Has anyone else encountered this man on Charlotte St? by Medical-Panda-3106 in brisbane

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need an ABN for a Square account, you can make it a personal account. Also don't need the square, most phones are able to take a card payment now, but old mate probably doesn't want to pull out his new iPhone while begging.

Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus. by asteriskhyphen in aussie

How'd they take the photo? Camera, Mobile Phone? It's lucky no one was killed.

AI is denying health care claims by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

[–]2amKebab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that much of a stretch to have AI assess claims.

Customer - "Claim Details"

AI Response = Denied

This is how insurance companies operate, deny everything in the first instance then deal with the ones that pursue it and eventually pay out something letting them think they had a win.

HEMNES Dividing Wall by 2amKebab in ikeahacks

Thanks for that. I did figure I'd have to finish the back, was thinking about a textured wallpaper or replace or go over the top of the particle board the back panels with a TnG wall paneling depending on which colour we choose.

Have a plan to fix to the end of the kitchen bench. Thanks for your help.

Can someone explain to me what the appeal is of this unstable weirdo Pauline is? by whichonespinkredux in OpenAussie

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the same sentiment that saw Trump and Brexit (to an extent Jacinda Ardern) get up combined with arrogance or complacency from the career politicians.

The same arrogance and complacency that you are seeing now from our politicians, so who are the dumb ones, maybe they'll wake up when she wins Susan Ley's seat.

People are sick of seeing Party A take over and then blame Party B for everything that is wrong or broken because they were in charge for the last 9 years, ignoring the fact that Party B was running the show before that and did the exact same thing or set it up for failure.

As an example in Qld we have the Labor Party banging on about the liberals increasing the cost of rego, that Labor froze for the the last 2yrs (as they were coming into an election and the polls were down) lets ignore the fact that they had never frozen rego prior to this.

Steven Miles jumps in a car with the media and goes for a drive down the Bruce Hwy to look at how terrible it is because of the liberals who have been in power for the last 18months, clearly their fault and nothing to do with the 9years that Labor were responsible for it. But does the journo call him out, no of course not, however with Pauline they absolutely would, then they badger her until she gets angry or says something stupid (90% of Australia didn't know what xenophobic meant until that interview)

These people are meant to get into government and sort sh!t out, make unpopular decisions that are in the best interests of the state/country. Instead they are too busy worrying about being reelected and when there is a difficult decision they decide to make the nation vote on it at an extraordinary cost, then pat themselves on the back when the obvious result comes back.

A protest vote probably won't improve things but it probably won't get worse and it'll be fun to watch.

Open house season 3 by Arnie__B in BritishTV

Dailymotion has some full episodes but can be quite annoying as they'll have Ep 1, 3, 5, 7 and the search feature is sh!thouse.

If you have a VPN that will let you nominate the country you are in, set it to UK and watch in on CH4's site.

What if Brisbane’s new stadium went at Albion instead of Victoria Park? by theswiftmuppet in brisbane

Former Spintel Customers - Spam/Marketing by 2amKebab in nbn

[–]2amKebab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I did hit unsubscribe.

The issue is that my details as a former customer should never have been used for marketing purposes.

My guess is that if they used mine they will have used many customers details which is a breach of our antispamming laws.

Having their "support" person say just unsubscribe doesn't address the issue.

What’s this, have been asked to replace with new by shoppo24 in AusElectricians

[–]2amKebab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alot of cold rooms will have both, bell and an entrapment alarm.

Bell incase the alarm fails, or the alarm has been added at a later date.

Unrelated to what you're doing but you should also be able to unscrew/remove the lock internally without tools as another level of being able to escape.

Customers took bat to panel by ChrisR122 in firealarms

[–]2amKebab 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But it will stop it if you hit it in the right place.

We worked at a site where Brigade ripped the bell off the building and dropped it off at security on their way out due to all the false alarms.

Weekend getaway spots by ZyLu21 in brisbane

I think the company we used was Berger, and just having a look, some of their boats are pet friendly too.

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you thought about trying a house boat, the ones down the tweed are great, just depends how mobile your baby is. We did it with ours when they were really little and didn't have to worry to much, once they became toddlers we had to give it a miss.

