)

Also the 'conscience' vote is ridiculous. Essentially MPs go to their electorates to find out how many of the people they represent are bigots and formulate their official position accordingly. v clever of the Greens to introduce this conscience bill now, let the country ruminate long enough to reailse how (a) indefensible and (b) fucking stupid the debate is, then introduce the second bill calling for a change of the law.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:19 (fourteen years ago)

agh see i knew this would happen

tullamore dew hart (electricsound), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:20 (fourteen years ago)

I know, Gillard emerges as an atheist and friend of the working class, wins leadership and immediately sticks her head up her own arse.

aa (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:22 (fourteen years ago)

yeah as much as i hate to say it, it really seems like all she has going for her these days is not being abbott

Interests: eating my cookie (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 03:25 (fourteen years ago)

In fact if she had run against e.g. Turnbull there's no way she would have won that election imo. Abbott's so unsupportable that the fact that he almost won says more about Gillard than it does about him.

So: Melburnians are a friendly lot. I went to a bar at around 7:30 PM with the intention of having a couple of beers while I read a book and then retiring to my accommodation early-ish, but a couple of fellows sat down next to me and struck up a conversation, and then a couple of other folks came by as well, and by 1 AM I found myself having drunk several pints, smoked several cigarettes, and discussing literature with a 20-year-old pixie uni student.

I thought about going to ACMI/Federation Square and then maybe heading down to St. Kilda? Although this weather is looking somewhat unfavorable.

Fortunately, I did have an umbrella when that brief rain fell yesterday afternoon.

Do check out ACMI and the Ian Potter gallery in there if you can - I think its free? I havent been in ages. I live down St Kilda way (east St K) so if youre still down that side of town after 5pm we could catch up for a drink maybe! I dont have plans rly.

Pansy, I did a 12.5 hour day Monday, have done 11 hours three times a week for the last three weeks, and worked on four out of six weekend days too. Largely because they keep repeatedly setting launch for our big thing in "two days from now" instead of "when it works."

in summary

- will have no internet at home for potentially 4 weeks
- got charged $150 because the power company couldn't access a property i'm not even in possession of yet
- those direct connection companies on your real estate applications are a scam and in fact don't make life easier and definitely don't make it cheaper
- going to buy cigarettes

midiverb II program 49 (electricsound), Wednesday, 8 December 2010 04:52 (fourteen years ago)

That internet issue in particular is bullshit. I don't know why in 2010 it routinely takes ISPs several weeks to move one connection a few blocks up the road. Maybe Telstra puts the back-end kybosh on it for profits or just because it can.

Hm thats weird they were ok when we used em last move (tho it meant we got moved from Origin to Tru Energy which I wasnt happy with and roused on Rob about cos he made the decision without telling me).

And 4 weeks for new internet? You on naked DSL or something? Cos thats mental.

xpost: any delays are usually telstra ones, yeah. If the phone line/number isnt active at the new home, you cant put dsl on it. Cant put dsl on something that isnt there.

I cant speak for ISPs like ii that do their own phone lines, that said. I'm just talking about Telstra wholesale.

p4c1f1c. mostly does business stuff, relic of when i was at my old co, they gave a deal to employees

it's the same thing with my current place, the meter box is inside. i don't actually remember what happened when i moved in, i have to assume i must have been there to let them in? they seem to think it gives them license to wildly overestimate my usage though.

midiverb II program 49 (electricsound), Wednesday, 8 December 2010 05:32 (fourteen years ago)

Surely it's happened a billion times before.

indeed! why is the box even inside?! oh the joys of living in a shopfront

could be worse i guess, the people next door (if any move in) have their meter within a part of the building they're not even able to access, because it's being rented separately. lolz.

midiverb II program 49 (electricsound), Wednesday, 8 December 2010 05:33 (fourteen years ago)

Seems odd that they tried to access the place before you could. Unless you somehow gave them explicit permission/go-ahead to go into the property it sounds pretty clearly like their mistake to me.

Also why don't the power companies have a record of which properties have locked-away meter boxes? It's not like a meter box is going to change its status/location of its own free will.

best autmn alnamac with ten-letter single-word username (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 8 December 2010 05:35 (fourteen years ago)

i did ask them to connect it today but had no idea that they required access. i don't know if it's a new thing or specific to this place or w/e.

kinda moot anyway, even if i'd said tomorrow the chance of me being there when they came round was likely to be minimal. at least now i'm apparently getting a warning call when they come tomorrow.

Wish I could walk to work. I mean I walk a lot anyway but it'd be nice to have a forced lengthy walk each day. I used to walk from hotham to chapel st every morning (abt 15-20 mins) when I worked in richmond. These days I sleep in and run late too much to bother lol :/

Sookie G Stackedgarten (Trayce), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 23:13 (fourteen years ago)

if i didn't walk to/from work i pretty much would get no exercise at all so it's kinda essential for me. also it seems to be ameliorating my back pain quite a bit which is nice

midiverb II program 49 (electricsound), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 23:32 (fourteen years ago)

Yah I've found a good brisk walk loosens up my back too, esp if Ive been sitting a lot. My only problem is I have such nasty foot/leg issues that I have to wear decent shoes like runners, or I'm in worse pain.

Big retailers pushing for an overhaul of tax rules that allow foreign websites to sell products to Australians GST-free have come under fire, with claims the bid is driven by self-interested market dominators pretending to be David rather than Goliath.

A campaign backed by Myer, David Jones, Harvey Norman, Target, House, Borders, Angus & Robertson and a number of others began today with the placement of full-page advertisements in some of the nation's newspapers.

The ads call on the government to either scrap the GST for locally sold goods priced at less than $1000 or apply the same impost to goods bought from foreign sites.


All retailers notorious for charging full price for everything.

no interest*

*in serving u or in any after sales followup

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:28 (fourteen years ago)

I would never ever buy anything big ticket from Myer or HN. Why anyone would I have no idea.

That said I admit I *did* buy my DVD player from Myer but that was a long long time back and I must say, it only worked out cos *I* knew what I wanted - the "sales" man had no fucking idea. "These things can play mp3s?"

