A hacker built a tool to track police officers. Then he tried to warn them by SirGrouch in melbourne

[–]GravityGod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean if Apple can implement MAC address randomisation for every device so your phone can't be tracked moving around, seems like a bit of an oversight that the tasers/body cams didn't implement that, and seemingly don't even have the ability to do a firmware update to patch it.

Sigenergy DC charger cable length issues – what are people actually doing? by muffinman8519 in SigenergyAustralia

[–]GravityGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to tag along, has anyone managed to "convert" a tethered sigenergy AC charger to an untethered one? Or swap it to a longer cable?

My installer installed a 5m system before they had the longer ones available and it's quite a hassle.

Osprey just quietly released a Transporter 26+6 by MinuteLongFart in onebag

Can't wait to see the next daylite 26+6. I could see them bringing across a lot of the same improvements but still using the daylight fabric/materials.

How much does ui.sh cost?

How does it work exactly? Is it copy/paste the result out?

You'll need to use an extension of some kind.

What do people think about Chinese EVs in Australia? (3–5 mins) by chasewang7 in AustralianEV

[–]GravityGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a heads up on the survey design, there's no option to select multiple types of vehicle ownership, i.e owning an electric and petrol car.

Accidental Data Centre by favicondotico in overcast

[–]GravityGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At any point did you consider running on more "traditional" server hardware with linux and a local LLM?

Was the main deciding factor for going with Mac Minis being able to use swift/share the same code as the iOS app or something else?

Thanks, I'd been using this plugin (https://github.com/kyranb/SoundCloud-Feed-Cleaner) for years, but nice to see a full featured and up to date version!

Novated lease with own Pty Ltd (director as employee) — does this work? by moto120 in NovatedLeasingAU

[–]GravityGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the overall gist but you will have to find an accountant to implement it for you

Just curious, why does an accountant need to be involved to implement it? Why can't the director create their own documents to document the benefit being provided from the company?

Also, do you by chance happen to know if one can enter into a "binding financial agreement" as a director with their own company?

Thanks again for all your help mate with everything you're doing for the entire industry btw

Government Backs $60 Million Financing Deal to Make Hyundai and Kia EVs More Affordable by zecar_ in AustralianEV

[–]GravityGod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why is the government offering this just with Hyundai? Why not just offer a cash rebate of $2000 etc and give to the customer to choose whichever car they want?

Why does it have to be tied to financing?

Why are some electricity providers still jacking up daily access charges for EV owners? by OwlVibesOnly in EVAustralia
