@bouta_nt I think about the grey nomads travelling. They will either spend their retirement savings on diesel or be stuck somewhere with nothing left in the tank.

What’s everybody’s plans for Easter? I reckon the fuel prices will affect alot of people’s plans.

@BarrieCarter6 Australia put itself in this position. No fuel security, that was a conscious effort. If it wasn’t this Trump/Netanyahu crisis it would have been something else sooner or later. Consider this a test and a resolve to strengthen our nation against future adversities.

THAT PAIR OF IDIOTS HANSON AND JOYCE BLAMING LABOR 24/7 FOR THE FUEL SHORTEGE HOW BLOODY STUPID SURELY THEY KNOW TRUMP AND NETANYAHU HAVE PUT THE WORLD IN THIS POSITION WHAT A PAIR OF LUNATICS

@_onlyscott Portugal 🇵🇹

Guess the national team? 👀 Level: HARD

@Pirelli_Peeler @SamuelWarmerdam @KiwiEV Well heres the f’king thing. I’ve had solar for 14 years and had inverters blow, panels that lost >50% efficiency and needed a full f’king replacement. I’ve also had high end lithium powered tools and off grid lithium batteries and they don’t f’king last 30 f’king years. F’kwit.

@Execute44 @SamuelWarmerdam @KiwiEV You know nothing about the longevity of lithium ion batteries my friend. They last far longer than 5 years. Try 30. By which time they will be a fraction of the cost they are currently.

EV drivers might feel like they've got all the cheat codes... until gas gets rationed. Then guess which idiots will be the ones going to the office while the gas drivers are enjoying working from home? They might be the ultimate winners in this saga. 😃

@RyanOdo83671395 @GregMcgarvie Can you imagine the ANCAP rating. Front end collision is minus both legs. BHP and RIO won’t be placing orders anytime soon. The EV virtue signallers believe purchase decisions are purely based on the criteria that a PoS is an EV.

@GregMcgarvie @Execute44 🤣🤣🤣 is that a Golf cart.. My god

Fossil Fuel been fooled? Now suffering range anxiety which EV drivers never really had as they know they can charge at home! A trip of 300 km in an EV range 540 km and charged off home solar trip cost $2.70 if only fast charges expensive around $25.50 for 300 km @TheNoisyTrunk @AlanKohler @QLDLabor @QuentinDempster youtu.be/-bV0F6OP31U?si…

@SamuelWarmerdam @KiwiEV As stated, I don’t do tight jeans. I’ll be fine. Most city boys do the tight jeans, hopefully they will take your response on board.

@Execute44 @KiwiEV Sorry to tell you, but baggy jeans are back in, you need to update your rant. You're also wrong on e to e is electrification, but I'll let time tell with that one

@jhoddy58 @newagemaker1 @CarolKirkby1

@Execute44 @newagemaker1 @CarolKirkby1 🤣🤣🤣 sure you are Joe. 🤡

The Guardian broke this. They found a "FIFTH" undeclared flight that she took on "Gina Rineharts" private jet! Don't insult us with taxpayers didn't have to pay... we'll pay "heavily" with you working for her with "big tax breaks for the rich" Voting NO to stop mining taxes etc!

@elonmusk There’s a world of difference. One actually took place, the other is the biggest load of BS in modern history.

Incredible that it was only 66 years from the first controlled, powered flight to landing on the Moon!

@Microinteracti1 Absolute AI content dribble.

