Is it true that Australians really have data caps on home internet? Like you have on a cell phone? Imagine being able to only use 16GB of internet every month.
Let's all take a moment and laugh.

when you drink and smoke you get several kinds of cancer. cancer needs chemo, and in australia the medicare system pays for it. the tax rates are designed to have a two fold effect: deter people from drinking so much so that they don't get expensive cancer in the first place, and to fund the chemo so the tax payers at large don't have to pay for the brunt of the chemo

It does depend on how many people you have in your house how much they download. For 3 people, 1000Gb is more than enough so its not worth spending extra just for unlimited tbqf.
Levi Howard
speed is reduced. you don't actually think they'd turn it off?
however, uncapped is available here

All at least 1080p, none of that yify shit.

Zachary Evans
I was wondering if they'd try to charge you more. The prices are already too high for what you get, tbqf.
Brayden Stewart
Basically the same. Some companies you can just ring and they give you extra data with w/o capped speed for no charge, other companies will charge for that shit.
Jose Brown

aussie laws are draconian
if you want "reasonable" gun laws than look at switzerland
by banning and confiscating the majority of firearm types you pass a draconian measure

so there's that, but honestly it's not too bad. i get a lot of free services from the gumment to help balance everything out.

They are, but to put it in comparison. The average cost of internet is Australia is $60 a month, which is a few dollars more than 3 hours of min wage work.

Here, the lower price is 3 AUD for a year, then you can bargain a price between 3 AUD and 30 AUD if you tell them you'll move to another provider.
Ian Roberts
How many times have you needed to use a gun in your life?
If it's more than 0 than you probably don't live in a developed country

You must've come from somewhere pretty crap to be studying mathematics here of all places.
Jack Ward
Why would you come to Australia of all places to study mathematics
Tyler Fisher
nice, eurobro. hold down the motherland for me, look after that good internet.
Cameron Hill
it's flawed because I say so
Yep. Peer reviewed research is wrong because it does not adhere to my preconceived beliefs.
Cry more armchair """"""""""scientist"""""""""
My nigga You severely underestimate how much is costs to keep the elderly alive. Smokers saving money in the long run because they die earlier has been replicated multiple times in different countries.

Asher Turner
Noice. What place of study?
Jack Carter
it says right there in the article
>study did not take into account.....
just torture the data until it confesses, and shelve the stuff that doesn't fit the narrative.
it's how you get funded. it's wrong; it's not good for science because it's not good science, but it happens a lot more than you'd be comfortable with.
Daniel Jackson
Well, 0 of course
There's like 5 black people in my city. May get a gun for fun though.

I use 1-2TB a month usually. I have 1 webdav drive with 1TB for free, and 1 webdav drive of 2TB for a few €. I use these a lot. That and downloads, software updates and constantly new installs(3 laptops, 2 pc's, 1 server, many many vm's) Netflix, etc.

Joseph Green
It took the most important costs into consideration which are medical costs.
>b-but the study didn't look at all costs
Because it was unable to. Learn how science works dipshit. EVERY study has limitations. What matters the most is replication of the finding elsewhere by other researchers. This was already accomplished when I linked you TWO studies.
>funded
It was funded by the dutch government you paranoid faggot.
Andrew Fisher
>gun laws are so important
>i never need a gun

sounds just about right desu
Caleb James
Is gun law a red herring?
Robert Wood
Yeah, that's a lot compared to my house. We've only got one PC, one laptop and a whole bunch of mobiles and tablets which don't really use much data since most downloads barely get past 30mb in size.
And speed does contribute too. The faster the speed the more you download.

Australia might very well be the worst first world country on the planet.
>no authentic cuisine

>dangerous small spiders who can kill you easily
>no real car market because of expensive imports
>9/10th of the country is the "outback"
>cities are full of hipster shit and people from Europe "backpacking"
>nothing can come in the country, flying to Australia seems like a fucking hell due to customs you see on Discovery Channel
>no "good" sports teams in anything
>haven't won any war or participated in any conflict of reasonable importance, so no pride
it is literally a island which happens to have people on it
the lack of identity and patriotism is what makes the youth such an abomination which is often spotted in online communties, where they are the rotten apples (second place, next to Brazil, in lowest quality contributions)
there is nothing special or even noteworthy about australia, it is just a country with reasonable wealth and lots of problems and issues due to it being an island and people too busy with "just living day to day" rather than actually building a great country
Owen Reed
Mine is unlimited, but it's still expensive (~$100/month for landline, internet, mobile phone)
Chase Brown
i like that last paragraph
Brandon Smith
Ah, Van der Bantz, good to see you again.
here's that latest investment report you wanted
Evan Gutierrez
Well, when you use online drives as local drives and for backups that are synched every moment of the day, it adds up. It is just convenient. The fastest standard internet is not available everywhere but it is a nice 10Gbit. I am only at 100/100Mbit but as soon as they lower the prices for 1Gbit a litte more I am taking that. My ISP also offers usenet access for free, downloads as fast as whatever your speed is which may be up to half of what I use.
Bentley Rodriguez
It is true though. This page describes it accurately:
cpd.org.au
"define an Australian as one who lives here, is a citizen and accepts certain core values which characterise Australian society. A defining feature of Australian identity might be that we are relaxed about it and that we reject xenophobia and jingoism?"
At the end the author isn't even sure what values define an Australian identity. The only thing which makes you Australian is the name of your country. Other than that, there is zip to it. No history, no ancestors or national pride. Nothing.
When you get invaded by another country, the only thing you have to fight for is the right to live in Australia and be "Australian". There is nothing else which would be lost, it would just be different ground for a different settler. This is also why the Australian people are weak minded and so openly towards slipping down of society with cases like third wave feminism and LBGT ideologies. If you have nothing to live for, you are painfully easily to influence. You are literally riding the hype because there is nothing else to ride.
Lincoln Cruz
When I was in my early teens (probably up until 14ish) we had a 20gb cap. Then I convinced parents to get better internet, we went a bit higher (maybe 50?) and eventually to 200 when I was about 17. I think their provider might have given them another free upgrade to 500 or so but I was the one using most of it so since I moved out there's no way it'd be that much.
Nathaniel Walker
I'm going to be moving in with friends next year, do any of you have good plans? I'd want at least 1tb but probably unlimited
Joshua Howard
i know, that's why i said i liked it
Tyler Rodriguez
did you even read the original study, the dutch one you're so confident in?
>"But it also makes sense. If you live longer, then you cost the health system more."
that's his hunch. but no shit. if anyone, smoker or non-smoker, lives longer, they are going to cost the health system more.
the guy "discovered" the equivalent of "water is wet". of course he wanted that sweet government grant, it's easy money.
i would post something like this, but it's not going to make any sense to you

I think what you did there is kinda cool. You basically said there's no other place in the world like Australia.
Julian Peterson
I used to have capped data. But when I moved out to my own place with a few mates, we got unlimited. Living with multiple people is nightmarish with a limited plan.

And smokers actually save money because again they die earlier, it costs a shitton to take care of the elderly, and pension payouts.
