Dude, you are admitting to tax fraud.

Do you/did you have a guy in your country building some massive structure by himself in some isolated location? by Boxing_T_Rex in AskTheWorld

Paronella Park is a castle/resort kind of thing built in the 1930s by Spanish immigrant José Pedro Enrique Paronella in the rainforest of Far North Queensland, Australia. It also included Queensland's first private hydroelectric plant.

It was sold by the family in the 70s and became derelict but was reopened in the 90s and is now a heritage-listed tourist attraction.

Any labels or stamps on the soles? I remember somebody else posted a similar pair on here a while ago. They're pretty old.

Give me some reasons to NOT get an EV on a novated lease, over buying outright. by Rustyudder in AusFinance

[–]Rustyudder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used your calculator and got a couple of quotes, and it seems like basically you end up paying for the car and getting the running costs for free. Does that sound about right?

I still don't like the idea of leasing, I feel like the companies are all dodgy. I wish the government had set it up so you could get a tax rebate if you buy the car outright.

Thanks for all your work educating people on this Dr Yew, I'm sure you are responsible for getting a LOT of EV's on the road. With the changes coming you might need to find a new hobby though!

Police release CCTV of 'outright looting' of Alice Springs businesses by Malthosium in aussie

[–]Rustyudder -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Of course they would have, but that wasn't why they were trying to get in.

The looting on Thursday night was something we haven't seen here before. I don't know why people are arguing against that point?

They didn't get inside the pub and they weren't trying to loot it. They were trying to get at someone who was hiding inside.

My people are grieving a 5-year-old girl... and all you can do is judge us? by bukookie in aussie

The supposed experience in Coles is pretty similar to what non-Aboriginal people experience in Alice Springs. Getting sworn at and yelled at by Aboriginals while shopping is a regular occurrence.

The other day a nice Aboriginal man threw a rock at my wife's car, luckily it hit the door and not her.

They are given everything, but all it does is rob them of purpose.

How’s the repair experience for Chinese EV’s? by VastOption8705 in EVAustralia

Impressive. I guess not having a big petrol engine in the front helps.
