@AtkinElise@Peter_Fitz He's not saying that he's buying a new one. He's saying he's purchased his last one. That may have been a week ago or several years ago.
@VascosNebula@Peter_Fitz In an operating environment like an EV, the vehicle should continue to function as intended well past the end of support for the OS. This is quite common for software driven machinery in construction and manufacturing, with equipment remaining productive for several decades.
@hilltowntrader@LolOut160461@Currentreport1 Almost no cargo goes through the straight, it's predominantly oil and LNG. China doesn't really care as they get most of that from Russia. The Europeans, understandably, are saying "You fucked it, you fix it" to the US.
@DeanChill@SuperImpose29@Peter_Fitz And the conservative right fail to understand that the Australian public overwhelmingly rejected right wing politics at the last election. The LNP didn't lose because they had moved to the left, they lost because the public consider that they moved too far to the right.
@GideonCRozner Abbott represents the sort of conservative politics that has been resoundly rejected by the Australian voters. His return would see the LNP remain in opposition for a very long time.
@Peter_Fitz Fair point, especially considering the amount of commentary about how bad Labor is running things. The Libs are just so on the nose in Vic they have no chance.
