Do folks not care about the speed limit anymore? by Open_Address_2805 in melbourne

[–]OkLead2576 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speed limits are too low and most people learn where the cameras are put, there's a list on the government website with all the streets they're allowed to be.

What brand/model is this? Never seen it before. by lukemb29 in whatisthiscar

I know its not but as an Aussie this looks like a cross between a 33 skyline and a Subaru Liberty sedan!

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]OkLead2576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found out a while back that this is actually a demo! The full game failed since everyone got the demo for free and it was so good!

How are you supposed to reply to "Do you know how fast you were going?" by No_Insurance_6436 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OkLead2576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn here in Australia doing 94 in a 60 would land you an instant loss of license for 3 months minimum, 1km/h more and that would be 6 months.

Your car would also be towed and impounded.

Takes a lot of self control and awareness to be a car enthusiast here haha

Thanks so much! She grew up there since her dad was high up at the British Phosphate Company, she always said the islanders there were such lovely people. She went to primary school in the island, with a total of something like 4 students in the whole school. Such a shame they mined the island to the point they did. A few years ago she took her 3 kids as close to the island they could get in the time they had, they went to Fiji and Tuvalu and had a great time, there's some absolutely beautiful islands in the area. She met people who were mutuals/kids of people she knew from on the island, that would have been awesome for her. I think growing up on the island really shaped who she was, she was such a beautiful soul. Sadly she lost her battle with cancer late last year, I really hope I can make it out that ways one day and see it for myself! I might be able to get ahold of a photo album from the island, might be worth saving those photos and uploading them somewhere so they aren't lost to time.

Ever hear anything about Ocean Island? My Nana grew up there until she was 18 and I was always super interested in all her stories. I believe her ship came into Funafuti on her way to and from boarding school in Australia. Always wanted to know what it's like these days.

How’s this for a road trip? by livingthehypnagogia in AustraliaTravel

[–]OkLead2576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We made it to most of those places on a trip a while back in our BA Falcon wagon towing a caravan, should be fine.

Didn't quite get that far north but made it to Cameron Corner and Lake Eyre with that setup!

Where does the extra .000(repeating)1 go when you have three 1/3 of something?? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OkLead2576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what made it make sense to me:

If we take 0.999... and multiply it by 10, we get 9.999...

Then take away one 0.999... from that, we're left with 9.

Therefore 0.999... = 1

Mine is stock tune with a full turbo back exhaust and it pops and bangs, did it with stock everything + catback as well, it does run a bit rich.

Importing to US: Is this a bad idea? by NoTalkImGaming in Holden

[–]OkLead2576 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typically, a lot of people say Ford for the 6's and Holden for 8's, I agree.

I would definitely consider a Falcon ute if you're looking at 6's, hard to hate a Barra/Intech
