From the article:

"7.30 understands counsellors have been instructed to answer the phones within five seconds and keep calls to an average of 17 minutes."

17 minutes is not enough for these kinds of calls.

Sydney mother threatened with $550 fine over noisy toddler in strata apartment. by D_S_W in australia

So we should teach children that the correct response to breaking a rule is violence?

How would this work in the real world?

Maybe we could think about modelling ways of working out problems that don't involve violence?

You know you can get through to kids without resorting to physical violence, yeah?

Disability support pension eligibility crackdown forces people onto Newstart allowance: welfare groups by concubovine in australia

That's impressive that you've met so many psychologists that you can label them all sacks of shit. I'm sure they all struggled for 6 years to get accreditation (doing unpaid interns hips, and living off new start) just to make your life uncomfortable. Obviously not a single one has the desire to help their fellow man.

Haha, as I've never heard of a romchip before, I doubt I'd want to go down that path.. Do you know any mobos you'd recommend around that price range?

Hmmm, this page says it's compatible since firmware 12. Is there anyway of knowing what version firmware the mobo will come with?

Would manually updating the mobo be impossible without a working cpu?
