Great point. So, they have your support to hose down the Police?
Who else? Politicians? Muggers? The military? Me, because I disagree?

If they disagree with the government, just hose down the police, eh?

The Police apprehend criminals, facing threats to their lives at any corner. Should they also be allowed to shoot politicians? Or just handcuff them? Hit them with batons?

As entertaining fodder it may be for VideoSift, I disagree.
Though I voiced my disgust with it, I still upvoted this video btw. Though it's entertaining, it doesn't support my political views.

Disgusting. You're not hired by the state to turn against it. You don't like the retirement plan? Learn another trade where you can sit on your ass all day waiting for an incident.

What!?
I have a job where I sit on my arse all day waiting for an incident, I monitor servers.
The only difference is that when I detect an incident I call somebody in one of the datacentres, these guys run into burning buildings full of smoke and save people's lives!
Let them retire earlier, they've earnt it.

Well, in honesty, I covered the cable lay (PPC-1) for a final year project in my telecoms eng. course, so it wasn't a recent research effort

Theres a few videos of them pulling the fibre through the manholes on land, and at the manhole underwater too. A few shots of the side-scanners, and the plough, and the amplifiers, and the divers placing it on the seabed in shallow waters...just a massive ammount of content. It also covers the deployment of the datacentres that feed the fibre.

Very cool and transparent project. I was going to buy shares when they opened, but didnt have the capital at the time
They opened at something like 20c, and the company sold to an aussie ISP here for something like $3 ea. Insane stock growth over 18 months.
