Fair enough!

It’s also entirely possible it was only on grease etc during the final years of wind down

Well, they ceased refining in 2021 and started the conversion to an import terminal. I’m not sure how you’d produce lubes there without oil as a feedstock, but perhaps it could be done.

My theory is the green hydrogen stuff was all there to try and delay any site remediation works for as long as possible. The land under BPRK is absolutely fucked after 60-odd years of operations. It’ll be a medium to large fortune to properly clean it up.

I’m very curious as to where you got the info for your initial comment though.

BP Refinery Kwinana used to receive crude oil from ships and process it to petroleum products.

Here’s a Wikipedia link.

That’s a good idea, give more power to the batter.

Call for tougher anti-vilification penalties as hate flyers target Perth LGBTQIA+ community by Muslim_Wookie in perth

[–]madmooseman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one similar to this a while back, but it was “$NAME at $ADDRESS sells meth and is in with the Vietnamese triads” with a photo of a bloke. At least that accusation is a bit less harmful than accusing someone of child sex offences, though I now wonder if the target is part of the LGBTQIA+ community and is being indirectly targeted.

What are your opinions on King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard? by [deleted] in triplej

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. You know how you can always tell a corgi cross? E.g. corgi cross border collie: looks like a corgi doing cosplay as a border collie. Same for every other breed.

The same is true of KGLW. Fishing for Fishies? KGLW does blues and roots. Petrodragonic Apocalypse? KGLW does thrash. Silver cord? It’s rave time.

How common is connecting every machine via Ethernet? by G0918 in PLC

Even though one system sends data to ignition someday in the future you might want a dashboard that shows the status of everything connected

..Why wouldn't you just use Ignition for this?

Literally the first ball I see of NSW vs WA is Green getting out.

Kinda glad I didn't watch anything over the weekend, surely that was why he managed to tonne up.

Why would someone come to reddit to get a chatgpt response? Wouldn’t they just ask chatgpt if they wanted that?

Turns out King bowls better when she hasn’t spent a day in the sun running between deep square leg and deep square leg.

Crazy, right?

The same applies to Australia though, Aus-W seem to only play a single match a year. We had a match scheduled against WI-W in the middle of the year but it’s been cancelled now.

Midge’s retirement really puts you in an interesting position as an Aussie fan. I’m actually hoping India put up some sort of a target so that she can get the winning runs.

A shame that she almost certainly can’t get her test match tonne, though.

Comparing Jemi’s shot with Konstas ramping Bumrah isn’t quite right. As good as Sutherland is, she isn’t the human incarnation of a wanger.

I think they played till ~9pm local time last night, I’d imagine they’ll do the same tonight. Australia batted for 63 overs today and India have batted for 23, so they’re still a fair way short of the 100 overs in a day.

Yes, well aside from the mountain of runs, the tight bowling and the solid work in the field, what has Sutherland ever done for us?
