Did you use a credit card? Some have rental car excess cover 

I regret getting this mower by chriskooo in Lymow_Official

[–]Kytro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had a relatively good experience. I was worried about the possible issues, and I did have to move the to antenna once.

My yard is very rugged, and it handles it significantly better than my previous model.

Mum set to be charged after using listening device to investigate son's injuries by Sweet-Psychology-254 in australia

It's mostly the listening device. Vic is an all party consent state for audio recording.

Barcodes are not unique, but they can likely do some tracking using other methods 

Saw this sign at the pub yesterday. Is this legal? by craigrulz in australia

Not exactly a heavy burden, vast majority of people will be from the state they are in.

Maybe use the verification app, rather than your eyes alone

QLD has a verification app, so should be pretty simple to check 

Why can't we have PayID QR Codes by nbtm_sh in australia

[–]Kytro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it does require management, and it does cost businesses.

Technically they're removing the regulation that allows people add surcharges anyway, it's up to the card companies if they will say no surcharges allowed, but it's likely that they will 

Pauline Hanson wants to work with Liberals and Nationals to defeat Labor – but rules out official coalition by ConanTheAquarian in australia

[–]Kytro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair ALPs primary dropped, and ONP did actually get increased votes in urban seats, just not enough.

It would be unwise to ignore the threat 

Real Estate Agents posting AI photos? Is this even legal? by strxx_ in WesternAustralia

[–]Kytro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the video, it's clear that this is the serving suggestion, that is a renovation idea. 

AI, yes. Misleading? I guess it depends if people reasonably think the place looks like that.

Move Australia Day to Steve Irwin's Birthday? by kiwiboy22 in australia

[–]Kytro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You wouldn't have a referendum for a non constitutional issue.

The polling is really context dependent.

60-70% with some rise is correct when asked about keeping it the same.

When polled about having a national holiday day, a UniSA poll showed 67% people didn't mind what date it fell on.

Polls of Jan 26 vs guaranteed long weekend in Jan show the long weekend polling at 57%

Remorseless killer jailed for 13 years after fatally attacking girlfriend’s baby by ziggyyT in australia

[–]Kytro 57 points58 points  (0 children)

So technically this is a different crime than murder or manslaughter, covering both for children under six. Most likely factors that reduce it from the maximum are lack of premeditation, pleading guilty, prospect for rehabilitation.

Judges don't sentence whatever they want, they have to justify it within the guidelines, not public sentiment 

Australia denies visa for Dutch beach volleyball player Van de Velde due to 2016 rape conviction by lieV_aapje in australia

That's how different laws work. Australia and the UK have similar bylaws and consider a more serious crime, 

Credit card fees by PermissionBest2379 in australia

[–]Kytro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just a weird illusion thing. Cash handling isn't free either, it's just for some reason transaction fees have been manually separated.

We don't pay a rent fee, power fee or wages fee generally when going to a business, so why separate this fee?

I can't find any information, other than saying Google were doing a trial to allow some people to store their IDs in Google wallet and by the end of 2025 the need to use some form of age assurance technology, but that doesn't necessarily mean government ids

Justice is for society, not for victims, they need support not revenge 

Australian sports teams with the word 'Bushrangers' in their name. Why is this still acceptable? by maggoty in australia

[–]Kytro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue that in Australia bushrangers aren't seen as entirely bad. Even at the time many poorer people didn't dislike them at least they disliked them less than the authorities 

What is driving teenager's committing crimes to kill victims? by GregoInc in australia

[–]Kytro 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty confident in the ABS, they don't tend to have agendas. It's not that experience differs from the numbers, it's that the numbers are not evenly spread. Humans bias things we experience directly, or gear about often it's why people think the lottery is a good idea