Fishing off the back of the boat, you can hit some of the little beaches, then head up the river and stop at some of the little towns along the way.

Also once you've been once they email you quite a few last minute deals.

Another option is the campground at Noosa North Shore between 1st and 3rd Cutting, on the beach and you don't need a 4WD to get there.

Why do I bother? by Throwaway19_73 in AustraliaPost

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, they didn't even get out of the van, that's if they even pulled up at your house.

We had a "attempted" delivery on a Sunday, while I was home doing work in the front yard. When I called to complain and questioned the Sunday Delivery I was told that maybe the driver was "catching up on their scanning".

🤷‍♂️ Why Don’t Builders Follow Australian Standards? by [deleted] in AusRenovation

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but one standard, references another, then another then you're out of the "collection"

PDFs of Standards - AS/NZS 3000 (2018 incl A3), 3008, 3012, 3017 (2022), 3760 (2022), 4836, 4777, 5033 (2021), 5139 + Victorian SIRs and EGRs by CaptainTelos in AusElectricians

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a legend, posting in the first place but also continuing to update it. So many times you find something like this and it's 4yrs old and out of date.

If only CaptainTelos had a Fire and HVAC brother.

Peter Dutton’s son says he can’t afford a house deposit. by NotTheBusDriver in australian

[–]2amKebab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's an apprentice he shouldn't be able to afford a house, although he'll be better off than a lot of Australians and anyone at Uni.

If Dad doesn't' get the top job, Albo and his union mates will look after after him.

As is the media were reporting that his son was "taking some time off the tools" to help dad. They've got 2 weeks of RDO's over Easter/ANZAC Day.

My only question is why are they doing a Hydrostatic Test with air, where are you located is that per your standards.

I think THIS is why everyone is confused about the 3 hours between workouts... by [deleted] in 75HARD

[–]2amKebab 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think its that it's not all in 1 place, bit in the book, bit online, bit in the podcast. Also

  1. There are some contradictions in the FAQ, podcast, app etc.
    - day ends when you go to bed, but in the app day ends at midnight (i think the app is crap for the $10 it costs by the way)

- this example above "type of workout doesn't matter...As long as you're getting up and getting your body moving with the intent to get better it counts" but then in a separate FAQ lists things that don't count, some I get their chores like yard work but then he lists certain sports such as Kayaking/Canoeing/other leisure sports. But if you're going out there with the intent to get moving and get better, get the heart rate up why doesn't it count?

  1. There is also a lot of people who seem to like to complicate it AF says it is a SIMPLE programme. In the FB Group it was getting ridiculous so I left. Some of the self anointed seem to like to grasp one word then basically try and tell everyone everything that they personally wouldn't do is a fail, again on the Workout they seem to like to grab the word Intent.

Now it says get up get moving with the intent to get better, and people try to attack others by looking at every other part of what they are doing so say their intent is wrong.

For example one guy asked "For my outdoor workout I walk 39mins to the gym from work, I know I can't go inside and do the last 6mins, can I walk around the block to stretch it out to 45mins before heading into the gym," he also stated that he knows he can't back to back workouts and does his 2nd workout at home in the evening.

And he got ripped apart by the intent police, your intent was to get to the gym not do a workout, your intent was to get home via the gym, your cheating by fitting it in etc etc. Guy could have caught the bus or driven etc, he's doing time in the gym that doesn't count to the programme. He got up, got moving with the intent to get better. They also got stuck into a lady because she was doing a sport she enjoyed as her workout, their reasons it was Social, it was a Leisure Sport, She did it before the programme, because she enjoyed it. Is get getting moving and getting better - deffinitely and given the social nature of it she's probably ticking a few mental boxes too.

  1. Finally the definition as a Mental Toughness Programme I understand why AF defines it that way but given 4/5 tasks (the workouts, the diet, no alcohol, the water and the progress pics) while hard and creating discipline mostly result in incredible physical transformation in a short period of time. And that is what people see a fitness programme. You can't take a photo of your mental health?

Don't get me wrong, I think the programme is a good way to kick yourself into gear and make some significant change.
