I agree.
Form a “fellowship of the ring” and cast it into the fires of Mount Doom…
Ex-mil, ex-sec, ex-treme, & ex-plosive.
Go ahead. Squeeze me. Crack that vial and watch the fireworks erupt.
Ditching Windows as it has become spyware and adware.
Flipping to Linux.

Sure!
Cardboard isn’t a perfect solution… nor was I suggesting it was any kid of solution.Edit: I forgot it was you who’d already referenced the sketch! Sorry!
I was just making a joke referencing this sketch, featuring Senator Collins:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m5qxZm%5C_JqM3 minutes. Take a look!
It’s one of those rare occasions where it would be better for the environment if “festival tents” were made out of “cardboard” or “cardboard derivatives…”
“Rest of is could vote Green”
“is”? Islamic State?
Oh!.. “us”… you meant “us”. A typo…
So… the “United States”, right?
Am I right?(I’ll shut up now…)
Of course the NSW police approved a neo-nazi rally…
… they wouldn’t want to see their colleagues waste their day off work!

No, I’m not “new to Australia”.The point I was making is that the “duration of our showers” is comparatively insignificant compared to commercial water use and wastage.
Data centres, for AI processing, needlessly waste water resources.
Growing rice and cotton on the world’s driest continent seems a bit stupid.
Screwing the geology of the Great Artesian Basin to extract gas seems short-sighted.
There are FAR more pressing concerns than how much water we individuals use while showering. (Sure, there are some small towns or shires where this is a concern.)
Yeah, right. Any water shortages are likely due to personal hygiene requirements of people, and nothing to do with new b.s. AI data processing centres using gigalitres to cool equipment and maintain humidity levels.
Got it.
Port? Use of “port” to denote a bag, suitcase, or other “carry all”?
Only octogenarians use “port” in this manner…

The ‘ID is required for beer and smokes’ example is misleading.
Most adults are NOT required to provide ID to purchase such items. Only those who look “Under 25 years” *may* be required to produce ID, and even then, that ID is NOT recorded. (An exception may the the NT for alcohol sales.)
Requiring the citizenry to provide ID to either a social media entity OR via a government controlled gateway is something that must NOT be tolerated.
A requirement such as this will ‘chill’ free speech, weaken our democracy, and undoubtedly expose our personal information to hackers.
It’s akin to allowing a person to purchase a pen, paper, envelope, and stamps - but then demanding the writer present both their ID and the unsealed letter at a Post Office, so that one’s written words may be recorded against one’s name.
To paraphrase Robert Bolt, it’s akin to “cutting down privacy to protect children from the devil”.
If you wish to argue in favour of this incoming law, do so *after* you’ve sent a copy of your ID to me.

You said, “Oh…OH!”
Yes, precisely. That is how one may express, in word form, the vocal utterances of a user of such objects at the culmination or ‘climax’ of the experience.
Well… so I’ve heard…
@Salvo
Naah. The bean counters already take the variations in the number of workdays into account.
That’s why, when one hears of economic figures, one often hears the expression “seasonally adjusted” at various points. (Variations in “work days” are one factor of “seasonal adjustment”.)
