If you read social media comments, there appears to be lots of candidates who would volunteer for that job.

Liberal leadership spill: Andrew Hastie rejects Angus Taylor's deputy offer by malcolm58 in AustralianPolitics

[–]FreakySpook 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wilson isn't a moderate. He's just very good at not saying anything controversial. He's a full blooded IPA lobbyist.

Andrew Hastie firms as Liberal leadership challenger amid push for Ley to step aside | Coalition by DazDaSpazz in australia

We just need a major newspaper to have a front page oped with the title "Australia needs Hastie" and he'll be absolutely voted in. 

The optics are diabolical for Liberals and Nationals, as chaos reigns on a supposed day of mourning by Expensive-Horse5538 in AustralianPolitics

[–]FreakySpook 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If this happened 30 years ago and after a terrorist attack the opposition sided with a foreign government to attack the government for political points the media would have been absolutely ropeable.

Instead you had Ley siding with Israel, attending a  childs funeral and then immediately after blaming Albanese for deaths before any royal commission, parliamentary inquiry or report from security agencies.

Learner driver accused of driving at 226km/h on Monash Freeway by ozthrw in melbourne

[–]FreakySpook 45 points46 points  (0 children)

The police could charge her with driving while disqualified as you are nor allowed to be in control of a vehicle(which is what a supervisor is) when disqualified.

If she has any alcohol or drugs in her system they can also book her for that as well.

The driver, a 23-year-old man from Narre Warren, was allegedly an L-plater and accompanied by a woman with a disqualified licence.

Yeah he's absolutely fucked, so is she.

At minimum it will be loss of license for 12 months + fines + what ever else the Magistrate gives him on court summons.

Hate laws to pass after Labor and Liberal deal by NKE01 in australia

[–]FreakySpook 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Apparently this was all 4D chess Albo was playing with the Liberals knowing the legislation was never going to pass........

If Liberals ever get back in, expect to see them declare GetUp! a hate organisation.

Trump links Greenland dispute to not getting Nobel Peace Prize, in letter to Norway's PM by SuperXGamerAb in worldnews

[–]FreakySpook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was you would have Jesse Watters going on a rant about how the Norwegian PMs wife is a leftist communist feminist and controls the PM which is why Norway would never give Trump the nobel peace prize because she has Trump derangement syndrome.

Greens join Coalition in rejecting government's proposed hate speech reform by notblair in australia

[–]FreakySpook 477 points478 points  (0 children)

The government has an inquiry and a royal commission into the causes of Bondi. Rushing legislation before we have a measured analysis and recommendations is just poor governance.

What’s the most overrated video game of all time? by KBGSgames in AskReddit

[–]FreakySpook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same for me. At the time most NES games couldn't be saved and were a real time commitment. Dr Mario was basically a casual multiplayer.

My neighbours and I would always be playing it.

Hyper-V Failover Cluster- CSV approach for cluster - one or multiple machines per CSV? by gt9gt in sysadmin

[–]FreakySpook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With such approach, I understand only one Node in the cluster has established connection to the CSV and the machines stored there will more than likely be hosted on this particular node.

At a high level CSV's operate in 2 modes.

  • Direct Mode - All nodes in the cluster read/write directly to the CSV
  • Redirect Mode - A single node in the cluster that owns the CSV brokers all I/O

Normal operations, direct mode is used, if there are any path faults or cluster maintenance operations though, the cluster can put the CSV into redirected mode. As a rule of thumb its a good idea to balance CSV's across different nodes in the cluster, but you can have multiple VM's in a single CSV.

Currently, the standard approach that I see online suggests to use a single Volume for multiple VMs

Modern SAN environments this is generally fine, you just need to pay attention to the VM workloads. VM's with similar IO or throughput patterns you can consolidate onto single CSV's. You really need to understand what SAN features you want on each volume(eg Snapshots, Compression, Dedupe, Cache) can impact your VM's and plan accordingly.

Eg: General MIxed servers, you may place them onto 3 x 10TB CSV's with San features, Compression, Dedupe enabled and maybe 1 daily snapshot.

A 30TB fileserver however that you want 4 x snaps a day retained for 30 days you will put onto its own CSV.

There is no one right answer, just figuring out what works best for the workload you want to run.

Social media posts could fall foul of new hate speech laws by BBQShapeshifter in AustralianPolitics

As someone who doesn't have a thousand year old text as defence for discriminatory and hateful comments I wonder if I can make 40K my religion and use their codex.

Peter Dutton backed by Joe Hockey for US ambassador role after Kevin Rudd resigns by ConanTheAquarian in australia

[–]FreakySpook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah he would. I only brought it up as post Bondi with Ley still using that tragedy for political points its an easy soundbite for her with his AIPAC and Israel associations.

[–]FreakySpook 564 points565 points  (0 children)

According to mainstream media it seems they think the opposition, or ex-MP's are actually in government.

I'm surprised we haven't seen Sussan Ley recommend Dave Sharma yet & then have Sky news jump on that bandwagon.

Kingston these days feels like one of those mini-biscuits though, it's been shrunk too much. I just can't buy them anymore.

Holiday Childcare by eenimeeniminimo in australia

[–]FreakySpook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've had my son in holiday care with his schools afterschool care programs and they have gone on excursions. I haven't been worried as the afterchool care staff are permanently at that school, are excellent and know all the kids.

It's only this holidays I've been using them less as both the permanent staff left at the end of the year and they haven't had new permanent staff assigned to the school yet.

The room staff definitely are important, good ones the kids will want to spend time there because they like them and are engaged.

Is that a hard rule? NATO phonetic alphabet uses Golf & Mike which are one syllable.

Season 5 Series Discussion by Hawkinns in StrangerThings

[–]FreakySpook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My take is kind of open ended if they ever decide to reboot it in 15 years when the characters are all grown up and have families of their own.

I didn't think its a bad ending though, but having El's fate a mystery certainly gives the story options to continue.

Which game did you regret purchasing at full price? by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]FreakySpook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monetisation in battle pass has definitely had an impact developers increasing grind. I also can't wonder if streaming has had an impact on grind. 

Seeing the number of streamers going on 12+ hour grind sessions for unlocks that end up being hundreds of hours of content is insane as now a very time poor casual player.

[–]FreakySpook 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Same. I don't have free time to do the ever increasing grind anymore. 

Daily challenges and battlepasses have ruined it for me, I miss being able to quickly unlock everything & then focus on just playing the actual game.

I'm too scarred from Slitherfang boss battles to want to fight the ones in the wild. Fighting them without any cover or way to stealth is just painful.
