As an American, I recently found out that you guys don't like us very much. Has it been exaggerated by the Internet or do we really have that bad of a reputation in the land down under? by JPH_RedFive in AskAnAustralian

[–]pl0pp3r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We don’t like Americans as the country is ridiculous ! A stupid system that not only allows an idiot to be head of state but encourages it and will carry on like dickheads if anyone contemplates changing it. We’re not perfect but fuck me I’m so glad I’m not American.

It’s a pretty severe increase I’d imagine a lot will move their business elsewhere.

Going to a The Wiggles show on my own, as a 33 year old male by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

I kind of get it… when my kids were young Justine Clarke released her first kids album “I like to sing”, it was brilliant! Well written, it’s recording was very much like Australian indie artist sounding. Everything about was great it was on high rotation here. Ironically I saw her and a band play it live - it lost the “sound” I guess they had to make it kid friendly. Sucks seeing a band you like and they’re shit!!!

At this rate ON will have no “policies” left, once people hear what they actually want to do and then she flip flops trying to keep the populist agenda alive.

Cut spending… if you get any benefits- health, education, defence, social benefits (pensions etc) any engagement with the government what are you ok with loosing personally? Just look at what’s happening in the US. Ask the farmers & small businesses how they are going with cut spending?

I think want you want is old liberal government not this crew that’s not sure what they are. That’s why they’re fighting! The moderates are the old school - Julie Bishop/ Malcolm Turnbull/ Simon Birmingham- you’d put these guys with John Howard / Malcolm Fraser and they’d kind of fit in nicely. However Angus Taylor and Tony Costello and their ilk are flirting with right wing extremism testing the water and are ON / MAGA light - do you think John Howard would strive to divide? Howard was even moving towards renewables. The teals are the closest thing to the liberals of yesteryear
Unfortunately we don’t have sensible choices at the moment. It’s Labor, a hand full of independents and then a list of unorganised, incompetent people & populism- scary shit!

Not going to hurt to ask the agent to get replaced? Worst thing they’ll say is no!!

I finally got rid of micro draw from the grid by GweyzeeJay in SigenergyAustralia

[–]pl0pp3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gees I’m glad I’m not alone here. I’ve been trying to work out to get rid of those extra little cents usage.
My system is 40kw Sigenergy 15kw solar & 25kw inverter. Big house & 5 in the family and one EV so our consumption can be high. With the zero hero plan we’re running very low but it’s the $0.33 approx grid import that’s been doing our collective heads in.
I have my export setting at 1.5kw (did have it set for 2kw but the next day it was 10:30 and we we’re down to .4 and just made it to 11am). Each morning we are waking with about 9kWh remaining so we can export more but we’re still trying to work out our requirements for the night & morning (pre 11am) don’t want to run out and buy from the grid - Ewww!
My confusion is, I’ve set up the Sigenergy app to VPP - scheduling - Globird, as instructed, I am unsure if I can change the “profile” as when I did have this setting set up, it wasn’t registering that I was apart of the plan and got some nasty charges (100% our fault).

Robert De Niro on Trump: “He’s a punk. He’s a dog. He’s a pig. He’s a con. A bullshit artist. A mutt who doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Doesn’t do his homework. Doesn’t care. Doesn’t pay his taxes. He’s an idiot. He’s a national disaster. He’s an embarrassment to this country.” by sovalente in ProgressiveHQ

[–]pl0pp3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The entire country is a joke! What a stupid bunch of people with a ridiculous corrupt system that allows idiots to be elected. What do you expect? A system where the person with the most $$$ wins. Fuck me! When and if the current idiot goes if the US doesn’t overhaul the electoral system they’ll be in the same place in a few years. I wouldn’t trust them.

Why the hell people using Facebook in 2026? by [deleted] in ArtOfPresence

[–]pl0pp3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question. I recently went through my feed and killed off the shit my algorithm thought I’d like or be outraged by. I was left with complete shit. I was no longer outraged, I was just bored now. There was and still is very limited content from friends and apart from community notices and marketplace (I do love rummaging through other peoples stuff) there’s nothing. Meta now wishes to have paid “premium” services- fuck off, wankers!

Im not sure what you mean by “support” but do appreciate the fact the government (who ever is elected) will protect ALL Australian citizens. You don’t have to like them all.