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:29 (fourteen years ago)

The whole reason I don't yet have a xmas present from 'er indoors is that every single thing I want is at least 50% cheaper online. Eventually we settled on her just paying for my wishlist on ozgameshop.com

The telly we bought recently was a local purchase, but you don't have much of a choice with stuff that has a regional tuner, and I wanted a local warranty. Just shopped around like crazy in the end, got a good 25% off the going price.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:33 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah when warrantys are involved its a diff story. I bought this current laptop rom JB for $500, ffs. HN would have sold a less-specced model for $2k, easy.

I was lucky for xmas gifts - now that N works for EA he gets freebies so I was given Sims3 + all its expansion packs for xmas. Ha.

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:36 (fourteen years ago)

aw nice.

Harvey Norman is disgusting. Apart from the odd seasonal special nothing there is ever reasonably priced. Gerry has got one hell of a cheek leading the charge on this GST crap when he could easily complete – he has mega warehousing, bulk purchasing power, everything.

The epiphany moment for me was seeing Sonic Colours in the shops brand new (simultaneous worldwide release) for $79, and buying it from the UK for $43 and having it in three days. I MEAN.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:38 (fourteen years ago)

Oh do not start me on software, thats a whole nother level of WTF headscratchery.

Visual Studio costs $710 in the US (from the MS site I guess?). In Aust, it costs $2100. FOR THE SAME FUCKING THING.

Can you just go download from the US microsoft.com, then? Can u fuk.

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:42 (fourteen years ago)

Oh man, Adobe is pulling the same shit. And they wonder why people are moved to pirate their software.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 02:52 (fourteen years ago)

ultegra groupset for bike

locally: $1700
online from UK: $805 w/ free shipping

guess which one i bought!

amusing that the retailers are going to spend money on a campaign telling people that stuff is way cheaper online, hahahaha

scrag bloc bologna (haitch), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 03:16 (fourteen years ago)

I know right? Even our old-timey parents are starting to look online for stuff, having been helpfully guided off-shore by our local industry.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 03:22 (fourteen years ago)

The comments on that article are hilarious. 239847294729234 people saying prices are 30% of local prices, interspersed by the odd person saying 'I work for Myer, buy locally so I keep my job you bastards'.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 03:48 (fourteen years ago)

Hey, i work for an australian retailer and i am dissapointed by the number of people who are buying overseas and giving our money away, Keep it in australia - so what if it costs a bit more? you are paying for australian jobs :)

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 03:56 (fourteen years ago)

xp good point, esp with all the 'keep our jobs' scaremongering. If they competed properly there would be more purchases and more shops and more economy and more jobs and etc etc.

I hate the fact that my book-loving sil stopped buying books completely because they're too expensive. When people feel bullied out of buying BOOKS something needs to change ffs.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 04:12 (fourteen years ago)

most of the stuff i buy online i wouldn't buy in australia anyway. i think it's worth what i pay for it online but not what i'd be charged locally. there is nothing these retailers can do, apart from drastically lowering their prices so they're competitive, that will get me back as a customer.

estela, Tuesday, 4 January 2011 04:18 (fourteen years ago)

It wouldn't be hard tbh. They're importing stock cheaply at the same price differential we get by buying directly from abroad, so they have no excuse at all for whacking monstrous mark-ups on everything.

I remember the local airlines getting all waaah fare discounting will kill us all waaah and yet here we are several years later with a robust airline industry. The only real difference is that more people can afford to fly now.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 04:25 (fourteen years ago)

Trayce otm, look at this:

I have 3 children, am a single mother and work for Myer - how am i supposed to feed my family if i lose my job????

Dude used to have a ferrrari in his d/way in Alex st, iirc. Or a lamborg. One of those. It looked so incongruous just sitting out in an open, crummy concrete drive.

Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Sunday, 9 January 2011 23:50 (fourteen years ago)

ikr, conspicuous sports cars are the worst.

This is a bit braggin 2011 but wvz. Last Ferrari I saw was parked on a street in Johannesburg. Double-take was the only correct response tbh.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Sunday, 9 January 2011 23:58 (fourteen years ago)

I mean you're driving along past 1/2 million homeless people in shacks and turn a corner and there's a big red Ferrari on the street, I mean

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Sunday, 9 January 2011 23:59 (fourteen years ago)

Confirmed my suspicion that the only reason people buy Ferraris is to park them in incongruous places.

goldenarsehat.jpg (Schlafsack), Sunday, 9 January 2011 23:59 (fourteen years ago)

Also (this is prob braggin 2011 too tbh) a friend of mine who like owns a company used to live in Alex St and drove a decently valuable sports car (tho not of the lamborg variety) so I'm guessing there's some wealth in that street.

Cr Newman said the Wivenhoe Dam had helped reduce Brisbane's flood risk, but inflows were large and water had to be released.

"There are inflows into Wivenhoe Dam that are akin to or exceed what happened in 1974," Cr Newman said.

"There's a lot of water coming down the system."

Holy mother of shit.

karajan camping (electricsound), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:01 (fourteen years ago)

my car is at the brisbane airport which is a complicating factor but I'm supposed to fly back on thursday and that's supposed to be the worst day of all in bris so what if I land and then can't get back to the coast, I wonder. I hope wilter that all's okay with you and your family.

estela, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:06 (fourteen years ago)

and everyone you have ever loved or just liked or even barely tolerated.

estela, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:08 (fourteen years ago)

Good chance you won't be able to, estela. Reports I was getting today were not good and it's only going to get worse. Roughly where are you in the GC?

Suppositori Spelling (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:09 (fourteen years ago)

Qld water bro was just saying that it's looking marginally better at Wivenhoe. I thought the GC will be okay and it's more getting away from the Bris airport environs that will be the problem??

yuoowemeone, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:15 (fourteen years ago)

Also same 2 u E! Only concern is my grandmother who is on her own at a decently remote property outside of gr4fton nsw that's most likely going to flood and there is lifestock to deal with :|

yuoowemeone, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 11:17 (fourteen years ago)

Ha:
A Facebook profile set up in the name of Port Arthur gunman Martin Bryant has been removed.

The Tasmanian Government had lodged an official request to have Facebook remove the profile which had a photo of Martin Bryant.

Bryant is serving 35 life sentences for the 1996 massacre.

Tasmania's Justice Department said this morning the page was not created at Hobart's Risdon Prison.

The prison's corrective services director, Robert Williams, says prisoners can not access Facebook or any other social-networking sites.

The Government sought its removal in the interest of the victims of the massacre and their families.

