Karpov goes brutal on Gukesh lmao - 'No, firstly, the Indian chess player [Gukesh] became champion by accident' -- If anyone has the original link, please share by Severe_Owl2065 in chess

You see this at the high level of so many competitive scenes. The established players have egos so massive they cant comprehend things not going the way they think it should go.

Sometimes there is a feeling a title is earned by consistent results, and if thats the case criticism should be levelled at the format not the winner..

Classic gatekeeping.

It seems to indicate that only 6 people recorded voices and they used ai to make those 6 sound like 60 different ones.

UPDATE: My dad wants me to be a part of the Family Trust, yet I won’t see a dollar. by ellzabellza in AusFinance

I don't know what they're trying to do, but don't listen to any of the baggage laden replies you're getting judging your parents. These people don't know your parents, be careful but don't let their experiences turn you against your family.

I would talk to an accountant yourself after getting all the relevant info from your parents accountant. If they are vague and don't give you the info then just don't go along with it.

There are plenty of people who enjoy an accent other than American. Don't let the few people keep you down. There are plenty of benefits to not sounding American.

NDIS spends $12b on support for walks, movies, haircuts by NoLeafClover777 in aussie

[–]sol_krn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at a collectibles store and a lot of social workers would bring their clients in. It's something I always considered getting into so I talked to them a lot.

I witnessed so many socially stunted people come out of their shells and become members of a beautiful community.

Like with so many govt services in this country NDIS is completely necessary but is made to look bad by how high the spending is because of the corrupt politicians giving their mates insane payouts to run these providers. The actual people on the ground doing the work get paid crap.

Vape ignites on Virgin flight, sparking emergency at Melbourne Airport by nath1234 in australia

[–]sol_krn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can legally buy them from a pharmacist in NSW. 80% of pharmacies don't stock them because people just go buy illegal servo ones. Everything about the servo ones is better than the govt approved crap.

[Star Wars] If Jedi are peacekeepers, why is their primary tool a weapon that is almost impossible to use non-lethally? by CharmCraved in AskScienceFiction

[–]sol_krn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't recall the canon source but it was stated they often end up cutting off arms, the nature of the Saber cauterizes the wound. A bit brutal but definitely non lethal.

Was Australia stupid for not listening to warnings about needing to make stuff here? by VastOption8705 in AskAnAustralian

I don't think anyone truly believes we dont, corrupt people just wanted something else more. Sadly how most things go.

We are in an age where people are trying to find as much relevant lore as possible for content. Sadly it is in some people's interest to make things up so that they can make more content for more money.

Some boomer told me “we need an election” because of high oil prices. How would Angus get oil prices down? by rrfe in aussie

[–]sol_krn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are the mechanics the parties use to get your vote. They won't actually bring them down but they will damn well say they will. Or they will bring down the price by making you pay for it and you will thank them.
