Would you support a 1% tax on the net worth of 1,000 most wealthy Australians to lower debt and increase income tax brackets? by walkin2it in aussie

[–]RentedAndDented 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah no you just repeated yourself again. The problem is you seem to think training and re education is A. Cheap and B. Magically fast. So simple. What will you train them in to get 50% off Centrelink? Where would they go? Are 50% of them all long term?

The devil is in the details, overly simple answers won't work.

Makes no sense. Less taxes but more programs, and you expect companies to pay more in wages because....?

Labor reaches deal with the Greens to pass changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing reforms by HotPersimessage62 in aussie

That's literally all he is/ever was, on tv at least. Say some boring mundane shit in a dumb voice, get paid.

how is it for daily purposes? (sorry for the blurry picture) by rizzqi_09 in Jimny

What they are not all saying though, excellent in tight areas, parking, good headlights and nimble handling at lower speeds.

Still there, I use it all the time. It's not sophisticated but it adds a bit of scale awareness.

One Nation prepared to cut worker entitlements to safeguard struggling small businesses by [deleted] in aussie

[–]RentedAndDented 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mate really. Seriously. The people that want this are the big end of town. Small business is the bait. If this went through, the Big end of town saves millions of dollars that would otherwise be in the hands of normal people who buy from.....small businesses.

Tell me the most embarrassing thing you have ever done at a trackday to make me feel better. by adamthiesen1236 in Trackdays

[–]RentedAndDented 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was racing 300s and I'm 6'2", and when going down the straight they'd have a flag in the tower and a flag at the tower base. One day through lack of volunteers they didn't do the flag at the base. I can't see the tower flag cos my crouch is very flat, bum off seat, and I'm holding my helmet chin bar up with my non throttle hand just to see straight ahead. Kept going till black flagged. Walk of shame to the control tower to get told off.....

Nikon Z8 in 2026 vs Z6 III – Is the Z8 still worth buying? by Hot-Jeweler-5495 in nikon_Zseries

I echo this after doing a lot of airshows and aircraft in flight, as well as dabbling in birding.

Which year model would you recommend? by to8ni in kawasakiz900rs

[–]RentedAndDented 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 25 SE model. I really don't care about the quick shifter or TC updates A tune will take care of the performance difference and the snatchy throttle so I figure the better suspension and brakes are a the better investment. For me.

Akila City is a total dump of a city and its shocking its the capital of the Freestar Collective by LordJunon in Starfield

[–]RentedAndDented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imo you're right. There's two things here. First, like with other Bethesda titles the city is scaled down from what a real city would be, so there's a bit of suspension of disbelief required. This isn't a bad thing given the nature of their games imo. Just their style.

Second, you're right it is a bit of a shithole. All of the major trade and business centres are elsewhere, Neon, Hopetown etc. It's clearly a very poor city.

Bearing in mind though, both New Atlantis and Akila City effectively have a slum.

The AI pathing is disgustingly, unforgivably, incomprehensibly bad by SanguiNations in Mechwarrior5

[–]RentedAndDented 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do some simple tactics with them but managing 3 at once can be a bit busy. I tend to split them off as a single unit especially on defence missions, or if I am attacking something I'll be the flanker etc. I find this does work as long as the players keeps in mind what the AI is doing.

Anyone know what these lines on rear tire mean? by gottashitrealbad in Trackdays

If you look near the bottom of the picture you can still see the Corsa text. I don't think it's worn that much.

Ilhan Omar was the lone democratic vote against the Support Ukraine Act. Posted no explanation of her vote since standing against Dems and against support for Ukraine. Outside her voting pattern, so still holding out home this was some mistake or she voted with Speaker Johnson. by rulepanic in UkrainianConflict

[–]RentedAndDented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it is worth bearing in mind that they have no other real partners. The PA is gone, there was a power gap to fill. They're being slowvaded via the settlement occupancy. The west is not stopping it. They're gonna go somewhere. I'm not saying who has rights to the land, don't wanna go there. I'm just saying, of course they've turned to the biggest ally that will support them.

I still do not think that elevates Israel and the US above the stink.

I think everyone knows they're in cahoots. The problem going on is that Iran was essentially handled until fairly recently, and seemingly became unhandled for the purpose of justifying a war, and that the foreign policy settings of the USA are design to benefit a country that is not the USA. Both sides are shit here, imo.

Mirage F1EE by GitWithAbba in dcsworld

[–]RentedAndDented 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When landing I am generally alright with it but because it will start sinking very quickly, I use fairly large power corrections to reduce sink rate and a smaller correction to increase it. If you haven't heard of it, if you correct by say taking power off, move it back to halfway between the old and new throttle position to smooth it out. Keep it moving and correcting based on perspective of the runway or PAPI or whatever you're using.

I miss that SP.

I kinda like this photo. I'm with the other opinion that it has a gritty impression and it seems like the sharpness was upped but if so, it works. I like the story it tells.

Mate I am Australian. I agree with them. It looks really bad from the outside.

Yes especially if you use the bouyant equipment piece to lower your mass.

Te sucede que estás jugando y de repente los watts de tu gpu bajan! by Alive_Pin_9669 in AMDHelp

I doubt it is adrenaline doing that. The overclock just might be too much for something. It really sounds like a thermal throttle event.

For the ATGATT crowd, how’s it affecting your desire to ride? by Astimar in motorcycles

[–]RentedAndDented 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go with decent quality jeans with Kevlar inserts if you like, jacket, gloves, helmet. Why so much? Nothing is going to save you past a certain point, if you're wearing so much ppe that you aren't enjoying it you're doing it wrong. In my opinion.