The fake profile purported to have backpacker murderer Ivan Milat as a friend.

I love that the ABC regard a troll facebook page as news.

saw that bob's burgers preview. looks good / wrong-o!

none of the hand-wringers ever really engage with the good bits of social media, only the 'bad'. having said that, the best thing i've read recently on the subject - gladwell in the new yorker on social media activism - wasn't that positive.

yeah, it sucks to get to see Screamadelica played in full, the Hummingbirds' only gig for 18 years, LCD Soundsystem's likely last tour in Australia ever, Grinderman, Vitalic, Ratatat, Andrew WK, Die Antwoord and Reggie Watts for FREE, wtf am I thinking?

basically just a 2/47 freak out (sic), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:50 (fourteen years ago)

shoulda stopped with 'hummingbirds'

saturday nose fever (electricsound), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:51 (fourteen years ago)

fronting, i would totes go see vitalic

saturday nose fever (electricsound), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:52 (fourteen years ago)

I'd see the Stooges but they're playing in the main arena bit so f that

basically just a 2/47 freak out (sic), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:52 (fourteen years ago)

i confess that i don't really 'get' the stooges

saturday nose fever (electricsound), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:53 (fourteen years ago)

Could see Screamadelica in full here at side show (not that I am), Hummingbirds Ive seen so many times live I could GAF if theyve reformed, Nick Cave is a twat, and I have no interest in the rest of that list.

I also wouldnt go for free! But I loathe festivals. Stand in the baking sun all day surrounded by drunk cocks with flags as capes? yeah I'll pass.

Stargazey Pi (Trayce), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 23:53 (fourteen years ago)

Actually a friend of mine made a good point: why are we paying a levee to cover this when we're in surplus? why not use the surplus?

And what of people who have already donated to the floods? Do they get an exemption?

Crocodiles Gonna Croc (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 27 January 2011 02:22 (fourteen years ago)

xp to Trayce: We're not in surplus though, not until 2012-13 iirc. Also donations go to immediate help whereas this tax will go to long-term restructuring &c.

xp to Pato: hahaha yes. So basically if you earn say $100k you'll be paying an extra $1,000 in tax. wah fscking wah. I think if you're on +$100k you can spare a grand tbh.

I'm not defensive cos as I said I don't read any single board (except once a week seeing if there's anything interesting on ILC that I missed via SNA) - just pointing out that it's totes strawmanning, bcz in this bold new world we all create our own ILeXperience. it's a KIP utopia! and if one is not living in it, it's because of something the user is choosing to do.

ie I still feel like I read plenty of interesting threads on ILX that talk about music, without ever going to I Love Music

^^^^^ TONY ABBOTT IN HILARIOUS CORPSING MOMENT

MAYBE THIS WILL END HIS CAREER

Dakota Yasi Boganpants (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 12:30 (fourteen years ago)

Annoyingly, given what a cunt Abbott is, I don't really see anything wrong with what he said in context. If he's to be crucified over this, it will be the FAILURE of reporters, not the success of some kind of gotcha. As I lamented on teh Twitter, Australians are such lazy bastards. We'd rather go bat-shit over this and watch Q&A - i.e. interface with the media, rather than do the tedious business of getting properly political and discussing facts and consequences and policy and that, which means the media controls us. And someone like Abbott who needs to be brought down will only ever get brought down by a soundbite, and perhaps not even then.

If the media did their job, or we demanded a better media... well we'd probably have Stephen Smith as PM and Malcolm Turnbull as Opposition Leader. And we'd be a fuckload better off for it.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 13:08 (fourteen years ago)

otm.

mind you, chris pyne is on lateline rerun now assuring us that abbott is "a real person who says real things" - here's a real thing pyne, you look like a retarded ferret.

scraping Doritos off the wheel (haitch), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 13:41 (fourteen years ago)

some bro sent this into crikey mailbag today:

The lack of policy scrutiny and debate can be attributed to the coverage of any announcement from the Federal Government being left to the political journos. Their only interest in the political cut and thrust of an issue and indeed this is about all they seem capable of.

Most have a frighteningly shallow understanding of policy across the broad range of government activity -- as is evidenced by the inane questioning we are now able to see courtesy of Sky and ABC News24's broadcasting of media conferences live and in their entirety. When they have exhausted their stock question on the policy area in question, the political hacks descend into irrelevancies like what class of seat will be given to Australians being evacuated from Egypt by Qantas or what the PM thinks of Australia's latest sporting win.

There would be a significant improvement in policy debate in this country if the reporting of policy announcements was lead by specialist rounds reporters, with the political hacks reduced to adding a comment or side bar at the end about the political implications. The media effectiveness of a three word slogan or five second sound bite would be significantly undermined by the informed scrutiny of a rounds' reporter.

Live crosses on TV to the rounds reporter -- and not the political correspondent -- for analysis would further enhance the quality of information provided to viewers. For example. not only would any decent defence correspondent have asked the questions about Australia's amphibious capability indicated by James Brown, but they wouldn't have been distracted by another story outside their portfolio e.g. the floods.

Of course, one can hear the cry now from the mainstream media -- but we can't afford to use more rounds reporters. Well, try cutting the ridiculous salaries paid to many of the "star" political reporters and spreading those savings around. After all, they'll only be writing sidebars to the policy stories from now on.

scraping Doritos off the wheel (haitch), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 13:47 (fourteen years ago)

Well, yes. Let's say you were a sports reporter, and you knew fuck all about sports. You would get fired.

And yet, Annabell Crabb is on some astonishing six figure sum apparently. Where's the justice, I ask.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 13:49 (fourteen years ago)

a quarter-mill, i seem to recall!

at least she was a bit reflective after the election about this stuff; really the only other time this has been touched on by mainstream media was the australian outing that 'grogs gamut' guy for raising the exact same point - the person who raises the issue becomes the story again, and the points raised got forgotten.

scraping Doritos off the wheel (haitch), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 13:57 (fourteen years ago)

Oh her contrition shits me. Polluting The Drum (further) with an article about how she's not going to write articles about polls anymore. Oh very good, let's all clap her for taking a stand against a trend in reporting that she has perpetrated and prospered from. She doesn't know anything about politics beyond caricaturing people, and she makes five times what I do, the bitch.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 14:25 (fourteen years ago)

Annoyingly, given what a cunt Abbott is, I don't really see anything wrong with what he said in context.

