Some of you haven't read the Wasp v Weird Al comic event and it shows 😤
Yep. Most of the time online you won't convince the person you're arguing against, BUT to convince people reading the thread. For the most part, arguing online is performative, for the purpose of the audience rather than the participants.
No, not everything in that list applies to every industry. The car market isn't a monopoly, but it definitely has issues with government and regulatory capture (and perhaps others, I'm not expert in auto manufacturing). But even without those issues the nature of car making today gives it a high barrier of entry for new comers.
And as others pointed out, the fact it's not a monopoly leads to more unpopular ideas being scrapped.
Under capitalism it's always been the case of"what is this worth to you". The difference is in the past if a company overcharges then a competitor could come along and undercut them (so long as the gap was big enough that it made financial sense).
Unfortunately, monopolies, regulatory/government capture, vertical integration, marketing and cartels have gotten so far out of control that consumers are left with little choice but to suck it up. And most governments in the Anglosphere don't really care.
I'm thinking
Warner
Head
Smith
Marsh
Green
Maxwell
Carey
Abbott / Agar
Starc
Cummins
Zampa
I'd prefer someone else opening over Warner, but the selectors are definitely going to pick him.
Hamilton and Piastri make contact
Not sure if link works properly on all apps:

Resulted in a 5 second penalty for Hamilton and a new wing for Piastri.
Not stopping a lot of stupid hot takes about it though.
Yeah, thats what I mean. That's why it's unlikely he'll be replaced, even if he hasn't formally re-signed yet.
Unless he fucks up completely and repeatedly crashes out, Sargeant will keep his seat. James Vowles said that the plan was always to have Sargeant racing in 2024 and the reason he's racing this season is they had an opening and thought it was better to give him a "practice" year in F1 than another year in F2
That will probably be similar to a lot of top teams with all the IPL players in the ODI squads.
I haven't been a massive fan of ODI bilaterals lately, but I've been looking forward to this world cup, should be a good comp.
Australia's uncapped players will get the opportunity to impress in the upcoming T20Is and ODIs
Mitchell Marsh, Australia's new T20I captain and stand-in leader of the ODI side, has been "blown away" by his brief sightings of left-arm quick Spencer Johnson who will get his first taste of international cricket in South Africa.
Marsh expects all the uncapped players heading on the tour - there are four overall including Matthew Short, Tanveer Sangha and Aaron Hardie - will get the opportunity to showcase their skills, but it's Johnson who is the most talked-about after his rapid rise through the game over the last nine months.
As a Richmond fan it's a shame to see him go, but you don't want a coach who doesn't want to be there. Hopefully he can do some good at the Suns, it would be good to see Gold Coast have some success.
Cummins set to skip South Africa tour instead of risking wrist - and backs Marsh to shine as white-ball skipper
Pat Cummins looks set to miss Australia’s ODI tour of South Africa due to his fractured wrist and instead return for the series against India ahead of the World Cup in October.
The World Cup could be Cummins’ last time captaining the ODI side, with the quick to determine after the tournament whether he can continue juggling the role with bowling duties and the Test captaincy.
Cummins injured his left wrist diving in the field on day one of the fifth Ashes Test at The Oval but played on before beginning his ongoing recovery.

Interesting article, thanks for sharing. I always associated the change with the adoption of T20 batting styles into longer form cricket. So it's cool to hear about its evolution in the Shield
Pretty much bang on, the RBA has essentially one tool at their disposal. Even if their decisions are perfect, poor fiscal policy will damage the economy and the RBA can at most put a bandaid on those wounds.
Nice that there's only double ups on Saturdays, going to give people a chance to watch as much as possible.
Seems a bit odd that India v Australia is on Sunday, is that considered a good timeslot?
Controversial non-calls in Collingwood v Geelong match leading to Geelong goals
It was a very close game and Jezza kicked goals off both of these, if I was a Pies fan I'd be a bit salty.
First one is pretty borderline, and the umpire was in a good position to call it:
https://www.theroar.com.au/afl/video/watch-maynard-chucks-ultimate-wobbly-over-supremely-controversial-non-out-on-the-full-call-1297850/
Second one was pretty blatant not sure how they let that one through:

Yes, the health secretary, it literally says so in the headline.
Especially on a relatively new/small space like lemmy. If people start agonising over whether they should reply or not then lemmy won't get a chance to grow.

