I reached the point with Kirschen that I hate him so much I can no longer get angry at his genocidal screeds because that would involve exerting too much energy. I refuse to think much about him until the lovely old gently caress finally croaks.

It's the "Mr. Edison, there is a man from government at the door saying he can do things better than you" mentality. Although I can understand some of the confusion in their brains because back in time it was very straight forward: you had one price from morning to night, then another from night to morning. Now prices can fluxuate a lot over the day.

But there are solutions to this. Get a fixed rate contract. Get smart appliances that can take advantage of the cheaper hours. Or just use electricity like you're used to, you will occasionally pay higher rates and occasionally lower. Most of the time the difference is not big enough to cause action.

I could understand with something that doesn't make much noise and uses a ton of electricity, like a tumble dryer, storage heater, or immersion heater (all with a timer) but what clown family is making toast or doing the vacuuming at 3am? Don't they have work in the morning?

(Also the Telegraph went hard against the EU vacuum efficiency rules so I assume the Blower Family went out and bought a 5hp vacuum to stick it to the Euros rather than getting a nice energy efficient one that would still cost them less to use during the day, lol.)

Yeah I can get an Octopus app for my Home Assistant Yellow and then get a Zigbee card or smart plug for anything that uses massive amounts of power, and just get the best rates for that and use everything else as normal.

Or I could be like the Blower Family and boil a week's worth of water at 3am and then freeze it for later.

Pope:

In Australia the "primary vote" is who you put first in our preferential system - that's why you'll also see talk of 2PP or "two party preferred" which is which of Labor or the Coalition you put ahead, with the assumption that one of those will be elected. The rise of the "other" primary vote is changing all that, with minor parties and independents winning more seats and making a future minority government more likely.