He should have know to not say that about the death of a soldier, even on the periphery of the issue. He's a twat and he brought all this on himself. I think he knows that, and I think that's why he corpsed in front of Riley.

Dakota Yasi Boganpants (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 20:22 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah the soliders themselves wd probably say "sometimes shit happens" - AT A BAR GETTINg DRUNK or something. But ffs abbott was on TV and he knew it.

Senor DingDong (Trayce), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 20:41 (fourteen years ago)

otm

I can't help wondering if after that Lateline 'shit happens Tony' interview he's regarded it as his own special catchphrase and just slots it in everywhere hey-now style.

Dakota Yasi Boganpants (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 21:15 (fourteen years ago)

The problem is, that what someone says DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING. Journalists should be looking at what he plans to do and assessing it. The Liberal Party is not stupid enough to let their man be hung out to dry because of this. He will survive. And if he makes it to the next election, he will annihilate Gillard, mark my words.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:05 (fourteen years ago)

Oh, both Abbott and the press are out of line in this case, definitely.

Also, I disagree that Abbott will annihilate Gillard and become prime minister because GAGAGRGRGARRARGHRAHH SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP

He's an intellectual fraud with damaging ideas concerned with nothing mroe than being Prime Minister, probably so he can use the hefty pay rise to pay off his mortgage. But only the first part ever gets any disscusion, and guess what, Australia doesn't care - he's AUTHENTIC and UNSCRIPTED. And no, in the context of meaning that the tragedy was nobody's fault, "shit happens" is just fodder for cranky twitterers rather than something that will sway SWINGING VOTERS away from him. If this is all people who hate Abbott have to hang on to, then we have no chance. He owns us.

And sorry, if it's a Gillard v Abbott rematch, Abbott will win. Because Gillard too is a fraud concerned with nothing more than being Prime Minister, reading focus groups, yowling in her fake, fake, fake accent and resolutely refusing to defend her government's choices and strategy, and any time Abbott does anything, she will copy him. She made this far right lunatic look acceptable last year by pretty much validating all of his batshit crazy positions. Gillard is to the right of Howard on nearly everything except IR ffs.

Yes his words didn't mean anything, but he's operating in a sphere in which words ARE everything. He wasn't born yesterday, he knows that.

I don't think Abbott will last much longer because he's been performing against type for more than a year now. He used to be the loose cannon of the party, reliably firing off foot-in-mouth remarks and embarrassing positions left right and centre. There's no way he can sustain this new weird Ruddesque robot façade all the way to the next election.

ugh xp

Words aren't everything, because this is a little bit of an exciting story that will sell newspapers and make people watch 7 News. But come polling day, there's not a single voter who will change their vote away from the Coalition because of it. Most people who think this was a reprehensible act probably already thought Abbott was reprehensible to begin with.

What a politician in a leadership position says seldom costs them their job unless it reinforces some voter-repelling thing about them in the minds of their party.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:27 (fourteen years ago)

I agree that nobody will change their votes because of this, but I do think it's a crack in Abbott's façade that will continue to widen, and that is what could cost him his future.

What a politician in a leadership position says seldom costs them their job unless it reinforces some voter-repelling thing about them in the minds of their party.

Saying 'shit happens' about a dead soldier is about as Liberal-voter-repelling as you can get, so good luck to him.

Liberal voters don't care about that sort of thing. They hear BIG NEW TAX BIG NEW TAX BROWN PEOPLE INVADING BOATS BOATS BOATS and they like the sound of it. They'd overlook "shit happens" even if it WAS a big deal.

I'm all out of cock, I'm so lost without you (edwardo), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:37 (fourteen years ago)

They'd overlook everything because the Liberal-loving contingent in this country is the most loyal cult there is atm. I've never seen anything like it. This bloke could be stabbing children in the face and the cult would find some way to spin it positively.

Gillard too is a fraud concerned with nothing more than being Prime Minister, reading focus groups, yowling in her fake, fake, fake accent and resolutely refusing to defend her government's choices and strategy, and any time Abbott does anything, she will copy him. She made this far right lunatic look acceptable last year by pretty much validating all of his batshit crazy positions.

Actually the rusted on Labor voters can be cult-like. And Greens voters, about half of them act like they're in a cult too. It isn't so much a partisan thing. Australians just aren't very sophisticated or thoughtful about democracy. They're forced to participate, but fewer than 20% really engage.

True, but the Liberal cult is enormous and utterly, utterly brainwashed. I don't know a single Labor or Greens supporter who isn't willing to criticise their party of choice, but seriously all but one of the dozens of Liberal cultists I know are 100% loyal and deny everything bad their party does. It's really quite scary in a Village of the Damned kind of way.

hopefully the presets will return soon and save australian music

miss pansy twist (electricsound), Monday, 14 February 2011 23:54 (fourteen years ago)

I have a theory on how the new presets album will go down:

- it will be different from the last two
- it will be critically acclaimed and become a firm all-time classic
- nobody will buy it
- moyes and hamilton will spend the next 20 years collaborating with commercially unsuccessful artists

mutual can man (Schlafsack), Monday, 14 February 2011 23:58 (fourteen years ago)

- ????
- profit

miss pansy twist (electricsound), Monday, 14 February 2011 23:59 (fourteen years ago)

I think this might be an unpopular opinion but I cannot think of a single Australian pop song in the last 10 years that I hate more than "My People" by the Presets.

I did like "This Boy's In Love" though! It's just "My People" that I think makes me want to attack people with knives, every single sound in it fills me with anger.

All the people who are outraged/applauding this are the usual suspects on the left/right. You don't really hear the opinions of people on the middle ground, which Shrek could sway with his more tolerant opinions 4u rather than the endless "Stop The Boats" soundbites. I do know people who wanted to vote Liberal federally but didn't because Abbott creeped them out a bit too much.

Of course, this is all wishful thinking on my part, in the hope that a more moderate Liberal leader could bring some dignity to proceedings. I AM OBVIOUSLY QUITE MAD IN THE HEAD.

I sent an intemperate email this morning to Scott Morrison;

To Mr Scott Morrison

Regarding your recent comments on the costs of asylum seekers attending funerals in Sydney: you really are a revolting specimen, aren't you? And how much have taxpayers spent shuttling you around the country so that you can make your bigoted pronouncements in front of different backdrops? And I doubt you always choose the cheapest seats in order to protect the public purse.

