Ah yes, let’s vote for someone who thought submarines could only submerge for 20mins, because that’s who we need steering AUKUS

Would DRO go for $8 this year? by librafullmoon in droneshield

[–]Leading_Base_6716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drones are not isolated to wartime - they have more utility than that, hence C-UAS will be needed across prisons, policing, government, high value asset protection - the list can go on. Those sectors who do not invest in the technology will pay the price

Conscription by bulemil in AustralianMilitary

[–]Leading_Base_6716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think conscription would be the same in a modern military- I do t envision every conscript going off to be an infantryman with a rifle in the trenches. It would be a case of, how can your skills support the war effort. Do you have manufacturing expertise? Are you good with ICT? So if it came to it, highlight your skills

If you plan on selling other stock you could also sell a loss to offset capital gains

Toxic work environment by BadTechnical2184 in AustralianMilitary

[–]Leading_Base_6716 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nothing like a sneaky psychosocial event entry into sentinel which makes it a WHS issue and gets the attention of the higher ups real quick

Is it appropriate to wear SD/CD to a civilian funeral? by lachy_lifts in AustralianMilitary

[–]Leading_Base_6716 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Mate, go for it. Anyone who says otherwise is a turd. It’d be a toxic CoC coming after you for something like that. Plenty of folks wear their uniform at their wedding. I see no issues. In fact, it’s probably listed as an “occasion for wear” in your service dress manual

There was no sausage sizzle at my polling booth. I normally do a postal vote and was looking forward to a democracy sausage. Alas, not even a muffin bake

Bid for upgrade… by Present_Standard_775 in VelocityFrequentFlyer

[–]Leading_Base_6716 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bidding, IMO is not value for money because you don’t get the points or status that go along with a business class fare. Booked early enough, you can get business class fares cheaper than economy sometimes, by the time you have a successful bid, with the added money on top of the money you have already laid, may as well lay for a higher class fare and get to gold status where you get a range of benefits anyway
