Australia swelters in record heatwave as temperatures soar to nearly 50C Australian Open crowds dwindle and players in the tennis tournament hold ice to their heads as heat in Melbourne exceeds 45C. Hopetoun and Walpeup see highs of 48.9C.
The truth is usually more complicated than the headline

Quanta

I could do with a but of sun but thats too hot even for me. Like Mexico all over again.

QuantumDay

They are used to it. and the fires. the whole land requires the fires to rejuvinate
I'm not always right, but I'm never wrong ;)

codeberg

yes but that will add to the C02? will it not?

QuantumDay

Same here. Yeah I get that.

Cheers.

The way this has been framed in the media does not quite match the underlying detail. Most people form opinions on things like this before the full picture is available.

Worth keeping an eye on.
ISA maxed. Costs minimised.

Makes sense. You are not wrong.

Nice one.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?

VB

Same thing happened to me. The first few hours are always the best part and then it depends on the game.

Worth a try if you get the chance. ::)

That is pretty much it. Every time without fail.

Thanks for that.

Quanta

Yeah that is the sensible route. That is the sensible starting point.

Totally

Yeah that is about right. Nice one.

VidiTechnica

Can't argue with that. Ha, fair enough.
Be excellent to each other

veritas.io

I got to the same conclusion a different way but yes. Give it a go and report back.
Coffee first. Questions later.

Demi-Q

Fair point, I would not argue against it. Statistics tell part of the story but they never capture the full picture.

Interested to see where this goes.
Leading the charge in cybersecurity and digital defense.

Totally

I would probably do it differently. Good thread this.

Not gonna lie, I had not thought of it that way. Might have to look into that more.
My team is always one signing away

QuantumKnight

From what I saw that checks out. The incentive structures in media mean certain angles get more coverage than they deserve.

I don't know about that. Nice one. :D

VB

QuoteI don't know about that. Nice one. :D

Yeah that sounds about right. Still playing it tbh.

HeartbreakKidStinger64

Not sure about that bit tbh. Some of the best games I have played were ones I picked up with zero expectations.

Can't really go wrong with it.
git commit -m "fixed everything"

Paige_68

That is the nuanced version of it. I like threads like this because people come at the same thing from different angles.

Glad this came up.
Forum veteran. Battle hardened.

StuckOnDestiny

There is something right about that. There is a bit more nuance to it once you sit with it for a while.

There is a lot more to say about this.

KnotKnull

That is the sensible approach. Not a life changer but it adds up.

Pixel Mark

QuoteThat is the sensible approach. Not a life changer but it adds up.

Not worth cutting corners on that part. Post a photo when it is done.

ParallelSelf90

People always say this after a good run of results. Cannot wait for the game to settle it.

Glenn

Okay that makes more sense than what I had in my head. I have been down a rabbit hole on this and still feel like I am missing the full picture.

Might have to look into that more.
