Yes, I must be on the payroll because I believe it’s in Australia’s interest to have a productive & mutually beneficial relationship with our key trading partner and, while I dislike China’s political system, I admire the fact they have lifted 800 million people out of poverty.

No, I want Aus to partner with China. The US regularly hacks its allies, is deliberately trying to goad Taiwan into declaring independence, has surrounded China with 400 military bases & wants to illegally annex Gaza. I much prefer China’s “win-win” philosophy over US “win at any cost” hegemony.

Australia’s defense policy is lunacy. We’re spending $400B to protect our trade routes with China from China. The US is a sinking ship, instead of demonizing China we should be partnering with them.

The LNP granted citizenship to over 26,000 migrants before the 2022 election when Dutton was Home Affairs Minister. Was he vote buying too?

Well that’s one way to launder Dutton’s lies. The gutlessness of the media in this country is maddening.

Based on Zelnick’s recent comments I think there is a good chance GTA 6 will be delayed to launch on PC & console simultaneously. The console market is half the size it was in 2013 & PC gaming is much bigger.

YouGov is useless. Especially their massive sample size poll modeling. These are the fools who confidently predicted Harris would win based on a 100,000 respondent, all states model.

Thanks Poss. Good explanation.

Genuine Q Possum, under what power would the AG be able to intervene in this matter? It’s a civil matter, doesn’t relate to the constitution or the Human Rights Act and was brought by a private individual not the ABC.

Shout out to Friendly Jordies for originally exposing the vomit inducing idiot fest video.

You’re gonna grade the film so it doesn’t look like a Netflix show, right?

I’m with Louis on this one. He’s totally right about Linus shifting blame and making himself out to be the victim. The additional context that Linus didn’t show actually makes him look worse. He was more worried about himself than his audience WRT Honey.

None of those are a win. Unless, you’re a whiny, mediocre, delicate little snowflake that doesn’t have a clue about how the government actually works & you’re secretly trans because Trump affirmed all American males are actually female. Is that you?

You’re here for thousands of devs losing their jobs? That’s pretty fk’d up. If Ubisoft fails the Guillemots will be fine. They’ve all got golden parachutes. It’s the devs that will suffer. Origins is actually a pretty good game and not a boring slog fest like Valhalla.

Except for the opening tutorial, you can play the entire game as Naoe. You’re free to switch characters in place outside of combat. I don’t have a problem with Yasuke as a character but will probably only use him to taken on Guardians. Gotta play the game first though.
