Brisbane also just had a snap 4 day lock down that seems to have worked, and the mine sight in the NT also locked down straight away and shut down transmission. The solution is to not gently caress around, now Sydney is finding out.

It's been pretty typical for ages to think we just dig poo poo up and ship it overseas when we could do a lot more processing here, but this solidifies those thoughts.

Carbon capture and storage is bullshit and no attempt in the world had shown good results. Blue hydrogen is bullshit and is just a way for coal mines keep digging poo poo up The biggest direct carbon capture plant in the world opened in Iceland and it only captures the equivalent of the output of about 900 cars a year. The Glasgow meeting is going to be a whole bunch of countries arguing about how their bullshit is so much better than everyone else's. NET zero is just a weasel term to justify continuing to output huge amounts of carbon into the atmosphere but saying you'll make up for it in some magical technological way.

I notice no mp recently has actually resigned their position in parliament permanently in disgrace. It's always just resigning from their ministry positions to sit on the backbench with their thumb up their arse until the heat blows over.

I've got a mate who's not vaxxed and had been saying he didn't know how safe it was, he was young and healthy, blah blah blah - all the usual taking points. I asked him what he would do if the gov (Qld) mandated fully vaxxed to go out to gyms etc when they open up and his argument now is just "nope, I won't- just because they're making us" I think it's possible that's a lot of people's stance - pure stubborn opposition because they're being told to.

If they run a campaign on how much of a fuckup Morrison and his cronys have been they'd win for sure. If they take the path of and just run on policy reforms they're hosed.

Scomo had terminal marketing brain (even though he had been fired from marketing jobs multiple times.) I don't think he's had a genuine emotional response in public apart from the few times he's gotten fed up with reporters and snapped a little..

Bucky Fullminster posted:You get that this in itself is significant and can potentially change the future of Australia, right? If they suppress enough of the ALP vote in the right electorates, they can absolutely swing the election. And even just having all that kind of content being thrown around makes a difference too. I was trying to imply that they're not going to be any different than people voting for other crank groups. They all flow towards LNP. People voting for Cossacks would have just voted for some other gently caress wit anyway.

25000 is probably the level they know hospitals are absolutely going to collapse at, so I'm sure they put out a statement to say modelling showed that's where we're going to peak. Doubling every two days baby. We're going to see mass death because hospitals won't be able to admit anyone.

Goffer posted:Hospitalisations / icu / ventilators got up to 1268 / 242 / 123 last outbreak. Yeah, hospitalisation lags infection, death lags hospitalisation. I expect the hospitalisation graph will follow the infection curve and then the death curve will follow that.

One doctor in South Africa said the few people she had treated who were getting sick with omicron were all quite young so they had mild cases. That was taken and signal boosted to the loving moon to mean covid was over and Let 'er Rip. Now we're here, you're welcome Australia.