However, I'm willing to personally donate the cost of a one-way air ticket to you, on condition that you go to another country and never return. Perhaps you'd like to go to Iran or Afghanistan, made so wonderfully safe by your party when in they were in power. In fact, I'll donate double the amount, so that you can take some up-and-coming Young Liberal with you and save us all a lot of pain in the future.

Yours in disgust that we share a surname,

James Morrison

I know personal abuse probably isn;t the way to approach these things, but my calm, reasoned emails to MPs never get me anywhere either, so fuck it.

The only positive thought I can think about this is that 50 years ago they thought the Italians and Greeks would never integrate and that at some point, these fuqs will look as stupid in hindsight. Don't get me wrong, I think there's a legitimate discussion to be made, but politicians aren't the ones who should be leading it.

It's basically not even about Muslims, just any brown people really. I don't recall anyone kicking up a stink about any of the Bosnians we have here. The Turkish are fairly successfully integrated. And as for Sydney's "Lebanese problem", a) lots of them are Catholics, and b) there's Lebanese in other cities and they aren't a problem which suggests that this problem is because of something to do with Sydney itself.

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Thursday, 17 February 2011 02:01 (fourteen years ago)

I see no reason why ethnic groups need to "integrate" if they don't want to, as long as they obey the law.

Zelda Zonk, Thursday, 17 February 2011 02:09 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah the "lebanese problem" is a peculiarly Sydney thing that I dont think I understand.

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 02:12 (fourteen years ago)

As usual the perceived lack of integration comes from like 0.001% of the people of a certain ethnicity who get around being violent or whatever. Here we keep hearing about how horribly aggressive the Veeetmaneeese are and how they sell drugs and eat dogs and &c. but I've never come across a single vina who was anything less than lovely (including the two weeks we spent there).

On the integration thing: in Melb we grew up surrounded by STOP THE ASIAN INVASION posters and look at the mighty hole Australia didn't collapse into. So very tired of bigots.

Also, if Morrison and his type went to live in Scarypeoplistan I seriously doubt he would take any steps at all to integrate with their society.

I understand the need for Aus to keep its identity, language etc. (it's not racist simply to want to preserve and strengthen one's culture) but that doesn't come at the expense of foreigners moving here. It just doesn't, ever. I mean christ, I can bet most Aus kids with Asian-native parents can speak two languages and basically live on Vegemite.

Sure, everyone should integrate. Doesn't mean abandoning your culture. Just means obeying the law and respecting your neighbour. And by an large 99% of immigrants do this, or try to. For the ones that don't do it successfully, we need to look at what we're doing more than what they're doing.

Also, Scott Morrison represents one of the, if not THE, whitest areas of Sydney. The only time he has to think about Muslims is when they go to Cronulla. Hey, why doesn't he just come out and say "Brown people don't need to come to the beach. Didn't they come here to get away from sand?". COCK.

If that's all integration means, then sure. But it's a pretty loaded term, most people would assume it encompasses cultural integration as well, ie questions about Don Bradman and the like on the Oz citizenship test.

When someone says culture, I reach for my gun. 99% of the population is completely disinterested in the matter, but our society is worth protecting. One of the few decent points Howard ever made (lamentably ruined with racist dog-whistling).

But srsly, we have things that define our society for the better. You know, we're a largely secular state with freedom of religion and from religion (mostly). Women are at least approaching equality with men vis-a-vis human rights (if not earning rights). We speak English but provide services to speakers of other languages. We have a fairly robust welfare system (with a few people falling through the cracks but cf the USA!). I challenge anyone to deny that as far as health of society goes, we aren't at least in the top 10%, maybe even 1% of the population of the world and that people born here won the lottery as far as lifestyle and opportunity goes.

I think there's a really big difference between wanting to defend that and wanting to protect some kind of "nebulous culture", and if we were a more mature society (our own major failing is that) we would be able to draw a meaningful distinction.

And if immigrants want to come here and challenge the fundamentals of our mostly secular, at least vaguely egalitarian society, then they can fuck off. If they just wanna do their own thing and be good Australians in their own way, then BRING THEM IN BY THE BOAT LOAD, THE PLANE LOAD, WHATEVER. Send back the fuckers from other countries who go on about how much they hate it here and how New Zealand is nicer and Britain is more civilised to make room for our good Muslim brothers and sisters, says I.

Trayce: I don't think anyone currently in this country IS doing that or trying to. But if there were pushes to do so I'd kick against it. Hence, I am pro-immigration wherever it comes from. (yes, building up a straw-man to tear it down is cheap rhetoric).

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Thursday, 17 February 2011 03:36 (fourteen years ago)

OK I am confused now, are people thinking I am anti immigration or something? Huh?

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 03:37 (fourteen years ago)

I can't see anything in what you've said that suggests you are anti-immigration. Or that anyone in this thread is!

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Thursday, 17 February 2011 03:38 (fourteen years ago)

I was simply saying I dont see what culture we have to defend, seeing as if I asked a dozen of my friends, they'd come up with a dozen completely different things that are totally a part of their world (be that meat pies, Shabbos, banh mi rolls, the footy, or going to church on sunday)

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 03:38 (fourteen years ago)

Really Im p sure we're all preaching to the choir with each other here anyway rite heh.

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 03:39 (fourteen years ago)

And if immigrants want to come here and challenge the fundamentals of our mostly secular, at least vaguely egalitarian society, then they can fuck off. If they just wanna do their own thing and be good Australians in their own way, then BRING THEM IN BY THE BOAT LOAD, THE PLANE LOAD, WHATEVER. Send back the fuckers from other countries who go on about how much they hate it here and how New Zealand is nicer and Britain is more civilised to make room for our good Muslim brothers and sisters, says I.

Have to say I don't really understand this attitude. To my mind, the sole duty of people living here, migrants or otherwise, is to obey the law. Whether they want to challenge the fundamentals of Australian society, whether they think New Zealand is a better country or whatever, is a total irrelevance in a tolerant society, as long as people do their thing within the boudaries of the law. Personally, I'm Australian, and yet there are things I don't like about the country, there probably are fundamentals I'd like to change about it, and I'm sure that in some respects NZ is a nicer place to live and Britain is more civilised. Perhaps I should have my citizenship revoked!

