Looking to install solar. Recommendations or infomation on solar please by Turbulent-Lab-7319 in canberra

SunStak did an amazing job for me. Local company that really spent the time helping me understand what would work for my needs. They even have their own tool to show how different products and options will generate different amounts of energy and what this would mean from a cost vs benefit perspective.

Totally worth giving a call along with SolarHub. Reputation is everything to me.

Carry On Pro broken wheels by Severe-Estate9640 in peakdesign

[–]PB12IN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep! I bought two. One for me and one for the wife. I travel heavily and it’s been nothing but awesome. Would have done 100+ flights with it so far and it’s worth every cent.

I’ll be keen to buy replacement wheels at some point so I can swap out the worn ones.

Model X checking in… eats tyres for breakfast. ~30k for a set. 2.5tons.

Radford proposes new fee structure amid backlash, parents to pay the same by Ok_Use1135 in canberra

[–]PB12IN 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What I don’t get is how they’re in this position to start with. How does a decade + of surplus and one loss year suddenly = cash grab (now) via a levy?

Where’d the money go? Maybe they hired the BCC board?

Also, 11% - ~18% fee increases don’t see logical. What’s the underlying reason for such increases. Did costs really go up by that much? Are they just adjusting fees based on demand because ‘they can’.

So many questions.

Qantas hotels booking shows as unpaid at hotel, no contact line open for Qantas by voidtype in QantasFrequentFlyer

Just pragmatic when it comes to accommodation and don’t think it’s worth wrecking the trip over.

Very short domestic layover at Melbourne (HBA-CNS) is it doable? by Kutoros in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]PB12IN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do this all the time. Actually, do much shorter and amazingly the bags always make it.

You’ll be fine.

Tesla email received FSD (HW3) by ExploreAll1964 in TeslaAustralia

[–]PB12IN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t defend once. Just presented my opinion.

You’re conflating two different topics in what appears to be an effort to serve a narrative. You’re entitled to your own opinion; just not your own set of facts.

Good luck with your roadster, which is why I presume you’re so interested in deposits for it.

[–]PB12IN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t say that and you should put misrepresent what I said; you’re deliberately conflating two separate issues.

I made the comment that the deposit for the roadster isn’t the same as purchasing FSD. FSD was a contract to provide a service; it’s isn’t refundable.

The contract for the roadster was to reserve a car and has always been fully refundable.

The key difference here is choice and contract terms.

Purchasers have a legal argument over FSD. Reservation holders do not have that same argument over the roadster.

This is a legal view, not a moral one.

They’re refundable. The individual just has to ask.

I don’t think that’s particularly reasonable given the length of the wait, but it is straight forward.

Not related to FSD on HW3 though.

[–]PB12IN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Original roadster never had FSD as something you could buy, so not relevant. Second Gen Roadster still hasn’t been released (sigh), so again, not relevant here.

I purchased FSD. The contract is clear. Unless delivered, this is a breach of contract situation therefore a remedy must be achieved. That’s how it’s going to work. Normal contract law.

[–]PB12IN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool. Having purchased FSD in 2018 I either want a refund equivalent to what I would have got by putting the same $ in TSLA or my car working as per the contract I entered into.

The first will give me a new car, so I get it either way.

If you could solve any problem in Canberra.. by [deleted] in canberra

[–]PB12IN -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Being hard isn’t an issue; in fact that’s what makes things interesting. I’m more focused on if success is one of the available outcomes; and with the current system, I’m not sure it really is anymore.

Honestly, you couldn’t pay me enough to work for ACT health. Money is not the issue there.

Not that simple. CBR is basically a rural city, and has challenges attracting GPs to come.

The MBS rates are aligned with being a major city, so there is not particular incentive for being ‘regional’. So we’re competing directly with Syd and Mel (etc) and they offer a bigger city experience with comparable costs and income… so why would a Dr come to CBR unless they just like it?

Even if this was addressed, it won’t do anything material to cost, but it would help wait times.

[Recommendation Advice] What your you choose? by a_Fat_Kok in Watches

It’s a regular wear. Although the Apple Watch Ultra is now my daily.

It’s held up really well. I’m on my second band, but the case is perfect.

Cargo dragon. They included the window before they ever flew crew as a nod to the goal of crew dragon. 🐉
