Yep we have no way to compete with low income countries.

Firstly their wages is very low.

Secondly the amount of inductions and safety related stuff people have to attend to even for an office job, it was literally the entire first week and a yearly update.

Then all the other compliance you have to do. Twice yearly fire drill. Need multiple people on site that's certified for first aid, fire wardens and the whole coordinator.

A whole month of people's working life every year is paid in annual leave and that's not even counting sickies or other personal leave. Overtime rates starting at 1.5.

When someone dies on the job here people get in a lot of shit (and rightly so).

In China people are kept in dormitories and a friend who was born there said that lower educated people who usually takes this job are kept in dormitories so they can spend more time working (less time commuting). Some are known to only get 1 day off a month, which isn't unusual.

Definitely no overtime rates, no sickies or personal leave (don't work don't get paid) no annual leave.

If someone has an accident at work well there's 10 waiting at the door to replace them. Same if they quit. You want more wages? Well bye, there's someone to replace you.

Not saying that's correct but that's the reality. We will never be able to complete because their standards for workers is way lower.

We should focus on high tech industries. Health/education industry we should increase wages for nurses and teachers.

More investment in IT, FinTech etc. Banking, consultancy, etc white collar jobs.

Let the lower income countries do the dangerous jobs and focus on high return safer jobs in Australia.

They'll pay a very heavy price. How far is the Taiwan strait? If you think D-day is bad you haven't seen anything yet. Many wouldn't even make it to the beach.

Having said that they do have excess males, they'll probably be better off to lose those. Because only the numpty bellends join the armed forces, the ones with more than 2 brain cells have some self preservation. Noone joins the armed forces if you have other prospects in China.

Many people will lose their only child. This cannot be good as many people will protest. However the government has one advantage over other countries.

China isn't as unified as propaganda leave you to believe. Noone gives a shit about anyone other than their immediate family members. You can see this when people get run over and noone helps. Or how they push and do everything to be first in line with no regard for anyone else.

Money is king in China thesedays. They will probably have no issue shaking down or worse their countrymen if they get a bonus or two, all they have to do is import people from the next province or two to do the dirty work.

Not saying it's a smart idea but just saying they could probably contain the blowback of the body bags coming home and lose the most unproductive of society in the process.

We'll see if Xi goes fuck it I wouldn't be around for the consequences when he gets older. He's 70 now, in a decade he will be 80. The average age in China is 78. He probably will beat that as he would have the best health care but beyond that it's not guaranteed. So not much to lose for him.

Guess which of your competitors offer remote working and has a product that smokes you?

Haven't touched VMware for years Hyper-V does everything I need.

Now with Azure I don't even need to manage the virtualisation just use an arm template to spin something up in 2 secs. I know Azure compute uses something based off Hyper-V, haven't really used AWS, does Amazon use technology from VMware for their virtualisation?

China and Taiwan can be one country tomorrow. I've said it a hundred times.

All China has to do is cede full control to Taiwan. It will be governed by Taiwan but it will be one country.

Yes I know it's too hard politically and unrealistic. Because they don't really want unification they want control.

With Dutton in the opposition Albanese doesn't even need to try. He can practically do whatever he wants and be re-elected next time.

Trams can also have right of way. For example Dulwich Hill line is a tram the entire section.

However it would prove a conundrum for tfnsw, the T sign is already taken by trains.

There are home chargers that do 7kw/h with installation. Last I checked it was a few grand so quite cheap all things considered.

Not sure how you got 30km,

Stage 1: Tallawong to Chatswood - 36km - 5 years construction. Opened 2019

Stage 2: Chatswood to Bankstown - 30km - 2017 start, new section will open in a few months, converted section in 2025) - 8 years

Stage 3: St Marys to Aerotropolis - construction started last year or there abouts finishing in 2026 in time for the airport opening, let's say 5 years? 23km

Stage 4: Hunter Street to Westmead 24km, construction started 2020, this one will take a decade to do.

Regardless of how you put it it's 113km in a bit less than two decades.

Just need to poach some more competent workers from NSW, they're having 113km of track by the end of the decade.

Maybe some project managers as they can manage a few projects going at the same time. This saves alot if time.

I'm still unsure why the SRL will be taking another few decades to build.

I think if they passed the legislation first as a trial and then if it went well put it through a referendum there would be more support.

I'm not saying he would but he could just force it through legislation now, with the greens support and independents support, Pocock is in ACT who was the only place to vote yes, I think they have enough to pass.

Sure it will go against the results of the referendum, or "the will of the people" but it will be a legal way to do it. I think if it went through legislation it would become like GST, deeply unpopular at the time but it just becomes fait accompli and noone would dare reverse it. Because once in noone wants the optics of being "the racist in the parliament" besides maybe ONP.

I hope you have that machine on a separate VLAN that's completely firewalled, segregated from the rest of your network, with access to the internet but not the rest of your LAN.

Because if it does then other devices on your network would be potentially vulnerable.

I've worked with PC's that are out of support and the company too tightarse to pay for windows updates. The LAN cable was unplugged and you could only access it by physically being on the PC, but it won't work in your instance as you need the internet to play games.

It sure does. But if businesses haven't panicked then a home user doesn't need to.

Reviewing and redoing intune policies, deployments, software compatibility testing, driver deployment ,reconfiguring autopilot and testing through the rings is an absolute pain in the arse.

For personal deployments you can deploy within one day. No need to worry about any of the above. So if businesses aren't worried yet neither should regular consumers.