Which reminds me, when you down here again?

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:11 (fourteen years ago)

The things I see as innate to Australianism and culture, having been away from home for a long time

- quick to laugh. We see the joke when no one else does.
- genuine. Very little artifice in Australians, no desire to impress. We don't over inflate ourselves to make a good impression.
- work as a means to an end. Country was built by prisoners and people who were just kind of stuck here. We don't have the mythology of a national "dream" to shame us into devoting our lives to a career. We work hard, but we know how to switch it off.
- we look outward, and our culture by it's nature embraces those around us...we don't think we know it all.
- religion is, for the most part, not political, and private enough to not be a cultural decider, in a way, it's almost not important

That's what I see now, after time away, feels very daggy to say it though ... Which might be another good cultural signifier is that we don't actually define ourselves by our patriotism, or our flag, we just sort of "feel" Australian, which nebulous though it may be is kind of a good and modest trait to have,
Humility, maybe thats it.

Apologies for any dorky nostalgia, I do miss home quite a bit :/

The Marquis de Sade Adu (sic), Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:32 (fourteen years ago)

In addition to VegGrrl's ace post, a few more things that define Aus culture/identity off the top of my head (some perhaps becoming extinct):

- great australian dream (home ownership)
- sports sports and more facking sports
- cultural cringe
- self-deprecation
- she'll-be-right attitude (i.e. relatively relaxed about bad things)

Last week on In Gordon St Tonight, Arj Barker made a wonderful point about Australians: that we can identify something that someone does/says/wears/etc and say 'that's so Australian!' and that that in itself is uniquely Australian, i.e. our sense of what constitutes the national identity is very, very strong. As a point of contrast, he said you don't ever see an American look at someone holding say a doughnut/some fried chicken and go 'that's so American!'

On the same show, Melissa George said she saw footage of a bloke in Qld who had lost everything and was just grinning at the camera saying something like 'at least the beer's cold!'

I'm probably not explaining myself very well (cold brain) but to me the Aus national identity is pretty damn strong and absolutely deserves to be preserved in some way (although the idea that immigration will destroy it is fkn nonsense).

NB: I'm aware that loads of the above stuff applies to NZ as well but hey.

na pohybel juno roxas (Schlafsack), Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:41 (fourteen years ago)

I mean in all the places I've been (including NZ) the culture closest to our own is South Africa, believe it or not, yet their culture is so richly colourful and deeply divided that even they have trouble pinning down their national identity, much less being able to identify what makes them who they are.

na pohybel juno roxas (Schlafsack), Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:45 (fourteen years ago)

Oh that's good, I know exactly what you mean, you said it really well actually!!!

VegemiteGrrl, Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:47 (fourteen years ago)

- great australian dream (home ownership)

not exclusively an "aussie thing"
- sports sports and more facking sports
Nor is this
- cultural cringe
- self-deprecation
OK these 2 I will buy

- she'll-be-right attitude (i.e. relatively relaxed about bad things)
And maybe this one yeah but this isnt cultural its just um... hrm. Lemme think about this.

Trayce, Thursday, 17 February 2011 04:47 (fourteen years ago)

It's all those things together Trayce. Also 'the great Australian dream' is definitely a unique Aus thing - not the concept of owning a home but how firmly it's become entrenched in the national identity.

Just that it always seems the most vocal advocates both for and against actually have very little contact with the Muslim population.

sex cells (S-), Thursday, 17 February 2011 05:00 (fourteen years ago)

Also re travelling, ime Australians on holiday abroad stick together like no other nationality I've seen, but in a way that's totally open and lets in everybody else; so much so that other people regularly remark upon it. Seeing it in action and being part of it is really quite weird but very comforting. It's that whole mateship thing in action.

xp I don't have contact with Muslims in housing commission flats, no, but I don't have contact with Asians or Africans or Europeans or fourth-gen white Australians in housing commission flats either.

Henderson is just a troll. If the editors got the idea he was hurting circulation they'd bin his column but far from it, he encourages outrage, discussion and spread of the paper's brand name in wider discourse = i.e. his shit columns are good for the paper's circulation. Why? Because STUPID LEFTIES* DO NOT GET IT - JUST IGNORE THE TROLLING.

* not all lefties are stupid, of course!

Well I for one dont read the HS at all (nor news.com.au) or watch TT/ACA, so I'm doing my bit. Why give it revenue and exposure? I in fact have a policy that no one is allowed to watch TT/ACA in my house - I dont care if you are my mother - and if I am at someone elses home and it comes on, I will leave the room.

Trayce otm. I have exactly the same TT/ACA policy.

I also refuse to give money or patronage to ANY News Corp property (including Foxtel, HarperCollins books, GQ magazine etc etc). If a Fox production is on the telly we will tape it or get it off the internet to be sure the melting candle does not get our money in any way shape or form. It's extreme but stuff it, unlike most people who whine about things I actually stand by my convictions.

xp oh yes, I actually had a twitter user get angry with me because he kept sending me disguised news ltd links in the hope that I'd accidentally click them. Eventually I told him I wouldn't click any link he sent me ever as a mitigation and he went spastic at me.

xxxp argh xp hell

re: bigots. I wish the Liberal party weren't bigots, yes, but this is the thing. NEARLY EVERYONE who is bitching about Morrison et al are people who have been practising or preaching the idea that you cannot EVER vote for anyone apart from Labor or the Greens at least since Howard. I don't see why the Liberal Party should do what a whole bunch of people who have disengaged with them completely if they're getting enough votes to be winning. I mean, god, I'd hate an Abbott government and I'd be on the first plane to New Zealand, but I do not understand why people think clamouring for "moderation" is going to make it so.

Turnbull had his change and squibbed it. He could have defected, started a party of his own or become Labor or a Green, god knows he's flexible enough to fit anywhere due to his non-ideological bent (liking money is not ideological, k?), secured us a robust ETS and done other things and made his place in history. Sure it's sad he didn't, but Hockey or some other moderate's not going to do any better.

God, I even miss Brendan Nelson. He had some actual bona fide social work credentials!

NEARLY EVERYONE who is bitching about Morrison et al are people who have been practising or preaching the idea that you cannot EVER vote for anyone apart from Labor or the Greens at least since Howard.

