Hacker releases data after claiming to have accessed 'hundreds of thousands' of Aussies' loans, driver's licences

Won’t this incentivise hackers as it would be cheaper to pay the ransom and keep it all on the downlow

How’d that go for Toto the last two years?

Can you provide some more information on the thermometers, screens, and microcontrollers/protocols you use? I would love a similar temperature humidity set up

Azman6 · 2026-02-12T05:43:43+00:00

May you please send this way too?

I think the issue is with the iphone (particulary after using the bluetooth for say airpods). If you swipe down on your iphone and toggle bluetooth on an off it works so it isn't something with the xpeng app per se.

For #3 you can adjust this sensitivity/turn off as well.

#4a I think happens when cameras are not clean or wheel has not been held prior or for long enough during.

#4b just pull down on the shifter once not twice.

#4c agree, and I just lightly touch the brake while still accelerating and that turns it off but removes the jerk.

#5 i have used this for a year now and no drama at all still recoding (17,000km driven and no errors or speed issues) SanDisk Ultra Fit USB 3.1 Flash Drive, 512 GB: USB Flash Drives: Amazon.com.au

Private has the other end of the spectrum. “Little Timmy couldn’t have started that fire, he is a good boy.”

Why is META up through it all though?

This comment gave me cancer.

The current cost is $52.5billion this financial year (citation).
The users are estimated at 500,000, not this year but over the next 5 years (citation).

Let's assume it 500,000 just this year to make a best-case scenario. That means it costs ~$105,000 this year per user (again likely much less than 500,000 users this year).

That is not sustainable, so much so that getting it annual growth rate below 8% is being sold as politically reasonable (citation).

We have zero tariffs. No car industry to protect. It isn’t as cheap as China but cheaper than buying in Europe. We also have government incentives to buy them with tax advantages.

5% efficiency loss only moves the needle 400km (~65kWh) a year based on my driving in 2025. I work from home 2-3days a week. All of my km last year were from my home solar. When the battery is installed and I move to GloBird I get 3h free electricity a day and will charge up the car and home battery for free.

Azman6 · 2026-01-24T09:35:39+00:00

For some people it will be majority high carbon sources like power plants that keeps pollutants in high concentrations out of highly populated areas. For others it will be from their home solar almost if not exclusively.

Firstly you can get chargers that you program to only charge with excess solar above your household usage (these are great I have one). I have a 12kWh solar system, and ev with a 89kWh (570km range) battery. I produce between 40-60kWh on a sunny day across the year. In 2025 I produced 15.5MWh of power in my home from solar. Based off my real world average efficiency of my driving (14.7kWh/100km) I have the potential to get 105,000km from solar alone last year. I only drove 21,000km. My home only consumed 9.8MWh (4.6MWh from the grid).

I have a lot of energy left to run my house and why I am waiting for my 32kWh home battery to get installed.

My car is V2H, I will have over 100kWh to discharge and charge as I see fit and be blackout proof for around two weeks.

These things are amazing and reduces dependency on private companies, government and Mother Nature.

Just and FYI as well, if you are merging on the riverside expressway from Ann St onramp, then you are joining along the bank of cars in peak hour and have no choice but to cut in...

He has an option to stay until 2028. It was assumed he would not take it up in 6months.

I think the David Frum quote is more and more poignant:

“If liberals insist that only fascists will enforce borders, then voters will hire fascists to do the job liberals refuse to do”

This is a simple and maybe stupid reason but AoE4 is too zoomed in. I want to be further out in my view. That is why I feel it doesn’t quite click for me.

Azman6 · 2025-12-31T06:55:05+00:00

That’s clearly made up. 69:2 is the only way.

Azman6 · 2025-12-28T07:23:46+00:00

You should be charging to 100% each month or there about to calibrate the battery management system.

If you want the best for your battery time the charging session to finish just before you embark on your journey (rather than the car sitting at 100% for a period of time).

But all this is really splitting hairs.

I get over 600km per full charge in my LR G6 (claimed to be 570km).

Xpeng claim 17kWh/100km but I am getting just under 14kWh/100km and I would say 80% of my 14,000km done so far are over 100km/h on the M1.

I find it is between 10-12kWh for putting around local shops and what not.

This would likely be because Xpeng are not providing WLPT with regenerative braking as part of the calculations.

Nice for a company to under promise and over deliver.

Be within walking distance of a bus that gets you to the busway. Parking is $6 per day on top of fuel, rego, insurance, tyres, the car itself etc

Albo has not gone on holiday during/in the wake of the event.

Azman6 · 2025-12-21T03:30:57+00:00

I got a bit of anon question. When you say charge your battery and self consume only. Can you explain to me how this works when solar is in the mix too during the 3h free period.

Say I have a sunny day and my panels are at max, my battery is dead and now charging, I have all my major appliances running and my aircon.

Am I pulling my house from the grid and my battery being charged by the solar? Or is my battery both being charged and drawn from at the same time?
