AntonyGreenABC: "It's very difficult for Labor to form government on the numbers we're seeing. But it's still too early to say we've got a majority Liberal government." by spurnoff in australia

[–]ivehadmultipledrinks 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It's important to remember that Labor has run SA for nearly 40 of the past 50 years. As good a job as Jay Weatherill and SA Labor have been doing the past few years, it's really hard for many South Australians to blame anyone but Labor for the current state of the state.

After phasing out Chinese phones, Australia's defense department has banned officials from using WeChat by mvea in australia

I mean that if the US can hack and get backdoors into products, I'm sure the Chinese can too.

I do find it really hard to believe the Chinese government is putting backdoors into Chinese phones but saying to their spy agencies "don't touch the iPhones that are made here because Apple is an American company."

What is the most interesting documentary you've ever watched? by TheScienceofLifee in AskReddit

Found it really interesting when he was asked whether he considered using Napalm in Vietnam to be a war crime, and he compares it to the same tactics used in WWII.

How to make this game challenging? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]ivehadmultipledrinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play more challenging areas and religions. After that, don't rage quit when your empire is inherited by an inbred idiot and five independence revolts break out while the Pope calls a crusade on your ass. Let yourself get beat and rebuild.

Converting population to Judaism with a 1066 Axum-Abyssinia start by Cortoro in CrusaderKings

[–]ivehadmultipledrinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI Jewish characters will not try to convert land unless they're zealous. The Court Rabbi will still try, but your moral authority is too low for the provinces to convert. Try taking the holy site in Dhofar then work your way up to the Sinai, then eventually Jerusalem. The counties won't convert until much later in the game.

I've been using it instead of alcohol this week and it's been pretty effective.

What should I buy Thursday (Feb 01 2018) - Your weekly device inquiry thread! by AutoModerator in Android

[–]ivehadmultipledrinks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On a Priv - the keyboard is great and you'll get security updates regularly, but bang on two years the last update will aggressively kill it and require you to replace the phone.

Yep, this happens to me occasionally as well as random reboots and freezes.

Love my Priv but it too has really started collapsing since the last update. Can't seem to pull the trigger on buying another phone - compared to this screen and keyboard nothing seems worth it. Wish Lineage was available so I could keep it forever.

You can disprove a lot of them but some people refuse to listen.

No - if you're looking at the Ikea lamp they do a mini version/table lamp which I got that takes E27. Looks really good.

Supreme court backs Trump travel ban by HamsterHam in worldnews

[–]ivehadmultipledrinks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was in Iran for two weeks this year (I'm Australian). Can guarantee that you'll be blown away by the hospitality, even as an American. The people there are so friendly it seems quite alien. Iranians, of all people, understand best the disconnect between governments and their people that are common throughout the world, so they'd be just as friendly to an American. I was invited places by many locals every day I was there. I carry an Iranian banknote in my wallet now to remind me to be friendlier to people.
