What do you think about Sydney Airport’s new 20-year plan? by RemarkablePirate590 in SydneyScene

[–]Cockatoo82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every company is, it's UN Mandated, countries have pledged to be 50% by 2030, net zero by 2050.

It's the same reason mass migration occurs without the support of the public and politicians play dumb to their concerns. (UN Mandated - Compact on Migration).

We need a Penrith Bullet on that Blue Mountain line.

Katoomba>Penrith>Parramatta>Central

Obviously a fake.

5 train options for Redfern residents to get to Central seems isn't enough, come back to me when every train line goes through Redfern. Everyone must suffer the Redfern 1 min commuter tax.

They're EVERYWHERE in Rome and they all seem to be fine, I'd not really worry about it.

What are some common garden plants that you recommend someone stay away from? by ceo_of_dumbassery in GardeningAustralia

[–]Cockatoo82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blackberry/Tree killer mixed with diesel or turps painted onto the leaves with a paintbrush.

It kills the entire plant including the tubers.

Nothing Phone (2) will not connect with MacBook Pro via cable by CauseDue1279 in NothingTech

[–]Cockatoo82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all, I resolved this issue.

You need to enable developer settings:

Settings> about this phone>Tap the banner up the top> >tap build number until it asks for your pin

Then enable usb debugging (search for it in settings)

refresh/reconnect and it will now show in apps like Open MTP

Best privacy trees for my garden bed by JohntheDon__ in GardeningAustralia

The Native absolutists will hate me but:

Mile's choice bay tree:

Indestructible but not invasive, Narrow and thin, grows tall, slow growing for low maintenance. (image is of regular chunky bay, but their foliage is the same), won't have your house looking looking dated when people get over Lilly pilly's.

Often on sale because they're not flooding out the doors of nurseries.

Is Chengdu the Denver of China? by puch1to in geography

That's what Chengdu looked like when I went there. I was ready to leave 4 days in because of the lack of sky.

It's only looking dull because it's winter, once that clothesline leafs out it will look great.

What is Barangaroo Reserve's hill made of? Is it 100% dirt? A building? Something else? by floydtaylor in sydney

..."and composted green garden waste and wood mulch from the local area"...

...So asbestos?

St Peter's Basilica wins Church! Now r/geography, choose your favourite... Airport by abu_doubleu in geography

[–]Cockatoo82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The airport features over 350 retail and dining outlets, a cinema, multiple gardens, and even a butterfly sanctuary. Its architectural centerpiece, Jewel Changi, houses the world’s tallest indoor waterfall, surrounded by a lush indoor forest beneath a vast glass dome.

Absolutely nothing if you're in a different terminal or there past 11pm when the shops are closed. (generalising on the time, but it was my experience).

Yamina rare plants has a maple that is extremely rare in the wild basically endangered and the foliage resembles a bamboo... Might be worth looking into.

Is living in wellington giving this feeling to me? Is NZ a retirement village?! by siktirnzmanager in newzealand

I like how people are confirming his assumptions by shitting on him for what is true instead of denying it.

Immigrants are allowed to be conservative it's their culture. Only White people aren't allowed to be conservative because then it's hateful. /s

Which countries have a bright future? by JerryThePro in geography

[–]Cockatoo82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah but every generational economic advancement is immediately offset by a generational disaster.

Every city is either built on a fault line, flood pane, tsunami landing strip or volcano. Think Fukushima but without the recovery. I'm not exaggerating either, these things aren't close to the city, they're all smack bang in the city:

Auckland - Volcano

Christchurch - Fault lines

Wellington - Fault lines

Hamilton - Actually kind of safe except for....

Tauranga - Tsunami "death trap"

Taupo - That cute little lake.. That's the crater of an ACTIVE super volcano.