This is what annoys me, a lot of these replies act like there's a hidden agenda to everything. Saying things like, "They must support white supremacy! It's a racist dog whistle! They're a Trump supporter". Their assessments never have any nuance whatsoever: if you put that on your car, you're all of the above.
That's the whole point of a dog whistle, to hide the true meaning behind innocuous symbols and phrases. And if you're someone who would be targeted by the hate groups using these dog whistles, it pays to be aware of them.
You're right, there should be nuance, because there are people who use these symbols without it being a dog whistle. But to dismiss any concerns is dangerous, and exactly what the hate groups want.

The teams are in for the round 22 Friday night and Saturday games, with the squads in for Sunday
BRODIE Grundy has been thrown a lifeline and will return to Melbourne's team for the first time in five weeks, while Collingwood has recalled Will Hoskin-Elliott and Billy Frampton for Friday night's blockbuster against Geelong.
And in other round 22 team news, Adelaide coach Matthew Nicks has swung a surprise by dropping second-year star Josh Rachele to the substitute role for its match against Brisbane at the Gabba.
Grundy will play for the first time since being dropped following the win over St Kilda in round 17 as coach Simon Goodwin searches for answers to fill the hole left by the injured Harrison Petty.
Not really a surprise, Cotchin's retirement was probably Richmond's worst kept secret this season.
He will definitely go down as one of Richmond's greatest captains. He was instrumental in turning the club from a laughing stock to a premiership team.

Trent Cotchin will retire at the end of the 2023 season, drawing the curtain on one of the great Richmond careers
RICHMOND'S triple-premiership captain Trent Cotchin will bow out of the AFL as a "transformative" and "towering" figure in the proud history of the Tigers.
The 33-year-old has announced his retirement at season's end, likely to be Richmond's round 24 game against Port Adelaide as the club looks set to miss the finals.
Cotchin is battling calf soreness and will sit out Sunday's clash with St Kilda, but is hoping to be available for the Tigers' final two games against North Melbourne and the Power.
After being drafted with pick No.2 in 2007, Cotchin has found his "life purpose" in playing 305 games for Richmond – the fourth-most appearances in club history.
The entire Tigers list, and most club staff, were present as Cotchin was joined by wife Brooke and their three children at Punt Road Oval on Thursday to confirm his retirement.

MUCH-LOVED North Melbourne veteran Ben Cunnington will play his last AFL game this weekend after announcing his retirement on Tuesday.

Inspiring skipper 'Boots' to retire
Inspirational West Coast Eagles captain Luke Shuey has today informed the club of his intention to retire at the end of the season.
After producing one of the great individual performances in Grand Final history, the 2018 Norm Smith medallist has decided to join another former captain Shannon Hurn in calling time at season’s end.
Shuey, a big game star and captain for the last four years, is also a dual John Worsfold medallist, was player of the finals in 2019 and also won the club’s emerging talent award in 2011.
“As much as my mind wants to go on, my body won’t allow it and I have made the decision to retire at the end of this season,” Shuey said.
Yeah, it's not one at all. Plenty of people who yell at the players, but the line is firmly drawn at anything physical.
The patron who touched Marlion Pickett during Friday night’s game has been banned until the end of 2024.

‘Not acceptable and never will be’: AFL hands down punishment over Pickett fan incident
The patron who reached over the fence and touched Marlion Pickett during Friday night’s game at Marvel Stadium has been banned from attending AFL matches until the end of 2024.
Pickett had been beaten in a one-on-one making contest with Bulldog Marcus Bontempelli and overcomitted. As Bontempelli ran into the open goal, Pickett was left getting to his feet over the boundary line.
With his back to the crowd, a rogue fan reached out and patted Pickett repeatedly on the shoulder and then started gesturing to the Tiger as he turned around.

I don't understand this community, so many people complaining about how boring this season is with Redbull winning all the time, and then being told that it is actually really exciting if you look at the competition between the rest of the grid. Then someone posts an article about how exciting the racing is between the rest of the grid and everyone bitches about it.
My pick for the XI:
- Head
- Marsh
- Smith
- inglis
- Green
- Maxwell
- Carey
- Abbott
- Starc
- Cummins
- Zampa
Sub in Agar and Hazelwood for Maxwell and Cummins until they're available. Maybe Stoinis over Green.
