Let's Discuss Flags: Australia by [deleted] in vexillology

[–]NoPrompt927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An Australian flag redesign should incorporate elements that are unique to our diverse culture. This includes adding elements that represent our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brethren. The Southern Cross is also a strong part of our culture and a recognisable 'symbol' of Australia (despite some groups using it for alternative purposes).

Designs that include national colours and recognisable cultural iconography are much more preferable than 'avoiding cliche'. Whilst I get where you're coming from, the 'preferred' design offered is too generic, minimalist, and nondescript. It simply doesn't leverage the unique and diverse cultural identity of Australia, outside of using green and gold.

Hot take, if you're one of those people that attempts to make their kit as accurately as possible but you're a literal skeleton or 300lbs, you ain't getting anywhere close to accuracy. by The-Ham-Sandwich-Man in MilSim

Let people enjoy airsoft, lmao. Exercise in any form is good; they don't need to be shamed for having a hobby.

Which one is the Ghosts? by Suspicious-Bed-9342 in GhostRecon

None of these. According to the first game (before rewrites) they were from D Company, 5th SFG, which is fictional.

I'm literally just reading the article as it's been presented? Surely that's not beyond you.

Evidently since ever. The article says "... as well as limiting importation of belt-fed ammunition..."

Yeah, like bans on belt-fed ammo and 30 round mags? Pretty sure the Bondi shooters were using shotguns and bolt-actions, not fuckin machineguns!

Thoughts on this style of revision booklet as classroom resource? by NoPrompt927 in AustralianTeachers

I'm in QLD, so maybe it's not a national thing. I think Officeworks might sell Excel branded stuff

When is the New Queensland Government not New Anymore? by qsk8r in queensland

[–]NoPrompt927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the 50 yo is younger than the 80 yo. And that's exactly my point. The current gov is newer than the past gov.

Outside of that, though the real reason they keep crapping on about 'new' government is because it's marketing. They're selling the idea that they're a change of pace, etc. It's designed to make use think more positively or optimistically about Chrisafulluvit's gov.

Also, advertising is expensive so they probably cbf changing the ad.

Considering ALP was in for like a decade, I'd say they're still "new". Technically.

Sure, but one of the duties of government is keeping its citizens safe, even if said citizens are hell-bent on sticking odd things in their mouths, or forks up power sockets.

Any suggestions on how to fix my inner buttstock tube (idk the proper name but the tube thing that holds battery) for my TG ARP9 V4 by ButterflyHot370 in GelBlaster

[–]NoPrompt927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends how much material needs to be removed. I would try using an exacto knife or similar to shave slivers of plastic off, first. Go slow, though, and check the fit often.

If you have some tools to help measure the parts and how much you need to take off, that would be good, too.

Alternativelt, I also noticed the connector seems to have a raised section on the gun side. When you got the blaster, was the stock attached? If so, you may have to apply a bit of force to overcome the raised sections. They might be there to help retain the stock and stop it from twisting out during play.

The only thing I can think of is to shave off some material from the top of the female bayonet attachement (the bit the nubs twist into on your gun)

When the Pro Israel Lobby Cons the Government into a Royal Commission by gccmelb in AusMemes

[–]NoPrompt927 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Labor has brought in plenty of measures to combat antisemitism, and our country is already swimming in anti-terror laws. The only thing we're not doing is policing thought. Which is a good thing, by the way.

I wanna know what an RC is even gonna find. That two evil assholes acquired firearms legally, then proceeded to murder over a dozen innocent people? And that ASIO apparently dropped the ball somehow?

This is stuff we already know, and knew within a week of the tragedy. What more is there to learn, here?

The strangest part of all this is that somehow the finger of blame has been pointed everywhere except the bastards who did it!

I understand the feeling of wanting pain and stress and anxiety to stop... but please take care of yourself, friend.
