You've thoroughly thrashed him, applause.

This isn't much of a thing in this country but it's not impossible. Fear radicalisation and trivial legislation. Not an argument against the voice though.

Untrue. The high court would have something to say about an aboriginal voice being composed of non Aboriginals.

Not entirely true. HC will likely set some sort of minimum standard for composition eventually, probably minimum standards for how they can provide representations if parliament decides to make it hard for them to do so.

It's only meaningless in the sense it doesn't have any legislative power. Committees like this have strong roots in our democracy and have extreme benefit both to policy institutes and parliament itself in developing legislation. Parliamentary practice in this country would be dysfunctional if legislative committees and policy institutes didn't exist, this is just allowing that same power of research and representation that is afforded to committees to a group of people who had their sovereignty and institutions stripped from them with zero recourse.

Even if "powers" implied devolution which is just insane, this would be with the consent of Parliament.

They are valid, in the sense that they follow a degree of logic and make grammatical sense. Otherwise no.

It's well and good if this is your opinion, but note that Aboriginals weren't only here before, but they had their own nations, systems of government and sovereignty that was stripped from them in the 1700s. This isn't just about race, but about their native history with the land and unique connection. If you still believe that Aboriginals don't deserve any sort of representation that recognises this fact, along with all the disadvantage that specifically affects Aboriginals due to government policies since then, then sure.

I'd also like to note that committees and policy institutes already hear from special interest groups, it's not division to hear from those who are uniquely affected by laws.

Very true. Sadly very few want to commit to learning.

I'm shocked

Why not others than hetzner

I've never had a problem with the speed of an electron app be it steam or Spotify.

There's no slippery slope. It's a hosting site and they can host what they want. If you don't like that go mod and upload to your heart's content on another site. You have that personal choice and freedom. They have choice and freedom to tell you to fuck off just like I do. Fuck off.

Crazy. Fuck off you turd.

And very true. 32gb is 99 dollars Australia pesos, 16 is about 70 percent that. What a waste to let it sit around.

No US support for Armenia other than the training exercises and more that are being planned right now.

I'm lucky enough with my position that we have pretty well defined pay bands that mention our levels of knowledge, easily identifiable systems and managers that are basically expected to pay us to those bands when our knowledge increases. The one thing we don't have is enough time to effectively skill people up past a certain point. If you can spare the time, you basically will get promoted. We also have a lovely flex time system - work whenever between 7-6:30 as long as you hit 36 hours a week over 3 months, never heard of any pressure to come in early or anything like that with it either.

You have the freedom to do so. Start your own hosting site or learn to code. Nexus doesn't have to host shit they want to. Stop being a bitch and forcing those to do what you want.

The crazy thing is that in TES, people don't know what a UI element is and we can hide it from the NPCs. Everyone wins. Most games don't directly feature bigotry in their content, certainly not TES, so there's no real reason not to include such ab thing.

Noones forcing anyone. The creator can upload the mod elsewhere. Nexus doesn't subscribe to bigotry and won't platform it.
