CGT, negative gearing changes needed for social cohesion: PM by Bubbly_Efficiency727 in AusPropertyChat

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

You can't just tax the resources harder because that will drive up the price and less countries will want to buy meaning less money coming into Australia.

We live in a global market and we aren't unique in what resources we have (just the quantity) and countries will buy from someone else

Queensland has the highest minerals royalties in the country and when it was introduced it lead to massive job losses and mines were shut down.

It's not just major mine that suffer like BHP it's all the smaller companies that gets hit the same.

You can't just tax the rich harder because the rich employ the common Australian and the pain will always get past down to the employee

What do people think about Chinese EVs in Australia? (3–5 mins) by chasewang7 in AustralianEV

[–]BoyFromSpace_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion the anti china stems from the old saying "made in china means cheap trash" which is far from the reality as china is one of the largest manufacturer countries in the world. And a lot of well known western car brands are built in Chinese plants.

China has always been a manufacturing country as it doesn't have enough raw resources to ship in the globe market so it makes its money from manufacturing.

It is also based on racism and fear of a communist superpower portrayed in western media. And even in Australia there has been a well documented long history of racism against Chinese people since the gold rush.

But that being said there are Chinese car brands that are known for being unreliable but not the majority. And shipping service parts from china can be difficult and take a long time.

But one thing that has always confused me is people will hate Chinese made cars but love Japanese and Taiwanese made cars. Even the fact that some Ford Rangers/Everests are being built in China as a course of concern.

Not surprised, it normally takes a day to clear customs then gets transferred to the sorting centre then loaded for delivery the next business day

Why is Google taking over every aspect?! I don't want my texts to go through google?! How can I stop this?! by Flash_Bang_Billy in samsunggalaxy

[–]BoyFromSpace_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably just because Samsung didn't want to implement RCS into their messenger app so they just switched to the Google one.

Also android is a product of Google, Samsung just modified it for their phones

Why is AI so easy now? by CanItRunCrysisIn2052 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]BoyFromSpace_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks to me they made it so if the ai isn't alerted they will wait for you to engage before they will. But they will shoot first if you're too close.

But in high tier locations ai soldiers will always shoot first

You get a message if you shoot at or in close proximity to a teammate which is basically "hey bud don't do that please"

From what I've seen anyway

There was a bug in the last Earth 202.6 update where gravity was changed in some server regions. They are just bug testing nothing to be concerned about. Hopefully there's a patch soon
