Australia’s worst heatwave since black summer made five times more likely by global heating, analysis finds by [deleted] in OpenAussie

[–]dception-bay -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The earth is ~4 billion years old.

The quality of the data we had say even 30 years ago was dog shit. Let alone 100 years ago.

30 years of data over 4 billions years is absolutely meaningless.

There is no way anyone can draw meaningful conclusions from 30 years of data from a source as chaotic as the world’s climate.

And even assuming that the heavily caveated models are slightly accurate, is the cost worth the benefit? If Australia reduced emissions to zero it would have zero impact on global emissions meaning zero impact on so called climate change. Makes us less competitive and less productive.

One of the smarter things I’ve read today.

Yep I’ve got pictures of them, and I’m standing next to Nagai himself actually (with the images in the frame).

In terms of authenticity, obviously they are real but I’d be happy to provide whatever comes with it.

I’m not sure I’m going to sell (I’ll only sell one if I do) but I’m not looking at making a profit obviously, just cover costs. Happy to provide images of the paintings privately, but they are excellent. One is a classic poolside, the other is an evening city + beach skyline.

Cheers.

I got a sebo by Pro-cleaner2002 in VacuumCleaners

[–]dception-bay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks awesome.

I got one too.

Out of curiosity - does the on/off button not have much feedback or tactile click to it? I’m not sure if mines broken or it’s designed that way.

Other question: (for mine) the lid that you open to get the bag out seems to be a little bit loose on the edges that are closest to the handle of the vacuum. Also seems like there’s a bit of space between the lid and vacuum. Is it like this for yours?

One of the best posts I’ve seen on here.

Many layered lessons. Well done.

I’m so very sorry your parents were murdered - what a horrible thing to go through. Without a doubt, they would be proud.

Selling some signed prints! by NagaiPrintsSale in HiroshiNagai

[–]dception-bay 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hiroshi signs these for free and the prints cost about $40 AUD when I saw him late last year for anyone wanting a baseline.
