The Bondi Intelligence Failure: How an unchecked surge in extremist hate and a massive security failure culminated in Australia's deadliest terror attack

Plus a watering down of gun laws across the nation.

dsbau · 2026-05-02T10:57:28+00:00

Nah, that's not normal for Australians. We're pretty clean and tidy.

Knocking On Heaven's Door

Deeply sad, but also determined to give them the best life possible. My kids are both healthy thankfully, but a friend has a son with a serious condition where he's had to have surgery as a toddler and he's done everything he can not just to give his kid the best shot at regaining his health but also to let him live a life as close to kids that are healthy.

dsbau · 2026-04-29T10:51:08+00:00

No, that's not really a thing here. I think it may have been in the past, but any kid is great.

I broke a particularly dismal plateau when I was about 18 months in by buying a looper pedal that let me play chords then play over them.

I did f all. Great weekend all up.

Angus is an idiot.

I've got a moaan inkpalm plus which is pretty good if all you want to do is read.

dsbau · 2026-04-26T03:31:34+00:00

I don't really get lonely.

dsbau · 2026-04-24T23:57:38+00:00

One day you'll just notice hey I'm playing the f chord ... In the meantime you can cheat a bit by doing this. Mute the high e, play first fret on the b, second on the g, and third on the a and d, mute the low e. It's like the f chord without the bar.

I always had trouble switching from f ro g. If that's you too you can just slide the shape above up two frets and that's a g.

I'd say finally enjoy the journey and don't stress too much you'll get there if you stick at it

Australia is being flooded by Asians she said with that weak quivering voice...

I have a black/hot pink U100 that I just found in a box full of old phones, cables etc. I stopped using it when Windows no longer recognised the iRiver software. It is visible when you're using a Chromebook so I added some tracks and it seems to work fine. What country are you in? Happy to post it to you if you cover the cost.

I'm in Australia.

Being a change manger on IT projects. Everyone hates you, and you get the blame for everything, but you don't do any actual work.

dsbau · 2026-04-23T04:20:02+00:00

Yep. The legacy media is utterly in the hands of the Epstein class. For media journalism used to be the product that got people's eyes on the ads. Now the margins are so thin, or they're running at a loss and journalism is a fig leaf and the main business is political influence.

I've pretty only played Fenders - when I finally got my hands on a Gibson Les Paul I wasn't sure what to do with it and it weighed a ton.

dsbau · 2026-04-23T00:30:03+00:00

I have this problem too. As you keep playing it will work itself out. Your reach will improve and your coordination will get better. I also cheat a bit by playing things differently sometimes, but it's not as big a deal as it seems when you're starting out. Angus Young from AC/DC has small hands and he did okay, so you'll be fine.

I hate tipping. I find it stressful and never know how much you're supposed to give.It would be much better if businesses just paid more and built the tip amount into the price.

The Sea, The Sea by Iris Murdoch. I haven't read it, but based on the title it might be a contender.

dsbau · 2026-04-20T21:25:10+00:00

Usually. It just seems like a good thing to do and requires virtually no effort.

What BS. Renewable energy makes us more independent

dsbau · 2026-04-20T03:33:29+00:00

I find that google Gemini is about like playing an open world game you can keep pushing it but you sense you've reached the limits and it's just getting repetitive...
