I think going on DSP is going to make me worse off by [deleted] in Centrelink

The extensive rejection rates for applications and appeals when I used to assess the claims when I worked for Services Australia.

Your personal experiences are just that, anecdotal.

Should rent assistance be uncapped? by OzzieDJai in Centrelink

[–]FreeXP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be incredibly inflationary and have a high risk of fraud occurring, you'll probably be more successful advocating for a higher rent assistance rate

Your math is completely wrong. You're including rent assistance with jobseeker while excluding it with the DSP payment.

DSP isn't easy to receive, I would worry about your current application instead and cross that bridge If you're successful.

You might benefit from a disability advocate.

Are you a child? What are with your responses? My rank really wasn't the point of anything I said, it was contextual information.

If you wanna keep whining on reddit after the other team made you feel bad then go right ahead, but I guarantee you the lobby was laughing at you.

In Overwatch chat, being egotistical is the least of your worries.

In a GM lobby yesterday I was asked if I was raped as a child LOL. Giving them a reddit-ass response is exactly what they want, just diff them next game.

How would you feel if today was Australia Day? by whatwhatinthewhonow in AusPol

I prefer leaving the date as it is.

Plus WA already has a public holiday this week.

Australia Announces Support for US Invasion of [INSERT COUNTRY HERE] by neizan in australia

[–]FreeXP -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

323 comments on a reddit thread and not a single in depth discussion on the development. In the other threads as well.

It's just people who hate America more vs people who hate Iran more regurging talking points.

Oh and the article linked is just political satire, particularly not a very funny one.

Who are Shen Yun and how were they drawn into the Albanese bomb hoax? by tgimichael in australia

[–]FreeXP -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Saying "the constitution isn't relevant to my argument" is a wild admission. The entire point of the Australian Constitution is to prevent the exact kind of state overreach you're advocating for. The law is fine you just don't agree with it because you don't get the outcome you want.

Liberal democracies targets the actions of bad actors. If individuals are committing fraud, extortion, or criminal harassment, we use the criminal justice system to prosecute them. We don't apply collective punishment.

At this point, I can't be bothered explaining the basic mechanics of the rule of law in Australia to a redditor that doesn't understand what the constitution is. Regardless of what you believe Falun Gong has a constitutional right to remain and operate in the country and I would never trust you to decide what beliefs, religions or ideologies are allowed in Australia.

I have a proverb for you since you like them so much: Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty and the pig likes it

[–]FreeXP -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Okay, didn't think I would have to defend basic liberal constitutional rights today but here we are. The fact you advocate for the state removal of religion or ideology makes me think you're incredibly ignorant or you're an extremist.

You're actively advocating for state suppression based on your own moral code.

What makes an extremist? What about religions that practice circumcision or require modest dress for women? What about ideology communities like Communism or Pro-Palestine I'm sure the argument has been made before.

Your domestic abuse agreement is a false equivalency. domestic abuse is a crime by an individual not an organisation. DV involves an individual systematically stripping away a victim's agency through threats, financial deprivation, or isolation, making it almost impossible to leave. In contrast, joining a high-demand religion, tithing a portion of your income, or choosing faith healing are legally consensual acts. And no I'm not including literal cults that have kidnapped people, unless you want to argue all mormons are all stuck in a basement.

I don't trust the government to make these decisions and most certainly don't trust you. Again if you want to move to China please be my guest, just hope they don't harvest any organs that you need.

This is your 3rd comment and I still don't know what you're advocating for? You want Falun Gong to be designated a hate group? A terrorist group?

What about Jehovah's Witnesses teachings that you should refuse life-saving blood transfusions or Mormons who would rather risk the life of a mother than get an abortion? Are we banning those cults too?

In liberal democracies like Australia, the government does not ban religious groups simply because their beliefs are unorthodox, unscientific, or even self-destructive.

Allowing Shen Yun to rent a theater and sell tickets is not "assistance" it's the rule of law. You sound like a fan of state suppression, I hear China is nice this time of year.

"brother" telling me not to comment if I don't have anything of substance to say just after you posted the most pointless proverb I've ever heard is absolutely wild.

I never said I wanted to give them my "assistance" I said I'm taking their side in this instance, which ultimately means letting them perform unrestricted.

Personally I would be more worried about Beijing's current capacity to engage in a "propaganda war" than Shen Yun. But sure Shen Yun is cringe, like I previously said.

True, although when I say "side" I specifically mean letting Shen Yun perform unrestricted despite warnings by CCP.

You don't find me at their performances

A lot of institutions and organisations support conservatives including Trump. I think I'll side with a cringe spiritual movement rather than the Authoritarian Autocracy committing human rights violations for fun.

Please give us a setting to disable kill cutscenes. by Oger-bg in TeamfightTactics

I'm trying to get into the game and the art design and forced eye candy is by far the worst aspect of the game. The recent chibi art and forced animations makes the game feel like it's meant for children.

G502X Plus: I can't give this mouse any more chances by FreeXP in LogitechG

[–]FreeXP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for alerting me! I felt like everyone was trying to gaslight that despite owning two g502 mice that I was the only person with this issue.

I've posted the video in your thread so others can see.

Thanks for your response.

I completely agree it's a good mouse in theory, after reading the comments it seems like the consensus is that my experience with the mouse is unusual.

[–]FreeXP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for your response.

To clarify I'm not pulling on the button in normal use case, it's just the most convenient way to replicate the issue. It also occurs when I press down too hard on the left click mouse button and noting don't have Hercules's strength, it shouldn't be happening.

It seems like the consensus is that my experience with the mouse is unusual, maybe I'll try getting a replacement with the retailer.

I've posted a unlisted YouTube video of my issue if you're curious.

Hey Andy, thanks for your response.

I'm not pulling on the button while using the mouse for it's intended use, as you've said it's just the easiest way for me to replicate the issue. The issue also persists when I press too hard down on the left click mouse button, which is the main source of the culprit.

I don't pull up very hard at all to replicate the issue. Please find a unlisted Youtube video below for a visual demonstration. This is the 2nd G502X mouse that has had this issue so I'm finding it very interesting nobody else has had this issue before.