Nah. There are definitely a lot of Labour/Greens fanboys around atm, but I'm aware of a hell of a lot of people who want to support much of what the Liberal party stands for but without all the bigotry and social irresponsibility. That Liberal party seems to exist in there somewhere, it's just being trampled on by the noisy aggressive craphole contingent which is riding a wave of collective hate and misdirected blame (e.g. conflating asylum seekers with peak hour traffic, seriously wtf).

I disagree that Gillard is that right-wing. She's to the left of Abbott and Howard but she's also nothing at all. She's beholden to about 50 billion factions of the party (having made a load of promises to a load of people over many years), and she's also too shitscared to differentiate herself from the opposition, which is a truly appalling way to run a democracy. Labor is a pack of robots and it's lost great swathes of support as a result. Add the bleating murdoch press to the mix and the outlook is bleak for anyone who isn't a freaking lunatic.

Head goes goes goes (Schlafsack), Friday, 18 February 2011 02:42 (fourteen years ago)

also too shitscared to differentiate herself from the opposition, which is a truly appalling way to run a democracy.

i.e. she's willing to run as someone more rightwing than Howard. Because Abbott is to the right of Howard.

And I did say nearly everyone. I am serious here. Most of the people I know going apopleptic over this wouldn't vote Liberal in a pink fit no matter WHO was leading the sorry mess. Thing is, if you look at the charters of nearly every mainstream party, you'll see nothing that 90% of Australians wouldn't agree with. People have forgotten that.

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Friday, 18 February 2011 02:45 (fourteen years ago)

Gillard is also unmistakeably to the right of Howard on education, for starters. She doesn't believe in a Big Australia either, so she's not really significantly left of Howard on immigration - Howard's worst excesses in that department were all rhetorical, plenty of north-shore-scaring people still got into the country under his watch and are doing just fine and model citizens, thank you very much. Howard wanted an ETS. Gillard wanted an ETS as long as it was OK with Tony Abbott.

Again, I don't think lacking initiative/courage/balls means she's right-wing, it just means she's pointless. If her opposition were Mao Zedong she might well promise to exceed his steel and wheat yields by 20%.

Also, if you look at the charters of both major parties, they're so far from their respective parties as to be completely unrecognisable.

miss pansy twist (electricsound), Friday, 18 February 2011 03:12 (fourteen years ago)

sic, they don't know we're watching/taping it because we're not metered, and by not watching the ads we're depriving the advertisers of the awareness they require to pick up a return on their investment. I'm not trying to change the world but if 2.4m Australians did what I'm doing murdoch would not be in business here.

Trayce, Friday, 18 February 2011 03:21 (fourteen years ago)

if 2.4m Australians boycotted News publications, and the FEER, and Harper Collins, and the Dow, and all films produced or distributed by 20th Century Fox or Fox Searchlight or Fox 2000 or Regency, and the NRL, and never went to a gig at the Forum in Sydney, or to any gig that was ticketed by Moshtix, then maybe it would put a dent in their operations.

2.4 million people not watching some ads that they'd miss anyway when they go out of the room to have a wee/make a cup of tea, or reply to a text/check twitter on their phone, I'm prepared to say would make approx. fuck all difference.

Trayce, Friday, 18 February 2011 03:34 (fourteen years ago)

And not even .024 million would even bother. Australians wouldn't know a protest if it crept up behind them and dropped the buttraep on them!

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Friday, 18 February 2011 03:48 (fourteen years ago)

so true. when momz is arguing about whatever big social issue she's against, i usually play the "maybe you should get out there and actively protest against it then, rather than just moaning to me about it!" card

phwoar tit (haitch), Friday, 18 February 2011 03:52 (fourteen years ago)

Hard to know where to draw the line with that tbh. I support people having an opinion without necessarily joining a protest group, but I also wonder how compassionate people can e.g. buy cage eggs when there's an rspca-approved option next to it.

Head goes goes goes (Schlafsack), Friday, 18 February 2011 04:03 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah definitely. Thing is, the free-range eggs genuinely DO taste better. (This is not actually true for free range chickens which I find astonishing).

My mum and I argue a lot about morals and religion and I was really really proud when she took a stand against her local church raising money so locals could go to the beatification of Mary McKillop. She stopped going to her local parish and told them "There are poor starving people in Africa, we should be raising money for them instead of sending rich Australians to Rome to worship a dead woman." or WTTE.

Brilliant.

Recently my mother went on a rampage about Shaun Micallef because 10 years ago he did a sketch about Weary Dunlop in a dress. She hadn't seen it, just heard on talkback radio that it had happened and boycotted him. Not sure how she recopnciles that with voting for the worst bigot in every election. Also not sure how a man wearing a dress is any kind of insult but hey, I'm just some sort of pinko.

Trayce, Sunday, 20 February 2011 23:37 (fourteen years ago)

They did, due to db problems or some such. Was supposed to be in there at 1 pm, only just received an EMAIL YES EMAIL saying 'oh noes, btw don't come in'. Good job I don't live/work in like Diamond Creek or summat.

I thought they'd at least do the information session, you know, what are the textbooks, what are the subjects, who are the lecturers, is rodney dangerfield one of them etc, hence the name 'information session'. At least I have time & room number for the first class now.

Also I have nfi what sort of people will be doing this thing (am sincerely hoping it's not all bored 50yo housewives/househusbands; went through that in yr 2 of degree course, was a disaster).

egregious fannydangling (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 21 February 2011 02:18 (fourteen years ago)

-flying into hanoi
-??????
-about 10 days later flying from Ho CHi Minh to Siem Reap
-staying at some hotel near angkor wat for for 3 days
-back to brisbane
-have heard from several ppl that halong bay is mad overrated???

yuoowemeone, Monday, 21 February 2011 02:20 (fourteen years ago)

-staying at angkor waht becuz it was a gift tbh

yuoowemeone, Monday, 21 February 2011 02:22 (fourteen years ago)

- !!!!!!!!
- hanoi is my all-time fave foreign city in the world
- halong bay is mad awesome but don't panic if you're missing it
- ho cho minh, meh, good for shopping + food, feels like an inferior hong kong otherwise (ymmv)
- angkor wtf is pretty gd spectacular (btw how does one stay AT the temple, are your benefactors rich/extremely lucky)
- siem reap is weird (govt corruption = no infrastructure, roads underwater &c.)

