Will the 10km limit get reduced to 5km?

I was reading earlier that they're now running swabs from the current cases where the source is unknown against the hotel quarantine swabs for the whole country.

on hold to legal aid just repeating this to myself over and over like a mantra

im permabanned poster caredresser. i first started reading ausgbs when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of “derro” and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like “should i bang 16 yr olds” and “i love cruising the mental hospital” in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia. im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of “derro” style of ausgbs humor was all about; i think it’s the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who “get” ausgbs to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.

Yeah, I'm typically the first get worried about it but all the known cases that've popped are expected ones. The big increase was all from that aged care facility, and while that's worrying for it's own reasons it's accounted for already and contained.



The real news is Scummo and Gladys wanting the VIC lockdown lifted ASAP and harping on about how NSW is able to isolate just a small part of Sydney when they had a lockdown, and no-goddamn-poo poo a much larger and wider-distributed state and city can lock down individual parts of itself, you loving idiots. When we did that here, the rich folk just made for their summer homes in Mornington and took COVID with them.

Our Christmas lockdown included summer home locations and it pissed people off. Our original lockdown last year came with the warning that it wasn't OK for people to escape to their holiday homes. Of course one of our politicians got caught doing exactly that.

These days, even the possibility of a lockdown has people scrambling to get places before it comes into effect.

I went to uni with a guy who did this except he thought the exam was the day after it happened. He spent the day of the actual exam cramming for it. We had another exam the next day (the day he thought he had two exams) but he has spent all of his time studying for the one that he missed.

At least these days when we lose power we have 1000 drill batteries, USB LEDs and power banks to keep rooms lit and things working.

But mobile data instantly dies so you have to read a book and go to bed early anyway.

The wording on the article is kinda weird. I got the same impression you did at one point, but they also suggested it was simply compromised by the authorities.

e: they are announcing it today to distract from the vaccine rollout and the lockdown, and scotty from marketing had about as much to do with it as you or I, so it makes sense hes taking the credit for it.

It's reads like a "USB found in the parking lot" penetration test that basically resulted in the FBI opening a backdoor into these organisations.

It's barely social engineering, I love it :allears:

I used to occasionally do some tech support for a bikie club Back In The Day. Had to explain to them why things like wifi at the club might be bad if they wanted to keep things private.

quote:

The Australian Federal Police have provided more detail about how the AN0M app came to be spread around the criminal syndicates.

AFP built a capability to access decrypted communications between customised phones.

These handsets were modified so they could not call or email and people could only communicate with someone else on the same platform.

You had to know someone to get hold of the phone and once they began being used by senior criminal figures, they became to be used more widely.

“These criminal influencers put the AFP in the back pocket of hundreds of alleged offenders," Commissioner Kershaw said.

“Essentially, they have handcuffed each other by endorsing and trusting AN0M and openly communicating on it – not knowing we were watching the entire time."

lmao so they literally sent people into crime syndicates to hand out phones using this app the gov/FBI created.
