Yes, there are - see GDPR as another example.

That isn’t a legal way around the age verification laws.

Well they can do shit - they can put out arrest warrants and fines, and possibly have the person extradited to the UK depending on the country.

No explanation was given as to why they didn’t forgo the key card altogether and just release to the eshop only.

Because the explanation is so obvious it doesn’t need to be said - then it’s only available on the eshop lol.

Few laughable things here:

Artists don’t get paid when you’re using Lidarr and sabnzbd lol. Dudes pirating music while trying to say how badly Spotify pays artists lol.

Your complete library is only available offline if you’re streaming locally or have already downloaded all of your music to every device you want to play it offline on. Don’t know what he means by “limited downloads” for Spotify either.

In this setup he is having data collected and tracked by last.fm, (potentially) whichever indexing services he is using for lidarr, (potentially) whichever download service he’s using for sabnzbd, and ListenBrainz (which even makes all user listen data and text public). Oh and his ISP. And cloudflare.

Hosting your own media library is awesome, just don’t try and bullshit people by pretending that you’re better than Spotify because they pay their artists poorly when you’re stealing from the artists yourself.

We’re in a topic about TVs.

Yeah, and they can’t get rid of “sideloading” without literally killing their entire company because gigantic corporations, where they make the majority of their money, are the ones the most beholden to legacy software that would be blocked if they did. Banks, governments, hospitals, schools…….everything would not be able to function.

NOM, as reported by the ABS, was 1500+ a day in 2023. In 2024 it was over 1200 a day. We’ve definitely had an increase this year, especially with stuffing electorates with labor-voting immigrants.

We don’t have NOM figures for this year, but we know that it is tightly aligned with OAD figures - and the 2 OAD figures are at an all time high for one, and the second highest on record for the other……so hmm do you think it’s possible that the NOM will be high?

your position is that immigration is a net drain on society

Woah woah woah - where did you get that from? My position is that increasing demand while keeping supply the same in an already undersupplied market makes the situation worse. I have never said that immigration is a net drain on society lol.

Who is to blame for the current housing crisis is irrelevant in fixing it. Labor are doing nothing to fix it, while allowing it to get worse every single day by increasing demand. Labor are in power - they’re the only ones that can act NOW to try and fix it. That’s their job - or at least it’s supposed to be. No point crying about John Howard ffs lol

It’s almost like people fall for the mainstream media’s propaganda, right? Like, oh I don’t know, increasing demand for housing while not increasing supply having no impact on availability? Or more demand doesn’t drive prices up? Or these marches and everyone at them being neo-nazi racists rather than people who want our government to actually fix these problems?

No, no, I’m sure the mainstream government controlled media that you guys are agreeing with are right. They’re the good guys.

Stopping immigration temporarily means the problem doesn’t keep getting worse and worse every day because we then wouldn’t be bringing in even 500 more people per day who need somewhere to live.

I honestly don’t know how most of the people in here even manage to make it through a day without accidentally killing themselves lol. Everyone seems incapable of understanding simple concepts like supply and demand, or turning off the tap when the bath gets full.

[–] FreedomAdvocate -1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

So bringing in even 1000 more people every day, who need places to live, gas nothing to do with making housing availability worse?

So increasing demand while keeping supply the same, when there is a massive supply shortage, has no effect on availability?

What caused the problem isn’t the issue now. Why can none of you get this simple thing through your head?

If the bath is overflowing you turn off the tap.