If you don't yet know how to cross the road, indicate as such and I will provide a simple primer (it's actual life and death so)

Head goes goes goes (Schlafsack), Monday, 21 February 2011 02:28 (fourteen years ago)

Head goes goes goes (Schlafsack), Monday, 21 February 2011 02:30 (fourteen years ago)

hey thanx. yeah sorry not staying @ angkor wat, it's some hotel that is the 'closest hotel to Angkor wat' or something. and we're getting picked up at siem reap airport and ferried around apaz.

that is v encouraging abt Hanoi. i do not know how to cross the road

yuoowemeone, Monday, 21 February 2011 02:33 (fourteen years ago)

as you can tell, we're super unorganised at this stage

yuoowemeone, Monday, 21 February 2011 02:35 (fourteen years ago)

ah coolo. Siem Reap airport is new and pretty nice, and the road leading out of it through the tourist district is fine, but once you get near the locals it all falls apart spectacularly. No surprise since Siem Reap only really exists for the tourists, but the govt corruption is on proud display all over the place. Nothing bad should happen though, it's not like the place is a crime hotspot or anything (at least as far as we know).

Orrite, instructions for crossing the road: everyone (esp in Hanoi) gets about on motorbikes, and nobody stops at crossings or lights ever (although they do sometimes stop on the big 3-lane roads). When you want to cross:

- don't bother trying to find a crossing
- if the traffic is ignoring the traffic signals, you can ignore them too
- step out into the traffic slowly, say 1/3 normal walking pace
- walk steadily at that pace until you reach the other side; stay together, do not stop, do not speed up
- the motorbikes will weave VERY tightly around you but will not hit you

Best way to get the hang of it is to stand on the street outside your hotel and watch a few locals doing it.

Don't be put off by this though; once you've done it a few times it becomes second nature. And you have to do it anyway, because Hanoi is just a giant network of tiny roads full of bikes. If you want to do anything at all you have to cross at least a few roads.

So sick of the content providers/distributors blaming everyone but themselves for missing the tech bus.

One of the key reasons Borders/A&R went down last week is that they tried to screw the consumer by inflating prices. I know people who just stopped buying books because they couldn't justify the cost. These people are horribly short-sighted and just completely clueless.

In the past week I've bought two albums and one book. Both albums were reasonably priced downloads and the book cost $21 inc shipping from the UK ($35 in a shop locally).

Most people are willing to fairly access these things but either physically can't (the supply chain actively locks them out) or the price they're asking is offensive.

There's a problem with ebooks now. Loads of the ebook retailers abroad won't sell here because they've signed pacts with the devil or something. I don't get it, here I am waving money and they won't take it.

xxp yeah I saw that, about Apple not responding to the strong AU currency. To be fair Apple's one of the better players in hardware terms (goods here aren't as ludicrously overpriced as many other companies' offerings) but there's no excuse at all for the itunes racket.

i just don't like the inconsistency - particularly when both labels involved have their non-licensed releases available, but when a record is licensed between the two labels (slumberland/fortuna pop for example) it is unavailable to australia through either label, which makes fuck all sense

hangon are you being sarky?

no!

yesterday's twat (sic), Thursday, 24 February 2011 05:56 (fourteen years ago)

i think i am confused by what you said!

racing up the fuck charts (electricsound), Thursday, 24 February 2011 05:57 (fourteen years ago)

there is music i will never ever buy because the dipshit local licensee don't want to make it available for a reasonably priced download

that other local licensees get digital as part of the rights doesn't nec mean that Spunk do in the cases you notice - I have exactly 0 idea whether it's down to Spunk or not, was wondering if you know for sure that it *is*

(also it's possible that Spunk do have the rights but don't have the infrastructure to handle it in a way that makes economic sense for them? again idk anything abt local specifics of this, I hate "buying" digital and have done it rarely and mostly direct from the artist)

yesterday's twat (sic), Thursday, 24 February 2011 10:38 (fourteen years ago)

yeah look tbh i don't know the specifics of what they do wrt digital. i think they stand out (p0pfr3nzy also frustrate me about this) as a label that via their local licensing mean my choices are reduced to physical cds or itunes, neither of which i am interested in. seems bitterly ironic that local licensing actually makes something more of a pain in the ass to buy than less...

anyway i realise my hobbyhorsing on this is p dull so

mostly direct from the artist

this is ideal

h-man nearly saw m&n "buzz band" st0n3field last night but joined me in seeing some fairly entertaining stooges ripoff at yah yahs instead

racing up the fuck charts (electricsound), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:34 (fourteen years ago)

I have happily handed over my dime direct to bands for digital content recently. I feel weird buying CDs now - I just dont play them. But if little bands like Home Video can get my money then all the better.

berk psychosis (Trayce), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:47 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, CDs just take up space. You're paying for a licence to use the music rather than the music itself so not having a physical copy isn't too big a deal. Where I draw the line is when they charge more for the digital version despite the complete lack of manufacturing, distribution, warehousing &c; there's no justifying that.

Head goes goes goes (Schlafsack), Thursday, 24 February 2011 22:51 (fourteen years ago)

Yep.

I'll still buy records. I love records.

iiTrial: A green light to disconnect pirates

Today’s judgement by the Full Bench of the Federal Court could clear the way for internet service providers to disconnect subscribers accused of copyright infringement.

The majority ruling in the split judgement handed down today gives internet service providers no absolute protection over the actions of their subscribers.

The judgement also determined that, should the film industry improve the way it delivers infringement notices and pay for ISPs to vet them, it would be a “reasonable step” for ISPs to disconnect customers accused of infringement in these notices.

egregious fannydangling (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 25 February 2011 20:57 (fourteen years ago)

Wait, huh? I thought the appeal was dimissed, am I missing soething?

(PS a lot of ISPs already block you if yr spamming etc anyway)

hi dere mongs

Sorry I haven't been in touch Melbournites. I got into Melb on Tuesday, got into a taxi, arrived at work and promptly collapsed. So this week has been a complete write-off. Oh, as they say, well.

re: iinet, happy to explain all this a bit more, my housemate works as an associate for Justice 3mm3tt so was able to explain what this means, but basically, the finding is not a good one if you do enjoy downloading things. Do not celebrate.

I don't wanna be with nobody but boobs. Oh no. (edwardo), Saturday, 26 February 2011 07:08 (fourteen years ago)
