like you i live in a blue ribbon liberal seat so my vote will have no bearing on who is pm but i have decided to pick through the independents and vote for one who seems decent

if enough of us do that it will put a few voices of sanity into parliament who might vote against some of the stupider proposals put forward

Unfortunately some of the individuals associated with independents and smaller parties don't qualify as "voices of sanity" and can potentially end up with a lot more power and responsibility than they truly deserve (particularly if favourable preferences got them over the line).

Prof Ross Fitzgerald from the Sex Party is worthy of a vote. Ignore the Sex Party thing (the title has little to do with their policies), his views are very much what most of us think.

Listen to him interviewed by Alan Jones.

BTW as an adjunct to the NBN discussion, my suburb is not even on the NBN radar. I think that we're not due to be hooked up until at least 2018.

Meanwhile telstra have been ferreting about in my street in the last few months and installed huge underground ribbon cables. A few weeks ago I get an email from telstra telling me that as a broadband cable customer, they are sending me a new "Gateway Max" modem/router for self installation, which I plugged in.

Yesterday I did a wifi speed test and pulled 75mb/s :shock: at 6:30pm. Pretty sure that the NBN only promises 100mb/s.

#zoomzoom

Which brings me to Shorten's fibre argument vs Turnbull's emerging_technologies_will_in_time_match_fibre_expectations argument. I am not sure if my download rates are high because of my proximity to the node (or whatever the correct terminology is) but it seems that I am getting NBN speeds whilst not having a pure fibre connection or even an NBN backbone.

How dumb are these merkins? My area is both being done and not done. They are doing patches all over the suburb and our street is not on the plan. 1 street behind me just got it and we did not.

Like everything that is organised by the government it is a complete mess and failure!

:lol:

I'm sure with the speeds people get they won't mind me using their connection.......

Just get yourself some King Gee shorts and shirt, pay someone to embroider 'NBN Ltd' on the pocket, and rock up and say 'As part of the installation we just need access to your modem, and your sub-floor. Don't worry, this blue cable running through your back yard is perfectly normal.'.

Seems like a lot of f**king around just to watch HD porn.

Maybe people can answer a question for me about porn?

Why would you need a collection? Particularly a large collection? Presumably you masturbate to it, do you really need a lot? How much masturbation do you really need to do if you have a partner?

Or do you just watch it cause you like watching people f**k?

It's something that has always eluded me I guess.

Now that you've got that super hi-speed internet connection I shudder to think how many cream pies and pearl necklaces you'll be able to store on your PC and associated external drives in your quest to have the largest porn collection of all Eels fans... I'm rooting for you!

What have I done to deserve this smear on my reputation ? :crazy:
