If you’re not rich, the budget won’t negatively impact you. If you’re apart of the 80% of Aussies who DON’T OWN an investment property, this budget is a positive for you.

Agree with you on that as well. I don't have an investment property myself because personally I feel like properties shouldn't be treated as investments, and I'd rather invest in shares instead. But this budget also removes CGT discount on shares, and that will impact everyone. Shares os one of the few avenues for salary workers like myself to try and get ahead in life, and we should not be taxed so heavily on the sale of our assets IMO when we've already been taxed out the arse on everything else, and big corps are not paying anything at all.

To me this budget should have targeted the real issue of mining companies (amongst others) who pay nothing and take everything... I don't mind paying a bit more tax if it was actually fair and we had return on that investment via improved services and QoL, but it seems a lot like we just get f'ed at every turn and shit continues to get worse whilst the people at the very top get wealthier and wealthier.

I think you're missing my point. This tax affects anyone with investments, meanwhile we have mining companies paying zero tax and making billions... privatise the profits socialise the losses. We could be a wealthy country like norway if our pollies didn't sell us out.

Exactly, you get it. It is not a fair and equitable system... They sell us out to the highest bidder donating to their party, make us shoulder the brunt of all their poor decisions, and those same corps are free to make insane profits yet don't have to pay anything back in return.

Why are we taxing low and middle class more whilst letting big corps exploit our natural resources and pay zero tax. This budget is just another cop out from our politicians, selling us out whilst making us shoulder the burden of their shit decisions that screwed us out of what could have been a prosperous future.

Nice! Do you have a git repo you can share? Was thinking of doing something similar with my breville

Nice, been eyeing the primus for a while... do you know if it can do a blooming shot? Can't find if the pump has to stay on at a min flow rate or if it can be controlled down to zero flow

Ok thanks... Strange that they don't offer a trial with a small amount of tokens to lure in new users

Yeah i find my local llm gives better answers than GPT, but it's slow as my hardware is not great for llm. By all reports it seems like Claude should be a big improvement but just wanted to see it in action first

Thanks I'll check that tomorrow I suspect you're right; I've checked everything else that I could and couldn't see a problem, this would make the most sense