America is fighting a war it chose to start alone. And it is starting to show. America is now fighting a war it chose to start alone, and the consequences are no longer abstract. For thirteen months, Donald Trump has spent more time undermining allies than preparing to fight alongside them, publicly belittling NATO partners, treating long-standing security relationships as optional, and assuming that when the moment came, they would still fall in line. NATO collectively fields over 22,000 aircraft and more than 1,100 warships. The European members bring capabilities that matter in this theater: mine-hunting vessels essential for Hormuz, anti-submarine frigates, AWACS early warning aircraft, Alliance Ground Surveillance drones, and a continent-spanning signals intelligence network. Add Canada, Australia, decades of basing agreements, interoperable command structures, and 700 million people whose economies and industrial capacity dwarf anything Iran can threaten. That is what is sitting on the sidelines right now. And Iran has noticed the difference. Iranian precision strikes have now hit US bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Jordan. Iran has fired over 500 ballistic missiles and nearly 2,000 drones since February 28. The US military was built for the Cold War, designed to fight a land war in Europe with allied depth, shared logistics, and burden-sharing across a dozen countries. None of that exists here. Every missile intercepted draws down American stockpiles with no allied production line feeding them back. Western ammunition stocks and missile interceptors are being depleted while the surge in energy prices throws a lifeline to Russia's economy. A different president would have had that burden shared. Britain's mine hunters. Norway's submarines. French carrier strike groups in the Indian Ocean. German logistics and airlift. Australian intelligence integration. The full weight of the Western alliance, distributed across willing partners who understood the mission because they helped design it. The allies broadly agree on the destination -- a non-nuclear Iran, open sea lanes, regional stability. But Europe was not consulted. Europe did not help shape the objectives. The United States launched this operation with little to no consultation, while expecting to use allied bases and receive broad support. "What does Trump expect a handful or two handfuls of European frigates to do in the Strait of Hormuz?" Germany's Defence Minister meant it sarcastically. The answer he did not bother to give: quite a lot, actually. Mine clearance. Escort operations. Anti-drone coverage. Signals intelligence. Logistics depth. The unglamorous, essential architecture of a war that does not end in month two with your stockpiles gone and your strait still closed. But that conversation is now closed. Canada said it had "no intention" of joining and had not been consulted before the strikes. Every NATO nation in Europe refused Trump's call to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump declared the United States "does not need the help of anyone." The Strait remains closed. American soldiers are dying. And 700 million Europeans, Canadians, and Australians -- who would have come, under a different president, without being asked twice -- are watching from a distance they did not choose.

@user_101524 @QBCCIntegrity Shit dribbler.

@Execute44 @QBCCIntegrity What an emotional child.

CONTROVERSIAL OPINION: 1) You can fuel your car for 5 years at $4/Litre for the cost of a cheap EV 2) EV inventories across the country have sold out this week. 3) Our power grid has ZERO CHANCE of keeping the vehicles charged and the lights on. This is a forced transition

@user_101524 @QBCCIntegrity F’k off idiot. Let’s truly evaluate ‘renewables’ costs when all the subsidies end and the warranties on domestic power walls have expired. I’ve owned solar since 2012 and it’s utter shite. Currently have a 10kw system since 2022 and its efficiency is f’king shit.

@Execute44 @QBCCIntegrity Still missing the point. Moving personal vehicles to EV’s allows you to run your plant on diesel easier 🤷‍♂️

@PaulBongiorno @AngusTaylorMP @mattjcan Spoken like a true city slicker that knows f’k all about how Australia runs. I f’king hate used car salesmen.

So the fuel crisis answer from @AngusTaylorMP and @mattjcan is to stymie the transition to a decarbonised economy and cost the revenue billions to remove the pump price pain so motorists can ignore threatened foreign sourced fuel. Gross irresponsibility.

@SandyHorne61 Art is a fraud. I’ve seen my friend’s portatraits. She took me through some galleries where the prices are 10x and half her quality. It’s a stitched up fraud. Whoever thought that just like every other avenue in society local art is under elite political control.

I got the rejection email today. I didn't have any luck with the Australian Geographic photo comp this year. No need for sympathy. I'm used to it. It's very competitive. Here's one of my unsuccessful entries. A yellow-tailed rock wallaby at Boolcoomatta Reserve.

@KiwiEV I’m a Queenslander and own a large property. I don’t wear tight jeans, pointy shoes and sit around drinking lattes which is where this country is at. I’m not bitter about it though. I just watch what’s happening without a care in the world to be honest.

@Execute44 Sounds like you've got everything figured out!

@Secretname98342 @historyinmemes Exactly and now lab grown versions are actually more brilliant.

@Execute44 @historyinmemes Diamonds are one of the most commons minerals on Earth. It's just carbon smosh together. It' scarce because the diamond cartel holds the demand and supply worldwide. It's beautiful, thought.

This is what a $7.2 million bottle of whiskey looks like.

@mark_slapinski Oh, this is original. Don’t expect a Pulitzer Prize for it.

I might lose followers for this, but it needs to be said: Trump is BY FAR the worst president in American history. He's a pedophile, a con artist, and a war criminal. May he burn in hell.

@DailyFerrariTM This is why I’m slowly becoming a Porsche lover. The Italian supercar brands struggle for differentiation from their aggressive sharp lines because they all look the same. Meanwhile Porsche just sticks to what it’s always done. And no problems with speed bumps and potholes.

@messedupcars New tech run on subsidised ‘renewables’. When home batteries start going kaput soon out of warranty and the true cost of solar is revealed we will then reevaluate. The next 5 years will be a tell all.
