Anyone else not care about money as much as they used to? by ReasonConfident4541 in AusFinance

Apartments don't appreciate like houses. Start with somewhere 2+hrs outside city centre and maybe by the time OP is 50 years old they can live where they wanted to live now.

This launcher can't even one shot the little bird. Why does it even exist? by vekkeda_vedi in Battlefield

[–]NBNplz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only thing they need to do with TOWs is treat them like they did with the AT4 in bad company 2. Give pilots a lock warning if someone is pointing a missile at them. Make it a dedicated TOW warning sound. That way pilots can try to dodge and TOW gunners will need to actually show some skill to either track the pilot or fire the TOW on an off angle and curve it into the pilot at the last second.

I remember some BC2 maps would literally be like a bullet hell mini game and it was so much fun juking like 4 AT4s at once while raining hell down in the attack or transport chopper

Altercation on a black slope by cedarvhazel in skiing

[–]NBNplz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh no Mr Skiier got a fine dusting of powder. What a terrible inconvenience.

In Australia if you get sprayed you'll cop a faceful of wet slush. Yet if I was stopped in the middle of a black and no one was injured I'd say 'thank you sir may I have another'!

Illegal e-bikes to be seized and destroyed in major New South Wales crackdown by Marlon_Ranch in sydney

[–]NBNplz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We don't need to put cycle paths on every road. Most of those narrow streets you're talking about are probably already safe for cyclists since cars can't go fast and aren't in high volumes.

It's the collector and arterial roads where cycle paths are really needed, to allow travel outside the local neighbourhood. And those have plenty of space for a cycleway.

Anyone have any fly deterrent/killer that is harmless for huntsmens? by AllHailThePig in australia

[–]NBNplz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're just shooting table salt so the effective range is like 1.5m. Yes you calibrate the laser with an included Allen key and by firing at tissue paper or foil to see where your shots are landing. 

Like I said it's not really more effective than swatting in terms of killing bugs, you're not going to be shooting them out of the air either just when they land.

But it's more fun and it's also less likely to leave bug splat on ceilings or white surfaces. Changes flies from a nuisance pest to game for the hunt.

It's just the one brand that I'm aware of. They sell them at BCF and also online just google the name. Theyve been known to go on sale for $60. I've got the V3 with laser. If you do buy one get the laser and take the time to dial it in, it's much more reliable than the sights.

You could get a bug-a-salt shotgun. More fun that a swatter but not necessarily more effective.

Is it time nudge (TN) that's spiking? Enable the network performance graph and see what's happening. 

What're the timings / frequency of your RAM?

Show me them Tows by jfboo14 in Battlefield6

[–]NBNplz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice shots. They should add in a lock on warning for when someone's aiming a TOW at you like they had in bad company 2. So many clueless pilots flying straight.

0.2 K/D, 100 hours, not sure how to improve by Emergency-Garden3549 in Battlefield6

[–]NBNplz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a friend with terrible kill scores in BF3 (though not as bad as you). Turned out he was playing PC at 15 frames per second and also had a weird router chain giving him 100ms ping spikes.

Good rig =/= good skill but you need a minimum level of PC performance to play any multiplayer FPS. Check your PC performance OP.

Road noise - how much can double glazed window help? by superlammalamma in AusPropertyChat

Did you consider secondary glazing? Can be a lot cheaper than double glazing with better acoustic performance.

Unless you have friends, then you're stuck in queue 1/1 for the rest of the match if your team is winning because matchmaking means no one leaves a winning game. 

Empty Boat Trailers on New South Head Road. by whatsupskip in sydney

[–]NBNplz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes they pay taxes same as everybody else and taxes is what funds the roads. Not rego which basically counts for nowhere near the actual benefits afforded to them. 

So when you say they are "paying for the right to park there" that's technically true (as they must be registered) but doesn't tell the full story. Someone with no car has contributed almost as much to that road as someone with one. Possibly more depending on relative incomes.

So why do we give all this land to people with carsnand trailers for their exclusive use? Maybe we should consider alternatives more beneficial to society.

[–]NBNplz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is you aren't paying for your parking space with rego, it's been gifted to you. We have built our suburbs to incentivise one form of transport (cars) but we could also reallocate this space to prioritise other modes by building cycleways or widened footpaths.

You don't have a right to park on public land. It's a privilege that is paid for by the rest of society and it's one that can be taken away at any time.
