      News.com.au is gutter water journalism by Rupert.

      • JD9151 on 18/08/2021 - 08:55

        When I read 'Sydney's weather today will be 19 degrees' the first thing that crosses my mind isn't wondering how this is a part of Rupert Murdoch's insidious agenda

          It's for the 'A Current Affair' style smooth brain that needs to be told what to feel via editorialized articles from junior staff trying desperately to gain clicks for credence in-house.

          Other than the obvious spelling and grammatical errors by staff, it has a gossip magazine feel that churns through content from its international feeder outlets that are just as bad.

          • JD9151 on 18/08/2021 - 09:53

            @FlatulentFrank: Don't disagree with any of that but there are tons of other sites that aren't owned by Newscorp that do the exact same thing (i.e. Pedestrian, Junkee, Yahoo News). Just dismissing someone linking an article on something interesting just because it's been reported from a bad outlet is silly.

              @JD9151: Whataboutisms dont apply here. The comment applies quite well to a poorly constructed linked article, that is indeed gutter journalism as stated. Have you read the article? You cannot say it's anything other than what has been stated which is Rupert news nonsense.

                @FlatulentFrank: Why not just call it bad journalism then? This sort of reporting on crypto would come from any outlet. If you're genuinely concerned about the state of journalism and the media landscape at large then you wouldn't need the bumper sticker phrases relating to Rupert Murdoch. Just being reflexive because an article comes from a certain outlet is silly and this is often rightfully pointed out when someone says some comment about The Age being 'left wing nonsense'

            Crypto is more than BTC. The crypto space is constantly evolving and maturing. Crypto is now about staking protocols to create utility, decentralised finance and Web3.0.

            I would encourage you to do some deeper research into it and you will see what I mean. 5 years ago I was also thinking like you, but since then I have now changed my mind about it.

              Lol, I'm quite a familiar with it. The thing I'm most familiar with is how crypto-nerds keep saying it's the next big thing yet can't point to a single useful implementation of it.
              Worth noting at this point that blockchain has some potential as a technology, but that in no way gives any value to BTC, ETH or any other PonziCoin you care to name other than a sunk cost for R&D.

                @1st-Amendment: I don’t think you are familiar as you claim to be. If you are, you would know there are projects working on things like decentralising mobility apps like Uber, Ubereats etc. When there are no central parties, more money goes back to the driver/restaurant/store and customers. And that’s the power of crypto and blockchain.

                You may say things like this is still in the works, R&D etc, but Rome was not built in a day.

                There are other more well established projects such as decentralised exchanges, which has proven to work.

                      Which is also cryptocurrency, which all require new suckers to buy in to add value. ie the definition of a Ponzi scheme.
                      Nothing Finder are doing are improving anything here, they are merely participating in the game because the company owner is a early adopter in the ponzi scheme so stands to profit by encouraging more suckers to get involved.

                      As soon as you find some use for Cryptocurrency you let me know, because I've looked long and hard and for 10 years I still can't find anything other than profiting from the scam.

        I am sick and tired of this rhetoric. Technically yes it is available to anyone, as the PM has made clear. However, unless you are in Sydney, ATAGI don't recommend AZ as the risk balance is still in favour of not catching covid. Young people outside Sydney are still recommended to get Pfizer.

      "If you are vaccinated then you can't catch the virus from me … and then how the hell does my vaccination status affect you ? If I refuse to vaccinate and catch the virus, then that is purely a consequence of my own personal decision."

      Oh sweet child, vaccinations don't stop you from contracting and transmitting the coronavirus. Being vaccinated greatly reduces your chances of dying from COVID-19, but vaccinated people can certainly still have and transmit the coronavirus.

      • pmx7 on 18/08/2021 - 10:01

        If it doesn't stop transmission nor provide immunity that doesn't meet the definition of a vaccine.

          any preparation used as a preventive inoculation to confer immunity against a specific disease, usually employing an innocuous form of the disease agent, as killed or weakened bacteria or viruses, to stimulate antibody production

          a substance that is put into the body of a person or animal to protect them from a disease by causing them to produce antibodies

          It meets these definitions. It stimulates antibody production against COVID-19 to confer immunity. No vaccine is 100% effective, the fact we have one that is this effective a year after the pandemic broke out is a marvel of modern healthcare. I would expect that the efficacy only increases with time when we learn more about the virus and how to target it more effectively.

      I was able to deposit just $1 to get the $5 credit in the wallet.
      Min trade amount is $25 in the app to trade actual crypto.
